A30035	The pilgrim's progress, from Quakerism to Christianity containing, a farther discovery of the dangerous growth of Quakerism, not only in points of doctrine, but also in their politicks, respecting their government, and opposite to it, together with their fund or common bank to support the same : with a remedy proposed for this malady, and the cure of Quakerism : to which is added an appendix, discovering a most damnable plot, contriv'd and carrying on by New-Rome, by an united confederacy, against the reformed religion and professors thereof, as will appear from the designs of their silent meetings, their monthly, quarterly, second-day, six-week, and yearly meeting, all which are particularly herein treated on / by ...

tacit Confession of great Guilt run up a Cock-loft at least a Chamber Four Story high to hide himself Let now the Quakers remember their Book where they say Some of the Presbyterian Nonconforming-Preachers are fled Beyond-Sea others lurk in Corners here and there and keep private Conventicles where many times they preach Sedition against their Lawful Prince c. as I before observed and let Mr. Penn remember and be humbled and thankful for the Favours he has receiv'd and the Forgiveness he has met with And let him look upon his Preface viz. To the Christian Quaker and his Divine Test The PRIESTS like FOXES seeing their KENNEL TUMULTUOUS BLOOD-THIRSTY COVENANT-BREAKING GOVERNMENT-DESTROYING ANABAPTISTS keep their old Haunt of creeping into GARRETS Cheese-lofts Coal-boles and such-like Mice-Walls * Now W. Penn himself was forced to hide and upon a far worse Occasion than those he mentions as may be seen by Their Majesties Proclamation c. By the King and Queen a Proclamation for Discovering and Apprehending William Penn and James Grahme MARIE R. Whereas Their Majesties have received Information That William Penn Esq and James Grahme Esq with other Ill-affected Persons have Designed and Endeavoured to Depose Their Majesties and Subvert the Government of this Kingdom by Procuring an Invasion of the same by the French and other Treasonable Practices and have to that End held Correspondence and Conspired with divers Enemies and Traytors and particularly with Sir Richard Grahme Baronet Viscount Preston in the Kingdom of Scotland and John Ashton Gent. lately Attainted of High-Treason For which Cause several Warrants for High-Treason have been issued out against them but they have withdrawn themselves from their usual Places of Abode and are fled from Justice Their Majesties therefore have thought fit by and with the Advice of their Privy Council to Issue this Their Royal Proclamation And Their Majesties do hereby Command and Require all their Loving Subjects to Discover Take and Apprehend the said William Penn and James Grahme where-ever they may be found and to carry them before the next Justice of the Peace or Chief Magistrate who is hereby Required to Commit them to the next Goal there to remain until they be thence Delivered by due Course of Law And Their Majesties do hereby Require the said Justice or other Magistrate immediately to give Notice thereof to Them or Their Privy Council And Their Majesties do hereby Publish and Declare to all Persons that shall Conceal the Persons above-named or any of them or be Aiding or Assisting in the Concealing of them or Furthering their Escape that they shall be proceeded against for such their Offence with the utmost Severity according to Law Given at Our Court at White-Hall the Fifth Day of February 1690 1. in the Second Year of Our Reign Whereupon as I was credibly informed one Mr. Pennyman on the 22d of that instant February 1690 1. in Abhorrence of this Traiterous Conspiracy uttered these Words in their Meeting in White-Hart-Court in Grace-Church-Street London Viz. He that is a Traytor or he that in the least goeth about to betray this his Native Country he is a Traytor to the Living God and he that is a Traytor to his Maker is not nor cannot be a Disciple of Jesus that Holy and Just One and he that is guilty of such cursed hellish Practices must bear his Judgment whoever he be But as an Aggravation of this their Crime they did not only make that Order for the suppressing the said Address to the King which was writ I believe in Love and Good-will to him c. but suffered their Printer Andrew Sowle a Quaker to print several Odious and Scandalous Books and Papers of Mr. Stafford's against the Government and tho' they were friendly and privately acquainted with it with Desire that those Scandalous Books c. might not be dispersed yet they could not be prevailed withal to have them stopt However to do the Quakers all just Right we must acknowledge some of them and indeed but some and that of their Hearers too were for the Government who to give them their due drew up a Paper against W. Penn for being concerned in that horrible Plot with the Lord Preston c. For they having seen his Letters that he had writ on that Occasion in Aaron Smith's Custody and were assured that they were of his own Hand-writing This Paper was signed by W. Mead and a few more who would have had it made Publick but the contrary Party being powerful prevented it Only when W. Penn after his Sculking some Years appeared by our merciful King's Favour and preached as formerly in the Quakers Meetings then W. Mead and some others took him to task telling him That tho' the King had pass'd by his Offence yet they knowing him Guilty as by the said Letters under his own Hand was manifest they ought to have Satisfaction as they were a Religious Society before he preach'd in their Assemblies But he having the Teachers on his side and the Generality of the Hearers he went on nolens volens and if there had not been a Peace 't is to be still feared that W. Penn and his Confederates for some of 'em held it out to the very last asserting it for a Truth that there would be no Peace unless c. would have pursued their Design which might have proved fatal to this Nation But still to shew that the Quakers have rather merited the Displeasure of the Government than the Favour and Countenance thereof and of which they so often boast viz. of their being Recognized Protestants of their being Free-born Englishmen and thereby of their Rights and Priviledges as such I shall recite an Abstract of another Act of Parliament and shew their Non-submission and Aversion thereunto intituled Anno Septimo Octavo Gulielmi III Regis An Act for the better Security of His Majesties Royal Person and Government N o 551 552. Whereas the Welfare and Safety of this Kingdom and the Reformed Religion do next under God intirely depend upon the Preservation of Your Majesty's Royal Person and Government which by the merciful Providence of God of late have been delivered from the Bloody and Barbarous Attempts of Traytors and other Your Majesty's Enemies who there is just Reason to believe have been in great Measure Encouraged to Vndertake and Prosecute such their wicked Designs partly by Your Majesty's Great and Vndeserved Clemency * * W. Penn is not this true towards them and partly by the want of a sufficient Provision in the Law for the securing Offices and Places of Trust to such as are well-affected to Your Majesty's Government and for the Repressing and Punishing such as are known to be Disaffected to the same Be it Enacted c. No. 554. Whereas there has been a Horrid and Detestable Conspiracy formed and carried on by Papists and other Wicked and Trayterous Persons for Assassinating His Majesties Royal Person in order to encourage an
