III. OF ANTICHRIST AND HIS MEYNEE.
Now first printed from a Manuscript in the Library of Trinity

EXTRACTS FROM THE PROSPECTUS.
"The Tracts here collected are now, for the first time, printed.
They are interesting as being, perhaps, the latest of Wycklyffe's
writings, and as expressing, it may be presumed, his matured
opinions and judgement, on the important subjects of which they
treat. One of them, the Treatise _On the Church and its Members_,
contains internal evidence of having been composed within the last
year of the Reformer's life: the others, from their close
connexion with this, in style and subject-matter, were probably
written at the same time."
