A vindication of the Athanasian creed, in respect to the explicit explanation of the three distinct persons in the Godhead; And of the incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ. By Francis Lloyd, A.M. rector of Trotterscliffe, Kent. These Catholick declarations (speaking of the three creeds) of our belief, delivered by them, who were so much nearer than we are unto the first publication thereof, and continuing needful for all men to know; these confessions, as testimonies of our continuance in the same faith to this present day, we rather use than any Gloss or paraphrase devised by ourselves; which, though it were to the same effect, notwithstanding could not be of the like authority and credit. Hooker's ecclesiastical polity.
