A77941 A declaration of the sad and great persecution and martyrdom of the people of God, called Quakers, in New--England for the worshipping of God. Wherof 22 have been banished upon pain of death. 03 have been martyred. 03 have had their right-ears cut. 01 hath been burned in the hand with the letter H. 31 persons have received 650 stripes. 01 was beat while his body was like a jelly. Several were beat with pitched ropes. Five appeals made by them to England, were denied by the rulers of Boston. One thousand forty four pounds worth of goods hath been taken from them (being poor men) for meeting together in the fear of the Lord, and for keeping the commands of Christ. One now lyeth in iron-fetters, condemned to dye. Also, some considerations, presented to the King, which is in answer to a petition and address, which was presented unto him by the general court at Boston : subscribed by J. Endicot, the chief persecutor there; thinking thereby to cover themselves from the blood of the innocent. Burrough, Edward, 1634-1662. 1661 (1661) Wing B5994; Thomason E1086_4; ESTC R13926 22,607 32

not_o only_o in_o doctrine_n worship_n and_o conversation_n contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n but_o impudent_a and_o too_o presumptuous_a to_o affirm_v their_o own_o self-justification_n and_o

if_o these_o
command_v to_o preach_v no_o more_o in_o the_o name_n of_o jesus_n do_v they_o at_o all_o obey_v it_o for_o fear_n of_o man_n and_o when_o the_o three_o child_n be_v command_v to_o bow_v to_o the_o

believe_v better_o of_o they_o than_o indeed_o he_o have_v cause_n and_o the_o superadded_a presumption_n and_o incorrigible_a contempt_n of_o authority_n what_o be_v it_o any_o more_o than_o that_o

for_o such_o law_n and_o commandment_n but_o because_o they_o be_v call_v quaker_n and_o be_v different_a in_o matter_n of_o faith_n and_o judgement_n concern_v spiritual_a thing_n for_o as_o i_o have_v say_v no_o sedition_n evil-dealing_a drunkenness_n lie_v nor_o any_o of_o these_o thing_n can_v be_v charge_v against_o they_o and_o therefore_o the_o law_n and_o commandment_n of_o

and_o upon_o their_o occasion_n which_o be_v lawful_a and_o just_a in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o man_n deport_v themselves_o harmless_o towards_o all_o people_n and_o this_o be_v style_v
