THE Englishman's Choice AND TRUE INTEREST In a Vigorous Prosecution of the WAR against FRANCE And Serving K. WILLIAM and Q. MARY And Acknowledging Their RIGHT Ego nec tumultum Nec mori per vim metuam tenente Caesare Terras Hor. LONDON Printed in the Year 1694. THE Englishman's Choice AND TRUE INTEREST WHEN I find those very Men who in former Reigns had Sacrificed our Religious and Civil Rights to the pleasures of their Princes or Humours of a Governing Party now to set up for Patriots in Opposing or undervaluing one of the best Princes that ever sat on the English-Throne Indignation if not the Love of my Country were enough to make me Write Who says the Wise Satyrist could endure the Gracchi talking against Sedition And what true Englishman can with Patience hear them Declaim against Taxes for carrying on the War against France who were Eager to give what the Court could ask in a War against Protestants Who encouraged and connived at the Late King 's Arbitrary Seizing the Customs and would rather we should be at the Mercy of France to take all if it pleases than to part with what bears no Proportion to the vast Benefit which we have in the security of our Religion Estats and Lives from the Barbarity of an Inhuman Enemy Who may be very good Companions for those Well-bred Gentlemen which are so fond of them but would be ill Masters of England Shall those Men Complain that English-Blood or Treasure is spent in so necessary a War who were Accessary to the solemn Murders in Form of Law of the Best and Noblest of the English-Nation Such as would gladly have dyed in that cause which our Degenerate Englishmen now start from Is not danger in the Field much more desirable than to be at the mark of a Bloody Ruling Party which after their breaking in upon the City of London's Liberty of Electing Sheriffs could never miss of having any Man's Life in their Power nor ever spared where they thought it their Interest to destroy Shall those Men who by Surrenders of Charters and other Sordid Compliances Prostituted the Constitution of the English Monarchy to the Papists behind the Court-Curtain deny the Right of their Present Majesties and set themselves against the passing any Law which may oblige Men to acknowledge their Right out of pretended Zeal for the Constitution Shall these Men hope to Convince the World or do they themselves believe that the Constitution places all Authority unalterably in the first upon the Royal Line without any regard to Laws If it be so what make they of the Constitution it self How did any become Lawful Governours And how came it to pass that the pretended Martyrs for a false Loyalty Vid. the Paper which he pressed the Bishops to Sign to assure him and the Nation that they were not for the Prince of O. refused to give the Late King any assurance that they would adhere to him And that upon our Present King 's Advancing towards London they invited him to the Administration before the Late King left England Did they make no Scruple to turn him out of the Government and yet after others are settled are they troubled with Qualms of Conscience about the former Right Is it tollerable for them to say they would not have had his Present Majesty King when they had assisted so truely to Vnking the other and no reall Medium was left but King William or a Common-wealth But can they pretend Conscience who have none against Pensions and Places from a Government the Right of which they disown and they above all who not only declare against the Right of those Princes to whom they have Sworn Allegiance but after enriching themselves beyond measure in Offices of the greatest trust under them have betrayed their Trust so manifestly that there is hardly any body now who does not see it The Notorious and Publick Marks of which Treachery may be so Traced Step by Step and set in so True a Light that no Body who is not a Party with them or Judicially Blinded should question it I must needs say if such there are in the World who have Read Scripture and History to that great Advantage and so good Purpose as to apply to His Majesty what is spoken of a forced Submission saying We submitted to him in the day of his Power Or what some Historians speak of H. 4th's scruple when he had loss'd his Senses about his Supposed Usurpation such must be thought like Men of Honour to have given fair warning of what were to be expected from them But if His Majesty has run the hazard of loseing the Affections of his best Subjects by that only fault of being too good to his Enemies who can doubt but he who has ventured so much and done such great things for the good of the Nation will do this one thing only yet to be desired which is to take from his Enemies the Opportunities of betraying him At his first Landing the Serpents lay expiring under his feet but his Goodness which like the Sun Communicated warmth to all gave them new life and power to Sting How happy a thing it is that they have shewn so much of their Natures Had they been less open they might still have upholden that Credit which the pretence of zeal for The Church and the Monarchy had buoyed up so long and we might still be wasting in a lingring War with France which by Vigorous and Speedy Supplies honestly Managed may soon be ended to the Glory both of Prince and People It was observed of the Old Romans that they were the more formidable by their losses to the Carthaginians Which made them more United at home more Active against the Enemy and Careful to find out Persons able to serve the Common-Wealth Nor can we expect less from the Wisdom and Resolution of the English Nation which will own the King's Title and serve him without respect to a few Men who have no Power in England but from the King They pretend indeed to be Pillars of the Church while they are undermining its Foundations And would make the Church of an Inconsiderable Divided Party Dissenters from the True Church of England the best of the Nobility and Gentry and the whole body of the People Who are entirely for His Majesty as he has Redeem'd them from Popery Against which the Church of England has long been a known Bulwark They talk high for Monarchy but are not for the English Monarchy or King And conjure up the Phantasm of a Commonwealth to divert the apprehensions of the Power of France Nothing but the worst Ministry ever made a Common-wealth tollerable in England Nor has the Notion of it been raised of late for any better purpose than the discrediting them who are not for the Government of the Late King and the French They who have laboured under that imputation are the Men who declared for their Present Majesties when the others
