and would gain his Point in favour of Dissenters at leastwise as to the gaining his Prerogative in Westminster-Hall and when he thought he had gone pretty far that way he granted a Commission of Ecclesiastical Affairs which yet was not opened till the 3d of Aug. though it had been Sealed some Months before But at last out it came and whereas I have never yet seen it Printed but once and lest the same should be forgotten I shall insert it in this place and it runs in the following Terms JAMES the Second by the Grace of GOD King of England Scotland France and Ireland Defender of the Faith c.

Ireland qualified by the Tests to serve sent over an Army of Irish that were not qualified to encrease the English Army who by this time were grown intolerably insolent though the King by several Orders would have had their Quarters restrained to Victualling Houses Houses of Publick Entertainment and such as had Licenses to sell Wine and other Liquors The Officers too when they pleased would be exempt from the Civil Power And tho' the King had no other War upon his Hands but against the Laws and Constitutions of the Government yet he would make an obsolete Act of Parliament that made it Felony without Benefit of Clergy for any Soldier 's taking Pay in the King's Service in his Wars beyond Sea or upon the Sea or in Scotland to desert from his Officer to extend to this new-raised Army And because the worthy Recorder of London Sir John Holt would not expound that Law according to the King's Design he was put out of his Place and so was Sir Edward Herbert from being Chief Justice of the King 's Bench to make way for Sir Robert Wright to hang a poor Soldier upon the said Statute which afterwards did the Job without any further Dispute It would be an endless Thing to enumerate the disorderly Proceedings of this Year yet I doubt you will hear of no less in the next but you must stay a little and take a View of Foreign Proceedings before we shall have leisure to enter upon them And first we shall again begin with Hungary since we have nothing considerable nearer Home where the Imperial Arms to say nothing of other Advantages had prevailed wonderfully in taking of Buda the Capital of that Kingdom which so nettled the Turks that they resolved to use their utmost Efforts to retrieve their Honour this Season while the Imperialists were not idle on their part and the Scheme of the Summer's Business seemed to have been thus designed The whole Army which amounted to 62900 fighting Men besides the Troops of the Circles of Swabia and Franconia and others was to be divided into 3 Bodies the 1st being to act in Vpper Hungary under the Command of the Elector of Ba●●aria the 2d in Lower Hungary under that of the Duke of Lorrain and the 3d upon the Frontiers of Croatia under General Dunewald and that they might have Communication one with another there were 2 Bridges made one over the Drave near Tarnovitz and another over the Danube near Buda in the Isle of St. Marguerite and with this Disposition all the Troops rendezyoused near Barkan where the Duke of Lorrain arrived May 13 in Person from whence he sent out several Spies to discover the Number and Posture of the Enemy These reported They were stronger than the Imperial Army and were busie in repairing the Bridge of Esseck which after divers Consultations made the Duke move towards the said Place and the Croatian Army advanced also the same Way while the Elector of Bavaria with the Army under his Command seemed to threaten Erla in Vpper Hungary But other Work was cut out for them in the Lower as you 'll hear by and by For the Duke of Lorrain being advanced towards Feutar broke up June 17 from thence and continued his March towards Esseck and because the Army left Alba Regalis behind it a Body of Light-Horse were left behind to cover the Baggage and on the 18th a Bridge of Boats was laid near Tolna over which the whole Army passed by the 20th and encamped a Mile from thence and removed afterwards to Mohatz as they did their Bridge likewise that so the 2 Armies might succour each other The Duke at the same time sent an Express to the Croatian Troops to secure the Bridge that was laid over the Drave near Syclos and there erect likewise that of Boats that they carried along with them which was punctually performed From Mohatz the Duke marched on the 24th to Darda aside of the Bridge of Esseck which as soon as the Turks who were hard at work in repairing the Bridges over the Morass had Notice of they abandoned their Works and retreated towards the Bridge of Boats they had over the Drave and which they had secured with a good Fort of Earth and Wood having left