Disasters both in Church and State have been great Additions and Kindle Coles which have made not only many that have some Learning and are ex meliori luto better born and bred but the Mechanick and Illiterate part of the People to take themselves to be a kind of State-Menders and to make their small Capacities the rule and measure of their foolish Prognosticks and are as like to hit the white or mark as he that stands without the Doors of an House a mile off it and undertakes of himself without the help or Information of the Inhabitants to know what is every day and night hour or minute thereof done within the House or as some Mountebank Physitian who without the Aid or Sight of the Patient or any Inquiry into the Symptoms Indications or Progress of the Disease should promise a never-failing Cure of his Sickness or Distemper and may as little deserve his Fee as a Lawyer who should adventure to give his Opinion or direct his Client how to proceed in his Action or Suit without any knowledge at all of the Fact So as those State Almanack-makers by such an Extravagant and incertain Ephemeris would do well to be more modest and cautious in their Opinions and not to expose the Honour of their King and Soveraign to the foolish and ill-digested Censures of themselves and others and make themselves the Conduit-Pipes to convey their Follies to the more Ignorant part of the People who although by God's mercy to a causeless murmuring Nation from the Winter to the Spring from the Spring to the Summer from the Summer to the Autumn and from the Seed time to the Harvest when the Valleys sing and the Earth is loaden with the Increase thereof and so all along not for one but many years together they might understand how often they have sinned against the Divine Mercy and Providence by their Complaints of the weather too hot too cold too wet too windy too dry so as scarce one day in every ten of the year can get an universal liking or good word of the ways of God's Providence and should when they have found themselves every year so often and so greatly mistaken be once ashamed and forsake that unquietness of Spirit will not withstanding not only continue those their mis-doings and humours in the Case of God Almighty as a Custom or Privilege belonging to their Farms and Husbandry but in the height of all their Peace without which their Plenty would be blasted so very much traduce scandalize and mislike the Royal Cares of their King and God's Vicegerent and be so unjust and unreasonable in their Complaints and fault findings as though they sit under their own Vines eat the fat of the flock lye down upon their beds of Ivory sing to the Harp rise up to play enjoy a Peace and Plenty to a Surfeit and the Envy of all their Neighbours and may Weekly read and hear of the Miseries and Sufferings of many Neighbour Nations by Wars and Invasions of one another yet they must never be contented but be every day and very often in every day finding fault with the Government As if the Government of the King and the Government of the King of Kings as to the weather were always to be blamed Whilst they ought rather to be so careful of themselves and their Posterities as to abominate those foolish ways of censuring Authority and to take heed that God do not Punish us for our unthankfulness and abusing his so many and all sorts of Mercies under a Prince Who besides all his other Royal Cares and Concessions added unto those of his famous great Ancestors and Predecessors Kings and Queens of this Realm for the Preservation of his Peoples Liberties and Properties did no longer ago than in the 31 th year of his Reign for the better securing of the Liberties of his Subjects in their Persons and prevention of Imprisonments by sending them in Custody to some of the Islands consented unto an Act of Parliament under great Severities Forfeitures and Penalties to be inflicted upon such as should Imprison or Detain any Man after an Habeas Corpus brought as well in the Vacations as Terms And so far extended it as upon the Committing of any Man Prisoner by himself or the Lords of his Privy Council Lord Chamberlain or other great Officers of his Houshold they are allowed to be Bailed by the King's Justices of his Superiour Courts of Justice although when they themselves shall as they do often Commit or Imprison any man by their Delegated and Derivative Power from the King only they are not at all obliged to discharge any such Offenders upon Writs of Habeas Corpus And by that and those multitudes of former Provisions which our Kings and their Laws have made for the good and safety of their People from all the incursions of Arbitrary Power should not forget that there is not so much as an Imaginary fear or danger that any Subject of England can be injured by any Arbitrary Power or otherwise for which a present and sudden Remedy may not be quickly had or provided and that it is now a received Maxim in our Common Law That the King can do no wrong and that id potest quod de Jure potest So that there are very few unless such as would have the King to be as liable which our Laws did always forbid to Coertions Arrests or Punishments as the most ordinary or meanest of his Subjects are or ought to be or can be so ignorant in the course or Proceedings of our Laws but may understand That if he should cause any to beat or do any Injury or Trespass to any of his Subjects the Parties or Agents are by his and our own Laws to be responsible for it And believe that King James who had reason to understand Government and Affairs of State better than such kind of People did not err or say amiss in his Answer in the 19 th year of his Reign to a Petition to the House of Commons in Parliament when he declared unto them That None could have Wisdom to Judge of things of that Nature but such as are duely acquainted with the particulars of Treaties and of the variable and fixed Connexions of the Affairs of State together with the knowledge of the Secret ways ends and intentions of Princes in their several Negotiations otherwise a small mistaking of Matters of that Nature might produce more and worse effects than can be Imagined And remember that if Impossibilities could be possible and every one that foolishly fancies himself to be able could be able to manage or Judge of State Affairs yet we have no Laws that do allow every Man Coblers and Illiterate men not excepted to be a Statesman And that St. Jude reprehending those that despised Dominions and speak evil of Dignities gives us the Original from whence it comes for that they speak evil of those things they know not And
