this Jew at his return to Paris then flourishing with all manner of Arts and Sciences found his Country-men marvellous great Students in Divinity and in much better state then might be expected to continue any long time 13 Lewes the seventh albeit instigated thereto as was said before had not shorn them so near upon his Expedition to the Holy Land but that they might bear Fleece again for his Son to pluck off Their Synagogues had remained still beautified and their private wealth either before his death much increased or in his time not much impaired But Almighty GOD who in Testimony of his rejoycing to do them good had raised up Cyrus to Balthazar 's Throne to release their Nation from that Captivity which Nabuchad-nezzar had brought upon them to give the world as perfect a proof of his Rejoycing over them to destroy them and bring them to nought Deut. 28. 63. did Advance Philippus Augustus son unto the former Lewes unto the Crown of France to defeat the Jews throughout that Kingdom in an instant of all their former hopes No sooner was he enthroned King but presently he giveth forth his Edict That their Synagogues should be spoiled of all Donatives and ornaments belonging to them and enformed of the grievances which Christians sustained by them granteth a general Release of all debts due unto them from Christians consiscating all their lands and immoveable goods This was done that Moses his prophecy might be fulfilled in part Deut. 28. 30 31 33. Thou shalt build an house and not dwell therein thou shalt plant a Vineyard but shalt not eat the fruit thereof Thine Ox shall be slain before thine eyes but thou shalt not eat thereof Thine Asse shall be violently taken away before thy face and shall not be restored unto thee Thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies and no man shall rescue them for thee the fruit of thy I and and all thy labours shall a people which thou knowest not eat And thou shalt never but suffer wrong and violence alwayes CAP. XXIX Of the fulfilling other particular Prophecies of Moses in the Jews persecutions in England Germany France and Spain 1 THat they should not once or twice in this or that Age in some one or few Kingdoms only but alwayes in every place where they have come since their rooting out of their own Land suffer such wrong and violence must needs be thought to have proceeded rather from Divine Justice then mans Injustice which could not but have varied with the diversity of times places and the several dispositions of parties amongst whom in this their long Pilgrimage they have lived And yet this brief Enumeration following of their particular spoils and hard usages since Philippus Augustus time throughout the most civil and best governed States of Europe will abundantly confirm the truth of Moses general Induction in the place now cited Thou shall never but suffer wrong and violence alwayes To begin with their persecutions in this Land 2 Had Henry the eldest son of Henry the second who was present at the fore-named French Kings Coronation acquainted with these severe Edicts against the Jews lived to enjoy the Crown of England after his Father as he was entituled King with him the grievous wrongs and violence immediately after befalling these Jews throughout this Kingdom had been ascribed to this politick imitation of the French King his Brother at least men would have thought they had been done by his sufferance or connivence But God had taken him away and yet these Jews Intreaty continues much worse under Richard the first who never intended them like harm onely upon his Coronation day with his Raign begins their Wo which ends not till their final Extirpation hence not willing to be beholden unto them for their presents or as some think partly afraid lest admitted to his presence they might practise some Sorcery upon his body he gave command that no Jew should come either within the Church where he was Crowned ●or the Palace where he was to dine But they desirous to present him with some gift in hope to have their Charters and other Priviledges granted by other Kings confirmed by him presse in at the Palace gate amongst others making perhaps more hast but worse speed one of them receiving a blow for his forwardness by one of the Kings servants who might well justifie the fact by the Kings command to keep them out The people about the gate apprehend the matter so as if this Jew had been beat by the Kings commandment and so they thought might all the rest of that crew and hence fall upon them with such weapons as they could find as it was easie to find bats to beat these doggish Jews home to their kennels where they found but silly shelter For albeit their houses were strong yet the rage of the people was too great against them With the multitude the former rumour was enlarged that it was the Kings pleasure to have all the Jews destroyed And as the Axiom is Mens own desires are quickly believed So far more apt they were to apprehend this rumour as true then to examin whether it were true or no that the Lord chief Justice and other Officers sent from the King to appease the tumult were