the Observations and Remembrances of former times instruct us to set a Guard upon our selvs and be cautious against any seeming risings or tempting motions of a Rebellious Temper tho masked with the specious Vizard of Religion Sedition like some other Crimes hath some seemingly insensible and almost unseen Springs but when those Motions are cherished they quickly grow into the Power and ability of doing Mischief It is as facil a thing to stop thy self in the Descent of a Praecipice when thou art in the middle thereof as to stop thy self when thou hast made an entranc and hast for some season been hurried on in the ways of wickedness Omne in Proecipiti vitium stetit When men give way to any uncomely and Unhandsome Action they may understand at what place they enter but can never tell when they shall come to an End When their feet go down to Death they cannot stay themselvs till their steps take hold of Hell when men undertake any wicked Enterprize who can fathom the conclusion of their designs and who can pierce into the depth of their Machinations If we should make a search into the Records of former Ages we shall find that the differences that wrought the desolating Battels that were fought between Greece and Asia Coesar and Pompey Augustus and Anthony did in the beginning Spring from slight and not valuable Causes But our own Knowledg and sad Remembranc hath largly and therefore sufficiently convinced us how hazardous and perillous it is to yield unto that we should not tho never so Inconsiderable What was the ground and cause of our late direful Calamities the most astonishing and amazing Mutation and Confusion the World ever beheld since the most dolorous Passion of the Holy and ever Blessed Jesus Was it not entred upon by Multitudes who never designed it and effected the Overthrow of that which both Parties pretendedly did endeavour to secure from Was it not brought about by yielding to and cherishing the Phanatique Freaks of the UNTHINKING MANY Whereby is transmitted to Satesmen and Governors of Kingdoms this Rule of Policy and Instruction That there is no Hazard or Peril so small and inconsiderable in its beginning but Connivanc may render it terrible and slighting of it make unconquerable But to return from whenc we may have a little seemingly digressed I Question not but several Persons have lost their lives upon the account of seditious Plots who in the beginning thereof did as highly detest and abhor the suspicions thereof as the most Loyal Persons alive Thus I doubt not but it was in the late Horrid Conspiracy the Discovery whereof with grateful Hearts we this Day make a Solemn Commemoration Let these few Instances I have produced make us Cautious and wary not to lend an Ear or hearken unto any Jealousies concerning our Soveraign and His Monarchy nor to attend with Delight while others make malicious Reports upon the one or the other Such as can with Pleasure hearken to Reproaches cast upon the King or Monarchy will suddenly believ Him not capable to Govern His Subjects 4. And lastly Let me desire you to offer your devout and hearty Gratitude and Thanks to the Majesty of Heaven for his gracious Protection over our Soveraign and implore his Mercy for a Continuanc of the same Defenc. And assuredly if ever we had ground to offer our Laud and Thanks to the Lord of Heaven for any Mercy we ought for this which is so compleat and terming a Blessing that it extends to all our Interests here upon Earth If we esteem our excellent Way of Worship our Estates or the Safety of our Persons the Publick Tranquillity and the Continuanc of our Monarchy we have cause to Praise the Lord for this Deliveranc Who is able without trembling to imagine the Confusions we had beheld at this time had this Conspiracy been compleated Who can tell by what Character they would have distinguished their Party from their Foes Certainly the Clergy had suffered most for it is strongly believed by some that there was not one Minister that wore a Black Gown but he should have been knockt on the Head as one popishly affected Praised be that Good God who rideth upon the Clouds and smiles at and disappoints the Machinations and Contrivances of such Rebellious Spirits Certainly the Ninth September will be recorded in the Annals of Time and should be kept as an Anniversary Gratulation as well as the Fifth of November or the Twenty Ninth May and may deservedly be accounted as great a Deliveranc as the Former and as valuable a Blessing as the Latter it being a second Restauration of His most excellent Majesty to His own Happiness and Glory as well as unto the Comfort and Joy of His Subjects whom God long continu and preserv amongst us unto which I hope all good Christians and Loyal Subjects will heartily and loudly say Amen Consider what hath been said and the Lord give you understanding in all things Now then unto God the Father God the Son and God the Holy Ghost be given of every one of us and by this whole Kingdom all Honor Glory Power Praise Might Majesty and Dominion particularly for the valuable Mercy of this Day from hencforth and for evermore Amen and Amen The End Sermons lately Printed for Walter Kettilby at the Sign of the Bishops Head in St. Paul's Church-yard A Hithophel's Policy defeated a Sermon preached on the 9th of Sept. 1683.
