not without some annoyance Euen the verie Saluere of the tongue like the Saliva thereof hath some venome in it Psalme 28. 3. They speake friendly to their neighboures but imagine mischiefe in their heartes But their reall Deliuerances much more noxious For as it is in the Apologue to which the Poet alludeth of the Combat betweene the Stagge and the Horse viz. That the Horse beeing too weake for the Stagge required the helpe of the man which hee easily obtained who getting vpon the Horse backe driued the Stagge to flight but after that non equitem dorso non fraenum depulit oze he could neuer since quit his backe of the rider nor his mouth from the bit so is it with the helps of worldly Potentates beneficia viscata as the birde hauing escaped the snare percheth vpon the tree for refuge and there shee findes bird-lime to intangle her from whence she cannot flie but with losse of her feathers if not of her members so is it with the helps of States and Nations aske their helpe in distresse they will graunt it but withall eyther they exact a tribute which exhausteth the Treasury or impose conditions which infringe the Liberty or require a future aide which weakeneth the Power or betray vpon aduantage which redoubles the Misery or vpbraide the benefite which exulcerates the minde This is Saluatio ab Optimatibus as the Latines reade Ieremy 25.35 which as the Vsurers loane to speake for the capacity of the Citty freeth a man from the prison for the time but inuellops him in bondes more miserable more durable than the prison Herein differing from God for his blessing sayeth Salomon giueth riches yea and Deliuerances nec addit molestiam and ioyneth no sorrowes with them For if it bee salutare ex Sion Ps. 53.6 Then shall Iacob reioyce and Ifrael shall bee glad And thus much for the word Salutes the summe whereof is Psalme 85.9 that if it be Salutare Domini there concurre with it omnes salutes Glory Mercy Righteousnesse Peace as the Prophet there noteth The conclusion that in psalme 3.8 Domini est salus it is the Lord onely that giues true Deliuerance and withall a blessing vpō his people And this for the Pluralitie and Qualitie of the Deliuerances Now we come to the Quantitie Great wherein wee will not goe further than this Psalme nor there speake of his Salus coronans eyther the Celsitude of his honour verse 35. He hath set me vp on high places nor of the Amplitude of his honour verse 45. Thou hast made mee the head of the heathen a people remote vnknowne nor of his Triumphs ouer his enemeies verse 42. Driuing them as the winde the dust before him trampling them as the clay in the streetes vnder him though this bee also the Salus coronans of our dread Soueraigne and glorious King but onely shew the greatnesse of the dangers which Dauid escaped as more sutable to this late horrible occurrent both in respect of the dangers themselues as first Dolores mortis verse 4. the pangs of death which the imminent expectation put him vnto for the expectation of death is more bitter then death it selfe Secondly Laquei mortis funes inferni verse 6. daungers in the darke treasons in secret treacheries of the Vault Thirdly aquae multae one danger in the necke of another verse 16. And also of the Authors as verse 4. Torrentes iniquitatis streames of wickednesse a concurrence of Conspirators Secondly which is our late case vers 48. Vir iniuriarum or rapinae a cruell blood-thirstie wretch like our Vault-enginer All these of Dauids were great indeed but compared to this of our gracious King the last I trust for a worse there cannot be is but as a minium to a large whether we consider therein eyther the Plot it selfe or the Con-comitance with it or the Consequences of it Plot. FIrst in the Plot obserue I pray you a cruell Execution an inhumane crueltie a brutish immanitie a diuelish brutishnes an Hyperbolicall yea an hyperdiabolicall diuelishnes First Cruelty in the effusiō of blood cursed both of God and man for Cursed art thou from the earth saith God to Cain Genes 4.11 for one mans blood spilt Cursed be the rage for it was cruell saith Iacob of his sonnes Gen. 49.7 in the slaughter of the Shechemites Secondlie Immane crueltie in the multitude of the slaine to make himselfe drunke with the blood of so many Worthies and so innocent for by the reporte of militarie men his prouision was so large that if fire had beene giuen beside the place it selfe at the which hee aymed the Hall of Iudgement the Courtes of Recordes the Collegiate Church the Cittie of Westminster yea White-Hall the Kinges house had beene trushed and ouerthrowne such heapes hee had layde in of Billets Fagots huge stones Iron-crowes Pike-axes great Hammer-heades besides so many barrels of Gun-powder fiue and thirtie in number small and great as I am credebly informed Thirdly his brutish immanity in the manner of the death not man-like to kill but beast-like to discerpe and teare parcell meale the bodies of such personages Ferina rabies est saith Seneca dilaniare non occidere Fourthly his diuelish feritie first for the materials of the death intended Gun-powder which they say none but the diuell the King of the sulphurious pit did inuent secondly for the fierie massacre it should haue made not from heauen as the fire that came downe from aboue vppon Iobs substance Iob. 1.16 For which cause it is there called Ignis Dei but vnder the earth out of a Caue as kindled and sent from the infernall pit The Apostle sayeth That the member which sets on fire Rotam generationis Iames 3.6 The whole course of generation as this shoulde haue done it selfe is set on fire by Hell Fiftly But this more then diuelish for this Diuell of the Vault contented not himselfe with the death of the bodie but reached in his Proiect at the second death of the soule by taking away many so suddenly in their sinnes vnrepented with their mindes vn-prepared I trust that this escape will make many to like the better of the prayer against suddaine death for though I doubt not but if it had beene effected that this whirling blast woulde haue beene vnto our sacred King so Religious in his profession so innocent from wrong so cleare in his conscience as the Whirle-wind and fiery chariot of Elias to haue carried vppe his soule to heauen and that God in his mercy woulde haue made this Deluge of Bloode as Baptismum sanguinis a Baptisme of Martyrdome to haue washt away our sinners and as a Holocaust an whole burnt sacrifice to propitiate his wrath for our Transgressions yet as much as in this Fury it lay he wold haue sent vs all to hell Secondly And still I say a Rage more then diuelish for the Diuell when hee is described to haue 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Apoc. 12.12 to bee in his extreamest rage
