court of Rome And yet vnwitingly they condemne themselues in an other place graunting that they may not by worde or writing impugne the parliamentall Lawes of this land Thirdly by not appealing they should haue beene preiudiciall to prince Church and all estates as is in the second obseruation but not to the prince Church or State of England ergo to the prince Church and State of Rome for of force they must so meane the force of trueth hath inforced their penne Fourthly they appealed for her Maiesties securitie as is in the third obseruation where I cannot enough admire the impudent insolencie of these disloyall Seculars who make a treacherous flowrish as if the securitie of their dread Soueraigne did depend vpon their Popes good pleasure and their treacherous appeale vnto him Herein they make hauocke other Maiesties statute-lawes which els where by popish statization and equinocation they say they may not offend A note worthy to be remembred Fifthly they appealed for the quiet of the state which is as disloyally spoken as the former for God auert that the peace of her Maiesties state and her Realmes do at any time stand in neede of the Popes fauour the intreatie of the sedicious Seculars Sixtly they appealed for the auoydance of inuasions and conspiracies as is in the fi●th obseruation out of which confession I inferre these two important corollaries First that conspiracies and inuasions are still intended against her sacred person her royall throne her crowne her state and dominions Secondly that the Pope is the principall actor in all plots conspiracies treacheries inuasions and conquests intended against the Queen her realms and faithfull subiects I therefore conclude that the Seculars are this day as dangerous in al treasonable plots bloody practizes and disloyall conspiracies as they haue beene heretofore For albeit they belabour themselues seriously to hide and bolster out all their cursed intendements against their dread soueraigne and natiue Countrey especially when they are occasioned to speake of matters of state as they doe or may concerne their owne persons yet doe they but equiuocate and temporize in so doing and that as scornefully and treacherously as euer did the Iesuites Of which point none can be ignorant that shall seriously peruse and ponder this discourse Wherefore as the Seculars say of the Iesuites so say I of them that though they sweare can yet we not safely beleeue them in state-affairs the reason is euident because they doe not acknowledge any magistrate vnder her Maiestie to be their lawfull and competent iudge If they say write or sweare the contrary yet giue no credite to them therein for euen then doe they seeke to delude the Magistate by their hypocriticall and execrable equiuocations No no it neither doth nor can stand with popish religion to thinke and beleeue that Queen Elizabeth whom God long preserue ouer vs can ordeine any competent iudge ouer them And consequently vntill the Seculars renounce the Pope and his damnable procéedings against Christian kings their royal diademes and sacred regalities they will doubtlesse delude the maiestrates with their fondely inuented equiuocationes This is a graue aduiso which may not beforgotten Aduiso V. Of the opinion affection and true meaning of the seculars in all the treasonable practises bloudie conspiracies and other disloyall intendmentes against their dread soueraigne and natiue countrie THe seculars conspire concurre and iumpe with the Iesuites in opinion affection and inward meaninge touching the Popes authoritie the bloudie conspiracies inuasions conquest other disloyall intendments against most noble Queene Elizabeth and our natiue country this I proue by manie strong weightie and irrefragable reasons The first reason The pretenses of such practises were generall and common to all Catholikes alike all maintaining one the same opinion concerning what might be done by Apostolical power authoritie neuer talking of what was necessarie Thus is it written quodl 8. art 9. pag. 277. but the seculars are papists aswell as the Iesuites Ergo of the same opinion with the Iesuites Heere the reader may see plainely that the seculars iumpe with the opinion of the Iesuits touching the popes authoritie For by apostolicall power they vnderstand the power and authoritie of the Pope To which must be added which is alreadie proued that the Pope hath excommunicated her Maiesty de facta and hath beene the chiefest agent in all treasonable practises bloodie conspiracies inuasions conquests and other execrable intendments against her Maiesties person honour state and dominions To this must likewise be added which is also proued that the Iesuites affirme malepeartly damnablie and disloyally that the Pope hath done nothing in the premisses but that he lawfully might doe The second Reason Among many examples of the deare loue and compassion of the Popes holines towards the inhabitants and princes of this land in times of imminent commonwealths dangers the chiefe since the Norman conquest was shewed in the daies and raignes of king Henrie the second surnamed Fitzempresse and of his sonne king Iohn the third Monarke of England of a Plantagenets royall race Against whom hauing vsed his fatherly correction as pastor vnivniuersall ouer the whole flocke of Christ for their great crueltie and tyrannie vsed towards their naturall subiects yet vpon their repentance mercifully receiuing them into grace and fauour of Gods Church againe his holines on the behalfe of the second did not onely accurse and excommunicate prince Lewis of France with all his adherents forcing him to yeeld vp all the interest right and title that he or his posteritie had or euer should haue to the English crowne but also surrendred vp the said crowne of England franke and free to king Iohn and his heires and successours from of the head of Cardinall Pandulphus hauing sit inthronized three daies therewith in the Popes right And thousands there are in England that desire as much Thus is it written quodl 8. art 9. page 327. Out of these words it is euidently deduced that the Pope taketh vpon him though most iniuriously and tyrannically to translate kingdomes to depose kings Emperours and Monarkes and to bestow their princely Diademes and royall regalities as seemeth best to his good pleasure Yea which is more to be admired the seculars who in outward shew of words by often and earnest protestations affirme themselues to be most loyall subiects approue the Pope in so doing For first where the Pope had excommunicated and deposed king Henry they terme it his fatherly correction Secondly they say he did it by his vniuersall authority ouer the whole Church Thirdly they terme the deposing of prince Lewis and the restoring of king Iohn to the crowne the chiefest fatherly compassion since the Norman cōquest Fourthly they tell vs that Cardinall Pandulphus was three daies enthronized with the crowne of England vpon his head in the right of the Pope which forraine tyrannicall fact they commend approue Fiftly they tell vs that the Pope enforced king Lewis to
