A Supplication For The Beggars is a book written by Simon Fish in 1871. The book is a satirical piece that criticizes the corruption and hypocrisy of the church and the government during the 16th century in England. The title of the book is a reference to a real-life event where a group of beggars presented a petition to King Henry VIII asking for better treatment. In the book, Fish uses the same format to present a mock petition from the beggars to the King, in which they ask for the church and government to be reformed. The book also includes a dialogue between a beggar and a friar, in which the friar is exposed as a greedy and immoral person. The book was considered controversial at the time of its publication and was banned by the church. However, it remains an important piece of literature that sheds light on the social and political issues of the time.With A Supplication To Our Most Sovereign Lord King Henry The Eighth, A Supplication Of The Poor Commons, And The Decay Of England By The Great Multitude Of Sheep.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
