The Representation Examined; Being Remarks on the State of Religion in England

London: Printed for A. Baldwin, at the Oxford-Arms-Inn, in Warwick Lane, 1711. Quarto. 12 pages, The unknown author of this tract states that the laws of the Church of England against religious dissent cause more harm than good. The common people cannot attend a dissenting group on Sundays, hence are given to races and sports on what should be a day of worship. The suppression of religious printed items not approved by them does not prevent all sorts of things spoken openly which may condemn the Church of England. The writer notes those items printed without permission still are sold and the costs show their desirability (apparently arguing that censorship doesn't work) unbound, stitched.