would have King William only a Regent a Protector of a Commonwealth or Officer under King Iames during his pleasure or rather under them till their turn were serv'd without any sense of Gratitude for the Deliverance wrought for ' em While our blind Zelots for Monarchy shew that King Iames and the French King are the only Monarchs they would serve interest as well as Inclination and Duty carry the supposed Common-wealths-Men to do their utmost for a Prince who Revives to them the Memory of the best of those Kings which have Headed English Armies abroad When they consider how much This King does in his own Person beyond any example of this Age unless of the Great Gustavus who rais'd and supported the Protestant interest in Germany how truly he makes good the Character of His Illustrious Family in being the Deliverer of oppressed Nations how well he performs his part how much soever his Affairs the Clogg'd at Home with what Wisdom he Unites and Keeps together the Confederates against the Disturber of the Peace of Christendom what Life he gives to their Troops and what reall Advantages he causes them to obtain not suffering Flanders to be over-run by so powerful an Army of Soldiers long Train'd up to War under the same Discipline and Animated by the Examples of the Flower of their Nobility and Gentry these suppos'd Commonwealths-Men are ready with their Estates and Persons to make War in good earnest and put the French under a necessity of waiting upon our Designs and not we upon theirs and of Disgorging their Usurpations upon our Allies if they will preserve what more truly belongs to them I well know some there are who as they desire we should fall by our selves Suggest that we may stand so that our Navy may Guard our Coasts against Invasions or our Militia and other Forces at home may be enough to preserve us if Enemies Land These Men cannot but own that it is much better for England to be at Charges in keeping the Enemy at a distance than to be the Seat of War And that if any one of those Allies which they undervalue joyn'd with France it were such an Accession to its power as the French Party here would be very glad of nor is there any one of them which would not in such Case be as much Magnified by that Party as now they are Lessened But it is evident that if the French should swallow Flanders which they had certainly done before now if it had not been for the Confederacy Holland which has lately set us so good an Example since the Battle of Landen must necessarly truckle and their Navy be at the Command of France And how could we expect a Fleet able to secure us against both when hitherto we and Holland in Conjunction have done so little against the Naval Force of France Excepting that Memorable time when Admiral Russel whose Victory was by some Men held a crime to his Eternal Honour and Glory so well maintain'd the Reputation of the English Nation If France had no Enemy but England and were at liberty to employ against it all their Armies in Flanders upon the Rhine in Piedmont in Catalonia and in their Garisons which together amount to near 400000 Men while so many here shew themselves ready to declare for them what could England hope for but to be a Field of Blood And how could we think that the French Swords would be sheathed while there were one Protestant remaining Nay when we consider how Barbarously they use the People whom they subdue tho' of their own Religion without regard to Religious Houses or Churches or the Sepulchres of Princes we may believe that the English Papists should find little better quarter than others They who have had such fatal proofs of the English Valour and Enmity to them would take care never more to be in fear of their ancient Enemies Nor is it to be thought that any thing less than our total Extirpation would satisfie ' em When on the other side we consider that notwithstanding all the Treachery of those among us who by all manner of Tyes have been obliged to do their utmost against France notwithstanding the Union and Fidelity in that King's Counsels and his greatest Efforts which he design'd should be decicive this last year yet our King has stopt the progress of his Arms and has given that Reputation to the Confederates that where he is in Person France will never Attack them without double their number what less can be expected from the Gratitude and Affection of a brave People to so Great a Prince but that they will put him into a Capacity to meet the French with equal numbers which is to be assuredly the Arbiter of a secure and honorable peace and that the more Glorious by how many the greater Difficulties the Treachery of his pretended Friends has obliged him to struggle with How impatiently did this Nation bear the private Caballing Designs of former King 's which have kept them in against France What is it that they more coveted for this last Age than to have a Prince firm beyond all possibility of doubt in the Nation 's Quarrel