With all the vocal and instrumental musick.

In which will be represented a grand view of the temple; the
transparent alter-pice, shewing the vision of Constantine
the Great, before his battle against the Christians; the
bloody cross in the air inscrib'd about in golden
characters, in hoc signe vinces.  The decorations are
intirely new and proper.
