A looking-glass for religious princes: or, The character and work of Josiah, delivered in a sermon upon 2 Kings XXIII.XXV. The substance whereof was preached April 5. 1691. at Pershore in Worcester-shire. Wherein they may see, that those princes are only eminent in the sight of God, who are truly religious, and turn to the Lord with all their heart. That there is more required of such princes, than their own private assent and consent to the true religion. That religious princes cannot be capable of a greater honour in this world, than to be the instruments of a Godly reformation among their subjects. And, that the word of God alone is the rule, to which both they and their people must attend in all matters relating to religion. By Richard Claridge, M.A. and then rector of Peopleton in the County of Worcester.
