A18700	An exhortation to all menne to take hede and beware of rebellion wherein are set forth the causes, that commonlye moue men to rebellion, and that no cause is there, that ought to moue any man there vnto. With a discourse of the miserable effectes, that ensue thereof, and of the wretched ende, that all rebelles comme to, moste necessary to be redde in this seditiouse [and] troublesome tyme, made by Iohn Christoferson. At the ende whereof are ioyned two godlye prayers, one for the Quenes highnes, verye conuenient to be sayd dayly of all her louing and faythfull subiectes, and an other for the good [and] quiete estate of the whole realme. Read the whole, and then iudge.	Christopherson, John, d. 1558.	1554 (1554)	STC 5207; ESTC S117507	113,228	472

Wherfore yf it chaunce at any time that an euil Prince hath the gouernement of a realme let the people first make theyr humble petition to the prince and beseche hym to be fauourable to them and yf that wyl not auayle them to seke then to his counseyle and cōplayne vnto them desyryng them to gyue him good aduertisemēt and entreate hym to be good to hys subiectes for oftentymes good counseyle maye do muche in suche a cace And let them neuer contrary to gods wyll pleasure eyther iudge of their Princes cōditions because God is his iudge nor seditiously lyfte vy theyr swordes agaynste hym but folowynge the example of the chyldren of Israel let them wholy referre their cause to God make their humble petition to hym to be relieued and they shal vndoub●edlye at his handes haue remedye Furthermore it were wysedome too thinke yea we must neades beleue it to that Princes are appoynted by God for Salomon sayth in the person of wisdome which is God him selfe That by me kynges haue their rule And then to ponder wel with our selfes for what purpose God hath sent vs suche a wicked prince whether through our noughtye lyfe we haue deserued to haue such a noughtye ruler or y t God hathe suffred him to reygne ouer vs for a trial of oure patience If we haue deserued by our noughtye demeanour to haue suche one as it may well be that we haue for Iob sayth ▪ that god sendeth a noughty dissembling ruler for the synnes of the people then let vs do penaunce betyme and by feruent prayer aske God hartely of pardon desyre hym that whē he hath wel punished vs to be merciful vnto vs and deliuer vs from our misery alway earnestly beseche hym to giue y ● prince grace to amend for so shal we both helpe to saue him our selfes to Agayn if such one be suffred to rule ouer vs for a trial of oure patience thē leest we loose our patience the reward therof w t al let vs patiētly beare him by patient suffringe encrease our patience Furthermore yf be that we be by him so sore afflicted that we can not possibly beare suche a burden anye longer then muste we call to God for helpe and comfort ▪ At whych tyme wythout doubte he wyll saye thus For the misery that the neady