and who would be sure to endeavour to chuse such under him as would Second if not promote the universal bent and desire of his people King Iugurth in ancient times was known with presents to have corrupted the greatest part of the Council of Rome and to have kept them from assisting their Friend and Ally when a vigorous War had been for their honour and interest Nor did that bribing King ever think in good earnest of submitting himself till Metellus a Man of known prudence courage and integrity was at the head of affairs Nor can we hope to bring France to reason by French Pensioners if any such there be We may learn from their faithful Historian Philip de Comines that French money us'd to be very currant in the Enlish Nation It is not for me to say it has had any influence of late But I may say there has been such a chain of Treachery somewhere that every step looks as if the measures were taken from France Yet all the Corruption to be feared is not only from Money For ill habits natures or principles do equally corrupt and turn Men from the service of this Government I must needs think it no undue Censure to say that no Man who understands the Constitution of this Monarchy can be against the present Government out of principle For whoever questions the right of it either has not used due means of informing himself how fully the settlement is warranted by the Constitution or has that want of Judgment which makes him a dependant upon the Judgment of others and the practice of them who give Rules to the unthinking Vulgar has been so inconsistent with it self as well as with their profess'd Principles that they must be asham'd of pretending to any thing but obstinacy and deserve
is more honourable than the highest promotion Let him not envy those men whose rise has been a publick calamity but those Volunteers in the Cause of God their King and Conntry whom constancy and the general Voice advance to the notice of their Prince Can it be thought that when he comes to know what men have adhered to their Countries Cause in the worst of Times and what men served for the sake of that with the hazard of their Lives and Fortunes that this great mind will leave it in the power of some few to keep such men down by their misrepresentations of when he knows that these might have been as great as their Expectations or Desires if they would have joyn'd with the Enemies to the English Liberties who can believe that he who refus'd to invade the Liberties of Holland when France and England tempted him with a Crown and a carte blanche will not reward such virtue where ever he finds it Courage is if not the Source at least the sign of all other vertues in Princes especially nor can a Nation ever apprehend an Invasion of their Liberties but from pusillanimous Princes whose fears make them grasp at false securities instead of what they might be certain of in the prosperity and affection of their Subjects they who read the History of this Kingdom and mark the Characters of those Princes who have been encompassed with Armies of Mercenaries at home and them who have headed the English abroad may be satisfied that Examples to warrant this Observation need not be fetch'd from foreign Countries And as we have reason to believe that our King can desire nothing more than the good of his People we ought as we love our Country every one according to his Station and Capacity to contribute our Endeavours that England may not be wanting to its self or in gratitude to him and indeed it must be said it has had so few good Princes that it has always till now acted as in a transport upon the very expectation of such an one not need we go farther back for an instance than to the beginning of the last Reign Certain it is our King has no quarrel to revenge upon his People and has manifested that disposition to unite all Parties and Interests against the Common Enemy which if King Iames had in the least inclined to all the Blood and Treasure which has been spent in this necessary War would have been spar'd and Christendom might have enjoyed that settled Peace which can be expected from nothing under God but King WILLIAM's Arms. Let it never be said that we have neglected an opportunity for the use of which late posterity will praise as otherwise they will curse us for transmitting French Slavery to them Whoever will come into the Standard perhaps the last that will be set up against France is to be embraced as a Friend to England But many it must be confess'd ought to go through a state of trial before they be receiv'd into any place of Trust. The most gentle the most safe like the Military Sacrament among the Romans must needs be an Oath of Fidelity to Their present Majesties not an Oath which either can bear a doubtful Interpretation or at least has been interpreted into air by Men who seem to think that as long as they do not in words acknowledge the Right of Their present Majesties there can be no Perjury by Implication But such an Oath as may rise in judgment even in this World against every body who shall act any thing aginst the Right of Their Majesties An Oath which will leave no Loop-hole and by which as by the Word to an Army we may know who and who are together It will never be well till the generality are engaged to be for the Government in all events Some for certain there are who have made themselves desperate in this Cause and as they never thought of making peace with the other side are incapable of pardon They abhor a double Game and leave it to others to be Heads of a Party which is against the Government and to support its Enemies under colour of getting into their Secrets or bringing them over from their Principle or Faction They give Men Characters according as they find their affections to the Publick whatever their Carriage