A85584 Great Britans [sic] vote: or, God save King Charles. A treatise seasonably published this 27th. day of March, the happy inauguration of his sacred (though now despised and imprisoned) Maiesty. Wherein is proved by many plaine texts of Scripture, that the resisting, imprisoning, or deposing our King, under what specious pretences soever couched, is not onely unlawfull but damnable. 1648 (1648) Wing G1670; Thomason E431_26; ESTC R202345 36,900 55

derived their being from him though now like cursed Vipers they endeavour to gnaw out the way to their resolved upon Democracy through the Bowels of their Father Monarchy But what ever we heare or see such Traitors Vote or Act let the remembrance of the Blessings both spirituall and temporall which under eighteen yeares of his Majesties good and happy Reigne we did enjoy and might stil have enjoyed if we would have beene content and could have knowne when we were well and undoubted hopes of what blessings his future Gouernment may bring upon this Land yea all his three Kingdoms Let I say the remembrance of the one and hopes of the other move all Loyall Subjects to lift up their hearts and hands to the King of Kings to multiply his dayes as the dayes of Heaven to deliver him out of his present thralcome and restraint to restore him to his rightfull Crowne and Dignity and us his Subjects thereby to the right profession of true Religion and an once more enjoyment of Peace and Plenty yea I am confident 〈◊〉 doe move all true hearted Nobility Gentry and Commonalty to pray for him as the Christians prayed in old time for their Kings though Heathens God of his infinite mercy grant him a Tertul. in Apolog c. 30. a long life a quiet Kingdome a safe Court strong and victorious Armies a faithfull Counsell yea with David b Psal 132.18 that God would cloath all his enemies with shame but set him at Liberty restore him his Scepter and on him and his to cause his Crown hereafter to flourish That so as on the day of his re-inauguration into all the hearts of his Subjects and re-establishment in his Throne the united voyces of his Majesties populous Kingdomes may annually send up to heaven their cordiall and continuall acclamations God save the King that the eccho thereof may resound in heaven as fervently as the noise of the Romans did in applause of Flaminius generally calling him Saviour Saviour the noise whereof was so violent and vehement that as c Plut. in vita Flaminii Plutarch writes it made the Fowles of the aire fall downe dead or that as the d 1 King 1. people of Israel did to Solomon when hee was created King in Gihon and anointed there by Zadock with an horne of Oyle taken out of the Sanctuary the e 1 King 1.40 people piped with pipes and rejoyced with great joy so that the earth rang with the sound of it f 39. blowing their Trumpets and saying God save King Solomon So may all the people within his Highnesse Dominions lift up their hearts and hands blow their Trumpets ring their Bells frequent their Churches and pray God save the King Corporally in Body God save the King Spiritually in Spirit God save the King Politically in Government And excite one another to say This is the day of our King we do not well then this day is a day of good tidings we doe not well to hold our peace And indeed we can never have greater cause to speake of and pray for our King then now in these Rebellious times upon which we are unhappily fallen For these are the times wherin by those that call themselves a Parliament Rebellion is countenanced yea counted Devotion and holy Reformation and the most desperate Traytors entitled Saints and Martyrs Wherein not onely in the Popes Conclave but also in the Sectaries Conventicles shall I say nay in the grand Counsell of the best reformed Protestant Kingdome nothing is more rife than the slandering rebelling against and Imprisoning shall I say Yea the Theorick and practicke of deposing nay it is to be feared which God prevent it will proceed to murthering Princes Wherein as Mariana that insolent Iesuite prescribes to Traitors rules and cautions for poisoning Kings and highly commends King-killers So Marten that impudent Rebell publisheth with the approbation of a Parliament too to the encouragement of Sectaries and Traitors grounds and reasons to proceed in Kings resisting and deposing and highly applauds that cursed crue of King catchers eclipped Saints of the Army Wherein those Traiterous assertions of Suarez and other Iesuites are the constant Positions of those who would be thought to abhorre and beate downe Poperie Subditos posse de privare Reges a Papa excommunicatos vitâ Regno That is to say the Sectaries of England Subjects may deprive Kings if Voted against by the Parliament not onely of their Liberty Crownes and Kingdomes as appeares by the present sad condition of King Charles but also of life it selfe with their Tradatur Satanae and we know not though we feare what event that may in time produce Wherein that horred saying of that foule mouth'd Guignard concerning the murther of one of the Henries of France committed by two Jacobine Friers Heroicum factum donum spiritus sancti is become the oft incultated Doctrine out of Protestant Pulpits and re-resolved Votes of the grand Committee Chaire to resist fight against imprison Depose yea kill and slay the King and all his adherents is a most Heroicall act and the gift of the Holy Ghost Lastly these are the times wherein that knowne bloudy practice of the Spanish Inquisition is parallel'd shall I say nay out-practized by the action of the English Parliament As in the Spanish Inquisition their arguing is this whosoever is an Heretick ought to ●ee burnt but whosoever will not submit to our Canons and Decretalls is an Hereticke therefore whosoever will not submit to our Canons and Decretalls ought to be burnt He that is under the Inquisition denyeth that every one that will not submit to their Canons and Decretalls are Herereticks and consequently not to be burnt and offer to dispute it They of the Inquisition prove it thus They command him to withdraw decree his death dragge him to the stake bind him to it put Faggots about him set them on fire and burn him a most invincible argument So the Vote of this Parliament is whosoever will not doe the Law of God and the Law of the King ought to have judgement spec●●●y executed upon him either by death or by banishment or by confiscation of goods or by imprisonment But whosoever will not obey the Orders or Ordinances of one or both Houses of Parliament doth not doe the Law of God and the Law of the King Therefore whosoever doth not obey the Orders or Ordinances bee they never so opposite to reason and justice of one or both Houses ought to have judgement speedily ex●cuted upon him either by death or banishment or confiscation of goods or imprisonment Those men that are brought before them as guilty in this point Deny that whosoever will not obey the Orders or Ordinances of one or both Houses of Parliament therfore do not do the Law of God and of the King and consequently ought not to have judgement executed upon them without a legall Triall Hereupon they command them to retire resolve upon the
