A Relation of the Popes being in a Swoun at the Newes of Abolishment of Superstition in the Kingdome of England in the Clymactericall yeare of the Bishops 1642. THere being divers Intelligencers as it is generally conceived now resident in the Kingdome of England that hold private correspondency with his Holinesse the Pope of Rome that have certified his Holinesse of the present estate this and other his Majesties Kingdomes standeth now in and the great affaires in Agitation by the great and high Court of Parliament therein now assembled and congregated for the setling of the peace and quiet of the same the rectifying and regulating of the corruptions innovated into Religion and for the making of good and wholsome Lawes for the Government of his Majesties good People and Loyall Subjects in purity and righteousnesse and to suppresse and punish Vice and enormous offences practised and agitated by all such persons dis-affected to the welfare and prosperity thereof of what dignity or degree soever they be whether Spirituall or Temporall His Holinesse at those tydings grew much Male-content fearing the effect thereof might prove dangerous and destructive to the peace and prosperity of the Kingdome of Idolatry whereof he hath beene the principall defender and preserver To prevent and avoid which dangers threatned by the calling of this Parliament He endeavoured what in his power lay by his Spirits Priests and Jesuits infused into the body of that State to worke and agitate with the Bishops and Prelaticall faction that were in subjection and obedience or well-wishers and great favourers to that Kingdome of Idolatry and the pious intentions of his Holinesse to defend and preserve the same to hinder their proceedings and intentions in setling and establishing true Religion in that Kingdome the effects whereof have a long time succeeded according to their desires but the Policy and Wisedome of that State perceiving the same they then endeavoured to prevent and annihilate their designes First by accusing and impeaching the Grand Instrument of practising and agitating their hinderance in the same his little grace and lesse gracious the Archbishop or intended Patriarch of Lambeth and Canterbury and confining him to his private lodging in his strong Castle and secure place of residence the Tower whereby hee became uselesse to the rest in perfecting their designes concerning that businesse Secondly the accusation and impeachment of divers Prelates Adherents and Allyances to that faction the little Wren and the Bishop of Bathe and Wells and many others of great and enormous crimes confining them likewise to severall places under the like Jurisdiction of the Black Rod of security and safety Thirdly the Grand Impeachment and accusation of no lesse then twelve of the greatest Competitors of that saction of no lesse crimes then High Treason for their perverse and wicked practices upon which they were alwaies confined to the seventh dayes society of their Grand Patron and Master Little Laud in his Princely Palace the Tower there to have residence for their security during the pleasure of the Prince of that Kingdom and the whole State now assembled in Parliament Fourthly the putting downe the votes of Prelates and their sitting in Parliament as a party in the House of Peeres and taking from them all Temporall Jurisdiction in any affaires of State or Civill Government Fiftly their endeavours to take away the Votes and sitting in Parliament of Popish Lords Alliances and favourers of that faction Sixthly their proceedings against scandalous and dis-affected persons of the Inferior Clergy well minded towards that Religion and great defenders privately of the same Seventhly the disarming of all Popish Recusants whereby they are left destitute of all hopes to defend and preserve themselves and their Religion Eighthly and lastly the putting of the Lawes of that Kingdome in execution against his Holinesse the Spirits Priests and Iesuites whereby all hopes of inducement of his Majesties good Subjects to side with them and favour their cause is quite taken away His Holinesse having received certaine intelligence of these proceedings by the Parliament in England at the receit whereof his Holinesse fell immediately into a deadly swoun but by the help of his Magicians Physitians I would have said being recovered againe to his senses they then fell into consultation what meanes were best to be used to prevent a dangerous sicknesse and generall plague that might fall by this misfortune not only on the person of his Holinesse but on the whole Kingdome of Idolatry and at last concluded these remedies were best to be used for the stopping and prevention of these future dangers threatned First to raise Rebellion in his Majesties Kingdome of Ireland of all that faction against Protestants and all that shall seeke the ruine and destruction of his Holinesses Kingdome in that State Secondly to send instruments of mischiefe privately into England to stirre up all Catholickes in that Kingdome to raise the like sedition and Rebellion to put into combustion and trouble that State also whereby the Parliament being busily employed in appeasing such mutinies may neglect their proceedings in setling true Religion and abolishing Superstition And lastly to practice privately by treacherous Stratagems to bring to destruction divers worthy Peeres of that Kingdome and Members of the Commons House that doe most labour and endeavour the extirpation of Popery and all Popish and superstitious Ceremonies and corrupt Tenents in Doctrine and Discipline innovated and introduced into the Religion established and setled in that Kingdome FINIS