some Bodies of Horse and Foot among the Moraffes to dispute the Approach of it with the Imperialists The Duke the Night following caused the Bridge and Disposition of the Enemy to be view'd and ordered the necessary Detachments to attack them by Break of Day when Word was brought him that the Enemy had taken away 2 Boats of their Bridges and that there was no appearance of them However a Detachment from the Army crossed the Morasses on the 25th and advanced towards the Enemies Bridge of Boats in good Order who when the Christians were come within an 150 Paces of them fired very furiously upon them so as that they were forced a little to retreat but being sustained with fresh Troops they charged the Turks with so much Resolution that they quitted their Post and retreated into their Fort from whence the Imperialists also drove them whom they pursued as far as the Gare of Esseck where they had like to have entred the Town Pell-mell with them The Imperialists endeavoured to preserve the Bridge but several Mills and Boats being set on float were by the Rapidity of the Stream thrown so impetuously upon it that they broke one part of it and hindred the rest from being seized on insomuch that it was now thought most advisable to set it on fire Next Day after having viewed the Ground and a Draught taken for the Building of a new Fort they began to break Ground which yet was not done without Disturbance from the Enemy but the very same Day the Christians entirely ruined the Dykes which the Turks had made upon the Morasses in the room of the Bridges that had been burnt towards the End of the last Campaign which was difficult Work And then it was resolved that a Line of Communication should be drawn from the Entrance of the Morasses as far as the Fort that so under its cover the Troops might pass that should be needful for its Defence in case the Turks were minded to attack it Things thus passed on till the 28th when the Duke of Lorain having chose out from among the Soldiers such as could Swim best he ordered them to go and fire the Boats Mills and Barges which the Turks had posted within Musket-shot of Esseck They punctually executed their Orders but the Enemy put out the Fire before it produced any Effect which with many other Considerations made the Duke call a Council of War next Day where having judged it impossible to pass the Drave at the Place where they were encamped it was resolved to break up from thence And accordingly on the 30th the Duke having left the Cavalry to guard the Pass and to ruine the Bridges of the Morass departed with the Infantry
Designs he proceeded now to shew how Absolute he would be in them and therefore on the 4th of May he passed an Order in Council that his Declaration of Indulgence should be Read in all Churches and Chappels throughout England and Wales in Time of Divine Service and that all the Bishops in their respective Diocesses should take Care to have the same accordingly performed There is no question to be made but they understood the King's Meaning well enough and that under a Shadow of Favour to be intended hereby to Protestant Dissenters all the Good imaginable was meant to the Roman Catholicks and that whatever was intended by it there was no Good meant to them nor their Church and therefore it was their Business to ward off the Blow which 7 of them endeavoured to do in an humble Petition to the King wherein their Reasons were set forth why they could not comply with the Order of Council But they were so cautious in the Matter that after it was drawn up they would let no other see it before it was presented And the same was as also the King's Answer to this Effect TO THE KING'S Most Excellent MAJESTY The Humble PETITION of William Archbishop of Canterbury and divers of the Suffragan Bishops of that Province now present with him in behalf of themselves and others of their absent Brethren and of the Inferior Clergy of their respective Diocesses Humbly Sheweth THAT the great Aversness they find in themselves to the Distributing and Publishing in all their Churches Your Majesty's late Declaration for Liberty of Conscience proceeds neither from any Want of Duty and Obedience to Your Majesty our holy Mother the Church of England being both in her Principles and in her constant Practice unquestionably Loyal and having to her great Honour been more than once publickly acknowledged to be so by Your Gracious Majesty nor yet from any Want of Tenderness to Dissenters in relation to whom we are willing to come to such a Temper as shall be thought fit when the Matter shall be considered and settled in Parliament and Convocation But among many other