To all which is Prefix’d, Some Account of the Liberties taken with Clarendon’s History before it came to the Press, such Liberties as make it Doubtful, What Part of it is Clarendon’s, and what Not.

To which is prefix'd, A Large vindication of the Author against the Groundless Charge of partiality. Proving, That the Reverend Doctors, and others who charg'd him with it, are themselves, of all Men, the most Partial. By Mr. Oldmixon.
