as Purgatory for the Contrivance of a new Gun powder Treason and make a Covenant with Hell for your Destruction And if I can bring my projects to a period I will hold a Spiritual Court in Smith fi●ld and decide all Controversies with Fire and Faggot till I levil the Nation with the Dust and make the Isle of great Britain acknowledge me for their Superiour Finally I cannot but resent your Deportment towards my Neice your Glorious Queen who left England without bidding Farewill to her favourites only taking along with her the Prince of Wales whom you term her supposed Son. But it is an Hyperbole beyond the Conception of Humanity that a King pretending to so much Reason Religion and Piety should Praise or rather mock God for a Child whilst his Queen had lonely conceived a Pillow and was brought to Bed of a Cushion to Cheat his Subjects of their Ancient and Royal Line and his own Posterity of their Crowns and Kingdoms This was the old contrivance of another Mary-Queen but Philip was more a man than to own the Brat of Sophistry and Father the Impudence of so villanous a Fact.

Calend. Jan. 1689. The Church of England's Answer to the preceeding Letter Grand Impostor VVHether you with your Clergy be possest with the Spirit of Error and Delusion and cast in a Bed of Sensuality to wallow in your own Filthiness with your Eyes darkned and your Ears deafened we know not but certainly there must be a great Mysterie in your Obstinacy For you shut your Senses which are the Gates of your Understanding against the clearest Evidences of Truth Scripture and Reason Our learned Divines have these several years confuted your opinions of ridiculous Nonsense by sound Arguments and undeniable Demonstrations till being wearied with your contradictions Grooms Pages and Porters began to discover your Nakedness in your Ignorance and Superstition and by writing against you to convince you of your Foolries Fopperies and Chimerical Fancies Yet for all this are you not ashamed of your Abominations and Filthiness Thus since you shut your Ears against the word of manifast Truth and the Kingdom of Heaven against the whole World denying the principles of sure and unquestionable Faith we desire none of your Converse for there can be no Fellowship betwixt Light and Darkness nor between God and Belial for they that are wilfully filthy will be filthy still neither can we send you any answer fitter than that the Grecian Church sent to Pope John 23. when he wrot to them to bow and submit to him as to their Terrestial God and Infalible Supream We do assuredly said they acknowledge your high Power over your Subjects but we cannot abid your high Pride we cannot quench your gridy Covetousness The Devil is with you but God is with us Thus with the Eastern Churches we must leave you and let you alone Yet with the Prophet will we wa●l over you and cry out We would have Healed Babylon But she is not Healed Remember what the Lord saith Isaiah 50 11. Behold all ye that Kindle a Fire that compass your selves about with Sparks Walk in the Light of your Fire and in the Sparks that ye have kindled This shall ye have of mine hand ye shall ly down in Sorrow Thus not Fearing your Power Curses nor Thunder-bolts of Excumunication nor all the Train of your Infernal Court whilst God is with us we continue still stedfast in that Faith whereof Christ Jesus is both the Foundation and chief Corner Stone who is able to preserve and present us spottless before the Throne of his Grace with exceeding great joy To whom with the Father and Holy-Ghost be ascribed Glory Honour and Praise with Dominion Majesty and Power World without end Amen London Jan. 6th 1689.
