not impart his mind unto him for that he is perswaded he will never condescend thereunto in moving him in that affayre he shall but loose his labour and peradventure be repulsed with blame Well what then what doth the Friar Mary he sayes Courage m●●n Frers and without any further delay hee excommunicates the party himselfe I demaund in this case Quid juris It● answered that the Friar is mercifully dealt withall 〈◊〉 he bee but set upon the Pillary or upon an Asse and whipt naked from the waste upward thorough the streetes of Paris And why because he presumes to execute that power which he never had True it is That conformable unto the Canons above alledged as also the immemorable customes constitutions of these Kingdomes in case of enormous crimes as Theft Murder Perjury Simony Heresie c. as also disobedience proceeding to incorrigibility c. and that not onely in Clearkes but in Laicks unto their Ecclesiasticall superiours as Bishops other Prelates after spirituall remedies used as admonitions censures depositions degradations c. at the instance of the Church upon a siguificavis there commonly issued out a Writ from the Kings high Court of Chancery Decapiendo excommunicate De comburen do baretico c. according to the quality of the delict If then our Archbish hath proceeded in this legall manner with his subject is arrived at the uttermost extent of Episcopall jurisdiction He may then require the assistance of the Secular arme by intimating his Processe into the Kings Court of Iustice which if they answere his desires so it is if not he must rest contented and not thinke to erect a new Tribunall and a new course of proceeding contrary to what before by authority of Church Common-wealth is established and by custome of so many ages confirmed To make him selfe both Prince Prelate both Bishop and Civill Magistrate to plucke the Roses from the Kings Crowne and to place them in his owne Miter For by so doing he may draw the sword of the Secular arme upon his owne neck and in prosecuting others make himselfe an offendor in the highest degree How often doe we finde in former ages when both Prince and Prelate were of one lip and heart in divine worship and acknowledged obedience unto the Pope in matters spirituall Yet even in those times did not those Catholique Princes alwayes answere the instance and requisition of their Bishops in lending them the assistance of their sword and secular arme but sometimes were slow and remisse in that kinde of correspondency yea sometimes did absolutely deny the same As who so will peruse the Ecclesiasticall History of the Church collected by that learned Card. Caesar Baronius in his Annalls Or our Countrey-man Nicholas Harpsfeild in his Ecclesiasticall History of England shall easily finde And so often as this hapned what did those Prelats forsooth contained themselves within the bounds of their spirituall and Episcopall juvisdiction never attempting to hang burne or banish as our hor-spurre Frians have perswaded our Archb. to the great scandall of Gods Church and his owne utter ruine if the King bee not the more mercifull unto him Which matters well pondered by the B. of Meath it is no wonder that hee told our Arch that they were none of his friends that procured him that Commission from Rome to pronoūce sentence of exile against any of the Kings Liege people by which act himselfe might come to bee in the same predicament with Tho. Flemming Archb. not onely a bad member of Gods Church but a disloyall subject unto his Majesty verifying that of the Prophet Psal 49. Cùm videbas furem currebas cum to c. CAP. III. The informations by which the Archb. his Friars procured from the Congregation of Cardinalls De propagandâ fide the Commission of Paul Harris his exile from the Diocesse of Dublin POpes and Princes Cardinalls Bishops are men and no Angells according as they are informed so they speake so they write so they determine causes so they absolve and so they doe condemne I remember I have read in Philip Commines his history of the warres twixt the French King Lewis II. Charles Duke of Burgundy that in some services wherein the French had the worse routed more upon a Pannick feare then any just cause of terror some Commanders being after by the King called to an accompt for their cowardise The Author observes so reports it That certaine Captaines and great Monsieurs that ran from the field but six leagues off were severely punished for their offences and others who fled from the field and ran ten leagues beyond them were highly rewarded for their valour good service Noting as I said before that Princes by reason of an impossibility of proper knowledge in themselves as touching the estate of absent affayres are forced resting upon informations to judge accordingly walking sometimes upon the right hand and other whiles upon the left And so it hapned in the cafe of P. H. who by Friar Wadding the Archb. his Agent in the Citty and others of his fraternity as well shodd as bare-footed Friars his mortall sworne enemies is accused to be a most turbulent a seditious person disobedient to all lawfull authority and as one confirmed in contumacy remaines incorrigible and so incurable without hope of amendment c. And thus have the Friars chanted their Mattins at Rome P. Harris the defendant of his innocencie in the mean time lyes at anchor in the Port of Dublin little knowing how the windes blow abroad till upon these suggestions there comes from the Citty not a Commission to any particular Bishops or other Prelats to examine his cause or to heare what the Archb. can alledge against him or he make answer thereunto but the perclose of all judiciall proceedings namely Sentence and that is thought fit to bee of Exile out of the Diocesse wherein he lives and that sentence commanded unto the B. of Meath to pronounce But now heare good Reader what Paul Harris saith unto this information Albeit nothing more or other can hee say then what he hath delivered in his former Bookes Even the same which all the Cleargy of Dublin doe know at this day to be true That which so many of the Laity as take notice of our troubles doe know to be true That which the Friars themselves the onely causers procurers of all these intestine broyles twixt the Cleargy and the Regulars best of all know to bee true Namely that this information made by the Archb. and his Friars unto the Cardinalls at Rome is most false most unconscionable wicked that it is a meere Chimera an En●rationis without any existent foundation And to the end that the world may againe againe understand in all places that which in these parts is most palpable I could wish not the shell of a Triton but the trumpet of an Arch-angell to sound it thorough sea land
