Newes from Ipswich Discovering certaine late detestable practises of some domineering Lordly Prelates to undermine the established doctrine and discipline of our Church extirpate all Orthodox sincere Preachers and preaching of Gods Word usher in Popery Superstition and Idolatry with their late notorious purgations of the new Fast-booke contrary to his Majesties Proclamation and their intolerable affront therein offred to the most Illustrious Lady Elizabeth the Kinge onely Sister and her Children even whiles they are now royally entertained at Court in blotting them out of the Collect and to his Majesty his Queene and their Royall Progeny in blotting them out of the number of Gods Elect. JER 23. 1. Wee be unto the Pastors that destroy and scatter the Sheepe of my Pasture saith the Lord. ACTS 20. 28 S9 Take heed therefore unto your selves and to all the Flocke over the which the holy Ghost hath made you Bishops to feed the Church of God which hee hath purchased with his owne blood For I know this that after my departing shall grievous Wolves enter in among you not sparing the Flock Printed at Ipswich An. 1636. CHristian Reader this is the deplorable Newes of our present age that our Presses formerly open onely to Truth and Piety are closed up against them both of late and patent for the most part to nought but error superstition and prophanes Witnes those many prophane erronious impious books printed within these 3. yeares by authority pointblanke against the established doctrine of the Church of England and his Majesties pious Declarations in defence of Arminianisme Popery and Popish ceremonies and which is yet more impious and detestable against the very morality of the Sabbath and 4. Commandement the divine institution tule and intire religious sanctification of the Lords-day SABBATH and the necessity of frequent preaching exceedingly pressed in our Homilies and book of Ordination which some of our unpreaching domineering secular Prelates out of their Arch-piety towards God and Arch-charity to the peoples soules which they seeke to murther now so far detest that they not only give over preaching themselves as no part of their function suppresse most weekday Lectures in divers Countries but have likewise lately shut up the mouthes of sundry of our most godly powerfull painefull Preachers who have woon more soules to God in a yeare than all the Lord Bishops in England or the world have done in diversages out of meere malice to religion and the peoples salvation contrary to the very Lawes of God and the Realme and strictly prohibited under paine of suspention in sundry Diocesse all afternoone Sermons on the Lords own Day tha● so the prophane vulgar might have more time to dance play revell drinke and prophane Gods Sabbaths even in these dayes of plague and pestilence to draw downe more plagues judgements on us for this sin of Sabbath-breaking when as not onely the Synod of Dort but sundry Popish Synods and Bishops have bin so religious as to prescribe TWO SERMONS every Lords-day at least in every parish Church to keepe the people from such prophanations of this sacred Day Alas what could Belzebub the Prince of Devils had hee beene an Archbishop or Lordly Prelate here in England as there were many Divels Bishops at least Bishops Divels in Bernards age and most feare there are too many now have done more against the strict intire sanctification of the Christian Sabbath day to make it the Divels day in stead of the Lords day and to advance his owne kingdome and service on it or against the frequent powerfull Preachers and preaching of Gods Word and salvation of the peoples soules then some Luciferian Lord Bishops have lately done whose impiety in this kind transcends all presidents whatsoever in former ages And yet these prophane atheistical graceles persecutors of all holines piety sincerity godly Ministers and preaching of Gods Word yea in these pestilentiall times as meanes to spread the plague though the Scripture and all former ages have prescribed fasting preaching and praying as the chiefe antidots and cure against it will needs be Lord B●shops lure divino by the holy Ghosts owne institution who never yet instituted any unpreaching rarepreaching Prelates or persecutors and suppressors of preaching and shame not to stile themselves the godly holy Fathers of our Church and Pillars of our faith when as their fruits and actions manifest them to bee nought else but the very Step fathers and Caterpillars the very pests and plagues of both Take out one fresh instance for an example these desperate Archagents for the Divell and Pope of Rome and Master-underminers of our religion as they were the onely instruments of delaying the present generall fast in the beginning of the pestilence when it was most acceptable and requisi●e So to shew their inveterate malice against preaching the thing that the Divell wrastleth most against all whose study hath beene to decay the office of preaching which should not be deminished they contrary to his Majesties pious intention who hath so oft protested against all innovations have cunningly caused all Sermons the very life and soule of a fast as being the onely means to humble men for their sins bring them to repētance to be prohibited on the fast-day both in London and the Suburbs and in al other infected places during the time of the infection in them in parishes not infected as if preaching only of all Gods ordinances were pestilenciall that on the fastday not on others contrary to the presidents of all former ages the Orders sor the generall fasts in the two last great plagues which prescribed two Sermons of one houre long apeece forenoone and afternoone every fast day and that as wel in parishes infected as others even in the Summer season when the infection was more contagious and raging than now By which device they have not only made this fast distastfull to all sorts of men in infected places who have little heart unto it robbed the poore of much charitable reliefe and deprived the people of the spiritual food Physick of their soules when they need and desire it most to their intolerable griefe discontent but quite suppressed all settled Wednesday Lectures in London and other infected Townes as long as the infection shall continue in any one parish though it should last these 7 yeares the thing they principally aimed at forced many Ministers people to flie out of infected places into the Country to keep their fasts where there is preaching brought in a famine of Gods Word the greatest plague of all others to the increasing further spreading of the present pestilence drawing downe of Gods wrath upon us to the utter most by inhibiting Ministers in the time of greatest need to preach unto the people that they may be saved O heavens stand amazed at this unparalleld practise

