Boston: Printed by G. Rogers, for S. Eliot in Cornhill, 1741. 30, [2 blanks] pp. Disbound, with a reinforced spine. Lacks the half title, but with the final blank. Else Very Good.

An early, scarce American imprint. The Charge was given by Reverend Cushing of Salisbury, and the Right Hand of Fellowship by Reverend Lowell of Newbury. An errata appears at page 30. Parsons warns Reverend Webster to set a good example. "There is great Joy in Hell, when a Leader in Christ's Army is overthrown."
