Yet this Pope by his Omnipotency dare Absolve him from this Oath and Undertakes to make Sin a Duty See Sir William Waller's Account of the present State of the Protestants there And see also The Politicks of France And whether all this Contest betwixt the Father and the Son about the Regalia's be not all a Juggle seeing the poor Protestants are among hands so sevearly Persecuted and pestilent Jesuits so Cordially Embraced Time will Declare Thirdly As to Ireland Dr. Oats Deposeth Narrat pag. 65 66. That this Innocent Pope sent his Bloudy Irish Hounds Commissions Arms and Eight Hundred Thousand Crowns that they might cut the Throats of the Protestants again as they had done by another Innocent Popes Order in One Thousand Six Hundred Forty One The Death of the Duke of Ormond should lead this Popish Dance the Pope looses of his Bloud-Hounds Four Jesuits who Undertook to Dispatch the Duke Twenty Five Thousand Irish were to Rise and play their Old Bloudy Game wherein they were Experienced and Artificial Gamesters These were to Join with a French Army to be Landed there and as good Gamesters of that Kind as they so fall on to their Old Trade of Massacring c. Yea some of those Irish Cattel had a Dispensation from this Pope to take the Oaths of Allegiance and Supremacy provided they promise to Betray their Garrisons and other Trusts So that when you see a Papist swallow those Oaths you may Swear 't is with such a proviso He hath some Trust or other to Betray Fourthly Holland There this Innocent Pope hath set his Foul Foot of the Beast to purpose in sending his Most Christian Son most Unchristianly to Scourge them for their Heresie and to over-run their Countrey with his Rapacious Army and had not God Almighty put an Hook into the Jaw of that Proud Leviathan at Utrech He had laid their Land under an Absolute Desolation To say nothing of His Intrigueing Influences to plunge them and us into a War to Wast and Weaken each other that He might the easier worry us both To say nothing of Hungary and other parts of Germany nor of the Three Northern Crowns in all which he hath throughly tryed the same Trusty Tricks of Divide and Command c. Yet while this Pope is thus Malevolent and Mischievous abroad embroiling all Countries with his Contagious Evomitions He is all this while Mighty Magnificent and Magisterial at Home strutting about in that Splendour and Grandeur as if He were more than a Mortal Man on Earth one of the Immortal Angels of Heaven Resembling the Angelical Nature not onely in Innocency in his Name Innocent but also in Lustre and Glory as to his Garb and Deportment Grant Him to be one of the Angels Order yet undervalue him not by reckoning him among the Inferior Rank No let him be Reputed no less than proud Lucifer a Prince or Principality among them c. Isa 14 14 As to his Innocency Angel like I can say little of it and sure I am nor no body else unless some of his Sycophants who can be content to lick up his Slaver as once one Parafite did a Tyrants no further than his Name Innocent will be the Guarranty To be Nocent in Nature as the premisies have proved him and to be Innocent in Name is to make himself a compleat lump of Contradiction However this Whore of Babylon can exactly Imitate Solomons Whore in wiping her Mouth and saying I have not done those mischiefs in all those Lands aforementioned But as to this Splendour and Glory Angel-like I have more to say than I have room for as to his Roman Grandeur never was Jaddus the High Priest of the Jews so Richly Arrayed for Glory and Beauty when Great Alexander met him and fell down to Worship him for a god as this Roman Pontifex in all his pompious pontificalibus is either sitting in his Chair of State or standing upright or strutting about The Prophet Ezekiel most graphically Describes this Anointed Cherub that Seats himself in the Holy Mountain of God sits as God that is a degree above an Angel covering himself with every pretious Stone the Rubys the Diamonds the Jasper the Saphire and Emerauld c. Ezek. 28.2.13 14 15 to 20. Oh what a glittering and glorious Scarlet coloured Beast is this thus bedeckt with Radiant Jewels No wonder if they give him this Canting Courtship Thou art the prime of all Bishops the Heir of the Apostles an Abel for primacy sure I am not for Religion a Noah for Government not for Righteousness an Abraham for Patriarkship not for Piety a Melchisedeck for Order an Aaron for Dignity a Moses for Authority a Samuel for Judicature a Peter for Power yea a Christ for Unction but none of them for Holiness though that be his Title No wonder if his pickthanks