A96590 The discovery of mysteries: or, The plots and practices of a prevalent faction in this present Parliament. To overthrow the established religion, and the well setled government of this glorious Church, and to introduce a new framed discipline (not yet agreed upon by themselves what it shall be) to set up a new invented religion, patched together of Anabaptisticall and Brownisticall tenents, and many other new and old errors. And also, to subvert the fundamentall lawes of this famous kingdome, by devesting our King of his just rights, and unquestionable royall prerogatives, and depriving the subjects of the propriety of their goods, and the liberty of their persons; and under the name of the priviledge of Parliament, to exchange that excellent monarchicall government of this nation, into the tyrannicall government of a faction prevailing over the major part of their well-meaning brethren, to vote and order things full of all injustice, oppression and cruelty, as may appeare out of many, by these few subsequent collections of their proceedings. / By Gr. Williams L. Bishop of Ossory. Williams, Gryffith, 1589?-1672. 1643 (1643) Wing W2665; Thomason E60_1; Thomason E104_27; ESTC R23301 95,907 126

with_o many_o rare_a heroic_a virtue_n and_o most_o excellent_a grace_n as_o among_o the_o rest_n with_o those_o two_o incomparable_a endowment_n that_o can_v easy_o be_v find_v among_o many_o of_o

sufficient_o testify_v unto_o all_o posterity_n which_o speech_n be_v to_o this_o effect_n and_o i_o will_v to_o god_n it_o be_v indeleble_o imprint_v in_o the_o memory_n of_o all_o our_o nobility_n that_o as_o he_o regard_v his_o father_n blessing_n or_o expect_v a_o blessing_n from_o god_n upon_o what_o his_o father_n leave_v he_o so_o he_o will_v be_v careful_a never_o to_o take_v away_o or_o in_o any_o wise_a to_o diminish_v any_o part_n or_o parcel_n of_o the_o good_n or_o patrimony_n of_o the_o church_n which_o if_o he_o do_v will_v prove_v a_o canker_n to_o waste_v and_o consume_v all_o that_o he_o have_v yet_o it_o may_v be_v he_o be_v which_o in_o truth_n i_o can_v imagine_v as_o the_o philosopher_n say_v of_o marcus_n antonius_n a_o man_n of_o that_o composition_n that_o his_o vice_n do_v equalise_v if_o not_o exceed_v his_o virtue_n and_o his-offence_n cloud_v all_o his_o grace_n and_o obscure_v all_o his_o glory_n and_o as_o the_o save_n of_o one_o man_n life_n can_v save_v he_o from_o suffering_n that_o do_v unjust_o put_v another_o man_n to_o death_n so_o the_o rare_a virtue_n can_v justify_v the_o man_n that_o commit_v so_o many_o horrible_a offence_n condemn_v how_o a_o malefactor_n may_v be_v unjust_o condemn_v as_o his_o accuser_n conceive_v this_o man_n do_v to_o which_o it_o may_v be_v well_o reply_v that_o a_o notorious_a malefactor_n though_o i_o apply_v not_o this_o to_o he_o may_v be_v unjust_o condemn_v and_o so_o he_o may_v be_v just_o condemn_v and_o unjust_o execute_v as_o when_o he_o be_v not_o condemn_v for_o the_o fault_n commit_v or_o condemn_v not_o according_a to_o the_o law_n which_o condemn_v that_o fact_n for_o though_o a_o murderer_n deserve_v death_n yet_o any_o one_o may_v not_o present_o be_v the_o death_n of_o that_o murderer_n nor_o the_o judge_n condemn_v he_o for_o robbery_n and_o though_o i_o shall_v commit_v many_o offence_n worthy_a of_o death_n yet_o if_o the_o law_n do_v not_o condemn_v i_o i_o ought_v not_o to_o die_v for_o any_o of_o they_o for_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v where_o there_o be_v no_o law_n there_o be_v no_o sin_n because_o sin_n be_v the_o transgression_n of_o the_o law_n therefore_o the_o earl_n of_o strafford_n may_v be_v a_o evil_a man_n and_o do_v many_o thing_n that_o in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o good_a man_n be_v worthy_a of_o death_n yet_o if_o our_o law_n make_v not_o those_o crime_n capital_a or_o if_o the_o law_n make_v they_o capital_a and_o not_o treason_n we_o ought_v not_o for_o treason_n to_o adjudge_v he_o unto_o death_n so_o in_o sum_n the_o result_n be_v this_o that_o he_o may_v just_o deserve_v death_n and_o yet_o be_v very_o unjust_o condemn_v to_o death_n and_o it_o seem_v to_o some_o of_o his_o friend_n that_o so_o he_o be_v especial_o because_o they_o have_v no_o plain_a unquestionable_a law_n but_o be_v fain_o in_o some_o kind_n to_o make_v a_o law_n to_o take_v off_o his_o head_n and_o when_o his_o head_n be_v off_o this_o new_a manner_n of_o proceed_v shall_v end_v and_o be_v no_o law_n for_o any_o other_o that_o come_v after_o and_o a_o declaration_n must_v be_v make_v that_o the_o course_n prosecute_v for_o

clergy_n how_o fit_a to_o be_v judge_n to_o do_v the_o least_o injustice_n to_o their_o person_n so_o our_o love_n of_o mercy_n and_o pity_n will_v not_o suffer_v we_o to_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o
