Gods Holy Word might keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of Peace It being a sad thing in his opinion that three Christian and Protestant Kingdomes under one Christian and Protestant King should have three several Confessions of Faith 4. Abolished several idle and barbarous Customs putting the Natives upon ingenious ways of Improving that rich Land by Flax Hemp c. infinitely to the Advantage of the King and Kingdom 5. Recovering near upon 40000 l. per year to the Church which by ungodly Alienations was made saith a Bishop of their own as low as Poverty it self bringing over with him as great Affections for the Church and all Publike Interests as he had Abilities to serve them 6. Put Ireland Anno 1639. in three moneths by a Parliament he got together in that short time into such a posture for Men and Money as was a Pattern to the following Parliament of England which resented that Service so much that the House of Commons gave him the Thankes of the Kingdome in their own House and waited upon him two of their most eminent Members supporting him to his place in the House of Lords In fine he wrought that wilde and loose people to such a degree of Peace Plenty and Security as it had never been since it was annexed to this Crown and made it pay for the Charges of its own Government which before was deducted out of the English Treasury Their Peace and Lawes now opening accesses to Plenty and Trade he remitted indeed nothing of that Authority Strictness Discipline or Grandieur that might advance the Interest or Honor of his Master yet he admitted so much moderation into his Counsels and Proceedings as that Despair added to former Discontents and the Fears of utter Extirpation to their wonted Pressures should not provoke to an open Rebellion a people prone enough to break out to all exorbitant Violence both by some principles of their Religion and the natural desires of Liberty both to exempt themselves from their present restraints and prevent after-rigors And when the Tumults of Scotland and the Discontents of England called for the same Counsel here that he had with success applyed to the distempers of Ireland how clearly did he see thorow the Mutinies and Pretences of the Multitude into the long-contrived Conspiracies and Designs of several orders of more dangerous men whose Covetousness and Ambition would digest as he fore-saw the rash Tumults into a more sober and solemn Rebellion How happily did he divine that the Affronts offered the Kings Authority on the score of Superstition Tyranny Idolatry Male-administration Liberty words as little understood by the Vulgar as the Design that lay under them were no other than Essays made by certain sacrilegious and needy men to confirm the Rapines upon Church and State they had made in Scotland and to open a door to the same practises in England to try how the King who had already ordered a Revocation of all such Vsurpations in Scotland and had a great minde to do the like in England would bear their rude and insolent Attempts whether he would consult his Power or his Goodness assert his Majesty or yield to their importunity How nimbly did he meet with the Faction by a Protestation he gained from all the Scots in England and Ireland against the Covenant of their Brethren in Scotland at the same time in several Books he caused to be printed discovering that the Scottish Faction that so much abhorred Popery proceeded in this Sedition upon the worst of Popish principles and practises And that this Godly League which was so much applauded by the people was a Combination of men acting over those Trayterous Bloody and Jesuitical Maximes of Mariana Suarez Sa Bellarmine which all good people abhorred Adding that those very persons that instructed the poor populary to quarrel with their Sovereign about Liberty should as it followed afterwards lay a more unsupportable slavery upon them than their most impious slanders could form in the imagination of the Credulous that they might fear from the King The power God had invested him with he intreated the King to own and the ways the Laws of God and the Land allowed him to maintain that power to make use of employing all the able men that pretended to skill either in Law or Government to see if Prerogative had any way yet left to save an unwilling People for knowing how prevailing the Seditious were always to disturb the Counsels of the Parliament he feared that from their proceedings the common Enemies would be encouraged as formerly to higher Insolencies and the envious Demagogues would contemn their own safety to ruine the Kings Honor therefore giving vigorous Orders for raising the Ship-money and a great Example towards Advancing a Benevolence subscribing himself 20000 l. and procuring the Subscription of 500000 l. from the Church the Court the City and Countrey besides some thousands by Compositions with Papists especially in Stafford-shire Lancashire York-shire c. and by Forfeitures observed by him in London Derry and other places held by Patent from His Majesty When he saw a Faction by the diligence of the Kings enemies and the Security and Treason of his pretended Friends who made it their business to perswade His Majesty that there was no danger so long until there was no safety formed into Councels and drawn up into Armies when he saw one Kingdom acting in open Rebellion and another countenancing and inclining to it when he discovered a Correspondence between the Conclave of Rome and the Cardinal of France between the King of France and the Rebels of Scotland between the Leaders of the Scottish Sedition and the Agents of the English Faction one Pickering Laurence Hampden Fines c. being observed then to pass to and fro between the English and the Scottish Brethren and saw Letters signed with the Names though as some of them alledged since without the consent of the Five Members c. when the Government in Church and State was altered the Kings Ships Magazines Revenue Forts and faithful Servants were seized on the Orders of State and Worship of God were affronted by a barbarous multitude that with sticks stools and such other instruments of Fury as were present disturbed all religious and civil Conventions and the Kings Agents Hamilton Traquair and Roxborough pleased no doubt with the Commotions they at first raised and by new though secret seed of Discontents improved increased the Tumults by a faint Opposition which they might have allayed by vigorous punishments all the Declarations that were drawn in the Kings Name being contrived so as to overthrow his Affairs In a word when he saw that the Traytors were got into the Kings Bed-chamber Cabinets Pockets and Bosom and by false representation of things had got time to consolidate their Conspiracy and that the Kings Concessions to their bold Petition about the Liturgy the
