subiects auowing and obstinatly maintaining the same should according to iustice cause the offender to haue the reward due to such a fact and this was the first action of any capital punishmeÌ„t inflicted for matter sent from Rome to moue rebellion which was after her Maiestie had reigned about the space of twelue yeres or more Thirdly when the pope had risen vp out of his chaire in his wrath from words and writings to actions and had contrary to the aduise giuen by S. Barnard to his predecessor that is wheÌ„ by his messages he left Verbum tooke ferrum that is left to feede by y e word and began to strike with y e sword and stirred her noble men people directly to disobedience and to open rebellion and that her lewde subiects by his commandement had executed y e same with al the forces which they could make or bring into the fielde who with common reason can disallow that her Maiestie vsed her Principall authoritie and by her forces lawfull subdued rebels forces vnlawful and punished the authors thereof no otherwise then the pope himselfe vseth to doe with his owne rebellious subiects in y e Patrimonie of his church And if any Prince of people in the world would otherwise neglect his office and suffer his rebels to haue their wils none ought to pitie him if for want of resistaÌ„ce and courage he lost both his Crowne his head his life his kingdome Fourthly when her Maiestie beheld a further increase of the popes malice notwithstanding that y e first rebellion was in her North partes vanquished in that he interteined abroade out of this Realme the traytours rebelles that fledde for the rebellion and all the rable of other the fugitiues of the Realme and that he sent a number of the same in sorts disguised into both the Realmes of England and Ireland who there secretly allured her people to newe rebellions and at the same time spared not his charges to sende also out of Italy by sea certaine shippes with Captaines of his owne with their bandes of souldiers furnished with treasure munition victuals ensignes banners and all other things requisite to y e warre into her Realme of Ireland where the same forces with other auxilliar coÌ„panies out of Spaine landed and fortified themselues very strongly in the seaside and proclaymed open warre erecting the popes banner against her Maiestie may it be nowe asked of these persons fauourers of the Romish authoritie what in reason should haue bene done by her Maiestie otherwise then first to apprehend all such fugitiues so stolne into the Realme and dispersed in disguising habites to sowe sedition as some Priestes in their secrete profession but all in their apparell as roisters or ruffins some scholers like to the basest common people and them to committe to prisons and vpon their examinations of their trades and haunts to conuince them of their conspiracies abroade by testimonie of their owne companions and of sowing sedition secretly at home in the Realme What may be reasonablie thought was meete to be done with such seditious persons but by the lawes of y e Realme to try condemne and execute them and specially hauing regard to the dangerous time wheÌ„ the popes forces were in the Realme of Ireland and more in preparation to followe as well into England as into Irelande to the resistance whereof her Maiestie and her Realme was forced to be at greater charges then euer she had bene since shee was Queene thereof And so by Gods power which hee gaue to her on the one part she did by her lawes suppresse the seditious stirrers of rebellion in her Realme of England and by her sword vanquished all the popes forces in her Realme of Ireland excepting certaine captaines of marke that were saued from the sworde as persons that did renounce their quarrel seemed to curse or to blame such as sent them to so vnfortunate desperate a voyage But though these reasons grounded vpon rules of naturall reason shall satisfie a great nomber of the aduersaries who will yeelde that by good order of ciuill and christian policie and gouernement her Maiestie could nor can do no lesse then she hath done first to subdue with her forces her rebelles and traytours and nexte by order of her lawes to correct the ayders abettors lastly to put also to the sword such forces as the pope sent into her dominions yet there are certaine other persons more nisely addicted to the pope that will yet seeme to bee vnsatisfied for that as they will terme the matter a nomber of sillie poore wretches were put to death as traytours being but in profession schollers or priestes by the names of seminaries Iesuites or simple scholemasters that came not into the Realme with any armour or weapon by force to aide the rebelles traitours either in England or in Ireland in their rebellions or warres of which sort of wretches y e comiseration is made as though for their contrary opinions in religion or for teaching of the people to disobey y e lawes of the Realme they might haue bene otherwise punished and corrected yet not with capitall peane These kinds of defeÌ„ces tend only to find faule rather with the seueritie of their punishments theÌ„ to acquite them as Innocents or quiet subiects But for answere to the better satisfaction of these nyse and scrupulous fauorers of traitors it must be with reason demaunded of them if at least they will open their eares to reason whether they thinke that when a King beeing stablished in his Realme hath a rebellion first secretly practised and afterward openly raysed in his Realme by his owne seditious subiectes wheÌ„ by a forreine potentate or enemie the same rebellion is mainteyned and the rebelles by messages and promises comforted to continue and their treasons against their naturall prince auowed consequently when the same potentate and enemie beeing authour of the said rebellion shall with his owne proper forces inuade the Realme and subiectes of the Prince that is so lawefully and peacebly possessed in these cases shal no subiect fauouring these rebelles and yeelding obedience to the enemie the inuador be committed or punished as a traitour but onely such of them as shall be found openly to carrie armour and weapon Shal no subiect that is a spial and an explorer for the rebell or enemie against his naturall Prince be taken and punished as a traitour because he is not found w t armour or weapon but yet is taken in his disguised apparell with writings or other manifest tokens to proue him a spie for traitors after he hath wandered secretly in his soueraigns campe region court or citie Shall no subiect be couÌ„ted a traitour that will secretly giue earnest and prest money to persons to be rebelles or enemies or that will attempt to poison the victual or the fountaines or secretly set on fire the ships or munition or

