Kings 22.11.24 though he be fed with Bread and Water till these Euroclydons be blown over So most excellent and glorious Prince I beg Pardon as prostrate at your most Soveraign feet for this act of seeming-presumption while I acknowledge my self nothing yet in the hand of God things that are not may instruct things that are Beside the present Necessity the horrid and trembling sounds of the Plot and Plotters Alarming my Ears my obsequious duty to my King and love to my Native Country is the Womb that hath conceived and brought forth this Trembling Babe Which although in its Infancy may to the future admiration of the securest Lethargists in this Nation be credited as a Child of Truth by that time bright Phoebus hath twice mounted the twelve Herculean Pillars I remember it was asserted by that Reverend Bishop James Vsher Bishop of Armagh sometimes in Ireland That those Predictions that fell from him most of which are fulfilled already were imprinted and engraven on his Spirit even so are these things that now I write to my Soveraign Lord the King and Country And moreover if it be true or like to be true that is reported to us by the Speech of the Dead in Nocturnal Visions as is famously reported by antient Philosophers as Artemidorus and the famous Remembrances of Julius Caesar his Warning before his Death and fatal Stab in the Roman Senate cum multis aliis then have I reason to fear the Impression of these things on my Spirit and these scaring Visions of the Night which for some years past I have sustained concerning the Person and Crown of your Sacred Majesty and also of him and them who have raised the Thunder and Tempest in this our Horizon As also the just fears we may have of the sudden Fall of your Life and Crown by the hand or hands of Papists And that except your Majesty be miraculously defended by supream Providence and the timely Remissions by his mighty hand and also your Royal Adherence and just and methodical Conjunction to your great Council the Parliament and so joyntly removing the Nations Grievances and those things offending the King of Kings and timely and speedily executing Justice upon the notorous Offenders of your Majesties Crown and State and of the Church of Christ it cannot be but that before either your Majesty or we are well aware they you now by your boundless Clemency indulge beyond Necessity will give the fatal stroak to your sacred Life and in yours to all your Subjects who have the Breast-plate of Christs Righteousness upon them and the marks of the Whore of Babylon cashiered from you to the Conformists and Nonconformists and that I trembling fear in the 1680th year O! would your Majesty please speedily to extirpate out of your Royal Territories and this City of London all those Amalekites that trouble Israel I mean the French that devour and eat the bread out of your Subjects mouths and may you ever remember that King Saul for neglecting the Word of the Lord and not totally destroying Amalek had his life dishonourably taken from him by a Chip of that block 1 Sam. 15. compared with 2 Sam. 1.13 Antiquity tells us our English nation was never more blessed with Peace and Prosperity than when the French Nation were conquered by us as by Henry the fifth of famous memory and Henry the sixth who was crowned in Paris and planted the Flower-de-luce in Englands garden But now it is to be feared that the French King will be crowned not in the French but our English Paris London except the providence of the King of kings divert present occurrences and the prudence of your most Excellent Majesty in happy Conjunction with your prudent Parliament prevent it which that you may the God of Heaven grant 'T is a Curse in Gods Word to be governed or counselled by the Spirit of Jezabel or by a wicked woman Isai 3.12.15 16.
