Concordia discors, or The dissonant harmony of sacred publique oathes, protestations, leagues, covenants, ingagements, lately taken by many time-serving saints, officers, without scruple of conscience;. making a very unpleasant consort in the ears of our most faithfull oath-performing, covenant-keeping God, and all loyal consciencious subjects; sufficient to create a dolefull Hell, and tormenting horror in the awakned consciences of all those, who have taken, and violated them too, successively, without any fear of God, men, devils, or Hell..