Considerations from this especially Because that Declaration is founded upon such a Dispencing Power as hath been often declared Illegal in Parliament and particularly in the Years 1662 and 1672 and in the Beginning of Your Majesty's Reign and is a Matter of so great Moment and Consequence to the whole Nation both in Church and State that Your Petitioners cannot in Prudence Honour or Conscience so far make themselves Parties to it as the Distribution of it all over the Nation and the solemn Publication of it once and again even in GOD's House and in the Time of His Divine Service must amount to in common and unreasonable Construction Your Petitioners therefore most humbly and earnestly beseech Your Majesty that You will be pleased not to insist upon their Distributing and Reading Your Majesty's said Declaration And Your Petitioners as in Duty bound shall ever pray c. Will. Cant. Will. Asaph Fr. Ely Jo. Cicestr Tho. Bathon Wellen. Tho. Peterburgen Jonath Bristol His MAJESTY'S ANSWER I Have heard of this before but did not believe it I did not expect this from the Church of England especially from some of you If I change my Mind ye shall hear from me If not I expect my Command shall be obeyed But how unpleasing soever the Petition might be to the King which is sufficiently evinced by his Answer and what Revenge soever he might ruminate within himself to take upon the Bishops for it the Chancellor though he thought his Eccl●siastical Commission big enough to suspend the Bishop of London and the Vice-Chancellor of Cambridge and to expel the Master and Fellows of Magdalen College in Oxford yet is seems he did not believe it sufficient to suspend these Bishop And therefore it was said he advised the King to Try them upon an Information of High-Treason at the King 's Beneh-Bar In order to this they were committed Prisoner to the Tower and that on the Day before I think the Legendary Birth of the Prince of Wales who came to Town on Sunday Morning the 10th of June that they might not have the Opportunity as it was the Place at least of some of them to be present thereat and make any Inspection into that pious Fraud But though the Nation was mightily alarm'd at their Commitment and more particularly with the Time and Circumstance of it and that this Discontent might have been read in the Faces of almost all Men ●●ve Romanists yet the Court unconcerned held on their Pace and accordingly the Bishops were Tryed in Trinity Term following at the King 's Beneh-Bar upon an Information of High-Misdemeanor as aforesaid for their Petition to the King But how secure soever the King and his Chancellor thought themselves of the Judges and though Sir Robert Wright who was Chief Justice and Sir Richard Allibone a known Papist were Two of them yet they were not all of a Piece for Mr. Justice Powell both learnedly and stoutly defended the Cause of the Bishops And though I believe the Jury of themselves upon considering the Merit of the Cause were sufficiently disposed to acquit them as they did accordingly yet surely if they had done otherwise I question whether all the King's Guards could have secured them from the Fury of the People who were not a little chafed with these Proceedings and wrought such Seeds of Discontent in the Minds of most Men that afterwards broke forth with a Witness And though it is not to be doubted but the Great Men of our Nation began before this to look about them and to have a watchful Eye upon every Motion of the Court yet this awaken'd them to purpose to seek for a Remedy against the impending Evil by such Methods and from such Persons as were most interested to divert the Course of them But of this we shall more particularly speak hereafter the Course of our History leading us 〈◊〉 to the Prosecution of Foreign Affairs and Campaigns 〈◊〉 ready to begin And first we shall again begin with Hungary We left off last Year with the Surrender of Agria a most pleasing Piece of News to the Imperial Court as was that of the Fortress of M●nga●z early this Spring no less grateful to it Famine and no other Reason was the Occasion of the Surrender of this Place as well as the preceding one The Fortress had been held out by the Princess Ragotzi Count Tec●eley's Lady in a manner ever since the Beginning of the War But now dire Necessity constrained that Noble Lady to surrender both it and her self into the Emperor's Hands as it appear'd evidently by her saying when the Capitulation was brought from Count Caraffa to be signed by her Must I Sign my Husband's Death For I am perswaded that as soon as the Turks come to know I have abandoned this Place they will take off his Head The Terms of
