c. but I having spoke so largely before it is needless to add more about that Point Only take this short account of Phocas to shew that I had good reason to express that Chronological Sentence by the words which he reflects on and cavils at This Phocas was an Officer under the Emperor Mauritius and having opportunity he conspired against his Master and Murdered him his Wife and his five Children and then by an Interest he made in the Army was by them Proclaimed Emperor and finding his Friends few and he like to be shaken he Confederates with the then corrupt Clergy and with that Antichristian Title he bought them to be his Creatures So that by a bloody Murdering Emperor that Antichristian Murdering Brood at Rome was set up and they still retain their Prophane Murdering Principles which they Blasphemously call Religion And this is the Faith and Piety that John Gadbury endeavours to defend Pag. 3. Of the Popish Powder Treason c. Here the Fellow draws a parallel between this Plot and that which he calls Oates's thinking thereby to ridicule it But as for Oates's we have now lived to see most part of what he swore prove true and there can be no question made of the truth of that in 1605. except by Papists who would not have it believed and he is one of those But his main Argument of Objection is that it was a Popish Lord that discovered it Mount-Eagle and therefore it cannot be true The Fellow here makes a very bad Conclusion for by his leave that objection signifies nothing to the truth or falshood of it But it shews that all Papists are not equally wicked and that there are some in whom Humanity and Moral Principles are too strong for their Religion Again he says had the pretended design took effect the Powder could not distinguish between Papists and Protestants that is true and for that reason they had no mind to Murder Papists with Protestants which was the occasion of writing the foresaid Lettter that upon such warning that Lord might forbear coming to the House which some did and were afterward questioned for it But the word pretended shews you what Kidney the Fellow is of and that he doth not believe it and indeed he hath often told me that it was nothing else but a trick of King James and the Presbyterians at that time to Murder the Papists which were for that end and purpose drawn in to Colour the thing But when he speaks of Sir George Wharton that he sings in Consort with him it is to tell you that he is a Papist for Sir George dyed in that persuasion thus you see what Cut Throat Villains our Juggler Defends and Justifies Pag. 3. Of the Burning of London and by whom c. Here honest Jack takes abundance of pains to excuse the Papists and after much shuffling he concludes the Fanaticks Burned it and the reason he gives was this that the Papists would have shewed themselves the most imprudent Men in the World having their Riches and Relations there if they should do it as if the Fanaticks had none there which perhaps he may persuade others to yet knows the contrary himself But pray observe he calls all those Fanaticks that were not declared Papists and that they Burnt the City to anger the King and the Papists Which if true they were really Fanaticks and mad Men to burn about twelve thousand of their own Houses and ruin their Families for no other reason but to anger the King and the Papists as this Fool affirms Ha ha ha And again rather than have it lye at the Papists doors who were the real Authors of it he Charges it upon God Almighty in Conjunction with the Fanaticks and the East wind being all of them Enemies to the King the Papists c. Whence by his own words you may observe that he makes two triple Parties there is God the Fanaticks and the East wind on the one side and the King the Papists and the Devil on the other now what do you think of this Fellow that brings his King in to be a Partner with the Devil who is the great Patron and Father of the Lying Papists Faction and the chief Agent for them in this and all other their Works of Darkness well but it must be the Fanaticks that burned it why Because Lilly had said it was a fit month for designs against the Government and the Fanaticks were Enemies to it so to assist them in the Affair he brings God Almighty in as a Friend to them and an Enemy to the King and yet the Fool says it was burnt out of revenge and he is so particular as to say it was for the blood of Charles the first Now were not these Fanaticks wise fellows to burn their own Houses and ruin themselves to revenge his death and yet this done in spight to his Son O you fool lay your Lyes closer next time well But it seems Nostradamus Prophesied that it should be Burned and that in revenge too and you in your Triggs Almanack Mr. John gave the best time for its Execution as you confess your self and yet for all this we must not believe the Papists Burned it nor that you had any hand in it But for a close of this Point I refer the World to the Report of that Worthy Gentleman Sir Robert Brooks Chairman to the Committee of Parliament appointed to examin the Cause and Authors of that dreadful Fire which was Printed where they will find by full Evidence as clear as the Sun at noon day by whose Order and Encouragement London was Burnt and who rid up and down the City in the Fire-time with his Janizaries to Protect and defend the Fire Instruments and got many of those Men that were taken in the very Act out of the hands of the Civil Officers and conveyed them to Whitehal under pretence of securing them in order to a Condign punishment but instead thereof they were gratified with peresent Reward and future Preferment And that Honorable Gentleman Sir Robert Brooks for his fidelity to God and his Country in discovery of that great Mystery of Iniquity was afterward by the Order and Contrivance of the same Party that caused London to be Burnt Murdered in France All which considered I hope none can have the impudence to doubt who Burnt London except the Authors and Actors in that cursed design And therefore the impudent Shuffles Shams and Excuses of our Scribler Gadbury to take it off from the Papists must be a certain Argument to all thinking Men that they and they only were the Actors and Contrivers thereof which perhaps a little time may give more light to and in the mean time I rest satisfied of the truth of what I have here said and now what will you think of that fellow that turns Advocate for those Miscreants that Burnt your City and also wait for an opportunity to Cut your Throats Page 5. That the Papists
