The Religion of Protestants a safe way to Salvation
I lack a date for first publication of "The Religion of Protestants a Safe Way to Salvation". I have found one date which may be correct. that date is 1638 but is not marked as first edition or printing. The copy I have read is 1719, Seventh edition, clearly a posthumous edition (also with quite a few misprints, I suspect that a few lines are missing between the unnumbered pages = last of Signature B and first of Signature C).Seniorsag (talk) 14:45, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
 * If one may humbly suggest, the University of Michigan has the edition of M.D.C.XXXVIII on line. I see nothing to suggest that it is a reprint.  Since I cannot tell what are the various signatures, perhaps you would like to see whether it has the text you suspect is missing? J S Ayer (talk) 04:26, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
 * On the 1st edition's publication date and  see Pierre des Maizeaux's 1725 An historical and critical account of the life and writings of Wm. Chillingworth pp.115, 141, 221-2 or the easier-to-read 1863 edition entitled The life of William Chillingworth (or the even clearer digital copy pp.138, 152, 237.
