A46843 King Charles I, no such saint, martyr or good Protestant as commonly reputed, but a favourer of Papists and a cruel and oppressive tyrant all plainly proved from undeniable matters of fact : to which are added Dr. Burnet's, now Bishop of Salisbury, and other reasons, against the keeping up any longer the observation of a fast on the 30th of January : as also short answers to these three questions, I, what is the occasion of the clergies pride and lording it over the laity, II, why they and many of the laity cry up this king for a saint, martyr, &c., III, what is the true reason that the generality of the clergy, and many of the laity, both lawyers and others, are constant advocates for kings, tho never so wicked, and sacrificers of the people.

for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n or_o the_o good_a of_o his_o three_o kingdom_n except_o constrain_v by_o his_o people_n thereunto_o for_o a_o conclusion_n of_o this_o discourse_n i_o shall_v make_v a_o few_o remark_n which_o i_o hope_v if_o well_o observe_v may_v be_v very_o useful_a not_o only_o to_o this_o present_a age_n but_o to_o posterity_n 1._o i_o shall_v give_v a_o short_a answer_n to_o this_o question_n why_o do_v the_o generality_n of_o the_o clergy_n and_o laity_n so_o much_o adore_v and_o idolise_v all_o monarch_n whether_o good_a or_o bad_a above_o the_o people_n the_o reason_n be_v plain_a the_o people_n have_v nothing_o material_a in_o a_o monarchical_a government_n to_o bestow_v upon_o these_o court_n parasite_n for_o the_o king_n have_v the_o disposal_n of_o the_o bishopric_n deanery_n prebendary_n archdeaconry_n and_o most_o other_o great_a live_n and_o also_o most_o of_o the_o temporal_a beneficial_a place_n as_o chancellor_n judge_n and_o other_o great_a office_n from_o such_o a_o sort_n of_o man_n as_o these_o nothing_o but_o court-doctrine_n can_v be_v expect_v for_o they_o be_v well_o assure_v shall_v they_o preach_v or_o write_v for_o the_o right_n or_o privilege_n of_o the_o people_n in_o arbitrary_a reign_n it_o will_v be_v the_o ready_a way_n to_o dash_v all_o their_o hope_n of_o preferment_n into_o piece_n and_o here_o i_o can_v but_o make_v a_o melancholy_a observation_n as_o to_o the_o clergy_n in_o general_n of_o the_o late_a reign_n viz._n that_o by_o all_o i_o can_v hear_v or_o read_v they_o have_v be_v so_o far_o from_o be_v christian_a advocate_n for_o the_o right_n and_o privilege_n of_o million_o of_o people_n that_o they_o have_v in_o a_o most_o wicked_a manner_n promote_v and_o preach_v up_o those_o doctrine_n that_o plain_o tend_v to_o make_v they_o miserable_a and_o last_a slave_n indeed_o i_o must_v confess_v some_o few_o of_o they_o have_v signalise_v themselves_o for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o people_n and_o against_o popery_n particular_o that_o incomparable_a phoenix_n of_o our_o age_n mr._n samvel_n johnson_n a_o person_n that_o by_o his_o sensible_a conversation_n and_o his_o golden_a work_n have_v do_v more_o service_n to_o rescue_v england_n from_o popery_n and_o slavery_n and_o secure_a english_a man_n right_n and_o privilege_n than_o most_o if_o not_o all_o the_o bishop_n and_o
