A45197	Mr. Hunt's postscript for rectifying some mistakes in some of the inferiour clergy, mischievous to our government and religion with two discourses about the succession, and Bill of exclusion, in answer to two books affirming the unalterable right of succession, and the unlawfulness of the Bill of exclusion.	Hunt, Thomas, 1627?-1688.	1682 (1682)	Wing H3758; ESTC R8903	117,850	282

so_o long_o in_o animadvert_v upon_o this_o last_o passage_n but_o that_o i_o think_v our_o considerer_n have_v take_v into_o his_o assistance_n in_o these_o consideration_n some_o divine_a by_o his_o abound_v so_o much_o in_o scriptural_a allegation_n and_o that_o hereby_o you_o may_v see_v the_o size_n of_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o man_n of_o that_o order_n that_o be_v chaplain_n to_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o succession_n and_o that_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v of_o little_a regard_n in_o this_o matter_n as_o they_o deserve_v none_o it_o be_v not_o in_o their_o way_n though_o in_o matter_n that_o belong_v proper_o to_o their_o function_n they_o may_v deserve_v much_o who_o be_v of_o the_o mean_a of_o that_o order_n our_o gentleman_n next_o proceed_v to_o his_o political_a argument_n but_o those_o can_v be_v answer_v i_o persuade_v myself_o by_o every_o man_n who_o have_v hear_v of_o the_o plot._n though_o a_o man_n of_o his_o size_n may_v frame_v puzzle_v argument_n that_o may_v perplex_v man_n mind_n with_o scruple_n and_o doubt_n which_o a_o fool_n may_v do_v and_o a_o wise_a man_n can_v remove_v yet_o it_o be_v scarce_o possible_a for_o he_o to_o deprive_v man_n of_o their_o sense_n and_o make_v they_o insensible_a to_o all_o the_o evil_n that_o they_o hear_v see_v and_o feel_v and_o just_o fear_v if_o the_o protestant_n be_v not_o as_o he_o say_v very_o strong_a abroad_o we_o have_v reason_n to_o be_v more_o unite_a at_o home_n and_o unite_v by_o the_o awful_a authority_n of_o a_o law_n if_o we_o be_v threaten_v with_o a_o great_a power_n of_o the_o roman_a religion_n from_o abroad_o which_o he_o affright_v we_o with_o we_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o retain_v the_o big_a power_n to_o hurt_v we_o within_o our_o own_o bowel_n but_o if_o it_o be_v in_o the_o power_n of_o such_o bad_a man_n as_o this_o pretender_n to_o divide_v by_o slight_n and_o wile_n the_o good_a people_n of_o england_n and_o keep_v they_o from_o unite_n in_o the_o only_a mean_n of_o their_o safety_n we_o must_v perish_v but_o woe_n be_v to_o they_o by_o who_o we_o be_v thus_o destroy_v his_o last_o effort_n upon_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o people_n be_v to_o intimidate_v they_o that_o by_o their_o fear_n they_o may_v fall_v under_o the_o evil_n they_o design_n upon_o we_o he_o scatter_v his_o menace_n as_o if_o he_o be_v in_o the_o place_n of_o god_n against_o we_o and_o as_o if_o he_o have_v the_o execute_n of_o the_o plot_n in_o his_o power_n and_o tell_v we_o of_o sin_n that_o fit_v we_o for_o ruin_n it_o be_v convenient_a to_o these_o plotter_n to_o imagine_v we_o mighty_a wicked_a that_o they_o may_v believe_v we_o deserve_v the_o vengeance_n they_o design_v our_o government_n itself_o our_o law_n our_o religion_n must_v become_v wicked_a when_o they_o arrive_v to_o a_o probable_a power_n to_o hurt_v we_o they_o never_o contrive_v a_o gunpowder_n plot_n a_o massacre_n or_o burn_v a_o city_n but_o they_o dream_v the_o iniquity_n of_o the_o people_n be_v grow_v ripe_a they_o will_v turn_v we_o into_o sodom_n and_o gomorrha_n which_o this_o considerer_n fright_v we_o with_o if_o they_o can_v call_v for_o fire_n from_o heaven_n and_o then_o publish_v we_o to_o all_o the_o world_n if_o we_o be_v much_o better_a than_o we_o be_v to_o be_v as_o wicked_a as_o the_o city_n of_o the_o plain_a if_o we_o can_v obtain_v this_o bill_n i_o shall_v then_o begin_v to_o think_v that_o the_o decree_n be_v go_v forth_o and_o our_o fate_n be_v approach_v and_o that_o god_n will_v let_v these_o villain_n have_v their_o will_n over_o we_o by_o god_n displeasure_n not_o they_o i_o shall_v take_v the_o true_a measure_n of_o our_o sin_n his_o displeasure_n will_v be_v remarkable_a and_o evident_a if_o he_o seem_v to_o deny_v we_o the_o mean_n of_o our_o safety_n and_o preservation_n and_o which_o be_v the_o only_a mean_n of_o the_o king_n salvation_n from_o their_o traitorous_a design_n if_o this_o bill_n do_v not_o pass_v they_o will_v take_v he_o for_o a_o wicked_a king_n too_o and_o they_o will_v say_v he_o have_v no_o lawful_a issue_n to_o succeed_v he_o for_o his_o own_o sin_n though_o our_o considerer_n say_v at_o present_a