Title: Presbitry anatomized, or, Two dialogues : the first betwixt a Jesuite, and Presbyerian preacher; the second betwixt a Presbyterian preacher in England, and one in Scotland, 1690.

Manuscript, on paper, in a single hand, of an Episcopal tract against Presbyterianism. Dedicated to Thomas Smith, the Bishop of Carlisle, the work attacks Presbyterianism as "the Bane of Britain," disparages Cameronianism, and draws sharp distinctions between English and Scottish Presbyterians. The text is followed by three copies of sermons by Benjamin Calamy (his Discourse about a Scrupulous Conscience), John Tillotson, and John Dolben, Archbishop of York.

Godolphin, Sidney Godolphin, Earl of, 1645-1712. Letterbook, 1684 Apr 15 to Aug 19.

Title: Letterbook, 1684 Apr 15 to Aug 19.

Manuscript, in mutliple hands, of a collection of copies of 27 business letters by Godolphin to various correspondents, in his capacity as Secretary of State in 1684, concerning such domestic affairs as official appointments; city charters; and infractions against the law. The collection begins with letters to the Peter Mews, Bishop of Winchester, and to John Dolben, Archbishop of York, thanking them for his appointment and referring to the resignation of Sir Leoline Jenkins. The volume also includes other letters to Dolben concerning the appointment of the Recorder of York. These are followed by a letter to the Commanders of the Admiralty regarding a Spanish ship that plundered an English vessel; a letter to the attorney general, Sir Robert Sawyer, regarding an enclosed list of schoolmasters reportedly keeping schools in London without license; a letter to Robert Bertie, Earl of Lindsey, informing him of the King's displeasure at hearing his intentions to challenge John Manners, Duke of Rutland to a duel; and two letters ordering the capture of Captain Samuel Fuller. The rest of the volume was used as a scrapbook in the 19th century, and most of the volume (170 f. in all) contains engravings, both serious and satirical and some hand-colored, cut from contemporary magazines and newspapers, as well as several original drawings in pen, pencil, and watercolor. The collection includes many ship scenes and pastoral scenes, as well as children playing; exotic animals; portraits; statues and vases; architecture; the working class; women; and soldiers. Among the engravings is one after Bartolozzi, identified on the page opposite as the first attempt at engraving by William Chaughton, aged 17, late a ploughboy, and in 1787 a protege of Sir Joseph Banks.
