The Blood-thirsty and deceitful Men shall not live out half their days King Richard himself Slain in Battle hacked hewed and hurried on Horse-back dead most ignominiously being tugged torn and dragged like a Dog They were Priests and Friars that 1. Ed. 4 conspired with Jasper Earl of Pemhrooke for which they were Executed There were likewise several Treasons and Conspiracies against H. the 7th in the Year 1494 1497 1498 1499. Asa a Priest of Ireland was a chief Complotter against the union of the Two Roses So Two Priests Greenwell and Garnet would have destroyed that Blessed Vnion in King James During the Reign of H. the 8. many were executed for several Treasons as 29 April 1536. The Prior of the Charter-house at London the Prior of Bevall the Prior of Exham Reignolds a Brother of Sion and John Haile Vicar of Thissleworth were Condemned and Executed the 4th of May following 18 Junii Three Monks of the Charter-house at London named Exmew Midlemore and Nidigate were Executed for Treason and that without any exclamation in those days that they were executed for Religion a late trick taken up only since the days of Queen Elizabeth though no more reason for that Calumny now than was then § There were also Two Rebellions raised in the North the same year against the King and one in Lincolnshire 1537. for which Twelve were Executed 29 March whereof Five were Priests one Abbot a Suffragan Dr. Mackerel the Vicar of Louth in Lincolnshire and Two Priests In the Year 1538. there was another rebellious commotion in Somersetshire Lawrence Cooke a Prior of Dancalfe William Horne a Lay-Brother of the Charter-house with six others were Executed for Treason The same Year there was a new Rebellion in Yorkshire Many more such good Works have we done for which of them will you stone us or deny us a tolleration or liberty to do more By this short Survey witout travelling beyond Seas which would fill Volumes of like Presidents it s abundantly apparent to all that are not wilfully blind that Papists themselves even before Jesuitism was hatched made it their usual practise to Rebel against their Princes though of the same Faith and Religion with themselves and can it then be reasonably expected that they will ever be Loyal and Faithful to Protestants in their account Heretick Princes especially now Jesuitisme is founded established nay vastly increased and advanced so that indeed they are the only great Apolloes in the See of Rome whose Doctrin it is to Excommunicate depose nay destroy Princes quacumque arte and that uncontrollably for that several Popes have decreed that the Jesuits are Immediate Subjects only to the See of Rome free and exempt from all other Jurisdictions whatsoever and that the Institutions and Doctrins of the Jesuits must not be oppugned nor contradicted directly or indirectly no not by way of Disputation or otherwise Spec. Jesuit 27. However let us see what have been their practises since Jesuitisme first sprung up wkich was about the 31. Year of of H. the 8th in whose time several Papists submitted to death rather than they would quit the Popes Supremacy and acknowledg the Kings which yields certain demonstration of the impossibility of such so principled being faithful Subjects to Protestant Caesars that own the Pope to be his and their Superiour In the Reign of King Edward the 6th which was very short and he himself a Minor there were Rebellions and Commotions in Somersetshire and Lincolnshire for which many were Executed then in Cornwall and Devon where above 4000 were Slain and taken Prisoners by John Lord Russel Lord Privy Seal Then they Rebelled in Norfolk and Suffolk against whom Sir John Dudley Earl of Warwick went with an Army and slew above 5000. and took their Ring Leader About the same time 3090 rose in Rebellion in the North and East-riding of Yorkshire but were suppressed by the Lord President Amongst those Western Rebels Humphrey Arundel was Chief Leader who amongst others with 8 Priests were taken and Executed therefore What were those but Church-men that by their Doctrin in the Pulpit and subscription of Hands to Traiterous Decrees Embassed the Two Daughters of H. 8. both before and after the death of Ed. 6. for satisfaction to the Pride and Ambition of an aspiring Humour In the days of Queen Mary though there were few Treasons committed yet was there much Innocent Christian Blood shed Concerning which I shall make this Observation and Comparison between the Marian and Elizabethian days § In Queen Elizabeths days the Papists put out many traiterous infamous and lying Libels in sundry Languages and reported in other Princes Courts that she put a multitude of persons to torments and death only for professing the Roman Catholick Religion when in truth none of them were questioned for matters of Religion but justly by order of Laws openly condemned as Traytors for treasonable practises against Her Person and State maintaining and adhering to the Pope the Capital Enemy of Her Majesty Camb. 213 214. and her Crown who was not only the cause of several Rebellions in England and Ireland but in one of Ireland did manifestly maintain at his own charge Commanders and Souldiers under the Banner of Rome against the Queen so as no Enemy could do more and that not not by force of new Laws either for Religion or against the Popes Supremacy as the slanderous Libellers would have it seem to be but by the Ancient Laws of the Realm made in Edward the Third's time about the Year 1330. above 200. Years before even when the Popes were suffered to have some Authority-Ecclesiastical in this Realm as he had in other Countries They gave out also that they dyed because they would not acknowledg Her the Supreme Head of the Church which was a most apparent untruth visibly to be contradicted by the very Acts of Parliament For at the beginning of Her Reign that very Title was omitted in Her Style And to make the matter seem more horrible and