more likely to catch harm themselves then to free these Jews from present danger some of whose houses now flaming gave the people light to spoil and rifle others in the dark For so violently were they set to wrong them and eat their labours that they could not be satisfied from dinner time on the one day to two a clock on the other many of these Jews in the mean time being rosted or smothered with their goods other leaping out of the fire fell upon their enemies weapons Although the outrage was such as in a peaceable state might seem intolerable yet was the hainousness of the offence quite swallowed up by the multitude of the offenders But as the English escapt unpunished so the Jews were not amended by their correction Their Stubbornness as the Scripture tels me did first procure their Blindness and their Blindnesse becoming Hereditarie hath confirmed their Stubbornness to posterity 3 The former violence which they suffered would have been a sufficient Caveat to any people in the world besides to have carried themselves with more moderation in a strange land but not the flies so stupid and senselesse in discerning the causes of their smart as this people is Their perfidiousnesse and daily sucking of Christians bloud had made them most odious in this as in other Lands and though a number of them be Massacred to day for like attempts yet the rest are as ready again to morrow to seize upon every sore either to exhaust the reliques of life from such as are shrunk in their estate by cruel exactions and damned usurie or else to intrude themselves as wedges or instruments of divisions into every breach that shall appear

England under William Rufus whose conditions were such that whosoever would give enough might have whatsoever lay in his power to grant Their estate in England during other three Kings raign until Richard the first yields little matter of observation this people hate had not as yet broken out against them but was all this time in gathering and after their first planting here they were to have a time to bring forth fruit for others to eat a time to gather wealth for others to spend as Moses had foretold 8 Most miserable in the mean time was their estate throughout the Eastern Empire as one of their own Writers Benjamin Tudelensis who went on Pilgrimage to visit his Country-men wheresoever dispersed throughout the world complaineth of their general hard usage amongst the Graecians instancing in such as were seated about Constantinople within whose wals they might not come but upon occasion of publick commerce or business in which case they were allowed passage onely by Boat having their habitation as it were in an Island Amongst two thousand of this servile Congregation there residing not one permitted to come on horse-back save only Solomon the Emperours Physitian whose exaltation perhaps not fourteen handfuls above ground was held as a publik grace of the whole Nation the chief solace of that miserable and servile usage which all the rest without difference good or bad did sustain dayly beat and scourged in the open streets Yet must we believe this Relator That these Jews were wealthy good and merciful men observant of the Law such as could patiently endure this miserable captivity But Patience perforce according to the Proverb is no Patience If GOD had granted them ability or opportunity they had quickly shewed their Jewish minds by Jewish actions And why he keepeth them continually under unwilling to hear their cry though They cannot we Christians may easily perceive the cause For so his Prophet Samuel had fore-told And ye shall cry out at that day because of your King whom ye have chosen you and the Lord will not hear you at that day Which words as a learned convert Jew rightly observeth were not fulfilled in Samuels time whose opinions may be fortified by these reasons 9 Samuels authority over that people was not so strictly linked with GODS but that they might reject the one for their present Judge still retaining the other for their supream Lord and who can deny that the God of their Fathers did rule over them in Davids Solomons Jehoshaphats and Ezekiahs times Sin no doubt they did in abandoning Gods Priest and Prophet to follow the fashions of other Nations in submitting themselves unto a King And Samuel like a good Physitian forewarneth them of that incurable disease which this new-fangle and intemperate act did even then Prognosticate whose Fatal Crisis notwithstanding did not insue until they overgrown with desperate wilful and intemperate malice had rejected Hint with open mouth who was both Priest and Prophet and their lawful King whose kingdom was not of this world whose Soveraignty was so united with the divine Majesty that in casting him away they could not but cast off God that he should not reign over them 10 Again before that time God alwayes heard their cry and redeemed them from all Forrain Bondage and such as Samuel there describeth was neither general nor perpetual under their own Kings neither did the best of such use any nor the worst all or most part of the natural Israelites in such sort as he there threatneth yet all the miseries there threatned 1 Sam. 8. 