John Bunyan hath devilishly and perniciously abstained from coming to church to hear Divine service, and is a common upholder of several unlawful meetings and conventicles, to the disturbance and distraction of the good subjects of this kingdom, contrary to the laws of our sovereign lord the King.
Indictment, John Bunyan (1628-1688), author of Pilgrim's Progress, imprisoned from 1661 to 1672.
