A Historical and Law Treatise against the Jews and Judaism.
[London, Printed for R. Baldwin, [1720].
'A historical and law treatise against the Jews and Judaism: Shewing that by the ancient establish'd laws of the land, no Jew hath any right to live in England, no[t] to appear without Yellow Badges upon his or her upper garment; that none of the Rabbies of the Jews shall upon pain of death, pervert any Christian to Judaism; that no Jew shall cohabit with a Christian woman; that no Jew shall be sworn upon the holy evangelist, nor be admitted to swear upon any other Christian translation; no Jew shall bring his action against a Christian but in the Queen's name; no Jew's widdow shall adminster, but the right of adminstration is in the Queen; no Jews synagogue shall be errected in England, but all such shall be suppres'd; and lastly, that the return of the Jews after their total expulsion, render them all uncapable of receiving any benefit by our law. Together with a consutation of the two arguments us'd by some for the re-admission of the Jews.'