that_o our_o sin_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o and_o many_o other_o remark_n of_o wickedness_n they_o will_v make_v upon_o he_o when_o they_o find_v it_o convenient_a and_o for_o their_o interest_n to_o destroy_v he_o at_o best_a he_o will_v be_v then_o but_o tenant_n at_o will_n to_o they_o of_o his_o life_n as_o well_o as_o his_o crown_n which_o this_o considerer_n most_o slanderous_o charge_v to_o be_v design_v by_o we_o but_o if_o he_o will_v follow_v the_o counsel_n of_o that_o excellent_a bill_n he_o may_v live_v long_o and_o see_v good_a day_n and_o peace_n upon_o our_o israel_n to_o which_o let_v all_o good_a people_n say_v amen_o i_o shall_v only_o remark_n two_o or_o three_o thing_n in_o the_o close_a of_o the_o paper_n of_o weighty_a consideration_n first_o that_o he_o undertake_v to_o say_v and_o affirm_v that_o the_o king_n be_v as_o much_o subject_n to_o the_o power_n of_o the_o parliament_n as_o the_o duke_n which_o do_v dethrone_v the_o king_n himself_o and_o lessen_v he_o to_o the_o degree_n of_o a_o subject_a second_o that_o in_o this_o his_o address_n he_o persuade_v the_o king_n to_o rend_v the_o government_n to_o lay_v aside_o the_o commons_o of_o england_n and_o abandon_v they_o as_o rebel_n to_o divide_v from_o they_o and_o govern_v by_o a_o house_n of_o lord_n and_o privy_a council_n and_o three_o that_o the_o most_o venerable_a and_o loyal_a parliament_n that_o ever_o be_v convene_v in_o this_o nation_n though_o not_o so_o clear_o purge_v from_o the_o corrupt_a villain_n of_o the_o late_a long_a parliament_n as_o the_o next_o we_o hope_v will_v be_v be_v charge_v by_o he_o to_o follow_v the_o anarchical_a encroachment_n of_o the_o faction_n in_o the_o rump-parliament_n by_o which_o he_o insinuate_v that_o we_o must_v become_v papist_n admit_v of_o a_o popish_a successor_n or_o be_v use_v as_o rebel_n and_o traitor_n by_o these_o three_o remark_n it_o be_v evident_a what_o principle_n and_o design_n these_o man_n be_v of_o that_o oppose_v the_o duke_n bill_n and_o from_o thence_o you_o may_v find_v reason_n to_o assist_v it_o and_o promote_v it_o with_o the_o great_a unanimity_n and_o resolution_n and_o the_o rather_o for_o that_o the_o duke_n himself_o can_v want_v consideration_n to_o dispose_v he_o to_o approve_v of_o it_o for_o what_o shall_v he_o do_v with_o a_o crown_n that_o he_o can_v wear_v why_o shall_v he_o accept_v of_o a_o trust_n that_o he_o can_v discharge_v and_o a_o government_n that_o his_o principle_n oblige_v he_o to_o transfer_v to_o a_o foreign_a prince_n he_o be_v too_o generous_a a_o prince_n to_o enter_v upon_o a_o province_n only_o to_o betray_v it_o he_o be_v a_o prince_n of_o great_a charity_n it_o be_v that_o sure_o move_v he_o public_o to_o confess_v the_o roman_a religion_n that_o he_o may_v thereby_o recommend_v that_o religion_n to_o our_o belief_n for_o the_o better_a reform_v we_o from_o heresy_n why_o then_o shall_v not_o the_o same_o charity_n move_v he_o to_o renounce_v the_o government_n lest_o he_o shall_v offer_v a_o irresistible_a temptation_n to_o the_o people_n to_o a_o rebellion_n a_o great_a sin_n account_v by_o a_o king_n though_o a_o catholic_n however_o the_o priest_n rate_v it_o than_o a_o error_n in_o belief_n but_o how_o can_v we_o imagine_v that_o he_o will_v condescend_v to_o be_v our_o king_n he_o do_v not_o intend_v to_o accept_v of_o our_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n and_o have_v rather_o not_o be_v king_n than_o we_o shall_v be_v his_o subject_n upon_o those_o term_n why_o shall_v we_o trouble_v he_o with_o the_o name_n of_o king_n reproach_n he_o call_v he_o apostate_n heretic_n and_o infidel_n by_o swear_v ourselves_o his_o subject_n in_o the_o term_n of_o the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n and_o supremacy_n pray_v think_v no_o more_o of_o it_o write_v no_o more_o great_a and_o weighty_a consideration_n for_o he_o intend_v to_o be_v no_o more_o your_o king_n than_o he_o do_v to_o desert_v his_o religion_n and_o the_o roman_n catholic_n faith_n beside_o his_o zeal_n and_o service_n and_o the_o difficulty_n that_o he_o have_v undergo_v for_o that_o church_n and_o the_o hazard_n he_o have_v incur_v deserve_v the_o best_a place_n and_o high_a office_n in_o that_o church_n which_o be_v that_o of_o a_o priest_n he_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v put_v off_o and_o mean_o reward_v with_o the_o sheriffalty_n which_o their_o eminency_n of_o the_o conclave_n despise_v and_o be_v prefer_v to_o all_o the_o drudgery_n and_o cruelty_n that_o the_o priesthood_n of_o that_o church_n require_v of_o the_o king_n of_o that_o communion_n that_o
