In the first yeare of his Majesties raigne before he was solemnly annointed and crowned Watson and Cleark two Romish Priests conspired with others some noble men some Knights and some Gentlemen to surprize King Iames and Prince Henry presuming on forraigne forces for aid and assistance thereby to alter religion and to set up such Officers of State as they thought best But their plot before it came to execution was discovered they condemned some of them executed others spared thorow the Kings clemency 3. Garnet and Tresmond Iesuites with Catesby and Tresham before mentioned notwithstanding the death of Queene Elizabeth when they saw that King Iames defended the same faith continued to solicite the King of Spaine to send an army into England to joyne with the forces of Papists here for extirpation of Religion But the King of Spaine being then in treaty with the King of England about peace refused to hearken to any such motion Thereupon they together with other unnaturall and traiterous subjects plotted the matchlesse mercilesse devilish and damnable gun-powder-treason whereof before § 67.

Of the troubles of England from the Conquest to Queene Elizabeths time 1. WIlliam Duke of Normandie surnamed The Conquerour 1066. Oct. 14 got the crowne with much bloud having slaine Harold the King immediately before him two of his brothers and 67974 English men He changed many of the lawes and customes of England He defaced many Churches and depopulated sundry townes to make a forrest for beasts where two of his owne sonnes were strangely slaine The Danes to recover the Crowne in his dayes invaded the land burnt Yorke and slew 3000 men The Scots likewise about the same time made great spoile in England and spared nor sex nor age Much trouble was in the land all his time Being in France and there setting a towne on fire he rode so neare the fire as his horse with the heat therof gave such a leap as it brake the rimme of his belly whereof he died in the 21. yeare of his raigne and 64 of his age Being dead he was denied buriall till much mediation was made and a great composition paid 2. William Rusus son to the Conquerour having an elder 1087. Sep. 9. brother then living came not without difficulty to the crowne He had much warre both with his elder brother Robert and also with his younger brother Henry In his time were many warres with the Scots and Welch much English bloud spilt and himselfe casually slaine by one of his subjects with an arrow shot at a stag in the 13. yeare of his raigne and 43 of his age His corps were caried towards Winchester in a colliers cart 3. Henry 1. youngest sonne of William the Conquerour 1100. Aug. 1. put Robert his elder brother by the crowne whence arose many broiles He getting the mastery over his brother imprisoned him and cruelly put out his eyes He had much warre with the Welch All his children but Mawde his daughter with 160 persons were drowned together He died of a surfeit in the 36. yeare of his raigne and 65. of his age 4. Stephen with perjury usurped the kingdome from the 1135. Dec. 2. fore-said Mawde Besides some warres abroad he had continuall civill jarres at home by reason whereof he was taken prisoner and forced in the end to leave the heire of his opposite to be his successour He died of an Iliacke passion mixed with the Emeroids in the 19. yeare of his raigne His body after it was interred was taken out of the lead and cast into a river 5. Henry 2. sonne of the foresaid Mawd thorow his incontinency 1154. Oct. 25. with Rosamond set his owne wife and children against him which caused perpetuall unquietnesse in his kingdome In one battell at Edmondbury 20000 were taken and slaine He adopted his sonne who laboured to disthrone him in the government and having much embroiled the kingdome he grew so discontented as he curst his children and the day of his birth and in much perplexity ended his daies in the 35. yeare of his

to be put to death so as all his raigne death and slaughter never ceased till himselfe was slaine and brought like an hog all bare on an horses backe to his grave in the 3. yeare of his raigne and about the 40. of his age 19. Henry 7 the next living heire of the house of Lancaster having vanquished Richard 3. obtained the Crowne 2485. Aug. 22. maried Elizabeth the heire of the house of Yorke and therby united those two distracted houses Yet was not his raigne without troubles The Crowne being gotten with hazard and much bloud he was maligned by the Dutches of Burgundy who set up first a Lambert then a Perkin Warbeck to disquiet him Warres he had in France Insurrections there were in the North Rebellions in Cornwall besides many grievances which his Subjects complained of He died in the 24. yeare of his raigne and 52. of his age 20. Henry 8. sonne of Henry 7. by a just title came to a 1509. Apr. 22. setled throne He that will read Sir Walter Raleighs preface to his history shall see enough if not too much of the tronbles of this Kings times He ended his reigne and life in the 38. yeare of his raigne and 56. of his age 21. Edward 6. sonne of Henry 8. in his childhood came 1546. Ian. 28. to the crowne yet in his daies the brightnesse of the Gospell shined forth but so as there wanted not clouds of troubles The Kingdome being engaged in warre with France and Scotland the country troubled with insurrections in Norfolke and Devonshire and the Court and Counsell distracted into faction whereby the Kings two uncles the Lord Protector and Lord Admirall came to violent deaths which hastened or hindred not the Kings and that in the 7. yeare of his raigne and 17. of his age 22. Mary eldest daughter to Henry 8. came with much 1553. Iul. 6. difficulty to the Crowne Another Queene was first proclaimed at London But that storme lasted not long for 9 dayes after at London also was Mary proclaimed Queene As for the continuance of her raigne some may remember most have heard and all may read how dangerous and dolefull those smoaky daies were Many hundreds were burnt then for the Gospell sake many more were forced to fly their country and exile themselves Callis that for very many yeares before had appertained to the English was lost which losse is thought to make so dead a wound in her heart as it could never be healed In the last period of Queene Maries daies many imprisoned and adjudged to the fire for the cause aforesaid were released by her departure out of this world in the 6. yeare of her raigne and 43. of her age Though God were pleased to cause the light of his Gospell to appeare in King Edwards daies yet for a surer setling of it he suffers it to be sealed by the bloud of many worthy Martyrs in Queene Maries daies Since which time to the immortall glory of God and the eternall salvation of many thousand soules it hath beene continued among us 63. yeares So Lord let it continue till the comming of thy Sonne unto judgement By this briefe narration of the troubles of former times let any indifferent Reader judge if God have not reserved us to the best times that ever England had both in regard of the Gospell of peace so long enjoyed and also in regard of the peace of the land so long continued The benefit wherof followeth next to be declared §. 96. Of peace and the benefits thereof * * * See §. 88. The last conclusion which as a just consequence I inferre from the evills of warre is this VI. PEace is a good thing Warre and Peace are contrary each to other As many evills arise from warre so many benefits from peace Good therefore it is as in the kind of it so in the effects that arise from it By peace lands are freely tilled orchards gardens vineyards and other like fruitfull places tended all manner of cattell encreased all kind of trading followed inheritances and what els of right appertaineth to men quietly possessed by the true owners thereof children well educated old men well nourished Schooles and Vniversities maintained The Gospell with free liberty preached all Gods ordinances observed good lawes duly executed wrong doers suppressed men respected according to their places and dignities opportunity afforded for exercising such abilities as God bestoweth on any mutuall communion made of such good gifts as God in any kind conferreth on severall persons poore men set to worke and relieved plenty procured meanes for sicknesse and all manner of maladies afforded decent buriall performed and many other like benefits obtained of all which by warre men are very oft spoiled and deprived Peace is the maine end of just and lawfull warre All the benefits * * * § 17. before noted to arise from warre are enjoyed in peace and are therefore attributed to war as effects thereof because by warre peace is procured and secured No marvell then that Christians are so much called upon a a a Rom 12. 18.
