Barclay, Robert Anarchy of the ranters and other libertines London  1733

Barclay, Robert. The anarchy of the ranters and other libertines, the hierarchy of the Romanists and other pretended churches, equally refused and refuted, in a two-fold apology for the church and people of God called in derision Quakers. Wherein they are vindicated from those that accuse them of disorder and confusion on the one hand, and from such as calumniate them with tyranny and imposition on the other: shewing, that as the true and pure principles of the Gospel are restored in their testimony; so is also the antient apostolick order of the church of Christ re-established among them, and setled upon its right basis and foundation. London: printed by the assigns of J. Sowle, 1733. viii, 91(9) pp. 8vo, recent wrappers. Second London edition; first published in 1676, and reprinted in Dublin in 1726, and in Philadelphia, by Benjamin Franklin, in 1757. An important essay by a leading Quaker apologist. Not all copies have the 8 pages of bookseller's advertisements at the end. A few margins a bit dusty; old inscription of a Quaker Meeting in Poole, in Dorset. CBEL II, 1648.
