An anonymous tract discussing the increasingly convoluted distinctions between the factions of 'high-church' and 'low-church' emerging within the Church of England during the early eighteenth century period. The author notes that 'some very discerning Men suspect a Snake in the Grass, and that all this Noise about High and Low-Church, whatever was the Original of it, is now improv'd into a mere State Faction, and signifies no more than Whig and Tory'.