go yet higher in calling him their Lord God their Creator in whom they must Believe and whom they must Obey upon pain of Damnation no wonder if they say to this their God three times Oh Thou that takest away the Sins of the World have Mercy on us Thou canst make a Sin to be no Sin contra No wonder if Popelings Kiss the great Toe of their Great God in a Country where God hath Toes which Moses who came nearest him could not Discern and much less Kiss Deut. 4.12 15. No wonder if Kings and Emperours hold the Stirrop to this God when weary with walking and would Ride one Beast upon the back of another no wonder if Odeschalcho thought his Name too base for a God as Octavian did when chosen Pope at Eighteen Years old cast off his Name because Heathnish and calls himself John the Thirteenth but he proved such a God as used to drink Healths to the Devil and in his Diceing would Pray that Jupiter Venus and all the Devils would help him This was a Mad Jack indeed and as Bad a God who should be All good To conclude come my Country-men how can you like to Worship such a God who is rather a Devil Incarnate or the Devils Patriarch can you stoop to kiss his stinking Toe can you hold his Stirrup as too many are doing till he get upon your own Backs and Ride you to the Devil Grave Bishop Ushar feard a Massacre approaching and that this very Pope would be the chief Agent in it Can you Court in a bloudy Villain who will certainly cut your Throats Can you like to Trade with such a Cheat that is as Crafty as Cruel having as much of the Fox as of the Lyon in his Trash and Trumpery afore mentioned This Pope had great hopes of Reentry into England by his hopeful Plot hereupon Cottingtons Bones were brought to be Buried here to take possession of it as Jacob did in like matner of Canaan Indeed the late Comet frighted him into such a cold Sweat as nothing but a Dutch Stove could bring warmth into him again and the Cockatrice laid by the Prophetick Hen in Campideglis Garden stun'd him a little But now he Recovered with warm Cloaths and hot Cordials again yet I hope 't is but a lightning before his fall God forbid that the Imperial Crown of England should again Truckle to the Miter and Tripple Crown of this Pope Erasmus Satyrical Drollery prevailed against the Pope as well as Luthers Argumentative Gravity I wish the like Efficacy to this Discourse and let all good People say Amen FINIS

Vouchsafement and Low Condescention in his Unholiness indeed is only to Kiss the Stinking Toe of his Gowty Gulls but when this Cardinal came to pay his Visits and do his Homage unto his Mighty God Pope Clement the Tenth his immediate Predecessor he had the Honour without any prostrating posture save only a slight Congee to Kiss his Holinesses Hands with a Mental Reservation too Right Romanist like wishing him well in his Grave that he might upon such an Irresistible Resignation yeild up his Pontifical Chair to him Nay the Royal Complement of Kissing the Popes Hand only was not all the Honour he had from him but he is allowed to Kiss the Popes Mouth too Lorinus the Jesuit in Act. 6. doth acknowledg this Ceremony as to matter of Fact to be the Cardinals Prerogative above Kings and Emperours If the Kissing of the Bishop by the Priest at his Ordination do declare a Parity as above So this likewise must be an Indication that a Cardinal is a Popes Fellow yet Advanced above Kings and Emperours contemptible Titles and Offices to his by this mutual Embracement The Hebrew Rabbins do Read these words Gnal Pi Jehovah Deut. 34.5 which we Translate According to the Word of the Lord in this Sense That Moses Died at the Mouth of Jehovah which indeed the Hebrew Words do Genuinely and Gramatically signifie as if God had taken away Moses his Soul out of his Body with a Kiss in a most friendly manner could this Lord God the Pope Clement the Tenth have done so to Cardinal Odeschalcho when he Kiss'd him it had been no better than Osculum Iscarioticum rather a Treacherous than an Amicable Kiss in spoiling his Market of designing to become his Successor upon the Papal Throne and then had the World wanted him for Pope Innocent the Eleventh though both the Place and the Title might have been supplied by some other Person Had this happen'd so That Pope might have cry'd Quits for his wishing in his Mental Reservation afore mentioned the Pontifical Chair before the Time what loss this might have been to the Roman Church I know not but this I know upon more Infallible proofs than his own Infallibility that had he Died at the Mouth of his Lord God the Pope when that Complemental Kiss pass'd