resolued once to translate the Papacy to Auinion in France if that a certaine Cardinall wiser then himselfe had not disswaded him The originall cause of all this hatred is iealousie together with a false perswading humor that our Church vsurps his holy power which somtimes he pretends from the Emperour Constantine and some other times from S. Peter Whether this exercising of another mans authority be legitimate or spurious let them who thinke themselues iniured redreste the iniury how they can In the meane time we perceiue the minde of man impatient of vsurpers and Detractors to boile for reuenge as if an euerflaming Torch were set vnder it No maruell then if Princes punish forgery and other detracting crimes He that detracts his Kings Prerogatiue with a malicious purpose to attribute the same to himselfe is Laesae Maiestatis r●●s guilty for wounding the Royall Maiesty and to be attainted of high treason Will King IAMES our dread Soueraigne suffer any subiect of his to weare a crowne of golde to de● act his royall authority to leuie armes at pleasure to encampe himselfe to hang a man without due course of law or to coine golde No it is against his prerogatiue against his Iurisdiction The world abides not two Sunnes No more can the vnited Empire of great Britaine endure but one supreme Monarch He that sueth into the Court of Rome detracts from the Kingly glory and therefore encuires the danger of Premunire Euen so if a subiect of this Realme bring in a Bull of Excommunication from Rome against another subiect it is by the auncient common law high treason against the King his crowne and dignity as hath beene adiudged in the Raigne of Edward the first For the King of England is the Vicar of the ●●ghest King In a Constable or any other it is forgery and detraction to write a warrant in a Iustice of Peace his name without his consent Yea and a Justice himselfe was fined in the Star-chamber circa 30. Elizab. Reg. for sending his warrant vpon suspition of felony with a blanke or window to put in ones name which he knew not at his friends request without certainly acquainting him with the matter before What a tedious quarrell continued with vnsheathed swords betweene the Turkish Ottoman and the Persian Sophy about the very colour of the Turbant which both were bound by their ceremonious law to weare Such another friuolous iatre hapned among the Friers touching the colour of their frizen weedes One stood vpon blacke betokening mourning another vpon white the displayed ensigne of innocency This busie body claimed it to be gray that their weeds being like vnto ashes might moue them to repentance That hare-brain'd Scholer proued out of Schoolemen and profound Dunces that all the rest of the Disputants were arrand Heretickes for their sinnes being as redde as Scarlet or as purple they ought not to hold with any other colour Many brawles many factions yea and bloud-sheds arose about these Idly vsurped colours till after diuers commotions decrees and orders on all sides infringed a finall end with much adoe was established by the generall Councell of Christendome There was a dangerous tumult in France very like to chance betwixt a famous Auncestour of mine out of Wales and the Lord Norris concerning their armes Both gaue the Rauen both challenged it from the same house from one Vrian Prince of Rheged otherwise called Carict in Scotland who eyther by conquest or marriage seated himselfe in our countrey of West-Wales My said Auncestour as our Walsh nature relies ouermuch vpon Genealogies and Heraldry and his Walsh company being no lesse then fifteene hundred horsemen and footemen could by no meanes be disswaded from the quarrel vntill the Duke of Nors●lke whose daughter sithence Countesse of Bridgewater was married vnto his heire sollicited King Henry the eight then in camp to take vp the Controuersie and order the Lord Norris to giue it flying and the others as he did before If mens mortall feuds conceiued against their emulous concurrents for light occasions and as the Prouerbe termes them for a Goats haire be so heynous hereditary so frequent so customary in all Countreyes why doe we tempt the Lord our God and doubt that his eternall Maiesty in whom there is not the least spot of sinfull perturbation hates Detractours of his euer-shining glory and also them which attribute his miraculous deedes to his creatures or enemies I say why doe we doubt that he detesteth them in a faire higher degree then if they were profested Atheists blinded with ignorance Hee that knowes his Masters will and doth it not is worthy of many stripes Wherefore I constantly auerre that the Lord hateth Antichristians Euchanters Coniurers and Witches for their detractions forgeries delusions and false miracles worse then the Heathen with all their Idolatries To this end that auncient Father affirmeth If any that went afore vs eyther of ignorance or simplicity hath not obserued that which the Lord commanded his simplicity through the Lords indulgence may be pardoned but we whom the Lord hath taught and instructed cannot be pardoned Where the Spirituall Steward lends one talent there he looketh the interest of one againe but where he exposeth out twenty talents there he iustly expecteth the encrease of twenty againe Like as a simple seruant sent out in a darkesome night and misseth his way deserues his pardon more freely then he which purposely gaddes and goes out of his way in the cleare day light preferring his own wanton pleasures before his Masters profite so the ignorant Christian sinning of meere simplicity is farre more tolerable then the enlightned Gospeller which afterwards dissembles and detracts vpon a greedy or gaudic hope of golden mountaines LINEAMENT XII 1 Wherefore God diuerteth his naturall creatures against mankinde 2 That all crosses and misfortunes proceede onely from God 3 That in any wise we must not delay repentance 4 An obiection against sudden death by the spirit of Detraction out of the Letany with a consutation thereof THus the starres haue their ordinary motions the Elements their courses and the Metcors their voluble dispositions except otherwhiles it please their Arch-mouer to diuert some of them as terrible alarums for our admonishment Then euery thing fights against vs Our natiue ayre strangles our wearied winde-pipes Our nourishment through gluttony works our latter end Fire water conspire against vs One dieth by fire another by water Thus armes he nature against
