a_o second_o remonstrance_n by_o way_n of_o address_n from_z the_o church_n of_o england_n to_o both_o house_n of_o parliament_n my_o lord_n and_o gentleman_n i_o hope_v the_o tender_a concern_v of_o a_o mother_n for_o she_o child_n safety_n and_o the_o tie_n of_o nature_n for_o self_n preservation_n will_v sufficient_o apologise_v for_o this_o my_o second_o remonstrance_n and_o i_o hope_v if_o either_o piety_n towards_o my_o child_n or_o solicitude_n for_o myself_o or_o both_o shall_v make_v i_o seem_v importune_a or_o as_o you_o may_v think_v too_o apprehensive_a nature_n will_v be_v my_o plea_n which_o can_v hinder_v the_o one_o and_o also_o command_v the_o other_o yet_o i_o can_v think_v my_o apprehension_n vain_a nor_o my_o importunity_n unseasonable_a when_o i_o consider_v what_o mischief_n the_o basilisk_n may_v do_v if_o not_o crush_v in_o the_o egg_n what_o conflagration_n have_v be_v occasion_v from_o neglect_a spark_n and_o what_o country_n and_o kingdom_n have_v be_v embroil_v and_o ruin_v for_o not_o obviate_a small_a beginning_n i_o be_o concern_v for_o you_o and_o all_o my_o child_n and_o you_o ought_v also_o to_o be_v concern_v with_o i_o both_o for_o i_o and_o for_o your_o self_n i_o be_o concern_v for_o the_o king_n and_o the_o kingdom_n good_a and_o quiet_a and_o you_o ought_v equal_o to_o share_v with_o i_o in_o this_o concern_v for_o when_o i_o see_v rebellion_n begin_v to_o appear_v barefaced_a and_o my_o fanatic_a enemy_n flock_v to_o a_o ungrateful_a aspire_a wretch_n i_o can_v but_o think_v that_o though_o his_o and_o their_o cry_n be_v the_o security_n of_o the_o protestant_a religion_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o the_o protestant_a religion_n as_o by_o law_n establish_v it_o be_v not_o i_o they_o mean_v thereby_o but_o a_o religion_n compose_v of_o all_o dissenter_n it_o be_v not_o episcopacy_n they_o will_v secure_v but_o on_o the_o contrary_n i_o fear_v pull_v down_o under_o the_o name_n of_o popery_n or_o rather_o if_o we_o look_v upon_o their_o practice_n though_o religion_n be_v in_o their_o mouth_n we_o may_v assure_v ourselves_o it_o be_v not_o in_o their_o intention_n see_v they_o destroy_v the_o very_a foundation_n of_o it_o by_o rebellion_n no_o no_o it_o be_v not_o religion_n it_o be_v ambition_n and_o des_fw-mi …_o animate_v the_o unthinking_a tool_n their_o leader_n it_o be_v not_o religion_n it_o be_v 〈◊〉_d hatred_n of_o monarchy_n excite_v the_o republican_n to_o invite_v he_o in_o and_o lend_v he_o their_o assistance_n it_o be_v not_o religion_n it_o be_v a_o delight_n to_o fish_n in_o trouble_a water_n and_o to_o enrich_v themselves_o by_o the_o spoil_n of_o other_o cause_v the_o crowd_n to_o follow_v he_o and_o if_o some_o be_v lead_v by_o a_o zeal_n no_o less_o criminal_a than_o blind_a for_o religion_n they_o be_v but_o like_o their_o leader_n tool_n in_o the_o hand_n of_o knave_n who_o shall_v they_o obtain_v their_o end_n which_o god_n forbid_v will_v throw_v they_o by_o as_o useless_a when_o therefore_o i_o see_v ambition_n grasp_a at_o a_o crown_n as_o the_o last_o refuge_n of_o desperation_n when_o i_o see_v republican_n spirit_n lend_v their_o assistance_n to_o pull_v