    A true narrative of the proceedings at the sessions holden for London and Middlesex, at Justice-hall in the Old-bayly, the 10th and 11th days of May, 1676 : Setting forth the tryal and condemnation of the man for having several wives, and the woman for having several husbands: and other most material passages. And also an account of the tryal of the woman who was arraigned as being accessary to the sacrilegious robbery of St. Giles's-Church: with the tryal of the man for buying the plate of her. And likewise how many are condemn'd, how many burn'd in the hand, and transported.