has been towards them nor have they Friend or Enemy but as they are for or against their Country The love of which as Cicero well says is above all other Loves They who would be Trimmers in this Cause make it evident they are for having the ship of State sink all at once King William's and our Countries side can never have too much weight against France and Rome Nor howmuch soever some talk for the English Monarchy can they reasonably expect to see it flourish but under King William or till His Wisdom and his Arms have left it secured to us I know it is difficult to make men wise when the Wit and Mony of France raise so much Art to impose upon them Yet this would be lost upon the generality of Englishmen if all disguises were thrown off and they who are for France or King Iames would speak out That well meaning Men may no longer be cheated by their false appearances it may be convenient to pull off their Masks and borrowed Faces 1. They are very copious upon the theam of Taxes and the exporting Mony to our Armies abroad or to assist any of the Confederates but chiefly upon the payment to the States of Holland for their Charges in the late Expedition They would have it believ'd that France would bring in a shorter Reckoning and would rather-have the Nation like Constantinople keep its Riches for a Prey to the Enemy than to give part to keep them out 2. They to the prejudice of Thier Majesties their Crown and Dignity advance Subjects to be Head of the Church of England When a Man has once receiv'd that Unction his Person is become sacred and to suggest that such an one is treacherous is matter of excommunication But who can with patience hear it said in such a Man the Government loses or disobliges a whole Party When if the Party be for the Government they will esteem no man longer than he can be thought true to it If they be against it kindness to any of them will but embolden the rest and give them opportunities for mischief Who when his House is beset with Thieves finding some of them lurking within instead of going to master them will think to tempt them to his defence against their accomplices They are too far engag'd with one another to dare to be honest till their whole gang is nor can they be reclaim'd by gentle usage 3. They have their known Cant and Shiboleth to distinguish their Party from all others the Church and the King are the words given among them to unite Papist and High-Church Iacobite and Loyalists And they have a certain Anagram
which joins Lewis and Iames but always preferring their old Master of France witness the Health LIMP And well knowing that England as the Great Duke of Rohan has rightly observ'd cannot be destroyed but by it self and its own inbred Diseases they make and foment distemper'd Heats among us while they divide Protestants into different Clans and Interests and while they make many Parties of them who should be but one or two at the most they seem to wish us Ierusalem's Fate But when the Enemy has a party within our Gates they who would be of no Party at least are not against the destruction of their Country 4. They magnify the power of France and the advantage of its way of Government to make War or command Peace and mightily lessen and reproach the Confederates and that chiefly under a popular Mask of Zeal against Leagues with Popish Princes which they Good men are so far from that they are for submitting to the worst of them without terms 5. They insinuate as if England bears the Charge of a needless War to maintain the Dominion of a forein Prince not considering that the Dutch alone have in their pay 106540 Men besides their allowing 25000 Gilders a Month towards carrying on the War in Piedmont and are so far from being discouraged by the late Misfortunes from a vigorous prosecution of the War that they have added 15000 to their former Land Forces besides encreasing their Navy And it 's a known Maxim that the preservation of Flanders is more for the interest of England than of Spain If Flanders be an accession to France Holland must soon follow and England next They are like Nine-Pins the throwing down one carries the rest The importance of Flanders is sufficiently confess'd by these Gentlemen when they would have others believe there is a necessity of our truckling to France upon the taking a Town or two there and yet they are for giving it all up but any man who has seen the noble Towns and large Country yet remaining would think it very well worth the preserving Antwerp it self if it were in the French Hands would command the Trade of Christendom 6. They are very invective against French Protestants among us as promoting Schism eating the Bread out of our Mouths and being Spies for France as if they wish'd them their persecution again 7. The Dutch they would render more dangerous than either of the Turks because of the strength of their Shipping and their Rivalship with us in Trade not considering how they themselves have helpt to raise France to be a match for us and Holland and how likely it is by the dividing either from the other to swallow both yet by open ill usage or a treacherous and fatal friendship they would drive the Dutch to take part against us 8. They represent it dangerous to arm the Protestants in England out of a pretended fear of a Common wealth and in Scotland and Ireland for fear the Church should be over-run with Protestants of all sorts holding the French Power and Popery to be more remote dangers or more tolerable evils 9. They beyond measure magnify that Service the Dissenting Bishops did themselves in appearing for England in their own defence and improve that Surprize and Transport which the Nation was in to see them once in their Lives Protestants and Englishmen without marks of distinction into an awing the Government with an