betwixt him and his Predecessor he had undoubtedly pass'd off the Stage with less Guilt the Horrid Popish Plot the Murder of Sir Edmondbury Godfrey and a Thousand more Diabolical Intriegues since that will lay with weight upon some Bodies Conscience sooner or later Veniet Veniet qui malè Judicata Rejudicabit Dies There is a Day coming which shall Judg Righteously all Matters over again though at present they be Hush'd up in Judgment and this may be done even in this World I add to all the former the Sixth Priviledg For so many must be the Number that it may the better Symbolize and carry a Correspondency with the Number of the Beasts Name which consists of Three Sixes 666. and therefore several Popes bore the Number of Sixtus and had I been of the Conclave an Honour I am no way Ambitious of I would have advised the Cabal that this Pope Elect should have taken upon him no other Name save that former Name of Sixtus and I would have press'd this Cogent Argument That seeing there had been before Sixtus the First the Second the Third the Fourth and the Fifth now One that will be Stiled Sixtus the Sixth not only makes the Odd Number Even but also the very Name will carry along with it a most Grateful Sound and Symphony This only would have been the mischief thereof that it might have Bordered a little too near the Number of the Name of the Apocalyptick Beast for this Name would have consisted of Two Sixes Sixtus the Sixth but that Name consists of Three notwithstanding this little difference in an Unit it might have Sounded some Alarm to the World This so much necessary Sixth Priviledg which this Cardinal Odeschalcho had was That his Cardinalship did Constitute him an Ecclesiastick Prince whereby he became a fit Mate and Side-Fellow standing upon equal and even Ground with the most Potent Secular Prince in Europe and therefore to Comport with this Princely Greatness the Canon Law allows him a proportionable Grandeur Sumptuous Furniture and all manner of Pompous Splendor for Supporting the Honour of that Dignity for to be one of the College of Cardinals is the Penultimate Promotion in the Roman Church it being the very Highest and Uppermost Step from which one or other of these Crafty Climbers Lands at last into Peters Chair And seeing Wealth is an Indispensible Perquisite as it is commonly call'd the Sinews of War so 't is no less the Nurse to Honour yea oft times more than Vertue upon this account Their Canon Law allows them most Rich Revenues most Rapacious Offices and Employs wherein as if they had got the Philosophers Stone they turn all they touch into Gold and Guineys The Italian Author of the Just weight of the Scarlet Gown gives a Candid and Ingenuous Account keeping the Scales even of those Crafty Intrigues and many Subtle Tricks that those Arch-Politicians do put in Practice to Enrich themselves to fill their Coffers by Sale of Offices that are Vacant by Pensions from the Court of Foreign Princes both France Spain and Germany who all strive not only to Counterballance one another but also by a pretty Greaso-Fisto with Yellow Ointment to Tilt the Ballance and so sometimes Advance their own Faction uppermost through the prevailing Interest of those their closely obliged Creatures the Cardinals who have such a mighty Influence upon all Debates and Resolves in that Pragmatick and Superintendent Court which Lords it and Laws it or at least would willingly do so not only over Gods Herritage the Church but also over the whole Habitable World The Scarlet Gown Author in his Epist Dedic speaks of the several Applications that are made to this Consistory of Cardinals from all Popish Princes and States especially from the Two Mighty Kings of France and Spain by their Ambassadors who ever lay Ledger at that Court and who always Address themselves to the most Politick and Powerful of these Cardinals striving to Outvie each other in their proffer of Fat Penssons to them giving them the best Spiritual Dignities and Promotions their Two Kingdoms can afford them which in either of them are plentiful enough provided always they will be engaged thereby to Espouse as much as ever they may the Interests of their Benefactors Crown to which they are thus obliged Herein these Court-Pensioners do Try the Trick of a Treacherous Judas who with his Quid Dabitis What will ye give me and I will betray my Innocent Master c. rather than play the part of Faithful Peter whose Successors though unlike him save only in Denying his Lord they would be reputed in Defending his Innocent Master from those that Assaulted him for notwithstanding never
