'T is true thou wast detained in the Pazzarella here a place most fit for thee and thy mad Brethren where had both thou and they been timely put as you might have been in Justice and should have been in Prudence all the late miseries and abominable wickednesses of England had in all likelyhood been prevented Nor was it without evident reason That my Officers shut thee up in Bedlam Thou cam'st out of a Rebellious Countrey where thou and thy Fanatick Brethren committed a Wonderful and Horrible thing Jer. 5.30 Ezek. 11.2 Murther'd your lawful King to devise mischief and give wicked Councel in this City Thou didst pretend a Spiritual Call and I know not what Revelation which prov'd a false vision and divination Jer. 14.14 a thing of naught and th deceit of thy heart far surpassing the frenzy of the more ancient Enthusiasts When thou wast soberly admonished to abandon that deluding Spirit which leads thee and thy Brethren into so many exorhitancies and set thy face toward London Ezek. 21.2 thou didst ●ost pertinaciously contemn that good Councel and persist in thy ways of Abomination refusing to depart out of my City Rome forgetting those words Rev. 18.4 thou hast so often misinterpreted Go out of her my people lest thou partake of her sins and receive of her punishments Why could'st thou not take heed and more warily understand a Text so plainly fore warning thee to flye from her Ezek 13.3 left she should punish thee Thus saith the Lord God woe unto the foolish Prophets that follow their own Spirit and have seen nothing While thou wert kept in the Roman Bedlam was not the Discipline of the place exactly observed to thee Jer. 4.18 Ezek. 14.10 aswell as to the rest of thy fellow Bedlams didst thou want any thing there but thine own wire Thus therefore it came to passe that thy way and thy doings procured these things unto thee it being just that thou shouldst bear the punishment of thine iniquity 2.
