sober_a and_o seasonable_a query_n humble_o offer_v to_o all_o good_a protestant_n in_o england_n in_o order_n to_o a_o choice_n of_o the_o new_a parliament_n i._o whether_o the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n scotland_n and_o ireland_n be_v not_o design_v for_o destruction_n by_o the_o hellish_a conspiracy_n of_o the_o bloody_a papist_n as_o have_v be_v declare_v by_o two_o parliament_n and_o sufficient_o prove_v by_o the_o king_n witness_n before_o the_o judge_n of_o this_o kingdom_n ii_o what_o posture_n of_o defence_n extraordinary_a be_v the_o city_n of_o london_n and_o nation_n in_o at_o the_o discovery_n of_o so_o hellish_a a_o plot_n to_o defend_v themselves_o from_o the_o insurrection_n of_o papist_n at_o home_n and_o invasion_n from_o papist_n abroad_o suitable_a to_o the_o desire_n of_o a_o loyal_a parliament_n iii_o whether_o prorogation_n and_o dissolution_n of_o parliament_n at_o such_o a_o time_n as_o this_o do_v not_o fill_v the_o heart_n of_o protestant_a subject_n with_o evident_a fear_n of_o destruction_n and_o give_v the_o curse_a plotter_n too_o to_o much_o ground_n to_o believe_v that_o their_o day_n be_v come_v iv_o whether_o have_v we_o not_o great_a reason_n to_o fear_v that_o the_o papist_n will_v not_o hereby_o take_v encouragement_n to_o proceed_v in_o their_o hellish_a design_n to_o murder_n the_o king_n who_o they_o know_v be_v swear_v at_o his_o coronation_n to_o maintain_v and_o defend_v the_o protestant_n religion_n and_o so_o be_v solemn_o engage_v against_o they_o whereby_o they_o may_v subvert_v the_o government_n by_o bring_v in_o a_o popish_a successor_n in_o who_o be_v all_o their_o help_n and_o hope_n v._o whether_o any_o speech_n to_o or_o in_o parliament_n in_o favour_n of_o a_o popish_a successor_n be_v not_o of_o direct_a tendency_n to_o prepare_v the_o nation_n to_o make_v trial_n of_o it_o again_o as_o if_o the_o dreadful_a effect_n of_o queen_n mary_n reign_n be_v or_o ever_o can_v be_v forget_v who_o great_a promise_n be_v seal_v with_o fire_n and_o faggot_n vi_o if_o so_o what_o be_v we_o to_o think_v of_o they_o that_o have_v or_o shall_v discountenance_v or_o endeavour_v to_o corrupt_v the_o king_n witness_n or_o that_o do_v indulge_v arraign_v traitor_n impudent_o to_o asperse_v the_o justice_n of_o the_o land_n vii_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o the_o indispensible_a duty_n of_o all_o protestant_a magistrate_n whatsoever_o with_o the_o people_n of_o england_n to_o consider_v with_o themselves_o and_o consult_v the_o learned_a in_o the_o law_n what_o power_n god_n and_o the_o king_n and_o the_o law_n have_v put_v into_o their_o hand_n for_o the_o prevention_n of_o popery_n and_o slavery_n both_o from_o themselves_o and_o posterity_n lest_o their_o ignorance_n and_o security_n bring_v destruction_n without_o recovery_n viii_o whether_o it_o will_v not_o be_v for_o the_o perpetual_a honour_n of_o the_o magistrate_n of_o london_n to_o be_v first_o in_o this_o work_n forasmuch_o as_o that_o famous_a city_n have_v woeful_a experience_n in_o their_o many_o dreadful_a burn_n that_o the_o tender_a mercy_n of_o the_o papist_n towards_o they_o be_v popish_a cruelty_n ix_o whether_o that_o costly_a monument_n erect_v near_o london_n bridge_n be_v not_o to_o be_v a_o perpetual_a land_n mark_v for_o all_o english_a and_o foreign_a protestant_n forever_o to_o remember_v 1666._o septsmber_n 2._o when_o those_o curse_a plotter_n begin_v to_o set_v fire_n at_o a_o baker's-house_n in_o pudding-lane_n which_o by_o these_o emisary_n be_v conduct_v on_o for_o four_o day_n together_o till_o it_o lay_v in_o ash_n thirteen_o thousand_o two_o hundred_o proof_n lay_v waste_n three_o hundred_o seventy_o three_o acre_n of_o land_n within_o the_o