suffre and the lamentation that the poore make to me I wyll now aryse And so as Iob sayeth he wyll deliuer vs from our oppression In suche aduersitie we maye not loke to be deliuered when we wil our selfes but we must tary Gods pleasure hauynge sure trust that he will deliuer vs at length for Salomon wryteth thus Tary for thy Lorde God and he wyll delyuer thee Lyke as the husbandman by by after he hath sowen his ground loketh not to reape the frute therof in all haste but tarieth for a season So we when we haue made our petitiō to god we muste patiently abide his pleasure and he wyll surely send vs succour when he shal thinke it moste conuenient for vs. Thus by prayer and patient suffringe shall we obtein oure purpose And not onely that but shalbe highlye rewarded to at goddes hande for our godly patience Therfore all such as are for a season wyth sore paymentes or with enhansed rentes or by any other meanes sore oppressed let them neuer by vnlawfull wayes seke their deliuerye so be the cause of their owne destruction seynge that they maye be well assured that by prayer and patience they shal not only haue their requeste but also greate thākes of god to whose wil they holy betoke thē For yf a man were set fast in a close prison and there sore pāged with painful tormētes the same man yf so be that he had a sure promisse of hym y t had authoritie to deliuer him that he should not only come forthe therof at a certein day but shulde besides haue some liberal reward to recompence his greuouse punishment y t he hadde so patientlye borne were he not then worse then madde if he would go aboute eyther to fight with y e gailour auenturing with y e ieoperdie of his lyfe to get out by strong hande or els to digge vp the foundation of the prison or to breake out so perhappes fall in hazarde of hanginge wherfore whosoeuer is thus troubled and longeth for the day of his deliuery let hym passe on y ● tyme wyth patience for a whyle and take good comforte in his care because he is assured that god wyll at lengthe mercifully delyuer hym But some men wyll say percase we shalbe deade or y e day come It may be so in veri dede and therfore muche lesse nede they to passe for their tribulation For yf death come then shall they be not only of good comforte because they haue borne their trouble patientli but also glad of their paynes passed because y t then shal they be rewarded for them Yet som there be into whose heades these thinges wil not syncke but they saye styl why shulde we be obedien●e to a noughty prince or why shuld he haue al and we littel or nothing These haue not lerned S. Peters lesson that men ought to obeye not only good godlye princes but also such as be threwed rigorous For y t is verye cōmendable yf a man suffre trouble and that wrongfully to because he knoweth the same to be acceptable before GOD. Nor they haue not redde the fable of y e belye and the other members of y e body which Menenius Agrippa recyted vnto the people of Rome when as they beganne to rebel against the consules and chiefe rulers of y e citie were al ready gathered together in the hyll called Auentine whych fable is written in Liuie after this sort At such tyme as the mēbres partes of the bodye did not as they do now agree altogether w t one consent but euery membre vsed his owne counseyle and coulde speake for hymselfe the reste of the members muche grudgynge that by their care trauayle al thynges shuld be soughte gotten for the belies vse and that y e bely shuld do nothinge but lye at his ease in the myddest of them and enioye suche pleasures as they had prepared conspired and agreed together that from thenceforth neyther the hand shulde lyfte the meate to the mouthe nor the mouth shoulde receaue it nor the tethe shulde chowe it Wherefore whyle as for thys displeasure they went aboute to tame the bely with hunger all the members and partes them selfes yea and the whole body to was in a maner clean consumed Whervpon it well appeared that the ministerye and seruice of the belye is not ydle or vayn but that it nourisheth y e other partes aswel as it is nourished it selfe because it spreadeth abroade into all partes of the body the bloud whych is cause of our life and strength and the same when the meate is digested is diuided into the vaynes to Thus telleth Liuie Christes disciple and I praye God I set at nought all thynges visible vnuisible to thintent I may wynne my Lorde Iesus Christ. As for burning in a hoate fyre as for to be hāged vpon a crosse to be assaulted of wylde beastes to haue my bones all to wrinched and frushed to haue my membres cut all in peaces to haue my whole body gronden with milstones yea and to haue all the tormentes that the deuyl can deuy●e to fal vpon me I passe not so that I may wynne my swete sauiour Iesus Christe Here you maye perceaue the stoute courage of Christes mightye champion the sore bruntes that he was mooste gladde to abide for the obteynyng of that heauenlye victorye For he knewe that after this sort only shulde Christes souldiars fyghte Lykewyse dyd the holy and blessed martyr Polycarpus when men were sent to take hym and to bring him to the offices of that countrye that he might be tormented for Christes fayth came downe to them with a pleasaunt and mild countenaunce talked wyth them and commaunded a table and greate plentye of meate to be prepared for thē and prayed them to eate make good cheare desyred them that in y e meane season he mighte haue licence to praye Whych done he dyd not resiste them nor wente aboute to prepare a companye of men whych he being so wel loued in that countrie might belike easelye haue done to fight wyth them so to saue him selfe from theyr tormentrye but most mekely gentlye wente he forth with them and after longe talke that he had with the officers as touchyng hys fayth most frely frankely in a greate audience of people defended it Wherevpon all the people cried this is the greate doctor of Asia the father of the christen men and y e destroyer of our Gods Let hym be burned quicke So when the fyre was made ready he most wyllyngly lowsed hys gyrdell him selfe and put of his clothes And when thei would haue nayled hym faste to the stake no sayd he let me alone as I am For he that giueth me strength to endure the hoate flames of fyre wyl I doubte not gyue me grace stedfastly to stande by it without anye naylinge So y t they dyd not nayle him at all but onlye

to see euerye man to haue his righte and doubteth not by Goddes helpe yf God sende her life to redresse thinges that are out of order and so to prouide that all her louynge subiectes shall haue a

