THE Observator's Observations UPON THE BILL of EXCLUSION Let every one mend one and begin the Reformation at Home Do as You would be done by is no Text for Excluders TRIMMER THere 's more a Stir with You and your Politiques Morals and Duties than with half the Town beside As if there were no brains forsooth but under your Night-cap no conscience or loyalty but under your doublet Prethee let 's have no more of these invidious and grating reflexions upon Controversies that are now dead and buried no raking of Exclusions and Associations out of their Graves again Reform at home first before you break-in upon the Province of your Neighbours Let but every man mend one and we shall quick'y have a good World on 't In fine do as you would be done by is a good Lesson OBSERVATOR Wouldst thou have the History of the Exclusion so forgotten as to leave the common people still poring and bro●ding upon the Principle of it Or wouldst thou have such an Amnesty pass'd upon the Association as utterly to suppress the memory of the Crime and yet uphold the reputation and credit of the Position consequently support the lawfulness and the authority of the Practice So that all this while here is but private medling on the one hand to the hazard and dishonour of the Crown the Royal Family and the publick Peace and private med●ing on the other hand to detect the Rottennels the Hypocrisy and the pernicious Tendency of those Doctrines and Doings How comes it to be more lawful nay and laudable too for a Quack to give the Kings Subjects Poyson in their Po●ridge then for an honest man to ofter them a plain Doss of Sallet-oyle to setch it up again And now to go on with ye 'T is good advice for every man to Reform at home before he takes upon him to reform others And it is as good advice taken as given If you find that I do not practice my self what I inculcate to others do but say Wherein and I shall take it well to be minded of it And in the mean time I would have you to consider a little of Governing your self by those measures that you prescribe to others What are all your Petitions but Invectives against your Superiors and Censorious Reflections upon the management of publick Affairs How many thousands of bodies and souls How many millions of Money might have been sav'd if your Weavers your Butchers Tinkers and Coblers had been kept to their Looms their Kettles and their Stalls instead of trooping to Westminster to advise with the Close Committee about the settling of Religion and State the Rights and Priviledges of Parliament the Liberties of the Subject and the Reformation of England and Ireland in Doctrine Worship Discipline and Government according to the word of God and the Example of the best Reformed Churches And I know nothing to the contrary but that the late King might have ordered the business of Calling and Dissolving Parliaments or of making War and Peace Every jot as well by his Authority Royal or the advice of his Privy Council without troubling so many Bumkins and Mechanicks to leave their Ploughs their Shops and their Trades only to lend a Helping Hand to the keeping of the Ark steddy The very support of your Interest is the license of the multitude and the only Argument for your Cause is the madness of the people VVhat are all your Vox-Populi's and Patriae's but the Usurpations and Encrochments of Fools upon the business of Wise Men and the setting of the Government upon the Head with the heels uppermost what are all your Popular Remonstrances and Addresses I say but so many Attempts of the Mobile to confound and subvert the order of the Publick by intermedling in matters which they have nothing to do withal VVhy d' ye not live-up to the moderation that you Preach and keep within the compass that you prescribe The Subjects part is Resignation and obedience and that which you impose upon the world for Reformation is downright Sedition and 't is not the Name or Colour of Liberty or Religion that will bear-out private men in any Enterprises whatsoever upon the work and authority of their Governors In one word your Conversations are a direct Contradiction to your Precepts and your Discourses Trim. As in what Particulars I prethee Obs. Why truly in the Whole Course of what you either Recommend or condemn you are the greatest meddelers in Nature your selves and yet at the same time the Greatest Complainers of other peoples medling as if the Reputation of a Trimmer were more Sacred on the One hand then the Honour of the Government on the other And 't is much at the same Rate that you manage the Doctrine of do as you would be done by As for the purpose How would all your popular Sticklers for the Sovereignty of the People take it to be Beaten out of doors by their Own servants and to have their Children rise in Rebellion against their Fathers What a hurry have we had what Plotting Swearing and Conspiring to cut-off the unchangable Succession of the Crown as the only Expedient under the Sun to deliver us from Death and Damnation To say nothing of the Imposture both of the Fears and of the Dangers To say nothing of the Treason that was Cover'd under the Cloack of That Exclusion To say nothing again of the Malicious Manage of the Contrivance which was as Rude and unmannerly as it was Wicked and unjust But to speak a word now to parity of Reason in the Case How would the Agitators of the Exclusion of a Lawfull Prince take it to be pay'd in their own Quoyn and Disinherited themselves If either Conscience or Pollicy may be heard upon the Point the Equity lies Infinitely Stronger Against the Subject If they shall pretend to be Jelous without Reason Pragmatical against Law and Impossing beyond president In one word according to your Rule of Do as you would be done by Every man that would disinherit deserves to be disinherited Trim. Nay I have nothing to say to the contrary but that it was an Ill Bus'ness Though the Devil let me tell ye is not always so black as they paint him Obs. But for the Devil of the Bill of Exclusion I Defy All the Painters in nature to make him blacker then he is But no man can Sufficiently Abominate That Execrable Project without laying it in All the Hideous Colours before his Eyes Do but Read it there a litle and if thou hast but one Drop of Honest English or Christian Bloud in thy Veins 't will fire the very Soul of thee with Indignation and Horrour Iames Duke of York is by this Bill in the First place to be made For ever Uncapable to Inherit Possess or enjoy the Imperial Crown of this Realm and of the Kingdom of Ireland and the Dominions and Territories to them or either of them Belonging or to have Exercise or Enjoy Any
