A Sermon Intended as a Dissuasive from the Practice of Duelling

Book English United Kingdom

Anonymous work

S-block staging entry validated for model fit. Imported from staging batch duell-thimm-s, source entry 1975. Anonymous sermon; the source line is truncated before unrelated author and Shakespeare cross-references, so no date is asserted. Individually bibliographically reviewed in phase 93 against the complete source entry and, where needed, independent catalogue evidence.