very well in her behalfe vnto vs. Most dearly beloued country men what cause haue we to hate our most lawfull ladye maystresse placed by god in the gouernement of this realme and by all our consentes established in the same What goeth she aboute that shulde so agreue vs Doth she not as much as lyeth in her labour to auaunce the glory of god whiche is the especyall office of euery good Christen prince Doth she not trauayle to defend Christes true fayth whereby euerye one of vs trusteth to be saued Doth she not maynteyne the Catholike churche of god and the laudable ordinaunces therof Doth she not seke alwayes possible to bringe al those that be infected wyth heresye to their deare mother agayne y ● spouse of Christ whome they had of late vtterly forsaken Doth she not study all that she can to saue vs both body and soule Yea and she hartelye wisheth euerye one of vs as well to fare ▪ as she would her selfe And suche is her goodnesse that she prouideth rather for our profyte ▪ then for her owne Besyde this she by all meanes seeth the good lawes of this Realme to be duely obserued She gyueth also most straight charge to al her officers to execute iustice She monisheth all them that be in aucthoritie to beware of briberye taking of reward And she exhorteth all the clargie of this Realme to be diligent in doynge their dueties She moueth the nobilitie y ● they be gentle vnto vs that they by no meanes go aboute to hurte vs or with fines in cōmes empouerish vs What wold we haue her highnes to do She laboreth for vs she lyueth for vs and she ruleth for vs. For elles why shoulde her grace take the vntolerable paynes that she dothe but for vs She breaketh many a slepe that we may slepe quiet lye She taketh muche care anguishe to auoyde vs from care She tosseth and turmoyleth her selfe to set vs at ease She taketh no pleasure in thys lyfe but only for oure cōmoditie For what cause shuld she desire to lyue ▪ seynge she hath suche a paynfull lyfe but onelye to saue our lyues Or why should she not wishe to be gone out of thys miserye and to be at rest wyth our Lord sauiour Iesu Christe ▪ but that she woulde fayne or she wente hence deliuer vs from misery Her highnes is appoynted by almightye God to gouerne vs. For what purpose I praye you To seke her owne pleasure to satisfie her owne lustes to studye for her owne priuate welthe No no she knoweth that God requireth of her and of all Princes likewise that they fede the people that they norish them that they promote the good and punishe the badde That they loue their subiectes and loke diligently to them If we dyd considre what greuouse cares what broken slepes what fearfull dreames what doubtefull counseylles what stormes and troubles she hath for our sakes we shoulde haue iust cause hartelye to thanke her grace that she wold leaue the quiete state of lyfe that she was in before and take thys vnquiete state vpon her that she nowe lyueth in There was a king in olde tyme that cast downe his crowne vpon the grounde and sayde these wordes to those that were present with hym If a man perfectly knew and with al wel consydered what sorowful cares are vnder that royall crowne he wold neuer take the paynes ones to take it vp Therfore thinke this that the paynes be hers and the pleasure is ours Then how vnkinde or rather how hard harted are we if we go aboute to rewarde her kyndnesse wyth displeasure and to be vngentle to her that is so gētle to vs to fight agaynste her that laboreth to defende vs to seke her death when she seketh our life to cōtriue like cruel wretches to destroy her seing y ● her highnes so earnestly trauaileth to saue vs. Of late we were in bōdage and god hath delyuered vs by her We were oppressed with all kinde of misery and god hath most gratiously loked vpon vs. We shulde haue bene made lyke pesauntes of Fraunce y t is to say velaynes and slaues if god had not had compassion vpon vs through her And yet doth her highnes chalenge no part of the prayse but referreth it all to god who specyally deserueth it We were before euery day afearde to loose all y t we had and stode in daunger therof but nowe maye we quietlye rest and thinke that we shallbe assured to enioy our owne For oppression is banished by iustice and ryght taketh place by the lawe What cause haue we then to grudge at her grace to cōspire agaynst her to lyfte vppe our swordes as cruell wretches to murder her Alas what a deadly malice haue we in our hartes to desyre her bloude seinge that she sore sygheth and lamenteth if any of vs miscarye But some wil say perhappes that her marriage doth displease them Why so I beseche you Doth not she entende to enriche vs therby Doth not she trauayle as you haue heard before to get muche honor to this oure countrye agayne Whych hath as Dauid sayeth bene a mockinge stocke to all other countries aboute it If her grace knewe that any displeasure shuld come to this realme by her marriage for so he● grace sayd openly in y e guylde hall in London she wolde rather neuer marry whyle she liued For God did marrye her sayd she to this region whē she was anoynted and crowned our Quene And as he is an euyll hus●ande that seketh the wiues displeasure so is he an euill ruler that worketh the wo of hys subiectes Therfore be we well assured that she neyther doth nor entendeth to do that that is like lye to hurt this realme or to hinder the commoditie of any inhabitant thereof but muche to auaunce it and by Goddes helpe to reduce it to the olde estate ▪ and honorable estimation agayne As for straungers we nede not to feare For yf they do any iniury to any subiecte of hers they shalbe punyshed by the lawes of thys realme as we be And yf they behaue them selfe gentlye as it is very lyke that they will we shall haue cause to loue thē to ioyne frendship with them and to make muche of them For so shall we deserue thankes both of them

deuoutly behaue them selfes in al their doinges that y e light of their good workes may shine cleare in the flocke of Christ to thintent that all that shal loke therevpon may prayse magnifie thee o
