neuer be ended his name is Iohn When God had made Adam and brought him into paradise he suffered him to giue names to all his creatures and for two causes The first that he might distinguish one from another The second that he might haue a property in all and it is thought he gaue names according to the nature of the things Wouldest thou distinguish child from child let their names be significant so did the Iewes of old and it were not farre amisse for Christians to practise the same now that as the Lord hath made them thine by nature so thou should appropriate them his by grace naming them of some great mercy or speciall grace flowing from him That names should be significant it may appeare by the practise of all the godly Adam of red earth so called by God himselfe Eue is Isha which is of man for that she was framed of his rib Cain of a possession for that his father thought he had begotten the promised seed as a repossession of that Paradise which he had formerly lost But when he saw the crookednesse of Cain he called his second sonne Habel which is vanity condemning his owne vanity in his thoughts And it is of speciall note and obseruance that after that he tooke occasion by the names of his children to vnfold the misery of man Sheth a child begotten after his owne image and likenesse as well concerning his creation as corruption Sheth called his sonne Enoch which is desperation Enoch called his sonne Kenan which is dispossession Kenan called his son Mahalaleel which is perceiuing death Rahel yeelding vp the ghost in her painfull trauell called her child Bennoni which is the sonne of my sorrow Of such significant names of mans misery the Scripture is full one I cannot passe in silence to wit of Phinehas wife who whē she hard that the Arke of God was taken by the Philistines and that religion was gone she called the child Icabod which is the glory is gone from Israell The Lord grant that wee haue neuer cause so to say so to christen our children or so to sigh to the sorrowe of our sinfull soules when as for our vnthankfulnesse the glorie shall go from Englād The vse of all is this that as nere as we can wee should cleipe our children with significant names such as are no sooner heard but they should make an impression in vs them either of the Lords mercie or our owne miserie But and if we will take in the pride of our harts such names sauoring of flesh and bloud as Dauid did when he called his sonne Absalon which is the fathers peace let vs take heede it fall not out with vs as it did with him for hee became his fathers bane A good aduertisement to see to our names that wee bee not better called then qualified as Absalon was crossing a good name with a bad nature As for prophane names taken from the Gentiles and such as sauour of idolatry away with them as Iupiter Mercurie Venus c. Names we may take of our ancestors so wee follow their vertues as Dauid Abraham Isaac Iacob It is written of one that he was so obliuious that he had forgotten his owne name I feare there bee many such who little regard to follow the vertues of such as they would bee called after yea oftentimes wee heare the sound of our names but we forget the signification Thou shalt bee no more called Iacob but Israel as preuailing with God so said the angell and after Iacob had it he neuer lost it hee neuer forgot it and it was with him as with Scipio Africanus Qui nihil inde praeter cognomen accepisse dicitur he had nothing frō Carthage but the bare name so what had he or what haue we in this world but a wrastling with God for a blessing The daughter of Phanuel From her gracious name now come wee to the faithfull family whereof she was descended which is here said to be Phanuel A gracious childe no doubt of gratious parents I meane a flourishing branch of a fruitfull tree for Phanuel is Peniel mentioned Gene. 32.30 which is the face of God being the place where Iacob wrastled with the Angell said I haue seene God face to face and my life is preserued In memorie whereof Phanuel learned 3. things notable presidents for fathers of families to follow in making holy their children and houshold 1 The sight of God in his word thus I haue seene God face to face 2 The wrastling with God for a blessing by powerfull prayer and practise of all piety thus I will not let thee go except thou blesse me 3 The assurance of Gods mercie and blessing after such fight contention in these words my life is preserued Let this bee a modell to frame your families by so shall ye bee blessed in all your habitations as was Abraham Cornelius Abed-Edō Lazarus at Bethania and Iosua when he resolued said If it seem euill vnto you to serue the Lord choose you this day whom you will serue but I and my house wil serue the Lord. Godlines is great gaine whereunto appertaineth not onely the things of this life but of the life to come Is it gaine you seeke for would you aduance your houses and preferre your children Then liue godlily bring them vp in his feare so shall ye not only honour them in this world but in the world to come I haue beene yong saith Dauid and now am old yet I neuer saw the righteous forsaken nor his seede begging his bread The remembrance of the iust is with praise but the name of the wicked is with rottennesse Let the rule of the Apostle guide you in the bringing vp of your children and familie in nurture holy discipline If there be any that prouideth not for his owne and namely for them of his houshould he denieth the faith and is worse then an infidell Which is true and may be verified not so much of temporall trash as of heauenly treasure euē of that which r●st cankereth not moth consumeth not nor theefe breaketh through and stealeth Men thinke it sufficient if they be godly themselues though their children bee riotous Let Ely his example answere that obiection punished for his impunity let Iobes care of his children banqueting increase thy diligēce in feare of their future fall The Senate people of Rome as Tullie recordeth sent euery yeare six of their Princes children to the land of Hetruria there to learne the art of diuination To credit the profession of diuinity then Princes children were sent to see into the entrals of beasts flight of birds our inspection now is deeper and we soare higher euen into the bloudy wounds of a sweete sauiour bleeding on earth pleading in heauen and yet woe is me therefore both meane men and mightie

his Maiesties most gracious godly clemency which they haue abused and whom if they had requited with such an vnkinde kisse of killing crueltie yet might he haue said with the Orator Non vitium nostrum sed virtus nostra nos afflixit Yea and to speake from a more powerfull spirit his maiesty and Senate being then about a worke of so great consequence both for the good of the Church and common-weale If that Court then had beene their coffin and they had dyed so doing yet might they haue sayd in the silence of their soules Happie is the seruant whom when the master commeth he shall finde so doing And now if any man shal say to blot out the memory of this so memorable a mischiefe O it is done let it die sith the danger is past and the deliuerance is now old let that man know Conuenit laudē Dei esse perpetuā Seemely it is that the praise of God should bee perpetual And if by this deliuerance England then England now England euer be made blessed we had neede rather to write it in Marble with the point of an Adamant to continue then with the clawe of a Crow in the dust of obliuion to be forgotten Whē the Lord turned againe the captiuity of Sion after 70. yeares bondage in Babylon it is memorable Zach. 13.6 Isay. 37.3 Iudg. 5.

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 y● 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
