Anniversary

Probably for anniversary of gunpowder plot, as it discusses danger of papists.

The sermon discusses the prosperity of England under Elizabeth I and economic problems. There is also a discussion of abuses in the Colleges. See the Lambeth Palace Library online catalogue for further details.

There are additional red marks in pencil throughout. The occasion of the sermon is made evident on f. 197r; here, the preacher celebrates 'the greatest Act of Grace & Goodnesse [never to be forgotten]' which King James II conferred upon his people. Mention is also made of 'this Anniversary call for ye Praises of all his Subjects'.
