To the supreame iudicature of this our free nation; the Parliament of England. The humble declaration of many of the burdened, but well-affected inhabitants of the county of Kent, shewing their grounds for their non-payment, and their grievances in being forct to the payment of tythes. Or some citizens of Zion vindicating the immunitie of Jerusalem under the gospel (by charter from the King of Kings) from the payment of tythes, in which liberty they desire to stand. Or tythes unpaid under the gospel no sacriledge; tythmongers by the law of the gospel non-suited; the pulpit mists being scattered, and the clergie mens tookes of account being clisped, they appeare no debt by the statute-law of King Jesus, they being but a ragge of the vaile of Moses, a strange offering under the ministration of Christ. Whose churches are not robbed by not paying, but by having tythes forct from them.