tyrannizing Lordly Prelates raysed from the dungh●● who make havock of them both O our most pious King Charles as thou hast in two severall Declarations protested before God to all thy loving Sub●ects that thou wilt never give way to the licensing or authorizing of any thing whereby ANY INNOVATION IN THE LEAST DEGREE may creepe into our Church nor ever connive at ANY BACKSLIDING TO POPERY and that it is thy hearts desire to be found worthy of that title which thou esteemest the most glorious in all thy Crowne Defender of the faith to now behold these desperate innovations purgations and Romish practises of thy Prelates in open affront of these thy Declarations now or never shew thy selfe as we all hope beleeve and pray thou wilt a Prince more worthy of this glorious Title than any of thy royal progenitors by rooting all Popery superstition idolatry errors innovations out of this Church and Kingdom by restoring the preaching the Preachers of Gods word and purity of his worship and taking vengeance on these perfidious Prelates who have thus gelded thy fastbook and intend to make an Index expurgatorius upon all other ancient English Writers ere they be reprinted a thing considerable thus openly abused thy onely sister and her children now present with thee oppressed and grieved thy faithfull subjects dishonored thy God betrayed thy religion increased the plague among thy people as much as in them lyeth robbed thee both of thy Gods and peoples loves pulled thy Crowne off thy Royal head to set it on their own trayterous ambitious pates by exercising all ecclesiastical power yea Papal jurisdiction over thy subjects in their own names and rights alone and by trampling all thy lawes and Subjects liberties like Cobwebs thy subjects like Dogs and dirt under their tyrannical Papal feet If thou thus execute judgement on them and ease thy people from their intolerable tyranny no doubt this plague shall be ceased and this fast be pleasing to the Lord else he wil not accept it but proceed to plague us more and more O blessed Soveraigne that thou didst but heare the severall cries and outcries of thy people against these persecuting Prelates in many places especially in our Norwich Diocesse where little Pope Regulus hath playd such Rex that hee hath suspended above 60. of our sincerest painefullest conformable Ministers both from their Office and Benefice so as many of our Churches as the like was never since King Iohns dayes are quite shut up and Lord have mercy upon us may be written on their dores the people cry for the bread of their soules and their Ministers are prohibited to give it them This not onely wounds but breakes their hearts and makes them amazed O therefore gracious Soveraigne helpe now and heare the petitions cries and teares of thy poore people and hang up these Popelings for these and other their innumerable oppressions extortions innovations and harmes who suspend imprison and ruine others for meere toyes and trifles yea for defending your royall Prerogative against their Papall usurpations This is all the newes I shall now impart in this Coranto the next weeke God-willing you shall heare of Mr. Dade his excommunicating of Ferdinando Adams a Churchwarden in our Towne for not blotting out this sentence of Scripture written on Mr. Wards Church wall over his bawdy theevish Court It is written my house shall be called an house of prayer but ye have made it a den of theeves which excommunication is of record in S●archamber of our Bishops commanding Wo is me if I preach not the Gospel out of Mr. Scots Church and of the strange proceedings at Colchester against Mr. Samuel Burrowes for inditing Parson Necoman for rayling in the Communion Table Altarwiso and causing the Communicants to come up to the rayle to receive in a new unaccustomed maner contrary to the Statute of 1. Eliz. c. 2. and his Majesties Declarations this last Michaelmas Sessions which Inditement the Grand-Iury hath found but his Majesty yet can get no judgement In the meane time I shall conclude my Newes with the words of Patricke Adamson Archbishop of St. Andrtwes in his Publike Recantation in the Synod of Fiffe Aprill 8 1591. That the office of a Diocesian Bishop hath no authority at all to support it in ths Word of God that it is only founded on the politicke divise of men that the primacy of the Pope or Antichrist sprung from it that it is worthily condemned and that it hath been for 500. years and more the chiefe originall and instrument of suppressing the preaching of Gods Word in all Kingdomes as all Ecclesiasticall Historians testifie I therefore shall close up all with the Collect on S. Matthias day Almighty God which in the place of the traytor Bishop Iudas didst chuse thy faithfull servant Matthias to be of the number of the 12 Apostles Grant that thy Church being alwaies preserved from false Apostles may be ordered and guided by faithfull and true Pastors through Iesus Christ our Lord. And with the Collect on St. Peters day Almighty God which by thy Sonne Iesus Christ hath given to thy Apostle St. Peter many excellent gifts and commandedst him earnestly to feed thy Flocke make wee beseech thee all Bishops and Pastors diligently to preach thy holy Word and the people obediently to follow the same that they may receive the Crowne of everlasting glory through Iesus Christ our Lord Amen From Ipswich November 12. 1636.
