superstitious trumperies yee can deuise against vs. Did yee not heare did not the fame thereof eccho vpon Romes gates what a wonderfull mercy the Lord shewed to this Land the last yeare when vpon the very day of our publike fast throughout the Land being the second of August a day worthy to be put in the Rubrick of our perpetuall thankesgiuing vpon that very day I say God began euen miraculously to stoppe that sad and vnseasonable influence of heauen wherewith our fields now waxing white to the haruest were so pittifully drenched that almost all hope of harvest was drowned in our feare of a deluge in stead thereof yet even then began the heauens to cleare and cheare vp their clowdy and angry countenance when wee began to weepe they began to smile and from that day forward continued so extraordinarily and constantly faire without one dayes intermission vntill by Gods fauour they brought vs in not onely an harvest in season but in an extraordinary aboundance hath the Lord done thus to vs for temporall things vpon such our humiliation and will not be also for spirituall much more when wee truly sett our selues to seeke his face and fauour in the pardon of our sinnes Assuredly he will And as you may remember our deliverance from your Gunpowder plott vpon the fifth of Nouember so yee may bee pleased to recognize how the same God sent a fearefull vengance in bringing the same House downe vpon your heads when there yee being solemnely assembled began to erect your Dagon cheeke by joule by Gods Arke and to aduance the Throne of your Antichrist euen in the face of Christs Tribunall and all this remember and marke it well vpon your very fifth of Nouember Remember I say and forget it not that it may teach you to tremble before that God of Ours and euer may we also remember it for thankefullnesse to our God for vindicating his owne cause and glory against such proud and insolent affronts Well consult I say lay your heads ioyne you forces together arme your selues with as much might as yee haue malice against vs we feare you not so long as we shall oppose our religious to your anxious prayers Wee praying and humbling our selues as behoues vs yee shall no more prevaile against vs then Amaleck did against Israell while Moses bands were held vp The Lord giue all his people grace to put on the true Armour of Light euen the whole Armour of God whereby wee may stand fast in the euill day Then shall wee be sure that not all your spirit of charitie which is nothing else but the spirit of malignitie and confederacie against Christ now your spirit of fortitude which is the spirit of all lawlesse daring against God and his Gospell shall any whit auaile you In the meane time yee mightily triumph in your hopes as if already yee had the victorie So yee did in 88 so at the Gunpowder plot Yee may now as well as then reckon before your Host Yet it is good for vs to take notice of this your confidence of triumph It may teach vs though not to feare your brags yet not to bee secure but to prouide betimes to preuent your triumphs and to turne the examples of your fortitude into the examples and spectacles of confusion iustly falling vpon such Giant-like fighters against God and his Word But beside your anxious prayers you haue your councels yea councels of your onely Apostolicke inerrabilitie of your Apostolicke Senate your Conclaue of Cardinals drawing all their councells from your Holinesse breast For that is the proper seate of all your Senatorian power and councells Your predecessor Pope Nicholas the third assumed to himselfe the whole Senatorian power he by decree shut out all other temporall regiment in Rome and about and subiected it all to his Apostolick Soueraintie This now is your Apostolicke Senate Thus you proue your selfe that Beast bearing the Image of the former to wit of the ancient secular Roman power Reuel 13. Thus you exercise the whole power thereof being perpetuall Dictator hauing Consular and Senatorian power which ioyn'd with Apostolicke showeth you to bee both the seauenth and the eighth Head of that great Beast and so insumme that Antichrist Your Apostolicke Senate is of no lesse power then that ancienter Roman Senate to whom it belonged to admit into or to reiect from the number of their Gods whom they pleased So that Tiberius the Emperour could not preuaile to haue Christ sainted for a God because the Senate forsooth had not first allowed of it And doth not your Apostolicke Senate the same You saint and defie whom