to be a most happy instrument of thy soueraigne and Countries safetie consider and ponder according to thy ingenuous honour and right loyal wisedom this great work of God in the very fingers of that mans hand that was author of the letter the writing prooued to be like the writing vpon the plaister of the wall in the Pallace of King Baltazar when he thought all sure and yet that night he lost kingdome and life Mene Tekel Vpharsin Mene God hath numbred and finished you Tekel thou art weighed in the ballance and found too light Pare● thy kingdome and plot diuided and scattered and giuen to thine enemies the letter made loue and nature worke toward thee alone whose very fountaine and springs were stopped vp and shut close to all others and yet out of that ground their blinded harts infatuated minds might haue gathered that if blood or alliance or any other respect ought to haue moued them to haue bowels and feeling towards thee it might haue led others to haue had tendernes towards others also of their friends yea euen to all England the common parents of vs all and to euery sonne daughter of the same but that seeming to be wise they became fooles and the scripture must be true the mercies of the wicked are vnmercifull their bowels the seat of mercie are cruell if they that are euill can giue good thinges to their friends not stones but bread not scorpions but fishes how much more shall not our heauenly Father who made all euen pittie all and loue the images of his owne creation the works of his owne hands who hath better right to euery one of vs then any friend hath to his friend in any bond of nature for hee hath made of one blood euen all mankinde to dwell on all the face of the earth and hath assigned the bounds of their habitation wee are all the generation of God in him we liue wee moue and haue our being Doe thou wisely consider the Lords loue to thee and obserue prudently withall their leaden rule of their false loue for no good patriore can abide himselfe to be loued when his Country is hated obserue the wisedom of God to produce out of cōmon hatred particular loue out of particular loue generall safetie in his mighty power notwithstanding vowes oathes and sacraments of secrecie to set our sworne enemies to indight for our good to make their fingers write peace whose hearts hatched warre to order in his wise dispensation such a spirit of zeale and caution in you doe thou reuerence this great God in a true sense sound spirit of discerning spirits that hath honoured thee with so great seruice suggested and gaue grace to make the best vse of it as they prophecied in another meaning namely to be a great sauiour to Prince Country and yet remēbring what a holy father said Marie the great instrument of all Christians good she was more blessed by beleeuing Christ then by bearing him by receiuing him in her heart by faith then by conceiuing him in her wombe doe you my good Lord make this a meanes to increase your faith and resolution of conscience in the best maner blesse you the Lord praise him and magnifie him for euer O Thou mighty King and Queene Prince and Duke Counsailers Prelates Peeres Iudges Lawyers and Gentrie and generally all the Subiects of this land and estate whose heads stood vpon one necke to be striken off at one blowe whose bodies were in one ship of venture within an inch bord of drowning and within a step of death or rather on the top of a mast a horrible and hideous tempest growing all our Pilats and Marriners and cunning sea men a sleepe and we saw it not recognize with me in Queene Maries dayes they burnt many but at many stakes but heere they meant to burne vs all at one stake amongst the Romanes they put the tenth man onely to death in a generall prouocation heere nothing would serue but a generall slaughter euen the abhomination of desolation ouer so many sacred persons and so holy a place Let all them then that thus should haue died together learne holy feruencie of their enemies to striue for the common faith to giue honour and obedience to whom it is due Care and defence to whom it appertaines let all them in vnion of spirit and the holy communion of Saints with an indissoluble knot of truth peace concord common comfort and societie liue and loue and die together in an holy association in the quarrell of the Gospell and defiance to Babylon in the maintenance of one God one Christ one spirit one faith one truth one baptisme one communion one King one people that so liuing and dying together we may with one heart and hand one faith and truth one minde and mouth euer blesse one Lord praise him and magnifie him for euer O All you Churches of the Lord in any part of the world that call vpon the name of the Lord in truth for whose confirmation of your loue faith the Lord of hoasts hath so mightily pleaded among vs that maketh their pennes to write health who otherwise wished their launces to worke vs death to shew that hee walketh in the middest of the seauen golden candlesticks all whose territories and tents they hated deadly as vs professing their wills skill an eager desire to let some of them blood againe as they did heeretofore in Fraunce being cunning to destroy be you the more rooted in your holy faith resolued with all constancie in your religion and established in your spirits to serue so prouident a God in one vniforme profession of truth with vs for which God hath giuen so glorious a sentence that all variance set aside God may perswade Iapheth to dwell in the tents of Shem and Canaan to be seruant to them both and cast our selues into a perfect knot of loue to make defence against Gog and Magog that gather themselues frō the foure corners of the earth to compasse about the tents of the Saints and the beloued Citie that so as one flocke we may acknowledge one sheepheard and vncessantly blesse him praise him and magnifie him for euer O Ye mightie Lords Emperours of the world euen all the ten hornes and ten Kings of the earth the Kings I say who are kinne and brothers to one another all you worthy Counsailers who haue fulfilled Gods will in vpholding the Citie on seauen hills so long better then her owne hills could vphold her and now God putteth in your hearts by this warning what you are to looke for if you please not this scarlet woman as some of your most ennobled aucestors progenitors haue tasted in all your quarters with the losse of their dearest liues best kingdomes shee sitteth in Vatican and with her vaticinies and prophecies sendeth you and yours from the Castle of S. Angelo to death as the Alastor