down_o monarchy_n when_o i_o see_v the_o discontent_a hungry_a rabble_n flock_v together_o in_o hope_n once_o more_o to_o enrich_v themselves_o by_o the_o ruin_n both_o of_o church_n and_o state_n and_o when_o i_o see_v blind_v zealot_n cry_v up_o religion_n with_o all_o the_o other_o damn_a crew_n of_o rebel_n whilst_o they_o all_o join_v hand_n to_o pluck_v it_o down_o i_o think_v i_o have_v great_a reason_n to_o fear_v my_o own_o and_o my_o dear_a child_n ruin_n and_o to_o offer_v up_o my_o poor_a endeavour_n towards_o our_o common_a security_n from_o the_o rage_n of_o those_o plod_a knave_n and_o hood_n wink_v fool_n i_o know_v no_o think_v person_n who_o be_v either_o zealous_a for_o i_o or_o the_o kingdom_n good_a and_o quiet_a will_v ever_o join_v with_o they_o for_o they_o can_v but_o see_v the_o method_n these_o pretend_a zealot_n take_v to_o secure_a religion_n be_v the_o only_a mean_n to_o ruin_v it_o we_o find_v ourselves_o safe_o shelter_v under_o the_o promise_n of_o our_o most_o great_a and_o gracious_a sovereign_n and_o we_o see_v and_o experience_n in_o this_o as_o in_o all_o other_o thing_n his_o constancy_n to_o his_o promise_n but_o it_o behoove_v we_o to_o reflect_v this_o promise_n be_v conditional_a if_o we_o be_v true_a to_o monarchy_n those_o therefore_o who_o join_v with_o or_o abett_a rebellion_n against_o their_o lawful_a prince_n have_v neither_o right_a nor_o title_n to_o his_o promise_n as_o have_v break_v the_o necessary_a condition_n require_v by_o it_o religion_n be_v and_o always_o have_v be_v the_o common_a cry_n of_o rebel_n but_o what_o religion_n must_v that_o be_v which_o take_v its_o rise_n and_o its_o security_n from_o rebellion_n i_o be_o sure_a it_o can_v be_v orthodox_n which_o do_v so_o manifest_o thwart_v the_o gospel_n that_o teach_v due_a submission_n no_o no_o it_o be_v not_o religion_n but_o interest_n sway_v such_o monster_n as_o this_o ungrateful_a rebel_n and_o we_o may_v assure_v ourselves_o also_o that_o those_o republican_n who_o help_v to_o set_v up_o such_o a_o tool_n and_o lead_v the_o rabble-rout_n by_o the_o plausible_a cry_n of_o religion_n intend_v no_o other_o but_o a_o republican_n religion_n as_o well_o as_o government_n and_o then_o a_o farewell_n be_v give_v to_o monarchy_n we_o must_v give_v a_o farewell_n also_o to_o episcopacy_n and_o your_o mother_n the_o church_n of_o

of_o a_o tender_a and_o a_o royal_a father_n and_o prefer_v the_o life_n of_o those_o conspirator_n who_o seduce_v he_o before_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o king_n &_o kingdom_n have_v any_o sense_n

have_v show_v yourselves_o true_a and_o loyal_a subject_n to_o your_o king_n and_o zealous_a for_o the_o welfare_n and_o honour_n of_o the_o nation_n can_v intend_v any_o thing_n but_o your_o and_o

the_o fruit_n thereof_o be_v always_o bitter_a it_o may_v promise_v much_o in_o the_o blossom_n but_o the_o fruit_n though_o fair_a in_o appearance_n be_v poisonous_a in_o the_o effect_n it_o behoove_v you_o therefore_o my_o dear_a child_n to_o endeavour_v by_o all_o mean_n to_o defend_v his_o sacred_a majesty_n against_o his_o enemy_n upon_o who_o the_o future_a quiet_a and_o glory_n of_o
