A89238 A magazine of scandall. Or, a heape of wickednesse of two infamous ministers, consorts, one named Thomas Fowkes of Earle Soham in Suffolk, convicted by law for killing a man, and the other named Iohn Lowes of Brandeston, who hath beene arraigned for witchcraft, and convicted by law for a common barrettor. Together with the manner how my Lord of Canterbury would put and keep them in the ministery, notwithstanding the many petitions and certificates from their parishioners, and others, presented to him, they being the head and most notorious of the scandalous ministers within the county of Suffolke, and well may be said of all England. And against whom as chiefe of the scandalous ministers the county of Suffolke have petitioned to the Parliament: and desired to bee seene by Parliament, because herein is something mentioned, which is conceived, that one of these scandalous ministers have abused the authority of the Lords in Parliament. 1642 (1642) Wing M248; Thomason E137_17; ESTC R9987 9,689 14

minister_n against_o who_o the_o county_n of_o suffolk_n have_v petition_v after_o the_o former_a taste_n give_v of_o the_o outward_a comportment_n of_o these_o two_o rare_a bird_n i_o will_v that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o little_a understand_v of_o the_o inward_a matter_n they_o be_v endue_v withal_o i_o mean_v as_o touch_v their_o ability_n of_o learning_n and_o divinity_n for_o i_o make_v account_n by_o the_o former_a discourse_n that_o they_o can_v have_v much_o inward_a grace_n for_o they_o never_o seek_v for_o that_o at_o lambeth_n fair_a neither_o do_v i_o think_v that_o any_o be_v thereto_o be_v sell_v therefore_o i_o will_v apply_v myself_o to_o the_o other_o i_o mean_v their_o learning_n because_o you_o may_v understand_v what_o good_a cause_n my_o lord_n of_o canterbury_n have_v so_o strong_o to_o keep_v they_o in_o the_o ministry_n it_o may_v be_v think_v that_o it_o be_v their_o great_a learning_n indeed_o as_o for_o that_o they_o have_v learning_n enough_o to_o preach_v against_o they_o that_o will_v not_o pay_v treble_a their_o tithe_n and_o to_o inveigh_v against_o such_o as_o they_o bear_v malice_n and_o that_o in_o many_o unfitting_a term_n out_o of_o point_n of_o learning_n or_o divinity_n but_o i_o will_v know_v first_o whether_o they_o can_v read_v well_o or_o no_o for_o i_o be_o sure_a that_o neither_o of_o they_o can_v write_v true_a english_a yet_o they_o endeavour_v to_o read_v their_o sermon_n which_o i_o will_v not_o condemn_v if_o they_o be_v pen_v conduce_v to_o the_o interpretation_n of_o the_o scripture_n and_o not_o from_o any_o malicious_a spirit_n scholar_n they_o be_v i_o confess_v and_o have_v need_v to_o go_v to_o school_v still_o for_o one_o of_o they_o be_v demand_v what_o microcosmus_n be_v which_o by_o interpretation_n signify_v a_o little_a world_n answer_v that_o it_o be_v latin_a for_o a_o mist_n or_o fog_n the_o demandant_n reply_v again_o it_o be_v true_a for_o it_o be_v more_o than_o a_o mist_n for_o sure_a he_o be_v in_o a_o great_a cloud_n of_o darkness_n and_o one_o of_o they_o at_o another_o time_n be_v demand_v what_o plerophoria_fw-la signify_v which_o signify_v fullness_n of_o faith_n he_o answer_v that_o he_o do_v not_o like_o that_o word_n because_o as_o he_o think_v the_o papist_n do_v attribute_v it_o to_o the_o name_n of_o picture_n and_o relic_n and_o the_o demandant_n reply_v again_o that_o he_o think_v he_o do_v not_o like_o that_o word_n indeed_o and_o believe_v that_o he_o will_v never_o be_v bring_v to_o like_v it_o but_o quid_fw-la moramur_fw-la in_o istis_fw-la let_v we_o follow_v our_o text_n and_o tell_v you_o how_o my_o lord_n of_o canterbury_n will_v not_o by_o no_o mean_n be_v inform_v nor_o persuade_v to_o hear_v any_o thing_n against_o these_o two_o for_o divers_a of_o the_o neighbour_n have_v desire_v their_o solicitor_n to_o present_v divers_a petition_n and_o certificate_n to_o his_o lordship_n against_o the_o say_a

of_o the_o foul_a action_n of_o they_o both_o and_o it_o must_v be_v understand_v that_o this_o fowkes_n be_v ipso_fw-la facto_fw-la out_o of_o his_o function_n upon_o his_o conviction_n until_o the_o

thereof_o and_o keep_v it_o and_o still_o have_v it_o which_o to_o any_o man_n judgement_n have_v be_v enough_o to_o induce_v any_o bishop_n in_o the_o christian_a world_n not_o to_o have_v dispense_v with_o a_o man_n who_o hand_n be_v in_o blood_n and_o convict_v for_o kill_v of_o a_o man_n which_o have_v be_v much_o if_o he_o have_v receive_v a_o certificate_n of_o the_o say_v fowkes_n honest_a

but_o to_o the_o ministry_n my_o lord_n do_v restore_v he_o by_o what_o law_n or_o canon_n none_o can_v warrant_v for_o none_o who_o hand_n have_v be_v in_o blood_n ought_v there_o to_o remain_v which_o be_v hear_v and_o know_v to_o the_o astonishment_n of_o many_o well_o govern_v and_o able_a minister_n as_o other_o layman_n and_o religious_a people_n conceive_v at_o first_o that_o my_o