11 12 13 14 15 16 17. have been since accomplished in full measure if I may so speak in length breadth and profundity First this Servi●●●y hath been extended over All the Nation without exception Secondly the continuance of it hath been exceeding long and perpetual without interruption and so must continue until they confesse their forefathers rebellion and acknowledge him for their King whom rejecting they rejected God for he that will not so honour the Son cannot Honour the Father as King Lastly those marks of servility set forth by Samuel have been so deeply imprinted in this generation rejected of GOD that his Prophecy compared with Modern Histories concerning them will seem but as Painted Wounded men in a cloth of Arrasse to the bleeding reliques of a scattered vanquished army For neither under any Caesar though they made choice of Caesar for their King nor under any other Kings or States have they lived as Free-denizons capable of publick Office or Honour the best of them are but as slaves prohibited to use the meanest of Christians so The most of them as Samuel fore-told are admitted in Common-wealths for manual services or other handy-crafts imployments Captains I think none of them have been unlesse perhaps in some desperate services many of them in greater Cities are suffered to follow Merchandize that they may serve the State as Spunges alwayes surer to be squeezed for the moysture they have sucked then to be nourished by it Sundry of them are curious Artificers and professe ingenious Trades like silly Silk-worms permitted to exercise their skill in precious stuff to fill Princes Coffers and find their Countries cloathing 11 The possession offields and Vineyards hath not been so usual amongst this people as their spoil amongst such as possessed any so this Jew relateth it as a special prerogative of Calonymus the son of Theodorus both in their life-times chief of the Synagogue in Narbona and lineally descended as he pretendeth from David that he might quietly possesse the fruits of his grounds The Princes it seemeth of that and like places did take other Jews fields and vineyards and best Olive trees and gave them unto their servants rather tything then taking the tenth of their seed and Vineyards for that usually was the Jews part the other nine as Samuel foretold 1 Sam. 8. 14 15 16. fell unto Princes Officers lot 12 But the greater these dispersed sons os Isaac Servility was the more it commendeth the fidelity of Gods word concerning the sons of Rechab who as this Author relateth live united in form of a Kingdom or Nation not subject to any forrain yoak rather able to offend their neighbours then likely to receive harms from them Their estate to this Authors dayes continued such as they themselves acknowledged unto Jeremy Onely experience it seemeth had taught them to build Cities for their better security against the incursion of forrainers which was not against their oath in case of necessity as appeareth from Jeremy 35. 9 10 11 12. Because in other points they have obeyed the commandment of Jonadab their Father and kept his precepts and done according to all that he had commanded them therefore Jonadab hath not wanted a man to stand before him until this day that is their estate hath continued such as their Father left them much better then the estate of Abrahams Sons by Sarah Though

amongst Christians or between them and others In which practize they have been continually crusht Finally their general carriage is so odious and preposterous that Albeit the CHRISTIAN Magistrates conspire together for their good they themselves will certainly provoke their own misery 4 The lamentable death of those Jews in London had purchased pitie and compassion towards the rest as the Kings Proclamation for their peace and securitie did witnesse but their Brethren of Lin can not abstain from offering that violence from which the King had priviledged them to one of their own linage for becoming a Christian attempting forcible entrance into the Church whither he had fled for Sanctuarie Unlesse they had thus riotously violated the Kings peace the Christians had not assemble●… together and the Inhabitants were afraid at all to meddle with them But 〈◊〉 God had provided that a great companie of Forraign Mariners should 〈◊〉 pair unto this mutinie who moved with indignitie of the attempt could not content themselves with the rescue of the Convert at the first perhaps onely intended but assault these mutinous Jews through fear repairing to their houses which the other first rifle then burn together with their owners departing unpunished with spoil 5 The end of the Kings Proclamation being once frustrate by this strange Accident though not purposely or directly violated by the inhabitants of this place his subjects elsewhere are willing enough to imitate the Fact without any occasion of like wrongs offered by the Jews only upon opportunitie of doing violence by the Kings absence and the present mustering of Souldiers for the Holy Land upon whom transported hence their partners in evil here at home remaining might post over the whole blame of the fact of part whereof no doubt his Souldiers had been guiltie The like massacres of these Jews ensued at Stamford at Lincolne and S. Edmundsbury shortly after but of all others most memorable and lamentable was that which in the same Lent befel them at York 6 The Jews there dwelling had heard by this time what had been done unto their brethren in London and Lin and see now the like or greater violence intended against themselves so that as Moses in the fore-cited place Deut. 28. 