infatuated as ever to put power into their Hands who have so often given such palpable Demonstration and Testimony how they have used it already and such pregnant presumptions how they would use it again could they obtain it Even they that run may read what the Papists like Jehu drive so furionsly at even to make England once more Issachar like to couch and carry the Saddle Vah Papae shall it ever be again the style and reproach of England Glorious England that is scituate among the Rivers whose Rampart is the Sea and whose God is the Lord to carry the Saddle again God forbid But if so unhappy so unfortunate I 'le prophesie that not the Pope only but the Devil will ride her Pardon these Expressions I have encouragement from St. Jerome Neminem volo patientem esse in causalaesae fidei and from Moses the Mirror of meekness who knows no patience in Israels Idolatry Numb 12.3 Exod. 22.19 26 27. Idem manens idem semper facit idem THE REAL MERITS OF THE PAPISTS SUch hath the Confidence of the Papists of these latter times been as to claim a Right unto the Kings Majesties favour for a tolleration of their Religion upon the account of their great Merits as having best deserved of His Majesty because of all they were the most faithful to him and his Father The purport of this hath not only been averred by the generality of them in their ordinary discourses but also set out in print by several of them P. W. R. P. J. S. H. M. and others At which confident Assertion of theirs when I consider how boldly and feircly the contend for meritorious works nay for works of super-errogation even with God himself I do not so much wonder that such Merit-mongers broach it so confidently now as that they have not done it all this while § He that is first in his own Cause seemeth just but his Neighbours cometh and searcheth him Prov. 18.17 Which that we may the better do we will only a little look back into our own Chronicle without cloying the Reader with like Foreign Stories which would fill Volumes and first see how true and trusty Trojans the Papists have been to the Kings of England no Protestants but Papists and if they shall be found to have been neither true nor trusty but Traytors and Rebels to the Kings of their own Religion can it then ever be believed or hoped that they ever will be Loyal and Faithful to Protestant Princes when a neat opportunity offers the contrary and that Maugre all Roman Mandates to the contrary what Prince or other Sovereign foberly considers the new founded Society of Jesuits erected by Pope Paul the 3d. about 1540. who although at first but 10 in Number yet so wonderfully encreased since that they bragged not a few years ago that they were 1300010. they lived in Colledges and places of residence besides those that trotted up and down that they had 359. Colledges or Schools 18 Domus professae 40 Domus probationis 8 Seminaries 1010 Residentiaries Vide speculum Jesuiticum Runninge Register And what their Principles and Doctrins are and what their practices have been for the destroying of all Princes quacumque Arte that will not become Vassals to the See of Rome and and acknowledg a Spiritual Monarchy in that Roman Chair paramount all temporal Crowns and Scepters and how strict and of what extant their vow of Obedience is to the Roman Bishop and how it is decreed by several Popes that the Institutions and Doctrins of the Jesuits must not be contradicted or disputed by any Ordinary Delegate Judg or Magistrate and how vastly that society is enlarged both in their Clergy and Layety since these great brags of theirs will be sufficiently convinced that neither their persons or their Kingdoms can ever be secure where either one sort or other are suffered to flourish § Let us now see matter of Fact Did not Pope Alexander the 3d. by violence and tyranny force King H. the II. to surrender his Crown Imperial into the hand of his Legate and afterwards be content with a private Condition for a while to the great regret and Indignation of his Subjects Did not Innocent the 3d. stir up the Nobility and Commonalty of this Kingdom against King John and gave the Inheritance and Possession of all his Dominions unto Ludovicus the French King What were those 52 000. but Papists that rebelled against Richard the I. Anno 1196. And all those that rebelled against Edward the II. Anno 1316 1317 1321 1322 1326. Amongst whom was Robert Baldock Bishop of Norwich and Lord Chancellor of England And all those that consented to the Murder of Edward the Third's Father and fought to kill john of Gaunt Duke of Lancaster Edward the Third's Son Anno 1330.1372 And those in Richard the Third's time Anno 1381. Annimated by John Ball a Priest who at his Execution refused to ask the King forgiveness and despised him so peremptory was he Jack Straw confessing that when he sent for the King to Black-Heath they purposed to have murdered all Knights Esquires and Gentlemen that should have come with him and when they had got sufficient force they would suddenly then have put to death in every County and Lords and Masters of the Common people in whom might appear to be either Council or Resistance one Argument used by some of the late Protectorians for the death of our Glorious King and Martyr that he was too knowing and too intelligent to be suffered to live and especially they would have killed the Knights of St. John and all Men of any Possessions only Begging Fryars should have lived that might have Administred the Sacraments throughout the Realm and lastly the would have killed the King himself and made Kings in every Shire Thomas Arrundel Arch-Bishop of Canterbury traiterously practiced the deposing of the said Richard his lawful Sovereign § It were no very mild conjecture to Divine that our late Generation of Levellers Major Generals Quakers and Phanaticks were spawned from them and that they are still but Badgers plotting and digging Holes for Romish Foxes to lie couchant and covertly in for their more subtile contrivances § What were those but Papists that rebelled against H. the 4th designing to Murder him under the colour of Justinge and other pastimes pretended 1399. And also those who raised Arms against him among whom was John Madelyn a Priest who had been Chaplain to King Richard and impudently personated the King They were Priests and Friars that suborned a False Richard whereof 8 being Miners were hanged at Tyburne Oswald Bishop of Galloway was the chief Plotter against Richard the 2d in the Year 1403. A Priest of Warwick and also Walter Waldock a Prior of Laud in Leicester-Shire and one Richard Freseby a Dr. in Divinity was Executed in his Religious Habit and Weede and not long after 10 Grey Fryars were executed all for Treason In the year 1404.
