A modest plea, for an equal common-wealth, against monarchy. : In which the genuine nature, and true interest of a free-state, is briefly stated; its consistency with a national clergie, hereditary nobility, and mercenary lawyers, is examined; together with the expediency of an agrarian and rotation of offices asserted. Also, an apology for younger brothers, the restitution of gavil-kinde, and relief of the poor. With a lift at tythes, and reformation of the laws and universities. All accommodated to publique honour and justice, without injury to any mans propriety; and humbly tendered to the Parliament. /
