parts and also to bestow on so true a Convert who indeed ought to have been cherished But being troubled with a Flux which seized on him continuing for several weeks before he expired at last it took him out of this World upon the third of September 1590. having during his sickness received the Sacrament of the Lords Supper and continuing a true Churchman unto his end During that small time whilst I was so happy as to converse with him I delighted in his conversation and several times discoursed with him touching the late Grand Council of Trent and of what things that Council had done as touching the Protestants of these Her Majesties Realms to which he seriously related as I took the words from his own mouth at several times upon discourse as follows 1. That the Council had Enacted in their Litany to be said upon every Good Friday as also upon any great Fast proclaimed or to be proclaimed to Curse all Heretical Kings Princes and States personally naming them amongst whom he assured me they have named her Majesty and also all their Heretical Subjects obeying their Commands and Powers 2. That Her Majesties Kingdoms of England and Ireland are to be given to any Prince or Nation Conquering them especially to Spain as He married the Queens Sister yet to the first who shall attempt it Ireland being not to be disposed of in case of Conquest but to be restored to the Ancient Race lineally descended of the Princes of that Nation They swearing unto the Chair of St. Peters to own that See the Chief Head thereof as it is called Insula Sacra upon Record 3. That every Roman Catholick in England or Ireland having two or more Sons of any Quality or Estate should train them up in either of these Callings or Trades Doctors of the Law Lawyers Physitians Clerks Agents Vintners Inn-keepers Apothecaries Grocers Brewers Victuallers c. for several Causes best known to the Mother Church as being most convenient for her Aid in service when ever required 4. That all Deeds held by Roman Catholicks or other Ecclesiastical Lands be Entred and Reposed privately under the Signet of Rome the Party enjoying the same until the Catholick Faith be restored then such Deeds appearing upon Record the possessor if Catholick to be reprieved out of Hereticks Estates 5. That all Oaths taken by compulsion or otherwise are of no force or tye as the translation of their Bible is heretical and false therefore the Catholick swearing thereupon is all one as upon any common Book the Catholick esteeming the same so to be his Oath though false is no sin 6 That no Catholick marry with any Heretick unless it be upon great necessity or advancement for the Catholick who affirms before-hand he or she doth it for no other intent but to advance the Roman Faith and so to continue to the end Then by a Dispensation from the Confessor vowing to continue stedfast and to perform the promises confessed before the Marriage to be granted and permitted 7. That Dispensations be granted to the Wise and Learned sort of Catholicks for Oaths for Religion for Place for Office or otherwise provided that the Party shall four or more times in the year confess unto any Secular or Regular he is in his heart a Romanist and so after upon Confession to testifie the certifying thereof to shew signal assurance of their fidelity to the See of Rome 8. That any of these sorts permitted or so licensed shall in all Protestant Courts of Princes give monthly Intelligences more or less as signal assurances of their stedfastness to the See of Rome 9. That Excommunication or a perpetual Curse light upon the Families of all those of the Mother Church who will not promote or assist by means of Money or otherwise Mary Queen of Scotland to the Crown of England 10. That all Roman Catholicks be and shall be obedient to those Archbishops or other Popish Priests set over them privately as if they were openly ruling over them and to relieve them pay tribute or tax proportionably for the advance of the Mother Church 11. And lastly that under-hand they propose a Match for the Queen of some Catholick Roman King or Prince or if she dye to set up Mary Queen of Scotland or some other Romish Prince for the advancement of the Mother Church These and several other like passages I heard from this good and glorious Convert who during his life after his Recantation made great progress in the conversion of others and that not in vain having converted the Mayor of Drogheda his Wife and several others in the Town before his death I dare not say that he was poysoned but there was much suspition as if the Fryers had done something to him for he was ever and anon arguing with them in Disputations FINIS Acts 13. 50. Phil. 3. 6. The Evil Event of Immoderate Zeal Vide Alexand. Ross his View of Religions Ovid lib. 2. The Archbishop of Armagh maketh the Archbishop of Dublin acquainted with this Letter This Converts return to Ireland The Convert designs to make an open Recantation With what Intention the Convert went before his Conversion towards Rome The Converts Offers which he rejected as also the Policy of Rome in absconding the Truth of the holy Gospel Philip Corwine his sensibility of the Laws of England how near they be to the Truth to what other Country Laws are He compares Romes tyranny to the heathen Persecutions and sets forth how they rob Kings of their Titles The cruel Martyrdom of eight persons at Rome for the Truth How their Union amazed the Convert and was a means of his Conversion to the Truth How the Convert thought to divert himself and was prickt in conscience His second shift to divert himself and how he lighted on the xciv Psalm being sutable for persecution and tribulation How the Convert resolved to leave Rome supposing thereby to divert himself but still was troubled in mind How the Spanish Inquisition troubled this Convert How the Convert was rebuked by the two Franciscans for his Commiseration to the poor Innkeeper How the Convert returned into the Garden to bewail himself Here the Convert receives comfort and is stedfast to his end Ezekiel cap. 18. ver 27 28. How he was altered and gave God thanks for his deliverance How he concealed his Conversion And how he confesseth he wrote the Letter before mentioned Thus he concludes with this Rapture The Converts death The projects of the Council at Trent against Engl. confessed to Archbishop John Garvey of Armagh by this Convert A good reason why Papists Oaths against Protestants should not be credited
