The unnatural father: or the dutiful son's reward. Shewing in the first part, how a rich merchant in Dorsetshire having two sons, the eldest which was the most dutifull, was seldom suffer'd in his presence and when he was, he was sure of being Kick`d & abused, and at last was turn`d out of Doors. How in the Second Part, the youngest Son, which was the most Stubborn, perverse and Wickedest youth, was the Fathers chiefest delight and Care, but for a Harlot's sake kill`d a Man, which oblig`d his father to Mortgage his whole Estate rather than suffer such disgrace in his family. In the last Part, how the poor forsaken Orphan trusting in God`s goodness & Mercy, Cross`d the Seas, where he Married a fortune worth Ten Thousand Pounds, and just return`d at the critical Minute as to the succouring his distressed Parent in the time of his greatest affliction.
printed and sold by S. Hobbins, at the Maidenhead, in New-Somerset-Street, adjoining to White-Chapel-Bars
