much the awnswerer in effecte replieth to this poynte of the Cardinall An other poynte also he handleth touching father Persons vvhome he saith my L. Treasurer in this proclamation by a certayne calumniation more rediculous then enuious affirmeth to arrogate to himself the name of the King Catholiques confessour vvhich not being so nor likely nor almost possible to be so for that this place and charge requireth a man of the same nation skilfull and practised both in the language and affayres of the country and the saide father not lying or residing in the court but commonly in the Inglish hovvses and colledges either of Vallidolid Ciuil or S. Lucar and no argument or probability offering it self in the vvorld vvhy old Cecil should fall into this so doting an imagination excepte it vvere to scoffe by the vvay at the King of Spaines being called Catholique and hauing of a confessour this defendant taketh occasion hereby to examine these tvvo vvoordes First vvhat this vvord Catholique meaneth hovv it first began euen with the vvord Christian and vvas inuented by the Aposteles themselues and put in to their creed to explicate the other vvord and to restrayne the signification of a Christian or professour of Christe his name in generall vnto a trevv faithfull and obedient Christian for vvhich he alleageth the testimony of an auncient holy Bisshopp named Pacianus that saide Christian is my name but Catholique is my surname by the first I am named but by the second I am knowen proued and distinguisted from all others for which cause also the Aposteles vsed this word Catholique to distinguish the trevv Church of Christe from al other false conuenticles of heretiques and feigned Christians of all vvhich this man inferreth by diuers testimonyes of S. Augustine and other fathers that no name is more glorious in the vvorld then to be called a Catholique and that the Kings of Spaine haue iustly to reioyce and take honour of this tytle geuen them by the sea Apostolique notvvitstanding Maister Cecils scoffe and that it is much more ridiculous apis he in the Ministers of Ingland to geue the tytle of defender of the Catholique faith so solemnely in euery of theire sermons to the Queene of Ingland seing it is a tytle that vvas assigned to her father by Pope Leo the tenth for vvriting only against Luther in defence of papistrie vvhich her Maiestie impugneth and persecuteth to death and therefore to hold the tytle and to deny the faith no man can imagin saith this awnswerer how it can stand together but onely by M. Cecils combinanation that can pach together any thing for his purpose in what kind soeuer For the second vvhy euery Prince should haue a confessour according to the old custome of all Princes this man alleageth many reasons and authorities and namely out of S. Augustine vvho saith that no Christian will refuse to confesse his synnes to a priest that is Gods vicar but onely such as either are cōfounded by shame or beaddy with pryde to their owne damnation vpon this he inferreth what a miserable daungerous state Maister Cecil hath broughte not onely himself but also her Maiestie vnto that whereas other Princes discharge their consciences by confession and receauing absolutiō of the Church appointed by Christe our sauiour euery yeare many tymes her Maiestie hath passed ouer now fower and thirtie yeares without that benefit contrarie to the example of all the Kinges and Queenes of Ingland her noble progenitours that euer were from the firste conuersion of the same vnto her tyme whereof none euer wanted this honour and benefit of a confessour but her self excepte it were perhaps King Edward her brother who being a child and in the handes of others can make no president to the contrary but for King Henry her father he obserued the same also most strictely euen vnto his dying day and made it death vnto him that should contradict the same and so did all his auncestours before him obserue the like moste holy beneficial and Catholique vse in so much that in deed her Maiestie is the very firste of all Inglish Princes that euer hath auentured to caste her soule into that aeternall daunger as to heape fower and thirtie yeares sinnes together without confession or absolution of theChurch and to leaue them to the seuere iudgemēte of almighty God vpon contempte of that spiritual tribunal which he hath assigned in his Church for the remission of the same and all this vpon M Cecils persuasion saith this awnswerer who being oppressed with the multitude of his owne synnes wil not be able to help her Maiestie in that day and for that Cardinall Allen father Persons others of their coate and charitie do pitty her Maiestie in this great danger therefore M. Cecil auoucheth them for traitours VVherefore this Section is concluded vvith a sharpe reprehensiō of my L. Treasurers proceedings woordes and dealings against these two men in special who yet are auouched neuer to haue done him hurt nor to any other protestant that hath passed in Catholique countryes where their credites might haue vvrought them preiudice yf they vvould And in particuler he alleageth how that both these men being in Rome together the yeare 1586. they had vnderstanding of my L. Treasurers grandchild heyre of his howse being secretly there and vvere so farr of from doing him hurte which they mighte haue done as they vsed all curtesie frendship towardes him both in wordes and deedes and procured from the Pope his safe returne which the grandfather that well knoweth thereof and was priuy to the iourney in all law of nobility and ciuilitie were bounde to requite saith this awnswerer yf any seede of the one or the other vertue were in his breste The fifte and last Section THE fifte and laste Section comprehendeth the whole conclusion of the premisses vvith order punishement for the offendors and for that 〈◊〉 this defender affirmeth the said premisses haue bin proued to be moste false forged and malitiously aggrauated by the accuser it is no maruaile though the conclusion be correspondent to the same that is to say moste vniuste and iniurious seing it is inferred and inforced vpon these wordes in the proclamation it self to vvit wherefore considering that these intentions of the King of Spaine are to vs made very manifest vvhich intentions notvvitstāding this awnswerer taketh to be so manifesto by this day vnto all the whole vvorld that there vvere neuer any such as he thinketh that Maister Cecil himself for very shame can not deny it and consequently muste needes confesse in his harte that all this blouddy conclusion of murderinge Catholiques was ouer hastely awarded either vpon vaine feare or vnchristian malice and yet doth the ●…nswerer examine the particuler remedies which 〈◊〉 prescribed in the proclamation against these supposed daungers of the realme and deuised intentions of the King of Spaine And the firste remedie is that the Godly Ministers of
