deliuered Let this suffice for the danger deuised by men but vndone by God and if any would know by what men and of what Religion I answer by Englishmen and of the Popish Religion Nor will I say that all of that faction were priuie to that practise yet may I say that none for ought I yet heare were of the conspiratie but the popishly affected and so branded which when God hath the glorie and the truth is knowne then will it appeare how farre the humor hath spred it selfe into the body of al the kingdom too much God wot decaied with that deadly maladie Yet I hope well in time if such bee the fruits of Popish Religion that fewe will gather Apples of that blasted tree a tree of Sodome faire in sight but in truth and touch nothing but Cindars and rottennesse and of all the staines that euer Poperie had I am perswaded that this is of the deepest die For in stead of blowing vp vs they haue blowne vp themselues and their Religion with such a wound to their cause as will neuer bee cured by any craft being blotted with one of the horriblest Treasons that euer was contriued and such as God Nature could neuer brooke to bee amongst the cruellest Cannibals Turkes or Scithians that euer were No maruell then if Ciuill states abhorre it Christian Nations detest it Religious Kings spit at it the Chronicles of all times record it for such an Antichristian stratagem Romish Monster and Popish prodigie as neuer might endure the sight of any Sunne but was strangled in the birth ere it could bee borne and kild in the blade ere it came to any growth Strangled I say and killed by no other hand then the hand of God and euen then when the deuisers deemed it done for the Vault was readie the Powder was laid the traines were made the match was prepared Fercy was busie and Faukes was bloudie in resolution to giue the charge with a Crucifix about his neck haire about his loines to tell you of what tribe he was yet eueÌ„ then and in the rage of all this furie the Lord said Stay thy bloudy hand the sacrifice is not pleasing For what hath England done to deserue so heauy a iudgement I am their God they are my people and for my great name sake I will bee propitious and make them glorious by deliuerance The Sunneshine is theirs and the gloomie day is yours your designes are vpon your owne heads your Daggers are turned vppon your selues and sheathed in your owne bowels yee haue beene fighters against God â—ee will not be warned that ye might bee armed Wherefore now Discite iusticiam moniti non temnere diuos Your owne Letters shall discouer the Treason and the writing of your owne hands shall betray the mischiefe of your own hearts I will fight against you with your owne weapons and I will wearie you in your owne waies The old Florentines had a Bell which they called their Martynella and they rung it euer before the siege of any Citie to warne the besieeged eyther to yeeld or die It was a mercie to preuent a miserie But your Martynella hath giuen no such warning to vs and therein were you lesse mercifull then the Florentines How be it so it is that your Bell hath rung your passing Peale and the Lord hath turned your owne writings to be death to you and life to vs blessed be his name therefore One saith well Vbicunque fuerit prouidentia frustrantur vniuersa coÌ„traria Where the Lord hath a prouidence all other encounters are defeated If his prouidence be vpon the fire it burneth not If vpon the seas they swell not If vpon the windes they blow not If vpon the aire it infecteth not If vpon the Lions they deuoure not If vpon the Sunne it goeth not but standeth still in Gibeon and the Moone in the valley of Aâ—alon If I say his prouidence be vpon the graues they detaine not but yeelde to deliuer their dead and Lazarus must come forth How then should any creature stirre to the subuersion of so blessed a State whilest the prouidence of God houered ouer it like the wings of the Cherubims ouer the mercie seate yea his prouidence it was to preuent vs with mercie and louing kindnesse and ere euer wee praied to be propitious to thinke vpon vs ere wee thought vppon him to deliuer vs from the blow before wee saw the danger And to conclude it was his mercifull prouidence to turne your praiers into our bosome a crosse to that you meant it ominous to you but glorious to vs. I hope saith the Writer God will giue you the grace to make good vse of it and what better vse could euer haue beene made either to Gods glorie the good of his Church the safetie of the King Queene and Prince with all their Royall issue I say what better vse could euer the receiuer haue made to shew his loyaltie to his Prince and loue to his Country then by dealing as hee did for which hee shall be honourable in this generation wel reported of in his time and be of them that haue left their name behind them so as his praise shall be spoken of I may conclude with Zacharie and make good the Lords prouidence ouer this English Nation to the great comfort of al the godly and the astonishment of the wicked elsewhere in the worlde Cease your attempts against the Truth for the hands of Zorobabel haue laide the foundaiton of this house his hands shall finish it and who seeing the stone of Tinne in the hands of Zorobabell shall despise the day of the small things The house is the Church of God here in England Zorobabell is our Christ here in England hee hath laid the foundation in England hee will also finish it in England And who seeing the line in his hand to build by which is his worde in England and the stone of Tinne to build vp which is his people of England dares euer despise the day of the small thinges small to the siely and sensuall eye of flesh and bloud despicable to the worldly Monarchies and of small beginnings yet precious to God and now made glorious by deliuerance His prouidence is ouer all And as the Prophet saith these seuen are the eyes of the Lord that goe through the whole world his graces still abound and are a continuall current in his Church like the two Oliue branches emptying theÌ„selues through the golden pipes into the gold Golden Prince golden Peere golden Prophet golden people fined from the drosse of sinne and superstition to bee pure mettall and as it were spangles of gold in the holy Sanctuarie of your God Emptie O emptie your praises pipe by pipe from the highest Maiestie euen to the lowest of the people and giue God the glorie And thou virgin daughter London write vpon thy walles Peniel and say the face of God was towards me Thou

