Gathered by M. S. Imprinted at London by Iohn Charlewood and Edward VVhite ¶ The Araignement of an obstinate Traitour named Euerald Ducket alias Hauns at the Sessions house on Fryday the xxviii of Iuly 1581. VPon Friday being the eight and twentie day of Iuly there was brought to the Sessions house to be araigned before the Queenes Maiesties Iustices one Euerald Ducket alias Hauns Englishman beeing a Preest and not long since come from beyond the Seas This wicked fellow contrary bothe to the feare of God and dutie which he should by right beare to our moste gratious Queene Elizabeth erred from the true perfect doctrine of the word of God and liued in obscure and Sathanicall determination of life as his owne protestations hath sufficientlye made apparant and the obstinate liues of the rest of like sect giueth daily example He hauing receiued the orders of Preesthood at Rheimes in Fraunce a place where the more is the pittie diuers and many younge youthes of England are somewhat fed vpon the Popes pention who maintaineth there a Seminarie to allure and entise the hartes of sundry her Maiesties obedient Subiects Children to come vnto that place where in steede of learning they are instructed to dishonor God to disobey their Prince and to sell their soules wilfully into the detestable slauery of that blasphemous Antechristian Prelate From this aforesayd place came this obstinate fellow and beeing brought before the Iustices to his aunswer of certaine absurd and diuelish Articles by himselfe mainetayned which are these ensuing 1. That no Prince in all Europe ought to haue any supremacie but the Pope onely 2. That the Pope was indued with the holy Spirit and therfore he could not sinne Albeit a terror to any Christian hart to heare it and a diuelish obstinacie in himselfe to pronoūce it yet he traiterously said 3. That our moste gratious Soueraigne Lady Queene Elizabeth was an Heretique and therefore not woorthy of any gouernment 4. And that the Pope hath as great sway and authoritie in this Realme of England at this day as he had a hundred yeeres agoe With other such like wicked and abhominable arguments that he maintayned and beeing there examined of them he began with this protestation The Popes holynesse At which not onely the Honorable Bench but also all that stood by entred into a great laughter which caused him to breake of the graue discourse that els they should haue heard Then was he demaūded of the former Articles to which he aunswered What I haue sayd I haue sayd and will stand to vsing himselfe very fond and full of derision euen like all of that sort whom God hath giuen ouer into a reprobate sence After diuers questions by the Benche and aunswers of himselfe not heere to be spoken of The Quest of twelue men was panneled vpon him whom he was willed to see if he would challenge any of thē No quoth he there is some indifferent men among them or els it goes hard So he still troubling the Benche with ouer many words as concerning how many soules he had saued synce his comming ouer and what good hee had doone in his commaunded labour That the Benche commaunded him to silence vntill the Quest were come to giue vp theyr verdict Who beeing come and finding him guiltie for that before he had put himselfe to God and the Countrey he was demaunded what he could say for himselfe that iudgement should not proceede vpon him He frumpingly aunswered you haue put me to silence and now I will say nothing Then the Benche commaunded him to holde vp his hand and he held vp his left hand Why quoth the Iustices is this your Roomish order then he held vp the other and scoffingly sayd Now Sir I pray you is not one hand as good as the other for you At lēgth ere iudgement was pronounced the Benche rehearsed vnto him how B. Stephan Gardener recāted He aunswered the greater was his sinne Then they sayd how Cardinall Poole recanted the greater was his sinne quoth he againe Iohn Nichols quoth the Bench the other day recanted from his great impietie of life he aunswered the more his synne and greater his paines in the world to come At last they told him how the Papists great God Bishop Bonner recanted at his death That is not so quoth he for he neuer recanted After many horrible speeches by him passed and by the Honorable Benche aunswered Iudgement of high Treason proceeded vpon him to be drawne hanged and quartered He aunswered them againe though you haue condemned me of Treason yet doo I know that I am voyde of sinne in this So was he caryed from thence to Newgate where Maister Crowley a godly Father remained all the afternoone with him in conference of the Scriptures and