    A suitable present for every free-born Englishman or, the people's antient and just liberties asserted, in the trial of William Penn and William Mead, at the sessions held at the Old-Bailey, in London, the 1st, 3d, 4th and 5th of Sept. 1670, against the most arbitrary Procedure of that Court. To which is added, a rehearsal of the most material parts our [sic] Great Charter (which is the great Bulwark of British Liberty), with the Formalities of Grant; and also the Curse, which the Clergy were directed to pronounce against all Breakers thereof. Likewise some useful observations; together with Judge Keeling's case, and a recital of the Bill of Rights. The Whole absolutely necessary to be known by every Englishman, especially at a Time when our Rights and Privileges have been openly invaded.

    William Penn | Date: MDCCLXXI. [1771]