34. addeth They became mad for the sight of their wrong and violence which their eyes did see One of their learned Rabbines perswades four hundred of his companie besieged with him in a strong Tower by a furious multitude to prove themselves such as the world had long taken them and were now persecuted for right Cut-throats indeed rather then fall into their enemies hands himself confirming his doctrine by his example in cutting his wives throat first then his childrens and lastly by killing himself The residue of the four hundred which he had perswaded unto this unnatural and Jewish Act not only willing to imitate him herein would before their death have enforced many others that would not yield unto this Rabbines advice to a more violent death had they not conveyed themselves into a strong Turret within the main Tower which defended them from the flames that consumed their goods And yet these poor souls that had scaped their fellows violence were born to suffer thelike of their Christian Enemies to their shame who had promised them life upon condition they would yield themselves and become Christians which whether they meant in heart or no as they promised he that trieth the secrets of all hearts doth know Sure I am their professed Christian enemies did turn Jews in heart that treacherously killed them before any trial made of their sinceritie towards Christ 7 All these wrongs and violences were committed only by the people much against the Magistrates mindes but hereafter the supream Magistrates Kings themselves as if they had learned wit of their subjects took the Monopoly of wronging the Jews into their own hands To omit what Richard the first had done unto them their hard usage under King John Henry the third Edward the first makes me think that Moses in the last words of his often mentioned Prophecie Deut. 28. spake in his language that said Patria est ubicunque bene est so as England and every place in Europe wherein their condition of life hath been more hard and burdensome then their forefathers had been in Egypt may be said to be that Egypt whereunto the Lord had threatned to bring them again by ships King Johns exactions were so grievous that they had rather suffer then do what he commanded many of them being imprisoned and tortured before they would yield what he demanded What an intolerable thing was it for a private man in those times to pay ten thousand marks for refusal of which that poor Jew of Bristow was so pittifully used But with God it was just to punish him by his own greedinesse of gain for unlesse his money had been as dear to him as meat to such as make Their Belly Their God he would have let his Gold go before he had lost Seven Teeth o●…ne 8 King Henry the third first demands the third part of all their moveables for his supplies then punisht them grievously by the purse for a murther secretly committed by them and thirdly makes them buy their miserable peace by the third part of what was left Finally he brought them to such extream povertie that his brother to whom he let them out to farm could it seems make nothing of them and so they were freed from this brutish servitude as Moses in the fore-cited place had fore-told for want of a Buyer The King surely did not so much pitty them as he did himself and his posteritie who should have gotten nothing of them if the bargain with his brother had gone forward whereas his Successor Edward the first accounted their goods as his own for Non-payment of what he demanded the whole generation scattered throughout this Land were shut up in one night where they enjoyed no day until they had fined at the Kings pleasure who yet perhaps did recover but as much as he and his subjects were endamaged by two hundred and odde of their Country-men all condemned some eight years before for circumcising counterfeiting and washing his coyn This King albeit their wealth under him was much diminished had this advantage of his predecessours The English desirous to have them banished and they as willing to spite the English by their staying here were both forward to purchase their contrarie desires by large offers to the King until the English at last did out-vie them by a fifteenth which the Parliament granted for their utter avoidance of this Land so much welcomer was their room then companie 9 All their immoveable goods with their Obligations and Bils of debt were confiscated Thus as Moses saith they had builded houses but could not dwell therein Vineyards they had planted which they could not carry with them never to return hither again they nor their seed to