you please And Christ himselfe is no farther God with you but as you limit him by diuiding his Prerogatiues among your other pettie Gods Saints yea his mother you set aboue him your own Apostolicke Senats aboue all in Heauen earth You told vs before you feared our Counsels What need you You haue all counsell in your Apostolike Conclaue You can say to vs as once your predecessor Innocent the fourth to Henry the third King of England when hee went about to restraine Papall vsurpation in this Kingdome Rex Anglorum in quis qui jam recalcitrat Frederiz at suum habet consilium ego vero meum habeo quod sequur The English King saith he who now kicketh with the heele and playeth the Fredericke hath his Counsell and I also haue my Counsell which I will follow Of the two we feare more your counsels then your prayers But forasmuch as you spare not here to blaspheme also the Holy Ghost our trust is he will befoole all your Counsels Dare your father your impious Counsels and confederacies vpon the Holy Ghost that his Lights should be your Oracles Dare you ascribe your Counsels of darknesse to the illuminations of the Holy Ghost Surely your Holinesse is deceiued Is it not that spirit which as some of the Cardinals with their Pope Iohn the twentie two sitting in a Counsell at Rome praying for the presence of the Holy Ghost said appeared in the likenesse of an oughly Owle out staring the Pope in his face This indeed is a liuely embleme of that Spirit by whose Oracle your Apostolicke counsels are directed But neuer for shame goe about to perswade the world that your counsels for treasons and rebellions for absoluing subiects from their fidelitie and allegiance are the illuminations of the Holy Ghost So was Mahomets Doue his Holy Ghost So his epilepsian or comitiall fit but a trance wherein he talked with his Angell Gabriell So might Eugenius the third your predecessor haue two holy Ghosts at once attending vpon him while as he was saying Masse two Doues miraculously ascended and descended vpon him So Zedechiah the false Prophet might perswade he had the Spirit intail'd to him as you to Peters chaire when he said to Michaiah When went the spirit from me to speake vnto thee So did Numa Pompilius

Christ vnto himselfe To bring in the Turke for a Corriuall with the Pope for the title of Antichrist is to dreame waking and to bewray extreme ignorance in those two great Mysteries the one of Godlinesse the other of iniquity For all the Turks Alcoran cannot make one compound of the Mystery of iniquity whereby to deceiue with strong illusion if it were possible the very elect For take but a breefe suruey of the Mystery of iniquity This Mystery began to take roote in the Apostles time as Saint Paul speaketh but was letted to grow by the Romaine Empire as the learndest Fathers haue interpreted and experience hath made it euident and by manifold Persecutions for the space of aboue 300. yeares Then Constantine the great like Noahs Doue after the Deluge bringing an Oliue branch of peace and after a sad winter a mild spring and sommer to the Church setting a Coronet vpon the head of Syluester the 1. Bp. of Rome then the imperiall City at what time there was a voice heard from Heauen Hodie venenum effusum est in ecclesiam This day is poyson powred into the Church from this time forward began the Root of this Mysterie to sprowt and spring bud forth and blossome aboue ground howsoeuer nipt by sundry frosts as an ouerforward shoot in the spring For Rome by vertue of being the prime Imperiall City and the Bp. of Rome by vertue of his new Crowne began from henceforward to stickle for the supremacy ouer all other Churches Yet at the first his best Plea was a counterfet and foisted Decree of the Nicen-Councel by which hee would claime the Presidency of the African Councell whereof Saint Augustine was But the whole Councell cryed it downe hauing openly conuinced the Bp. of Rome of forgery For as yet the Bp. of Rome had not learned how he might deriue this streame of Supermacy to Rome from the fountaine of Scriptures But still the Mystery fastened the roote euery day more more and got ground vntill Boniface 3. about the yeare 606. by earnest suit and importunity as their owne Platina recordeth obtained of the Parricide Phocas that the City of Rome should be the head and Mother city ouer all other But what was this to the Papall Supremacy yes for vpon the Headship of Rome the Pope now founds his owne Headship ouer the Church all Church men that he