The Execution of Iustice in England for maintenaunce of publique and Christian peace against certeine stirrers of sedition and adherents to the traytors and enemies of the Realme without any persecution of them for questions of Religion as is falsely reported and published by the fautors and fosterers of their treasons xvii Decemb. 1583. â€ Imprinted at London 1583. â§ The Execution of Iustice in England for maintenance of publique and Christian peace c. IT hath bene in all ages and in all countries a common vsage of all offendors for the most part both great and small to make defence of their lewd and vnlawfull facts by vntruthes and by colouring and couering their deedes were they neuer so vile with pretences of some other causes of contrarie operations or effectes to the intent not onely to auoid punishment or shame but to continue vphold prosecute their wicked attempts to y e full satisfaction of their disordered and malicious appetites And though such hath bene the vse of all offendors yet of none with more danger then of Rebels traitours to their lawfull Princes Kings and countries Of which sort of late yeeres are specially to be noted certaine persons naturally borne subiects in the Realme of England and Ireland who hauing for some good time professed outwardly their obedience to their soueraigne Lady Queene Elizabeth haue neuerthelesse afterward bene stirred vp and seduced by wicked spirites first in England sundry yeres past and secondly and of later time in Ireland to enter into open rebellion taking armes and comming into the field against her Maiestie and her Lieutenants with their forces vnder banners displayed inducing by notable vntruthes many simple people to followe assist them in their traiterous actions And though it is very well knowen that both their intentions and manifest actions were bent to haue deposed the Queenes Maiestie from her Crowne and to haue traiterously set in her place some other whom they liked whereby if they had not bene speedily resisted they would haue committed great bloodsheddes and slaughters of her Maiesties faithfull subiects and ruined their natiue countrey Yet by Gods power giuen vnto her Maiestie they were so speedily vanquished as some few of them suffered by order of Lawe according to their deserts many and the greatest part vpon confession of their faultes were pardoned y e rest but they not many of the principall escaped into forreine countries there because in none or few places rebels and traitours to their naturall Princes and countries dare for their treasons chalenge at their first muster open comfort or succour these notable traitors and rebels haue falsely informed many Kings Princes and States and specially the Bishoppe of Rome commonly called the Pope from whome they all had secretely their first comfort to rebell that the cause of their fleeing from their countries was for the religion of Rome and for maintenance of the said Popes authoritie Whereas diuers of them before their rebellion liued so notoriously the most part of their liues out of all good rule either for honest maners or for any sense in religion as they might haue bene rather familiar with Catalyn or fauourers to Sardanapalus then accoÌ„pted good subiectes vnder any Christian Princes As for some examples of the heads of these rebellions out of England fled Charles Neuill Earle of Westmerland a person vtterly wasted by loosenesse of life by Gods punishment euen in the time of his rebellion bereaued of his children that should haue succeeded him in the Earledome and how his bodie is nowe eaten with vlcers of lewde causes all his companions do see that no enemie he had can wish him a viler punishment And out of Ireland ranne away one Thomas Stukeley a defamed person almost through all Christendome a faithlesse beast rather then a man fleeing first out of England for notable piracies and out of Ireland for trecheries not pardonable which two were the first ringleaders of the rest of the rebelles the one for England the other for Ireland But notwithstanding the notorious euill and wicked liues of these and others their confederates voide of all Christian religion it liked the Bishop of Rome as in fauour of their treasons not to colour their offences as themselues openly pretend to do for auoyding of common shame of the worlde but flatly to animate them to continue their former wicked purposes that is to take armes against their lawfull Queene to inuade her realme with forreine forces to pursue al her good subiects and their natiue countries with fire sworde for maintenance whereof there had some yeres before at sundrie times proceeded in a thundring sort Bulles excommunications other publique writings denouncing her Maiestie being the lawfull Queene and Gods anoynted seruant not to be the Queene of the realme charging and vpon paines of excommunication commanding all her subiects to depart from their natural alleageances wherto by birth and by othe they were bounde Prouoking also and authorising all persons of al degrees within both the realmes to rebell and vpon this antichristian warrant being contrarie to all the Lawes of God and man nothing agreeable to a pasturall officer not onely all the rabble of the foresaid traitors that were before fled but also all other persons that had forsaken their natiue countries being of diuers conditions and qualities some not able to liue at home but in beggerie some discontented for lacke of preferments which they gaped for vnworthily in Vniuersities other places some banckerupt Marchants some in a sort learned to contentions being not contented to learne to obey the Lawes of the lande haue many yeres running vp and downe from Countrey to countrey practised some in one corner some in an other some with seeking to gather forces and money for forces some with instigation of Princes by vntruethes to make warre vpon their natural countrey some with inwarde practises to murder the GREATEST some with seditious writings and very many of late with publique infamous libels ful of despitefull vile termes and poysoned lyes altogether to vpholde the foresaide antichristian and tyrannous warrant of the Popes Bull. And yet also by some other meanes to furder these intentions because they could not readily preuayle by way of force finding forreine Princes of better consideration and not readily inclined to their wicked purposes it was deuised to erect vp certeine schooles which they called Seminaries to nourish bring vp persons disposed naturally to sedition to continue their race and trade and to become seedmen in their tillage of sedition them to send secretly into these the Q. Maiesties realmes of England Ireland vnder secret Maskes some of Priesthood some of other inferior orders with titles of Seminaries for some of the meaner sort of Iesuites for the stagers and ranker sort such like but yet so warely they crept into the land as none brought the marks of their priesthoode
