they can neither Rob nor be Robbed Because all they get is their own and what others get from them is all well gotten These are Excellent Principles and the onely Foundation of our Government as the Jacobites do object And therefore we should do well to keep off these tender Points and not give these Jacobites occasion against us You upbraid the Papists p. 4. for knowing how to expound Providence to flatter Superstition And you know how the Jacobites upbraid us with expounding Providence to flatter Success tho' it were in Rebellion Treachery and all Wickedness Which if it Succeeds it Immediately Commences not only Right but Divine as if Commanded by an Angel or a Prophet or the Mouth of God Himself according to Dr. Sherlock c. What strange Sermons say these Jacobites have we from your Bishops and Top Divines proving the Lawfulness of this Revolution from Providence by which they mean Success Which was as much made use of and almost in the same Words by the Rump Parliament Oliver and all the Canting Tribe God came from Nasby and the Holy one from Marston Moore Selah This will Justify the French King in all his Conquests and gives Mahomet the better of Christ And yet say the Jacobites we are Deafned with it from your Pulpits You might likewise have Forborn that little piece of Wit p. 10. of reckoning the Loud and Zealous Ladys of the Jacobire side For you know where that is to be Retorted at home With the help of these Loud Ladys you say they the Jacobites are enough to make a Noise but as they were not hands enough to hinder the late Revolution neither can they say you make another Here you make them very inconsiderable when you are upon your vapouring pin as the Jacobites do deride you For they observe that either your Memory or your Courage fails you p. 19. where you make the number of the Jacobites the Great incouragement to the French King to Restore King James For say you Without a hopeful Conspiracy in England the French King is too wary to make such an Attempt And p. 21. Were it not for them our Factions at home we need not fear its France's united Force Nor are you less affraid of the Zealous Ladys you have provok'd some of them may be upon your Top but you Court them again p. 21. where reckoning the Miseries of a Civil War you Reckon the Loss of Husbands but not of Wives this sure will touch them in the sensible part and Charm their tender Hearts This was a great deal Tweeter than what you have six Lines above where comforting us as to the Taxes and other Prices of this Revolution you say While we have left wherewithal to Maintain our selves we have no such great reason to complain This might have been spared because you know we have lest a great many Jacobites in a Condition not to Maintain themselves It had been also advisible if you had thought fit to have let alone that Gentile Rub you gave King James Page 20. We know the Late King too well to take his word For this raises the Devil of an Objection which the Jacobites have against us of our present King not keeping to his Declaration besides many Breaches of Promises since Dispencing with the Law and all those Grievances even Countenancing Popery of which we Complain'd in K. J.'s time In all whose Reign we had no such Example of Favour shewn to Popish Priests and Friars as was seen the Sessions at Old-Baily held 31. Aug. 1. 2. Sept. 92. Where two Friars by name Graham and Thursby were Indicted for the Murder of a Coffee-Man in Holbourn having first behauched his Wife in her Religion and he was Jealous in her Chastity as her self confess'd in Court where she came and was admitted as an Evidence for Graham who run her Husband thorow but she declared That her Husband run himself upon his Sword These Friars had the Interest they say it was by means of the Prince Vaudemont to have a Promise of their Pardon from K. W. then in Flanders But it was thought the best way to prevent the Noise that would make to have them Acquit upon their Tryal towards which all things being Dispos'd and the Necessary Orders given the Conduct was committed to Judge who had shewn himself so zealous against the Deprived Bishops that he corrected the Cryer of his Court for stileing one of them by the Title of Bishop when he call'd to have room made for him to come into the Court whither he was Summon'd as an Evidence in some Cause Depending It is likely the Cryer had not otherwise made the people know whom he meant But the Judge had better Skill in the Force of an Act of Parliament-Deprivation which Hody himself nor his Prompters behind the curtain do pretend to take away the Character that when he chid the Cryer for giving the Depriv'd Father the Title of Bishop What Bishop sayes Judge come Doctor Lloyd what have you to say This Learned Judge altered his Countenance and was all sweetness to these Friars which was observed by the whole Court and when one Objected that they were Popish Priests whom the Laws Discharged out of the Kingdom upon pain of Treason His Lordship temper'd that Man's Heat with the Gravity and Calmness of a Judge telling him That was not the Cause before them In short The Wife gave Evidence The Judge Summ'd it up The Jury Acquitted And All the People took Notice But it is not to be omitted say these Jacobites That in the Printed Account of the Trials that Sessions this of the Friars is left out Which I have heard some say was never done before in any case and durst not have been done now but by Order But they say what need we Instance Particulars It is Notoriously known That Popish Priests have of late not only own'd themselves as such before the Privy-Council but pleaded it as an Argument for their Indemnity and Protection Pursuant to the Secret Articles 'twixt King William the Emperour King of Spain c. And they have been allowed it It is true we excuse all this upon the account of Necessity But that does not stop the Jacobites Mouths They say that Necessity is as pleadable by one King as another And besides That we have Created this Necessity of which we Complain And that if Papists must be Countenanc'd what matter is it whether it be to Gratify the Confederates or the French who are less Papists than either Spain Savoy or the Popish Germans and not more Persecutors than any of these All this the Jacobites do Retort upon us Again p. 22. abusing of the French King you say He has no Scruple of Conscience about the Rights of other Princes all he can get is his own Dear Sir did not you Reflect that this is the very Reproach which the Jacobiees cast upon King William with this aggravation that he has no Scruple of Conscience not
