A65679	The ignoramus justices being an answer to the order of sessions at Hick's-Hall, bearing the date the 13th of January, 1681, wherein it plainly appears the said order is against law : also a short account of all the acts that relate to Protestant dissenters at this day in force against them ... : and also an account of such acts as are in force against popish recusants ... : and hereunto is also added a brief account of the penalties and forfeitures of those acts ... / by Drawde Kekatihw.

be_v not_o only_o entrust_v with_o the_o peace_n of_o the_o kingdom_n but_o more_o than_o probable_a be_v endow_v from_o above_o with_o the_o spirit_n of_o prognostication_n too_o or_o at_o least_o a_o very_a great_a foresight_n far_o beyond_o our_o late_a parliament_n for_o they_o can_v not_o see_v one_o half_a so_o far_o though_o i_o dare_v not_o mention_v that_o too_o much_o for_o fear_v of_o the_o snarl_a popish_a cur_n the_o word_n parliament_n or_o house_n of_o commons_o be_v but_o once_o name_v unless_o to_o ridicule_n it_o be_v enough_o in_o our_o day_n to_o be_v term_v a_o whig_n

pray_v how_o come_v it_o the_o justice_n at_o the_o court_n of_o hicks's-hall_n do_v not_o foresee_v it_o soon_o but_o it_o may_v be_v the_o late_a blaze_a star_n have_v now_o enlighten_v their_o