wall_n and_o above_o sixty_o three_o acre_n without_o the_o wall_n with_o eighty_o nine_o parish-church_n x._o whether_o the_o spanish_a invasion_n 1588._o and_o the_o gunpowder-treason_n 1605._o together_o with_o the_o cruel_a murder_n and_o massacre_n on_o some_o hundred_o thousand_o protestant_n man_n woman_n and_o child_n in_o the_o netherlands_o ireland_n piedmont_n and_o the_o albigenses_n be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a warn_v to_o england_n that_o they_o beseech_v their_o god_n and_o their_o king_n and_o their_o parliament_n that_o no_o papist_n of_o such_o destructive_a principle_n may_v dwell_v in_o our_o land_n xi_o whether_o such_o a_o day_n as_o this_o do_v not_o loud_o call_v for_o repentance_n that_o protestant_n have_v be_v persecute_v each_o other_o and_o for_o unity_n in_o affection_n among_o all_o protestant_a subject_n whether_o conform_v or_o dissent_v in_o some_o lesser_a point_n and_o that_o as_o brethren_n they_o unite_v in_o such_o a_o combination_n or_o conjunction_n as_o be_v in_o queen_n elizabeth_n time_n with_o good_a success_n to_o defend_v the_o crown_n religion_n and_o kingdom_n against_o the_o common_a enemy_n of_o mankind_n forasmuch_o as_o the_o episcopal_a protestant_n as_o well_o as_o other_o must_v lie_v down_o in_o the_o same_o bed_n of_o flame_n together_o if_o the_o pope_n and_o his_o party_n get_v the_o upperhand_n xii_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o the_o duty_n of_o all_o good_a protestant_n to_o pray_v for_o the_o long_a life_n of_o the_o king_n that_o he_o may_v live_v so_o as_o become_v the_o same_o religion_n it_o be_v a_o enemy_n to_o all_o vice_n and_o the_o maintenance_n of_o all_o virtue_n forasmuch_o also_o that_o the_o remove_n of_o the_o king_n as_o the_o papist_n call_v it_o be_v the_o most_o likely_a way_n to_o let_v in_o popery_n and_o a_o thousand_o other_o misery_n upon_o this_o poor_a kingdom_n xiii_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o high_a time_n for_o all_o the_o protestant_n in_o england_n to_o resolve_v as_o one_o man_n that_o they_o will_v stand_v by_o and_o maintain_v the_o power_n and_o privilege_n of_o parliament_n together_o with_o the_o power_n and_o just_a right_n of_o the_o king_n according_a to_o the_o law_n of_o the_o kingdom_n so_o as_o the_o one_o may_v not_o entrench_v upon_o the_o other_o fourteen_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o the_o duty_n of_o all_o good_a protestant_n to_o be_v hearty_o thankful_a to_o god_n for_o the_o timely_a discovery_n of_o this_o hellish_a plot_n and_o also_o to_o pray_v that_o god_n will_v preserve_v the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n witness_n that_o they_o may_v finish_v their_o testimony_n to_o the_o well_o become_v so_o signal_n a_o work_n and_o humble_a behaviour_n before_o almighty_a god_n the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n that_o they_o may_v obtain_v mercy_n at_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n and_o not_o be_v castaways_a to_o themselves_o while_o they_o be_v of_o such_o public_a use_n and_o benefit_n to_o these_o bleed_a nation_n xv._o whether_o all_o the_o county_n city_n and_o corporation_n in_o england_n be_v not_o at_o this_o time_n more_o high_o concern_v than_o ever_o to_o make_v choice_n of_o such_o for_o parliament_n man_n as_o may_v not_o sell_v but_o save_v they_o to_o the_o happy_a settlement_n of_o our_o present_a protestant_a king_n and_o government_n xvi_o whether_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o the_o duty_n of_o the_o people_n to_o choose_v such_o as_o be_v well_o know_v to_o be_v man_n of_o good_a conscience_n and_o courage_n thorough_o principled_a in_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o of_o