might proue himselfe to be that man of sinne that Son of Perdition who exalts himselfe marke it well aboue all that is called God sitting in vpon or ouer the Temple of God For Phocas his meaning was not when hee granted the preheminence to Rome before other cities whose emulous corriuall Constantinople her younger sister had bene Phocas now stinting the strife that therefore the Bp. of Rome should haue that absolute souerainty ouer all as euen Boniface then began to arregate to himselfe who of Bp. of Rome a title which he had had with other Patriarches in common only hauing precedency of place in regard of the prime Imperiall city now is turned Pope of Rome challenging the soueraine authority of sole Father of the Church with his Volumus Iubemus we will and commaund which Motto this first Pope of Rome brought in with an innouation of the ancient custome of the Church of assuming the power of election and inuestiture of Bishops into his owne hand whereupon his Papall word was Volumus Iubemus So that thus this Boniface became the first stemme or eminent branch growing from the root of the Mystery of iniquity Here began Antichrist to display himselfe whose immediate forerunner as Gregory Bp. of Rome but a little before called him was Iohn of Constantinople who taking vpon him that blasphemous name of vniuersall Bp. as Gregory termes it was therefore the forerunner A most true Prophecy Now Boniface Gregories next successor but one is the Antichrist whose forerunner was Iohn All you that are versed in the storles of the Church know all this to be true This branch henceforward spreads further and further and mounts higher and higher till Hildebrand Pope Gregory 7. who added another maine branch to the former to wit domination ouer Kings and Princes which the Pope had striuen for before the Mistery of iniquity still working but Rome was not built in one day but could not obtaine full possession of it till this Hildebrand who begins Iupiterlike to thunder out his excommunications against the Emperour This Hildebrand sate about 1000. yeares from the destruction of Ierusalem fulfilling the prophecy of letting loosse the Deuill after 1000. yeates for he was a Coniurer got the Popedome by Satans meanes exercised the vsurped power of Satan ouer the Kingdomes of the world brought in that doctrine of Deuils in forbidding marriage to Priests He began to peruert the Scripture to his wicked purposes as the Deuill did to Christ which saith Bruno in vrspergensis is a most grosse kind of Idolatry From this time forward this tree of the Mystery of iniquity did thriue and prosper notoriously hauing the two numerous Orders of Saint Dominick and Saint Francis to water it instituted by Pope Innocent 3. at the Counsell of Lateran vpon his Dreame that the Lateran was like to fall but that in came Dominick and supported it with his shoulders wherevpon the next morning the Pope granted him his sute which he was then in hot pursuit off for the erecttion and institution of his black Order This Innocent 3. was the first that decreed the Breaden God in his Transubstantiation to be belieued and adored of all about the yeare 1215. And in the yeare 1300. began Pope Boniface 8. to institute and celebrate Romes first Iubilee marching forth the first day in his pontificalibus wearing no longer the single but the tripple Crowne and the next day in his Imperiall Robes with two Swords carried before him with Exe duo gladij hîc Behold here are two Swords the Spirituall and temporall Thus grew on still step by step this Mystery of iniquity hauing many helpes to forward it as first the Emperours Court remoued to Constantinople and 〈◊〉 that which 〈◊〉 the Antichrist was taken out of the way as 2 Thess 2. the losse of the Emperours footing in Italy in Augustulus the quarrell about Images deuised at first by Gregory onely for Lay-mens bookes yet wherein now all Romaine-Catholicks Lay and learned are proved such profound Proficients as by their often and over-studious diligent pooring therein they haue learned such Divinity in them as to adore them for theyr Gods the rising vp of Maomet in the East the translation of the Empire into the West the long pretended holy warres for recovery forsooth of the holy Land the Pope setting Christian Princes to goe fight for the Shadow the while hee got the Substance the rabble of Friers of all sorts the Schoole Rabbies and profound ignorance all along all religion being confined to an vnknowne tongue that men might know
