Great find!

I attached it as a PDF to download to your computer in case the website disappears as so many have in the past.

Good idea. Thanks!

Seems to be almost entirely an anti-Prot catechism ... based primarily on citations from Sacred Scripture (given that it's all the Prots were accepting).

Given that time in England, the catechism probably had to be written that way, to combat the Protestant errors to which Catholics were exposed incessantly.

More recently, Radio Replies was much the same way.