high_a resolution_n to_o maintain_v it_o with_o their_o life_n and_o fortune_n xvii_o whether_o all_o true_a english_a man_n ought_v not_o serious_o to_o consider_v what_o they_o trust_v the_o parliament_n with_o viz._n their_o estate_n liberty_n religion_n and_o life_n and_o shall_v they_o be_v undo_v in_o any_o of_o these_o when_o it_o be_v too_o late_o they_o may_v lament_v themselves_o that_o they_o be_v undo_v by_o make_v such_o a_o choice_n as_o have_v undo_v they_o by_o law_n xviii_o whether_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v the_o great_a care_n of_o all_o county_n city_n and_o borough_n to_o consider_v who_o have_v be_v former_o pensioner_n or_o farmer_n of_o popery_n and_o whether_o they_o be_v fit_a again_o to_o be_v entrust_v with_o their_o religion_n life_n and_o liberty_n xix_o whether_o you_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o consider_v those_o worthy_a member_n of_o the_o late_a parliament_n who_o have_v already_o faithful_o serve_v you_o and_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n with_o their_o person_n and_o estate_n and_o now_o show_v your_o esteem_n of_o they_o and_o acceptance_n of_o their_o former_a service_n by_o a_o unanimous_a choose_v of_o they_o again_o forasmuch_o as_o they_o be_v best_a acquaint_v with_o the_o deplorable_a state_n of_o these_o kingdom_n xx._n whether_o it_o be_v not_o your_o indispensible_a duty_n to_o endeavour_v to_o make_v their_o election_n easy_a by_o bear_v your_o own_o charge_n and_o the_o charge_n of_o the_o mean_a sort_n of_o freeholder_n lest_o such_o as_o will_v hearty_o serve_v you_o be_v in_o time_n discourage_v to_o undertake_v that_o great_a work_n of_o preserve_v you_o and_o your_o posterity_n in_o your_o lawful_a and_o undoubted_a right_n xxi_o whether_o may_v we_o not_o without_o breach_n of_o charity_n conclude_v that_o if_o know_a pensioner_n do_v now_o buy_v seat_n in_o parliament_n they_o do_v not_o intend_v again_o to_o make_v merchandise_n of_o all_o that_o be_v dear_a to_o we_o and_o whether_o will_v not_o all_o freeholder_n and_o elector_n be_v deserve_o account_v infamous_a and_o the_o betrayer_n of_o their_o country_n who_o shall_v resolve_o after_o such_o discovery_n of_o our_o danger_n and_o such_o opportunity_n of_o be_v by_o god_n blessing_n deliver_v from_o they_o by_o honest_a english_a parliament_n sell_v themselves_o their_o wife_n child_n and_o estate_n for_o one_o of_o esau_n morsel_n xxii_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o the_o hearty_a prayer_n of_o all_o good_a protestant_n that_o the_o king_n will_v be_v please_v to_o hearken_v unto_o and_o rely_v upon_o the_o advice_n of_o his_o parliament_n and_o avoid_v all_o such_o who_o seek_v to_o make_v themselves_o rich_a by_o make_v the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n poor_a forasmuch_o as_o the_o parliament_n be_v the_o great_a council_n of_o the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n and_o by_o they_o the_o king_n be_v supply_v out_o of_o the_o purse_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o they_o command_v and_o encourage_v the_o people_n to_o venture_v the_o shed_n of_o their_o dear_a blood_n in_o any_o just_a and_o righteous_a cause_n to_o maintain_v the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n power_n and_o greatness_n xxiii_o whether_o if_o you_o will_v believe_v the_o jesuit_n and_o priest_n at_o st._n omers_n that_o there_o be_v never_o any_o such_o man_n as_o sir_n edmundberry_n godfrey_n bear_v and_o if_o you_o will_v believe_v what_o his_o

xxiv_o last_o whether_o if_o popish_a treason_n and_o murder_n render_v the_o papist_n '_o at_o their_o death_n as_o innocent_a as_o the_o child_n unborn_a who_o will_v not_o be_v a_o murderer_n and_o
