WHITGIFT, JOHN, Archbishop of Canterbury. The Defense of the Aunswere to the Admonition, against the Replie of T[homas]. C[artwright]. Title within woodcut ornamental border. [24], 812, [11] pages.

first edition; issue with the errata corrected. Whitgift's refutation of the presbyterian views of the Puritan Thomas Cartwright formed part of an exchange of polemics provoked by Cartwright's 1572 Admonition to the Parliament, "an attack on the very foundations of the Elizabethan church so extreme as to make it a seditious libel" (ODNB). STC 25430.5.