that beheld it runne warme and smoking into the streets of the Towne so downe into the Riuer of Scene So great a dishonor and so great an infamie to that Nation as the most part of them are ashamed at this day of their owne Countrey defiled with two most filthy spots of Poperie falshood and crueltie of the which whether hath beene the greater in that religion it is hard to say I passe to speake of the Butcherie of Henry late King of France by two Iacobin Friars with poisoned kniues in their handes and Popish Bulles in their bosomes which Guignard the Iesuite was not ashamed to call an heroicall act and a gift of the holy Ghost I say nothing of Parry his stab of death and Lopas his Pill of poison intended against Queene Eliza of famous memory by their owne confession the best natured and qualified Queene that euer liued in England yet this may I say that the dagger was sharpened and the Pill was poysoned with the venome of Popery else Benedetto Palmio and Hannibal Codrotto two factious Iesuites had neuer beene traduced as bellowes to blow the fire and kindle the coales of so great a mischiefe with this warrantie to enflame their hellish hearts that the fact was lawfull and meritorious But if all these were clapt in one they may not ballance with the waight and woe of our late entended dismall day if God of his great mercie and wonted clemencie had not put by the deadly blow For a day of death like that of Doome in ictu oculi had put out the light of Englande King Queene Prince Peere and people All had perished and all at once Seruants had ruled ouer vs and none could haue deliuered vs out of their hands our inheritance had beene turned to the strangers and our houses to the Aliants our fathers had beene childlesse and our children fatherlesse In our English Rama had beene a voice heard mourning and weeping great howling Mothers weeping for their children and children for their mothers and neither had beene comforted because they were not Wee should ere this haue drunken our water by measure eaten our bread by waight our skinne had beene blacke as an Ouen because of the terrible famine they had defiled our women in Sion and our maides in the Cities of Iuda our neckes ere this had beene vnder such persecution as wee should haue been weary of ourliues and neuer haue had rest when our soules had bin put into the hands of so viperous a generation who would haue shut vp our liues in the dungeon and cast a stone vpon vs I say so generall a iudgement so speedie and so bloudy had neuer beene in any kingdome Nay more that deadly blow at once and in Ictu oculi ere this had taken the elder from the gate and the young men from their songs it had silenced the Prophets and dissolued the lawes both of God and the Nation I say still as formerly I haue said so generall a iudgement so speedie and so bloudy had neuer beene seene in any kingdome The Royall Pallace of Westminster Cittie and Sanctuarie there built by the Noble Kings of this Land now honoured with the presence of as mighty a Monarch as euer went before with as wise a Councell as euer England had with as full a Senate of Nobles as euer sate there with Bishops for learning gifts and graces equalling if not aboue the reach of former times and with Knights and Commons of the lower House of Parliament in all respects sutable this Royall Place and Presence with all the Honor Puissance and Pietie thereof to haue bin blowne vp at once and in Ictu oculi I say still so generall a iudgement so speedie and so bloudie had neuer beene seene in any kingdome O vnnaturall and degenerate Englishmen how could you euer endure to thirst after the destruction of so sacred a Senate and sweet an assembly how could you finde in your hearts to seeke the destruction of so benigne a prince and so Royall an issue with the vtter subuersion of so glorious a state by bringing into the bowels therof that Romish Apollyon mentioned in the Reuelation who where hee is victorious staineth the earth with bloud the ayre with blasphemie and the heauens with his abominable and luxurious incontinencies The old worthy Romanes the two Decii thought it the most heroicall thing that might bee to vow themselues to death for their Country and euen to spend their liues in defence of their Altars Temples and Monuments of their Elders but you seeke to see your Countrey bathing in the bloud of your Prince Peeres and Prophets in the bloud of your parents kinred and friends to see the cities graues and temples of your predecessors consumed with fire to see your Records burned your Actuaries destroyed your virgins deflowred your women rauished and finally to bring the noblest of Nations into a perpetuall slauery and seruitude by as deadly and dolorous a blow as euer was deuised or done in any kingdome except in that kingdome of darknesse where is nothing else but hell horror and all confusion Surely surely for this your entended mischiefe and your former murthers the worme that neuer dieth will gnaw your rebellious hearts and the furies of hel which neuer giue rest will haunt you in your habitations where euer ye goe they will speake in the voice of those Kings Queenes and Princes with whose bloude you haue embrewed your trayterous hearts and hands as it is said Caesars ghost did to Brutus and Cassius whom in the Senate they murdered with such crueltie O vnkinde Countrymen and cruell Caitiffes I haue beene your blisse but you are now my bane I haue beene your mirth and you are now my moane I haue beene your wealth and shadow in a florishing Empire but you are now my want and woe in a decaying estate I haue preserued your wiues to your comfort and your children to your great ioy but yâ— haue made my wife husbandlesse and my children fatherlesse to their vnspeakable griefe I clothed you with scarlet and hanged ornaments of gold vpon your apparell spotted with the purest Armines but you haue couered my dead corps with a Carpet of greene grasse diaperd with my dearest bloud Finally I haue kept your Daggers within your sheaths and you haue sheathed them within my heart Fie fie Flee flee And whither can you flee but the Hagge will euer haunt you nor can you euer fare well till the Furie finde you faultlesse Interim nos ad sepulehra vadimus We sleepe in peace The Lord deliuer our Church and Country from all such Brutish and Cassian cruelties so as neuer they bee able either to touch the Lords annointed or doe his Prophets any harme and praised be the Lord which hath not now giuen vs a prey vnto their teeth for our soule is escaped euen as a bird out of the snare of the Fowler the snare is broken and wee are
