A poore subiect sendeth, a souldiors resolution; humbly to waite vpon his Maiestie In this little booke the godly vertues of our mighty King are specified, with disscription [sic] of our late Queene, (and still renowned) Elizas gouernement: the Pope and papists are in their colours set forth, their purposes laid open, and their hopes dissolued, the happie peace of England is well described, and the long continuance thereof humbly prayed for.

resolue with a Souldiers Resolution to follow your kingly Maiestie in your vertues steppes and not to suffer a little Monkish Mowle hill heape of tongues that rides vpon the skirt of Peeuish Popery to derogate from your kingly name the glory due vnto the honour of your faithes profession nor suffer that the godlie people in your land whose heartes prepareth as befitteth loyall faithfull and obedient Subiectes to bid your Highnes welcome to your Kingdomes Crowne that the ioy which they conceiue in the excellencie of your great Maiestie should be eclipsed by the inftigation of any secret Papisticall obiected doubt what should let my resolution to speake plainely to my King whole Highnes knoweth what drudges are sent from Rome and therefore will not take Phisicke for his soule from their impoysoned proiected potions The Chronicles with innumerable Tragike scenes haue made discription of the Roman regement shewing to the world that not any king nor Queene nor Prince in Christendome that euer did displease that proud vsurping Bishop since he rulde alone and gainde vnto himselfe the name of Papa but they were all of them eyther poysoned murdered or otherwise betrayed or their lands inuaded or their Subiects moued to rebellion or many times nearly brought in danger of those euils eyther by Monkes Fryers Iesuites Seminaries or some other villanous minded slaues sent from the Popes diuelishnes but mis named Holines to put in execution those three damned purposes Bohemia Lombardy Germany France bleeding Belgia haue bought their to true experience with a deare and bloudy prise And though that Spaine be Romes chiefe Champion yet king Philips eldest sonne euen in his Fathers sight must bleed to death when he displeasde the Pope England hath had a hard experience of his Tyranny and in the dayes of Queene Elizabeth the multiplisity of trayterous plottes laide against her life all wrought by Romes confederates were to long to specifie and for your Scotlandes Kingdome Mighty Soueraigne neyther your royall person nor your publike state haue stoode exempt from their most vilde attemptes and assuredly my Soueraigne Lorde no other then such like strategems are to be expected from their hands who by their oathes haue sworne and vowed allegiance to the Sea of Rome yet among them but not of them is there some that giues themselues vnto the vse of ceremoniall customes first brought in by Rome and yet no doubt they see the hellish euils that springes from thence but what they do is done for fashion for custom sake and peraduenture with some religious obseruation yet in their heartes I verily belieue they hate the proudnes of the Popes supremacie and grieues to see the Villanies wrought by his Workemanshippe and such as these I thinke are nothing dangerous for I haue obserued in them a due obedience to your Englandes lawes but for the former sort your Maiestie knoweth the daunger of their euill effects for be they but once reconciled to the Pope so as they dare not like louing and obedient Subiectes take their oath to your supremacie it cannot be but their intentions must be dangerous they cannot in their harts endure to be your subiects but as they lately were her Maiesties in cōtinuall hope of change nor doe I wonder at their minds in this for their subiection hath vowed it self an other way and vpon the pain of deadly sin their consciences are tied vnto the lawes of Antichrist they are taught by the doctrine of Rome Romane dispensations to suppose that vnto you belongeth no obedience then vnto them I am sure there belonges no trust And for the schollers that the scholes of Rome Spaine brings vp your kingly self and al your kingdoms haue by an often taught experience learnd the true vnderstāding of their traiterous documents Iesuites Seminaries and Popish Priests I do resolue will neuer be thought to loue your Maiestie nor cā they at any time deceiue your Highnes when they are at no time trusted surely no trust to them belongeth that are the empoysoned branches sprong from the venomous heade of earthes corruption And because I would not haue the Papists thinke I speake by gesse but want authority whereon to ground my selfe I haue to that end set downe some of the dangerous decrees made by the lawes of their misbeleeuing church for the Pope to establish his diuelish authority hath thus decreed First that no man may iudge the Pope nor giue sentence about his iudgement for he is to iudge al men vpon earth 2 That the seat of Rome giueth strength might vnto all lawes but it is subiect to none 3 That hee hath authority to breake all oathes bondes and obligations made betwixt any man of high or low degree 4 That he hath power to interprete declare and lay forth the holy scriptures according to his own will and to suffer no man to expound it contrary to his owne pleasure 5 That he is a God vpon earth ouer all heauenly earthly ghostly and worldly and no man may say vnto him what doest thou 6 That he hath authority to dissolue subiectes from their obedience to their Lordes and Princes and that he hath power to depose kings 7 That he may giue cleane remission vnto whom he will both a pena a culpa he whom he forgiueth must needs be the child of saluation for he hath absolute power to bind to loose vpon earth and saith he the holy Church hath so determined and the force thereof as faith his lying blasphemy is greater then the canonicall scriptures From the authority of these lawes doth this effect proceed that so soone as any Prince displeafeth Rome he is presently by the pope cursed excōmunicated proclaimed no right inheritor that it is not lawfull for to hold of him his subiects are absolued frō their true alegāce blessings with clean remissiō of sins sent to all those that wil inuade spoile or conquer the land of any kingdom or Prince with whom the Pope shall be displeased And the beter to effect these his often performed deeds of charitie he sendeth his leaden Bulles vnto whome hee listeth thereby giuing authoritie vnto subiects to resist their kings and lustely to take vp armes against them when by the Pope they shall be commaunded Their oathes for their allegiance are dispensed with so as although a subiect betray murder or by any meanes kill his lawfull Prince and Gods annoynted king yet shall not their accounted very honest executioner bee adiudged a traytor but rather a holy man for that hee hath done it on the Popes behalfe and in that respect his acte shall bee registred for a heauen purchasing meritorious deede and after the death of such a one there shall be diuers misnamed holy but vnhallowed Masses sung by a company of blacke white gray and pibal asses for the redeeming of his soule out of their fooles inuented
