More Particularly Shewing, I. That Popery is a False and Unscriptural Religion. II. That it is opposite to the Civil Constitution and Liberty of this Kingdom. III. That it is a Religion, which has hitherto been propagated and nourished only by Blood. IV. That the Penal Laws against it, in Scotland, were not founded in Persecution, but in Self-Defence. V.

With a postscript, Giving a short Account of the Popish Bill, Lately passed in Ireland: and an appendix Containing a Copy of the above Two Acts
