A96291	A declaration to Great Britain and Ireland, shewing the downfall of their princes, and wherefore it is come upon them: because Christ is riding on his white horse, conquering his enemies till he have destroyed Antichrist, who hath made the nations drunk with the cup of her fornications: and till he have destroyed Mahomet, that great deceiver of the people. / Written and directed to Great Britain, and all other nations; by me Robert Wharton, wel-wisher to my countrymen, and to all the faithfull in Christ Jesus throughout the world. With an humble advice to the Army. This treatise is approved and commended, and thought worthy to be printed, by Master Hugh Peters.	Wharton, Robert, fl. 1649.	1649 (1649)	Wing W1575; Thomason E555_35; ESTC R204066	18,927	28

Bush and sacrificed like as he would have sacrificed the people of the Lord. Thus hath the Lord appeared for his peoole yet for all this the enemies of the Lord will not see what the Lord is doing but they will goe on and though they see plainly that the Lord is destroying his enemies yet will they be more vile raising up War but it proves their own destruction as consider the evill that our King hath brought on him and his posterity and all because he could not set up Papistry and bring the Nation into a slavish condition ô that wicked will that is in man by nature though to the destruction of himselfe and his posterity which though he had wealth enough by the revenues of three Kingdoms yet would not all this serve him but a tyrannicall government over the Nations surely they that have hearts to consider and well understand this may very well know that he had no great love to the Nation but to rule like a Tyrant or a cursed stepfather that loves the wealth the children are heirs unto but strives to make the children away who would have gone from his people as he did when he was so royally and lovingly entertained by them a great gift given him another to his Queen and another to the Prince by the Citizens of London which was not the gift of one man but the gift of many yea how did the Citizens entertain the Queens Mother thus did the people rejoyce to doe them good and for all this kindnesse they sought to spill our bloud and who must he choose but Papists for his trusty friends as Arundel Lunsford an arch Papist to be Lieutenant of the Tower to beat the City about our ears this love and kindnesse have we found at his hands for the great love we shewed him when he tooke up a War against the Scots he spared their bloud and granted their desires but when he came to reason with us nothing but fire and sword served his turn to destroy us a poore and blinde people that should so much desire the life of him that was not only a destroyer of the body but likewise of the soul by seeking to put out the light of the Gospel and to have set up papistry as you may see by his actions under a colour desiring to have Religion as it was in Queen Elizabeths dayes and so to have set up Papistry but with his Lordly Bishops but all would not serve his turn for when he had run his course in the place where he had sinned in the same place he must end his dayes a sad condition for in the time of his prosperity he built a Masking-house for the Devils worship or sporting upon the same place where the Lords name was call'd on the Masking-house being built up to over-top Gods place of worship yet doe I not say that is the true place of Gods Worship for the place that God chooseth for his worship is in the heart yet that place was chosen by man to call on the name of the Lord therefore did the Lord as for his wicked designe and so brought bloud upon his head as he hath done on his Nobles and the rest of his friends that were the enemies of Jesus Christ But me thinks I heare him be wailing Straffords bloud truly he needeth not for never was man more sorry for his friends death then he was for his had he pittied this Nations bloud as he pittied his there had been no War raised by him to cut off English men as he hath done Some say that Duke Hambleton clears the King of Irelands bloud as concerning the Protestants there how many times hath he been moved in every Treaty by the Parliament to cause War to cease there but would not yield to it then judge you whether he be guilty of that bloud or no. Again some say it was not lawfull for the Parliament assisted by the Army to put him to death will ye say so are they not they whom the Lord hath put the Sword into their hands to execute vengeance on his Enemies is his bloud dearer to him then the bloud of his Saints though he was an utter enemy so far as his power did reach to cut off the people of the Lord. But you will say that David would not lay his hand on his King a great reason for David knew that he was anointed to be King by the Prophet of the Lord therefore had it been presumption against the Lord to snatch the Crown to his head and not wait the Lords leasure for David was told by the Spirit of the Lord that he should be King and that Sauls dayes should be shortned Again Saul was a freind to the Nation cutting off the Gibonites thinking to doe the people his Subjects a pleasure but ye saw no such affection in our King towards the people his subjects but take notice how the Lord dealt with Saul after he had destroyed him by his enemies his wrath was not appeased so but he revenged the bloud of strangers on his seed caused a dearth for foure years to come upon the Land and would not be appeased till he had rooted out his posterity If the Lord dealt so with him that was a freind to the Nation how much more will he be angry with those that will spill the bloud of the Nation and destroy the Lords Inheritance Yet one great worke I doe behold and I doubt a sad one that our Ministers should so much bewail his death that proclaimed them Traitors who would not have spared their lives but have put them to death and so have put out the light of the Gospel as you may take notice concerning his actions and those that were in counsell with him in their wicked practises had it not beene death for any that should have come to give him evill counsell against the Gospel or against the Lords inheritance Had he been a godly Prince would he have slighted the death of his Father as he did when he was told he was poysoned and when a Parliament was called in the beginning of his Reign how would he have searched out the offenders but he caused the Parliament to be put by and sit no more likewise concerning Rochel work what treachery was there laid against the poore Protestants there judge ye they sent hither for help against the Papists for fear of being overcome by them and he promised them help but when their greatest need and desires came on them he sent the ships against them whereby they were overthrown thus from the beginning of his Reign to his last days hath he been an enemy to the people of the Lord and will ye cause the people to mourn after him that so much hath sought after their destruction truely a sad case Christ saith ye are my friends if ye do whatsoever I command you I am sure he doth not command you to mourn after his enemies when he is destroying them do you