imaginary reputation the very ground of which fail'd as soon as they fell off from the common Cause Nor must they think it an easy thing to dispose this Nation to turn out a Protestant King because they followed those Leaders as they would any others against Popery God be thanked we have a Prince who will not quit His possession without bloody Shirts They may have vanity enough to fancy that they made this Revolution when they were no more than Flyes upon the wheel which the Sufferings of Lord Russel and others first set a going Their commitment to the Tower was but the last drop with which the Vessel ran over Yet if we reflect upon the Shares some of them had in laying or holding on that burden which the Nation was eager to throw off we may own that they contributed to the Revolution as Storms and Tempests do to clearing the Sky for fair Weather These with a few hot headed Laymen who have always us'd the Church for a Sanctuary and Asylum set up for a Church by themselves divided from the Body of the English Clergy as well as Layty and standing between the Church of England and the Church of Rome Since there is no hopes of the Cassandrian way for Rome to come to them none is left but the Laudaean for them to advance towards Rome And indeed it was very visible that they were doing drudgery for the Papists in former Reigns while they were labouring to keep the Church of England upon a bottom which they neither design'd for National or a means of uniting with Protestants of other Countries Can their Reputations weigh in England against a Government founded in common Protestantism or against the Reputations of those their Successors whose Piety Learning and Moderation as they kept them from the highest Stations in the Church against the general Voice at last promoted them with the Applause of all who wish well to England And though our Archbishop wants the advantage of an education at Rome which it seems the other has not had to no purpose the greatest Bigots of the new Sect cannot imagine him short of their Head in any real Ornament or Qualification 10. They tho masters of no virtue are so far from esteeming what the greatest Enemies abroad admire in our King that they have the insolence to speak unmannerly of his Person when they owe it to His Clemency that they are not chastised for it by the Fury of the People 11. They vilely insinuate as if His Majesty were no Friend to the English Nation which no man can do without greatly undervaluing both Prince and People If indeed the most were like themselves or what they represent them he would be under an unwelcome necessity of living as in a Country of Enemies who would not have him Reign over them But certainly none but they who are obstinately resolv'd against loving him can apprehend the hatred of a Prince whose goodness surprizes his greatest Enemies tho the Coals of Fire which it heaps upon their heads do not melt them into any sense of gratitude or shame What follows but that all true Englishmen standing upon their Guard against these Wolves in Sheeps cloathing and against all who may at least be suspected of private ends second the Intentions and Endeavours of a Prince who cannot possibly be thought to have any aim or interest but for the good of this Nation and Mankind in general Let us not fear the Power of France like infectious Diseases it will come with a fear which debilitates and disables
from resistance Hannibal at the Gates as it was us'd to frighten the Children of Rome to the Men was a Call and Incitement to take care of the Publick Safety Not to have despair'd of the Common-wealth when its Fortune seem'd most desperate was as happy to them as it was glorious And should the issue of opposing France be as dismal as the most timerous or most designing pretend to foretell it were better that the last day of our being a free People should overtake us doing our duty and struggling against our Chains than helping to put them on And in truth hardly any thing in this life can be a real affliction till men begin to sink under the sense of having brought it upon themselves Those Protestants who hope to plead the merit of voluntary submissions and services to France would do well to consider how it has been with those of the Religion there who enabled their King so to use them And those miserable Towns and Cities which thought by delivering up their Keys to secure their Houses Estates and Liberties stand as so many fir'd Beacons to stir up all Nations against them As the Power of France may be thought a punishment upon our accessions to it formerly and present divisions when we repent of the past and mend the present cause of that Calamity we may well think the Rod will be broken Nor will France longer be a scourge than we deserve it It is doubtless in our Power to remove the moral and judicial Cause of our Fears nor can we think that all those Ravages Persecutions Perfidies and Contempts of God and Man shall long go without some remarkable Punishment However Humane Greatness has its Limits and Periods and France seems to have seen its best days If we use the means to humble it by uniting and exerting our strength when once we come to grapple with it and give it one powerful shock like a great Machine screw'd up to the height it will never leave turning till it comes to the bottom Inwhich happy day we shall no longer be troubled with the scruples of the noisie few that hold off from this Government or the distinctions of the many who soon settled the point of accepting Preferments but are yet to seek of Salvoes to the Reputation of a Party which must change their Principles and cease to be a known Party to come to those Grounds upon which the Nation received their present Majesties for King and Queen and that of Right FINIS Books newly Printed for T.
