A Treatise partly Theological, and partly Political, containing some few Discourses, to prove that the Liberty of Philosophizing
(that is Making Use of Natural Reason) may be allow’d without any prejudice to Piety, or to the Peace of any Common-wealth;
And that the Loss of Public Peace and Religion it self must necessarily follow, where such a Liberty of Reasoning is taken
away . . . Translated out of
Latin.
