Description

Shakespeare asked, "To be, or not to be?" Likewise, the author of this work asks a similar question of Puritan authors: "To please nor not to please God?" The Puritans eternal struggle is embodied by this singular phrase that the Puritans used in an attempt to decipher the rectitude of their own actions.
