B08364	Alter amyntor:, or, The case fairly stated between King Charles I. and Dr. Gauden Mr. Wagstaff and Mr. Toland, touching icon basilike. With short notes		1699 (1699)	Wing A2929B; ESTC R224629	11,613	1

Wagstaff has judiciously observ'd that Mrs. Gauden and Dr. Walker contradict one another in thirteen particulars of chief matter of Fact 2. 'T is not likely that the E. of Anglesey Dr. Gauden himself or any other communicated the Secret of Dr. Gauden's being the Author to King Ch. II. or the D. of York or if it was communicated to them 't is certain they did not believe it true as appears by both their Letters Patent to Mr. Royston and Mr. Chiswell for Printing Icon Basilike as their Fathers 3. 'T is very probable the whole Evidence for Dr. Gauden is pure contrivance and design'd on purpose to bring a discredit upon the Memory of King Ch. I. which is the rather to be believ'd because these upstart Evidence never appear'd till King Ch. I. and my Lord Capel were murder'd my Lord Chancellor Hide the Marquiss of Hertford Mr. Odert the Kings Secretary who transcribed it for the King Mr. Symonds who brought it to Mr. Royston to Print Bishop Morley and all those they thought could contradict them in it were Dead 4. Dr. Gauden himself after the Restoration and after he was Bishop of Exeter did often declare to Mr. Long then and now Prebendary of that Church That he was fully convinc'd that Icon Basilike was intirely King Charles the I ' s. Work and this has been and is still ready to be attested by Mr. Long. 5. 'T is not likely that Dr. Gauden if he had had such a Design would have trusted Dr. Walker with the Secret whom he knew to be an Enemy to that King and his Cause 6. Should all that these Witnesses and Memorandum say be true yet still they had it but from Dr. Gauden himself and we see Mr. Long still living testifies that Bishop Gauden declared to him often that he the Bishop was fully conconc'd that Icon Basilike was intirely King Charles I. Work and therefore not his own whatever he might say to gain Credit with his wife and Chaplain 7. Toland's Story in Amyator about King James's denying his Letters Patent to Mr. Chiswel is all Lye not a word of Truth as appears from Sir Roger L'Estrange's Letter of May 5. 1699 to Mr. Wagstaff who only could know the truth of that matter 8. My Lord Clarendon in his Letter of May 5. 99. to Mr. Wagstaff declares that he is of opinion his Father my Lord Chancellor Hyde and Bishop Morley looked upon it to be King Charles his own Work because Bishop Morley with whom he was very intimate desired him to tell his Father that there were ill Men about King Charles II. who endeavour'd to perswade him his Father was not Author of Icon Basilike which the Bishop would never have said had he known Dr. Gauden to be the Author And when he told his Father he said Good God I thought the Marquiss of Hertford had satisfied the King in that matter which says his Lordship and We must allow his Lordship the best to understand his Father's meaning I understood he meant the Marquis had told him his Father was the Author of it 9. Mrs. Gauden says That when Icon Basilike was publish'd it enraged the Parliament so that her Husband concerning his Life and Estate in Danger fled to Sir John Wentworth 's near Yarmouth intending thence to pass the Seas but Mr. Symonds falling Sick and dying and her Husband not being discover'd be alter'd his purpose and return'd home Now if ever Dr. Gauden did as Mrs. Gauden here says or is made to say he did this seems to be the plain English of it None but Mr. Symonds knew that Doctor Gauden had taken a Copy of the King's Book which as things then stood was a very high Crime if the Party should be discover'd who had testifi'd so much affection to the King as to transcribe it the Dr. therefore fled but hearing Mr. Symonds was dead who he knew was the only man could hurt him by a discovery he return'd home And this is the more probable interpretation of what Mrs. Gauden says Because had Dr. Gauden really been the Author of the Book he must have been in Danger of a discovery from my Lord Chancellor Hyde My Lord Capel the Lord Marquess of Hertford Bishop Duppa Bishop Morley Dr. Walker Dr. Gifford Mrs. Gauden Mr. Peacock c. who are all said to have been privy to Dr. Gauden 's being the Author tho by the way it was never said so till after they were all dead as much or rather more than from Mr. Symonds who was the Kings Chaplain and one of his fastest Friends even to Death Therefore had Dr. Gauden been afraid of being discover'd for the Author not the Copier he would not have return'd till all the above named persons had been dead as well as Mr. Symonds or at least till a change of Government came when it should be more safe to return London Printed and are to be Sold by J.
