A96291 A declaration to Great Britain and Ireland, shewing the downfall of their princes, and wherefore it is come upon them: because Christ is riding on his white horse, conquering his enemies till he have destroyed Antichrist, who hath made the nations drunk with the cup of her fornications: and till he have destroyed Mahomet, that great deceiver of the people. / Written and directed to Great Britain, and all other nations; by me Robert Wharton, wel-wisher to my countrymen, and to all the faithfull in Christ Jesus throughout the world. With an humble advice to the Army. This treatise is approved and commended, and thought worthy to be printed, by Master Hugh Peters. Wharton, Robert, fl. 1649. 1649 (1649) Wing W1575; Thomason E555_35; ESTC R204066 18,927 28

released banished the land to come no more but marke what befell in short time the King married his daughter to the King of Bohemia who were turned out of their Countrey and have lived as strangers in another Countrey and were maintained by the charge of England and their children fighting against the people of God as ye see to this day when they were turned out of Bohemia the next chance that befall Prince Henry was poysoned thus were his children curb'd and cut off though his children were thus miserably brought under and cut off yet did he not consider nor call to minde wherefore the Lord had brought this judgement on his children but sinned yet more by suffering a Papist house to be built up in Black-friers but marke what befell as soon as they were in their devotions with their strange gods the house fell down on their heads as Dagon fell before the Arke of God where were killed some fourescore persons besides what was maimed yet did not this strange work move him but he sinned yet more sending his sonne to Spain and France to get a wife that served strange gods and to make it appear more procured a Chappel for Papistry to be built up at Saint Jameses where it standeth to this day but take notice what befel him he that was his dearest friend whom he preferred before God and his people became his ruin which was the Duke of Buckingham who with his Mother wrought Sorceries and so poysoned the King as would have been proved if things had been brought to triall thus was his end miserable who preferred the enemies of Jesus Christ before the Lords worship not ruling the Nation in obedience to the Lord this being done and his dayes ended his son snatcht the Crown to his head Reigning in strange manner as ye have seen not ruling the people as in obedience to God and the Lord Christ but as a covetous King to God's dishonour preferring his own designes before Gods word he suffering any thing to be done for money preferring the friends to Papistry before Gods worship and preferring the Duke that helped to destroy his father before the whole Kingdome slighting the whole Nation and set him up in the throne of his heart but miserable was that wicked mans end when he was cut off from him then were the Bishops and their friends set up in his heart he allowing them to do whatsoever they pleased then did they begin to make havock of Gods worship changing the Sabboth into pastimes for people to serve the Devil and set forth an Order for it thinking that for sports and pleasure they could the easier draw the whole Nation to their designe and so put down the true worship of God then was Papistry advanced and all the friends to it in high esteem then did they thinke all was their own and nothing could hinder them so jovially went they on then went the King on in his designes suffering all that could bring money into his Treasury to reigne as petty Kings under him in pilling and polling the Nation by oppression as Patentees and making a new Freedome how many poore apple-women and broom-men rag-merchants and people of all sorts sold and pawned their bedding and their cloaths for a new Freedome and when all was done it proved a very cheat thus was the Kings coffers fill'd with oppression thus did the King his Bishops and his wicked crue reigne for a time But marke what befel when the Lord saw them thus triumphing in their jollity like the unjust Steward sitting and drinking with the drunken and smiting their fellow servants Luk. 12. Then did the Lord begin to a wake his people then did he stirre them up to prayer then did they begin to multiply and flock together then did the Lord put them Ezek. 36.37 Thus saith the Lord I will yet for this be inquired of by the house of Isarel to do it for them I will increase them with men like a flock But mark when the wicked crue faw what was doing and knew not what would become of their projects then did they begin to smite them about the eares imprisoning them and banishing them then did they see what they could do with Scotland then were they thrown out with these white coats then did the people in the City of London begin to grow more sensible when they saw the Scots withstand them and so became stronger and stronger when the King the Bishops and their wicked crue saw their wicked designes begun to shake and cotter then were they in a straight nothing would serve their turne but the destruction of the people of God then did they in their wicked Counsels conjoyne with the King of Spaine to send an Army to cut off the City and take the spoile of it for his reward then did they raise an Army against Scotland cunningly carried the arms and strength from Sussex and those parts their joyning to the sea that the Spaniard might not be exposed thus in their cunning designes did they conjoyn but take notice how they were befooled the King of Spaine sending his Army hither thinking all was his own was befooled wonderfully though he sent such great strength having many friends to entertain them as the Earle of Northampton an arch Papist and Pennington with his ships to assist him Dover Castle that should have been made strong to oppose such an enemy had nothing to resist them thus did our home-bred enemies assist forreign enemies to cut us off then did the Lord appear for us wonderfully and provided a neighbour Nation to sinke the Spaniards in the Sea yet was it an impossible worke for Van Trump to have done had not the Lord appear'd for us for Fennington with his ships fired at the Dutch-men and did them much hurt for which they did accuse him when he went with the Queen into Holland to the Hague how did the Lord work wonderfully in casting our enemies into the Sea who should have cut our throats and many of them that escaped with life came to the City to beg their bread who saw the glory of the City but could not share of the wealth of it now judge you whether the Lord appeared for his people or no but see farther how the King of Spain was served after he lost his great Navy at Sea next year after he lost the Kingdom of Portingale so let all the wicked be served that joyne hand in hand to destroy the inheritance of the Lord. Now when the King with his wicked Counsell could no way prosper but his designes still crost and befooled with going to Scotland where he lost his labour and all the money that he had got in unjust wayes spent in that designe for Scotland then were the wicked crue enraged but the more they stirred the more they ensnared then began their woe then marke how Strafford was served for his wickednesse then was the Bishop taken by the Hornes like the Ram in the