found him altogether vnlearned not able to answer any thing directly but meruaylous obstinate and very impious ON Monday being the 31. of Iuly he was brought to Tiborne the appointed place of Execution being drawen from the prison of Newgate vpon a hurdle and godly Preachers all the way exhorting him but no signe or motion of repentaunce might be perceiued in him Beeing come to Tiborne there was a Prisoner executed before him who had otherwise trespassed and he very mildely and penitently tooke his death praying zealously that God would turne the hart of this peruerse wretch and so with sundry godly prayers ended his life Then was this Ducket brought vp into the Cart where were with him Maister Shakelton Maister Fidens other godly Preachers still exhorting him who after the noyse of people was some what appeased which was no small company he began in this manner I am brought hether this day to confesse my fault beleeuing and assuring my selfe in the death of Christe who shed his blood for the Catholique church whereof I am a member and hope therein to be saued for the Catholique Church is and hath beene from the beginning of the worlde vnto this day the true prefiguration of Christe And whereas these Ministers speaking in derision haue protested that I sayd Treason is no sinne I beseech you all that are heere be witnesses with me for these are the last woords that I shall speake that I sayd not so These were my woords that this which you call treason that for which I here die to day is no sin before God though you please to terme it so And I beseech all Catholiques that are present heere to pray for me The godly Preacher aunswered if there be any heere I trust the number is very small or none at all quoth he in time I trust the number will be increased For through the Catholique Church is the way to saluation and the Popes holines is the head of that Church Then he keeping close his eyes as though he were in his prayers the Preachers rehearsed vnto him the Lords praier quoth he vayne woords away with the rauening wolues Maister Sherife Woodcoke then bad him aske the Queene forgiuenes whom he had offended and all the present company Quoth he it is needles I am a Subiect and I graunt my selfe to be a Subiect Why quoth Maister Sherife she is supreme head of the Church therfore thou oughtest to submit thy selfe to her Not so que he she is a woman and she may not neither can not speake in the Church and therfore ought not to bear any authority in it With that their godly eares not abiding to hear these blasphemous wordes drew away the Cart let him hang scāt two turnes but cut him downe to abide the farder paynes appointed for him FINIS To the Christian Reader true obedient dutie bothe to God and Prince continually wished IF our hartes were not hardened our sences dulled with ouer much care of the world and no respect to our obedient dutie wee might perceiue the great mercy looue of our God and the too little regard that we make of it For let vs but argue vpon the dayly presēt examples as the care he hath to his Church the milde fauour he beareth to his people that put their trust in him that although Satan seeke to builde a banke about it yet ariseth the Lord and sayth Iustice is mine How hath God looued vs in sending vs such a gratious Princesse such a peaceable tranquillitie such a happy light of his Gospell And when Antichriste hath spread abroad his Champions and euen throwne out his fiery Dartes of his diuellish inuentions yet hath the Lord stept betwene them home and caused their shame to redound in their owne faces that when they haue gon so far foorth as they haue boastingly sayd VVe will preuaile the Lord hath stood vp in the middest of his Congregation sayd I will defend my chosen And yet to beholde how smal accoūt we make of it how slenderly we regarde it how vnnaturally we run frō him might mooue vs if we had any grace or feare in our selues to returne with pierced harts sobbing consciences and euen out of the bowels of our soules to crie O Lord haue mercy vpon vs miserable offenders That we faithfully and vnfainedly may do this let vs euery one heaue our harts and handes to the Lord be inwardly intirely sory for our so manifolde offences and praye that long may his Gospell shine among vs long maye our moste Gratious Queene gouerne vs long may we faithfully serue him truely and obediently honour and looue her And all that doo repine at her gratious continuance may eyther chaunge their mindes or be speedily cut off Amen GOd preserue and blesse our moste gratious Queene Elizabeth and encrease the number of true and faithfull Subiects Amen FINIS
