over us we need not fear what Enemy could annoy us God of his Mercy Grant us Peace in our days and give us Eyes to see and Hearts seriously to consider the things which do belong unto our Peace before they are hid from our Eyes Amen POSTSCRIPT I Shall by way of Appendix transcribe a passage out of that very learned and excellent man Dr. Sanderson in his Preface to his Sermons bearng date July 13 1657. where clearing the regular Sons of the Church of England from the unjust Aspersions of being Popishly affected he saith 1. That those very persons who were under God the Instruments of freeing us from the Roman yoke by casting Popery out of the Church and sundry of them Martyred in the Cause those very persons I say were great Favourers of these now accounted Popish Ceremonies and the chief Authors or Procurers of the Constitutions made in that behalf 2. That in all former Times since the beginning of the Reformation our Arch-bishops and Bishops with their Chaplains and others of the Prelatical Party were the principal I had almost said the only Champions to maintain the Cause of Religion against the Papists 3. That even in these times of so great distraction and consequently thereunto of so great advantage to the Factors for Rome none have stept into the gap more readily nor appear'd in the face of the Enemy more openly nor maintain'd the fight with more Stoutness and Gallantry than the Episcopal Divines have done as their late learned Writings testifie Yea and some of them such as besides their other Sufferings have lain as deep under the Suspicion of being Popishly affected as nay other of their Brethren whosoever 4. That by the endeavours of these Episcopal Divines some that were bred Papists have been gained to our Church others that began to waver confirmed and setled in their old Religion and some that were fallen from Us recovered and reduced notwithstanding all the disadvantages of these confused Times and of each of these I am able to produce some Instance But I profess sincerely as in the presence of God and before the world that I have not known at least I cannot call to remembrance so much as one single Example of any of this done by any of our Anti-ceremonian Brethren whether Presbyterian or Independent But I have somewhat to return upon these our Brethren who thus causelesly suspect us Possibly it will not please them 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 but I must speak it out both for the Truths sake and theirs to wit That themselves are in truth though not purposely and intentionally whereof in my own thought I freely acquit them yet really and eventually the great Promoters of the Roman Interest among us and that more ways than one First by putting to their helping hand to the pulling down of Episcopacy It is very well known to many what rejoycing that Vote brought to the Romish Party How even in Rome itself they sang their Io Paeans upon the tidings thereof and said triumphantly Now is the day ours now is the fatal Blow given to the Protestant Religion in England They who by conversing much with that Nation were well-acquainted with the fiery turbulent spirits of the Scotish Presbyterians knew as well how to make their advantage thereof and handled the matter with so much cunning by fomenting their Discontents underhand till they had framed them and by their means some of the same Party here to become the fittest Instruments for the carrying on of their great Designe And this I verily believe was the very Master-piece of the whole Plot. They could not but foresee as the Event hath also proved that if the Old Government a main Pillar in the Building were once dissolved the whole Fabrick would be sore shaken if not presently shattered in pieces and ruin'd things would presently run into Confusion Distractions and Divisions would certainly follow and when the Waters should be sufficiently troubled and mudded then would be their opportunity to cast in their nets for a draught c. Whoso pleaseth may read on and indeed the whole Preface is highly worthy to be read and judiciously considered especially at this Time FINIS A Catalogue of some Books printed for and sold by Jonathan Edwin at the Three Roses in Ludgate-street A Sermon preached on the Thirtieth of January 1678 9. being the Anniversary of the Martyrdom of King Charles the First of blessed Memory and published at the request of some Friends by Edward Pelling Rector of St. Martins Ludgate in quarto Ancient and Modern Delusions discoursed of in three Sermons upon 2 Thes 2. 11. concerning some Errours now prevailing in the Church of Rome by Edward Pelling Rector of St. Martins Ludgate in quarto The true Liberty and Dominion of Conscience vindicated from the Usurpations and Abuses of Opinion and Perswasion in octavo The Countermine or a short but true discovery of the dangerous Principles and secret Practices of the Dissenting Party especially the Presbyterians shewing that Religion is pretended but Rebellion is intended and in order thereto the Foundation of Monarchy in the State and Episcopacy in the Church are undermined in octavo The common Interest of King and People shewing the Original Antiquity and Excellency of Monarchy compared with Aristocracy and Democracy and particularly of our English Monarchy and that absolute Papal and Presbyterian popular Supremacy are utterly inconsistent with Prerogative Property and Liberty in octavo The Project of Peace or Unity of Faith and Government the onely Expedient to procure Peace both Forreign and Domestique and to preserve these Nations from the danger of Popery and Arbitrary Tyranny in octavo Two Sermons preached at the Funerals of the Right Honourable Robert Lord Lexington and the Lady Mary his Wife by Samuel Holden A.
