"The law of passive obedience; or Christian submission to personal injuries: wherein is shown, that the several texts of Scripture, which command the entire submission of servants or slaves to their masters, cannot authorize the latter to exact an involuntary servitude, nor, in the least degree, justify the claims of modern slaveholders. By Granville Sharp. [Three lines from Colossians] Published in London in the year 1776."--p. [95]-132.