still_o neither_o as_o we_o shall_v see_v hereafter_o but_o let_v we_o proceed_v further_o as_o to_o this_o part_n of_o the_o order_n and_o you_o will_v find_v that_o all_o the_o great_a cause_n of_o these_o justice_n fear_n arise_v but_o from_o a_o very_a small_a thing_n next_o to_o nothing_o for_o they_o tell_v you_o they_o can_v sit_v still_o because_o of_o a_o few_o obstinate_a person_n rather_o by_o noise_n than_o number_n do_v disturb_v the_o peace_n now_o if_o it_o betrue_v that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o few_o it_o may_v be_v answer_v then_o what_o need_v all_o this_o noise_n of_o the_o justice_n sure_o a_o few_o of_o these_o conventicler_n may_v easy_o be_v deal_v with_o without_o all_o this_o ado_n as_o if_o the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n be_v at_o stake_n and_o if_o it_o be_v true_a that_o they_o make_v more_o a_o noise_n than_o number_n methinks_v the_o justice_n shall_v by_o the_o course_n at_o the_o common_a law_n silence_n their_o noise_n and_o not_o be_v behold_v to_o the_o act_n that_o give_v the_o court_n of_o session_n no_o power_n at_o all_o to_o act_v by_o and_o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o such_o a_o few_o make_n a_o noise_n can_v disturb_v the_o peace_n of_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n and_o bring_v ruin_n upon_o it_o as_o the_o order_n affirm_v but_o to_o make_v a_o full_a mend_n for_o all_o their_o jealousy_n and_o fear_n in_o the_o next_o place_n they_o tell_v we_o viz._n they_o do_v esteem_v in_o a_o duty_n incumbent_n upon_o they_o to_o use_v all_o lawful_a experiment_n which_o may_v beget_v union_n among_o his_o majesty_n subject_n etc._n etc._n now_o here_o they_o have_v hit_v the_o point_n unite_n of_o subject_n that_o be_v prosecute_v the_o constable_n and_o under-officer_n because_o they_o will_v not_o turn_v informer_n contrary_a to_o law_n and_o present_a and_o convict_v the_o sober_a protestant_a dissenter_n that_o go_v to_o meeting_n in_o a_o peaceable_a manner_n this_o be_v the_o justice_n way_n or_o rather_o the_o court_n order_n to_o have_v union_n among_o his_o majesty_n subject_n but_o i_o suppose_v the_o order_n mean_v popish_a subject_n for_o no_o man_n of_o sense_n can_v say_v this_o be_v to_o unite_v the_o protestant_a subject_n well_o but_o what_o follow_v in_o the_o next_o place_n that_o the_o justice_n at_o the_o court_n may_v be_v both_o amiable_a and_o admirable_a and_o a_o pattern_n and_o good_a example_n to_o all_o justice_n of_o other_o county_n as_o well_o as_o their_o own_o as_o they_o be_v in_o the_o late_a address_n and_o presentment_n they_o have_v go_v a_o great_a deal_n further_o than_o the_o common_a sort_n of_o loyal_a subject_n for_o be_v jealous_a i_o suppose_v of_o their_o own_o power_n by_o the_o law_n of_o the_o land_n you_o will_v find_v in_o the_o next_o place_n to_o show_v their_o great_a zeal_n for_o the_o unite_n of_o his_o majesty_n subject_n they_o have_v not_o stick_v to_o set_v the_o bishop_n court_n to_o work_v to_o excommunicate_v these_o few_o noise_n heretic_n for_o in_o the_o next_o part_n of_o the_o order_n it_o follow_v viz._n it_o be_v therefore_o by_o this_o court_n desire_v that_o the_o lord_n bishop_n of_o london_n will_v please_v by_o such_o method_n etc._n etc._n to_o direct_v etc._n etc._n as_o in_o wisdom_n he_o shall_v etc._n etc._n within_o his_o jurisdiction_n to_o use_v his_o utmost_a endeavour_n that_o all_o such_o person_n may_v be_v excommunicate_v who_o shall_v commit_v crime_n deserve_v ecclesiastical_a censure_n etc._n etc._n so_o that_o by_o this_o it_o seem_v the_o very_a justice_n themselves_o then_o believe_v they_o have_v not_o law_n enough_o to_o punish_v those_o conventicler_n or_o else_o by_o the_o order_n it_o show_v they_o most_o cruel_a and_o inhuman_a what_o must_v the_o conventicler_n be_v punish_v both_o way_n at_o once_o both_o common_a law_n and_o canon_n law_n lose_v their_o estate_n by_o the_o act_n and_o their_o soul_n by_o the_o spiritual_a court_n too_o this_o be_v sure_o more_o inhuman_a than_o france_n to_o their_o dissenter_n that_o be_v flee_v over_o here_o they_o do_v but_o take_v away_o their_o estate_n and_o child_n but_o not_o their_o soul_n that_o they_o escape_v over_o here_o with_o well_o since_o it_o be_v so_o that_o the_o english_a dissenter_n must_v be_v thus_o deal_v with_o it_o be_v time_n to_o look_v about_o they_o and_o consider_v the_o bishop_n power_n as_o well_o as_o the_o justice_n but_o before_o we_o say_v any_o thing_n of_o that_o we_o must_v consider_v the_o order_n a_o little_a more_o as_o to_o this_o head_n and_o that_o be_v how_o the_o clergy_n come_v to_o be_v stir_v up_o by_o the_o layman_n to_o prosecute_v the_o people_n about_o their_o soul_n health_n it_o be_v true_a we_o often_o find_v in_o the_o popish_a time_n that_o the_o clergy_n and_o great_a bishop_n have_v often_o incite_v and_o stir_v up_o the_o magistrate_n and_o layman_n to_o burn_v the_o heretic_n and_o keep_v they_o in_o prison_n up_o the_o writ_n de_fw-fr heretico_fw-la comburendo_fw-la and_o de_fw-fr excommunicato_fw-la capienda_fw-la and_o to_o supplicate_v the_o court_n for_o these_o writ_n and_o process_n against_o the_o excommunicate_v but_o never_o be_v it_o hear_v before_o that_o the_o common_a lawyer_n or_o justice_n sue_v to_o the_o bishop_n for_o their_o fellow-subject_n and_o brethren_n to_o be_v send_v to_o hell_n if_o this_o be_v law_n and_o to_o keep_v the_o peace_n of_o middlesex_n then_o pray_v let_v we_o complain_v no_o more_o of_o the_o french_a king_n use_v his_o protestant_n hard_o for_o sure_a to_o any_o unbiased_a man_n this_o look_n ten_o time_n worse_o than_o the_o french_a persecution_n be_v little_o less_o than_o to_o incite_v the_o bishop_n to_o disturb_v the_o public_a peace_n and_o to_o use_v a_o arbitrary_a power_n like_o their_o own_o design_n but_o now_o after_o this_o malicious_a incitation_n of_o this_o order_n to_o show_v the_o reason_n of_o their_o instruct_n or_o incite_v the_o bishop_n to_o send_v the_o soul_n of_o heretic_n to_o hell_n they_o make_v this_o further_a improvement_n of_o it_o in_o case_n they_o can_v get_v the_o thing_n do_v and_o they_o have_v this_o great_a
