thine so largely had enricht Thy fathers wealth which thou possest in court it was all gain● But nowe thy name with losse of it for euer thou hast stainde ANd Salsburie I marueile much what gracelesse Feend thee led Or diuelish bagge of hateful hell this mischiefe in thee bred Didst thou not knowe our gratious Queen is placed here by God By iustice for to punish vice with sharpe correcting rod ANd Iones how fel thy wittes away that thou couldst not remember That he which treasons doth conceale or traitors actes doth tender Of like and equal scorge shall tast and haue such punishment As he that author is thereof and doth the same inuent CHarnocke also what furie fell thy sencelesse heade did fraught With such vngodlie enterprise which thee to shame hath brought Now maist thou sée what fruitles gaine from Antechrist doth spring And how to shamefull wretched end the Pope his people bring DIstressed Dun thy dismal day thou iustly hast deserued That wouldst consent her to destroy who thee and vs preserued In quiet peace from time to time and alwaies doth deuise Gods trueth to raise within her Realme and poperie doth despise ANd trusties Trauis what meanst thou this treason to conspire Thou thoughts by this to mend thy state and thereby clime vp hier But now thy fall deseruedly thy name hath more disgrac'd Then all the actes thou euer didst in fauour had thee plac'd ANd gracelesse Gage was feare of God and duetie so exilde That thou thy name with treason foule so lewdly hast defilde Wel maist thou cu●ss● thy careles course thou tookst in this attempt And wish thou hadst euen at thy birth bene from the world exempt ANd Bellamie though last not least in this diuelish deuice What was the game thou hopst to haue for this bad enterprise The Pope of like did promise thee that thou shouldst saincted be But in meane time thou quartered art a thing more fit for thee ONe other Bellamie there was amongst this cursed crue What was the recompence I pray he should receiue in lue Of this his traiterous enterprise perhaps he should be martred But if he had not hangd himselfe he surely had bene quartered Now may you see you faithles wights what fruite from tresons spring Now may you see what wretched end your haples hope doth bring Now may you all with open crie the hower and time both cursse That euer you lent your listening eares to her whose words haue worse Bewitcht your wretched senceles mindes that you could not forsee The guerdon alwaies incident to workes of treacherie Then euer Circes wicked charmes did anye wight enchaunt For God forbid that traitor shoulde of good successes vaunt THe Scottish Quéene with mischiefe scaught for to perform the will Of him whose Pupil she hath bene hath vsed all her skill By wordes most fair and louing termes guifts of value great For to perswade your hollowe harts your dueties to forgette And for to be assistant stil her treacheries to further Wherein she reckens it no sinne though you commit great murther Such is hee haynous hateful minde who long hath liued in hope By such her subtil lawles meanes and helpe of cursed Pope Both to depriue our soueraigne Queene of her imperiall crowne And true religion to expell Gods gospell to put downe And though to collour this her fact she onelie did pretend A title and her libertie yet God will vs defend As plainelie doth and may appeare by this his speciall care He hath of this our soueraigne Queene and of our happie fare Yet you be witched wretched wights her Siren songes did hear And gaue such credite thereunto as nothing you did feare But traiterously forgetting cleans the duetie you did owe To this your gratious soueraigne as al the world did knowe Did giue consent you would forthwith by al the force you might Sake to depriue this péereles Prince of Realme and regall right Wherein you fully did conclude that it could neuer be Except you first conspirde her death by secret treacherie And thereupon consulted ofte and sundry waies did seeke For to performe this diuelish acte which you so well did like Nexte vnto this your promise was to lend your helpe and aide With all the force and power you coulde to foes that should inuade And thereby for to set at large that Queene whome I did name Who alwaie in her treacherous minde doth nought but mischiefe frame These were the faithlesse partes you plaied at instance of that Dame Who sought your endes and vtter spoile with euerlasting shame For plainlie hath it fallen out by sundrie proofes most true She was the onelie maintainer of all this Traiterous crue For triall whereof we may see how that our gratious Queene Both hauing care the verie trueth most plainely might be seene And she with honor might be tried in that she was a Prince Did cause the chiefest peeres her faults by iustice to conuince Who did assemble at her place by name call'd Fodderingay There to examine out the trueth and heare what she could say And to that end did then direct to them a large commission For to examine euery one in whome they found suspition Who meeting at that place it plainlie did appeare Howthat she was the chiefest cause of al our troubles heare And that shée by perswasions did seeke for to withdrawe The subiects heartes from this our Quéene who ●arst had liu'd in awe And that the treasons nam'd before were al by her consent And that she author was thereof and did the same inuent Whereto her answere was so light and to so small effect As that the weakenesse of the same her treasons did detect And therevpon these Peeres of state hauing a due regarde To what she could obiect thereto and likewise nothing sparde by circumstance to search out trueth did forthwith then pronounce That she was guiltie of these crimes and could them not renounce Which sentence so by them declarde was by our Queenes consent Plainelie reueal'd to all estates in court of Parliament And was by them considered off who there did all agree To ioyne in sute vnto her grace the same to ratifie Where to our Quene with wonted grace and mercie beinge moued Was lothe to yealde consent thereto for that shee well her loued And if it coulde haue bene deuised howe shee mighte safe remaine From such like trecherous attemptes then is it moste certaine She woulde not haue agreed thereto but sought some milder way To deale with her although she sought her Graces sharpe decay But seeing there could no way be knowne how any trust might bee Reposde in one that had so ofte practised most traiterously The ouerthrowe of this estate and sought her Graces death She was resolued at the length though with a fainting breath For to confirme that sentence iust was by her Péeres decreede And that the same should stand in force as her own acte and deed Commaunding since in publique sorte for open declaration That it should notified be by publique proclamation This is the end the Lorde appoints for those that seeme to frowne Gainst his annointed whom he hath indued with regal crowne Fie on such fond and faithles wightes in whom no trueth doth dwell Who both alleageance duet●e loue and conscience doth expell Could any Christian fearing God or bearing any zeale To good religion christian faith or state of publique weale Finde in his heart for to deuise how he might darke a light That like the Ortent Sun doth shine thorowout the world most bright ●ath not her Graces gouernment this eight and twentie yeares ●ene had in admiration of al that thereof heares The fruite whereof doth plainely proue she is the Lords annointed Plast here by God for to performe what is by him appointed Such sencelesse sottes and dreaming doltes which at her state do spurne Doe seeme with Cieues by labour strong the riuers swift to turne Or els doe shoote against the skie and when their arrowes fall They light vppon their cursed corpes and kill themselues withall Liege people to so good a Quéene example take hereby Feare God in ●hiefe obey your Prince and loue her zealously Good englishmen and loyall heartes lift vp your mindes with mée Stretch out your handes bow down your knées vnto our God most hie And with incessant voice thus crie O Lord of might and power Preserue our Quéene from traitors force who séeke her to deuoure Cut off such gracelesse wicked graftes grub vp and roote their stocke Driue out such rauening wolues O Lord from out thy seely flocke Prolong her daies we pray thée Lord and if it be thy will Let vs not ouerliue her raigne but let vs haue her still Unto her Counsell likewise graunt thy wisedome from aboue That with al loyall faithful hearts they firmely may her loue Let al their counsailes euer tend her person to protect From rage of foe and popish crue that are with mischiefe dect Upon the commons Lord also poure downe thy heauenly grace That in all states a perfect loue and duetie may take place Towards this péereles Prince of price who alwaies doth delight To haue thy praises beautified and glory brought to light Amen thereto let all men say with ioy of inward heart And they that will not say Amen the Lord them soone conuert Or spéedely confound at least and bring to shamefull end That by their fall al others may their
