Sam. 15.22 1 Kings 2.46 Iosh 7. 2 Sam. 21.1 c. and the doing of such iustice beeing more acceptable to the Lord then sacrifices and the throne of Salomon being then sayd to be established in the hands of Salomon when he had executed iustice euen vpon his brother Adoniiah and vpon Ioab and Shimei Did not Israel also fall before little Aie till iustice was done vpon Achan for his sinne secretly committed And was there not a famine in all Israel till Dauid had granted iustice against seauen sonnes of Saul for his sinne against the Gibeonits which had beene the cause of the sayd three yeares famine How was the Lord displeased with Saul for his mercie to Agag 1. Sam. 15. 1. Kings 20 42. Num. 33.55 Iosh 23.13 Iudg. 2.3 And with Ahab for letting Benhadad a king of another Nation go out of his hands whom he had appointed to die Were not the Canaanites also contrarie to Gods commandement suffered by the Israelites prickes in their Eyes and thornes in their sides O right Honorable I humblie beseech you to consider that the Amalekites withstanding only the Israelites as they were going to the earthly Canaan and the Aramites that oppugned only their outward state and the other before mentioned were not such aduersaries as the Papists be that are all members of the Man of Sinne 2 Thes 2.3 Apoc. 18.20.21 Apoc. 19.1 c. the Child of Perdition who cannot escape that horrible destruction that the Lord hath threatned wherin men and Angels shall reioyce and which are enimies to the euerlasting saluation of all Gods people Seueritie therefore against obstinate Papists is no crueltie but great honor to God and great mercie to our Soueraigne to his Royall Posteritie to all his Kingdomes and to all ignorant Papists themselues Worthy of euerlasting remembrance is the gracious promise of God vnto Iehu for that that he had done to Iezabel and the rest of the house of Ahab and their adherents 2 Kings 10 36. and to all Baals Priests Because thou hast diligently executed that which was right in mine Eyes and hast done to that house of Ahab according to all that was in my heart therefore shall thy sonnes sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation O the flourishing state of this Kingdome and the great honor of Queene Elizabeth in all other Kingdomes with her admirable prosperitie that would not vouchsafe a good countenance to any knowne Papists Many curses she had from the Father of Papists at Rome and from his Imps here at home but the same being causelesse came not to passe Prou. 26.2 so did not their practises against her Yea she and her people prospered the better at home and against all forein Enemies Let it not seeme strange right Honourable worthies that I haue beene so plentifull in this argument The insolencie of Papists since the Powder-Treason By the hellish Powder treasons which should haue destroied good and bad that Hell it selfe doth not a man a meere reasonable man much more a man instructed in the Word of God would haue thought that all Poperie and Papists would here and else-where throughout the Christian World as also with the Heathen themselues haue been had in perpetuall detestation and euerlasting execration But it is one of the greatest wonders of the World that euer since Poperie hath the more encreased and that not amongst persons only of low degree but of high and Noble ranke as also that Papists old and new haue been more insolent and lifted vp their hornes higher then euer since the bitter daies of the late bitter Queene Mary as if by the said most diuelish Conspiracie both Poperie and Papists had preuailed with his most excellent Maiestie and won grace and fauour with him the which God forbid that any true hearted Christian and loyall Subiect should euer haue cause to thinke or imagin The former insolencie likewise of the Papists or at least of some of that faction is now growne to that heighth that such true Christians and loyall Subiects as before I mentioned may now feare the companie of any whom they know not either trauelling by the High-way or in any other place Not long since a lustie young gallant of no small place if persons and state may be iudged by Apparell and Attendance falling into companie of a meane man in the way yet of good vnderstanding and religiously affected and by speech finding hint so to be for a while soothed him vp speaking as he spake and commending preaching as he did but at last he vnmasked himselfe and by diuers words shewed himselfe in his colours to be a friend of Poperie and not only an aduersarie but an enemie to the Gospel and of the preaching thereof verie roughly breaking forth into these bloodie words sutable to the bloodie Religion of the Scarlet Whore and saying It were a good deed to sheath my Sword in thy body O right Honourable doe not such things presage some further fore to be breeding Is it not time to looke to such And haue not all well affected to the Gospel to his Maiestie and to his Kingdomes need to pray much and to looke to themselues and to be wise as Serpents and in their trauels and elsewhere to beware of such Crocodils In all the premises for more seueritie against obstinat Recusant Papists Why nothing hath been spoken against toleration especially known to haue Masses in their Houses for the time to come or to goe to Masses else-where I haue spoken nothing against tolleration First Because if the premises shall take place there needeth nothing in that behalfe Secondly Because his Maiestie hath heretofore by the Lord Chancellor then being publiquely and graciously in his Court of Starre-Chamber signified his Princely resolution to the contrarie and that if he knew his Princely Sonne would encline that way he would doe his best endeuour to disinherit him Thirdly Because he hath not long since but euen lately almost caused certaine Diuines to signifie as much in their publique Sermons at Paules-Crosse in London Fourthly and principally Because the same is testified by that most learned and reuerend Bishop now Prelat of the Garter in his learned answer intituled Tortura Torti to a Booke of one that called himselfe Mattheus Tortus who wrot his Booke against the Apologie of our Kings most excellent Maiestie In the end of page 81 and beginning of page 82. In this answer to the said Book of the said pretended M. Tortus the said reuerend and learned Father writeth thus verbatim word for word Nec in eo Regi audiendus quòd consilium dat de Religione liberè habenda Integrum hoc iam illi non est Nam quod eum ea qua decet reuerentia dictum volo non semel periurus sit quin bis si te audiat Qua enim si qua est fidei bis datae conscientia vel conscientia vel fide ferret in regnis suis
