know_v very_o well_o that_o the_o protestant_a cause_n be_v a_o good_a cause_n and_o that_o god_n will_v be_v assistant_n to_o they_o to_o defeat_v the_o assault_n which_o satan_n and_o antichrist_n make_v upon_o they_o yet_o ought_v not_o these_o thing_n to_o be_v despise_v nor_o they_o to_o sleep_v secure_o on_o such_o persuasion_n but_o aught_o to_o believe_v that_o it_o be_v a_o providence_n of_o god_n that_o stir_v up_o any_o to_o make_v discovery_n thereof_o to_o those_o who_o life_n and_o safety_n be_v in_o hazard_n that_o they_o may_v the_o better_o secure_v themselves_o from_o those_o enemy_n who_o thus_o assault_v they_o to_o the_o end_n therefore_o that_o all_o protestant_a prince_n and_o all_o professor_n of_o the_o true_a religion_n may_v have_v warning_n to_o avoid_v these_o conspiracy_n of_o the_o pope_n of_o rome_n and_o all_o popish_a prince_n i_o will_v through_o the_o help_n of_o god_n clear_o and_o undaunted_o declare_v and_o make_v know_v the_o most_o wicked_a confederacy_n and_o devilish_a art_n and_o machination_n of_o the_o popish_a confederate_n against_o the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o what_o i_o shall_v relate_v be_v not_o slight_a and_o trivial_a story_n pick_v up_o from_o the_o discourse_n of_o ordinary_a person_n or_o idle_a monkish_a dream_n but_o what_o i_o have_v hear_v myself_o from_o the_o pope_n own_o mouth_n and_o from_o the_o cardinal_n themselves_o and_o which_o have_v come_v to_o my_o knowledge_n from_o the_o authentic_a write_n of_o popish_a prince_n under_o their_o own_o hand_n and_o seal_n nor_o be_o i_o fright_v with_o the_o wrath_n and_o indignation_n which_o i_o be_o like_a to_o sustain_v from_o king_n and_o potent_a prince_n incense_v by_o this_o discovery_n for_o i_o ought_v to_o be_v more_o afraid_a of_o god_n who_o be_v able_a to_o destroy_v both_o body_n and_o soul_n than_o of_o those_o who_o have_v power_n only_o to_o kill_v or_o torment_v a_o frail_a and_o mortal_a body_n be_v they_o enrage_v and_o full_a of_o indignation_n and_o if_o god_n so_o permit_v fall_v fierce_a upon_o i_o i_o be_o sensible_a i_o do_v acknowledge_v that_o it_o be_v from_o god_n that_o i_o be_o hereunto_o move_v and_o incite_v and_o shall_v notwithstanding_o their_o rage_n undaunted_o make_v know_v their_o treacherous_a conspiracy_n hear_v therefore_o all_o you_o that_o bear_v a_o good_a will_n to_o the_o protestant_a cause_n and_o take_v good_a heed_n to_o what_o you_o hear_v pope_n clement_n the_o eight_o who_o be_v at_o this_o time_n pope_n of_o rome_n have_v by_o strange_a artifice_n oblige_v to_o himself_o well-nigh_o all_o the_o prince_n in_o europe_n not_o willing_a to_o neglect_v so_o fair_a a_o opportunity_n to_o establish_v his_o tyrannical_a power_n do_v endeavour_n with_o might_n and_o main_a to_o carry_v on_o and_o establish_v the_o holy_a league_n as_o they_o call_v it_o of_o all_o popish_a king_n and_o prince_n against_o the_o protestant_a interest_n and_o which_o as_o to_o the_o great_a part_n be_v already_o conclude_v 1._o for_o the_o emperor_n the_o king_n of_o spain_n the_o archduke_n of_o austria_n albert_n and_o ferdinand_n the_o duke_n of_o bavaria_n lorraine_n and_o savoy_n and_o almost_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o popish_a prince_n except_o the_o french_a king_n and_o the_o great_a duke_n of_o tuscany_n have_v already_o consent_v and_o subscribe_v the_o league_n and_o the_o pope_n move_v every_o stone_n to_o engage_v the_o rest_n to_o concur_v with_o they_o and_o be_v in_o hope_n to_o effect_v it_o 2._o this_o league_n consist_v of_o divers_a head_n the_o way_n of_o proceed_v the_o time_n the_o preparation_n the_o proportion_n which_o each_o of_o they_o be_v to_o contribute_v to_o this_o holy_a war_n they_o be_v plot_v and_o contrive_v against_o the_o protestant_n and_o on_o this_o they_o be_v in_o all_o point_v agree_v that_o all_o these_o confederate_n shall_v with_o joint_a force_n endeavour_v the_o extirpation_n of_o protestant_a religion_n by_o all_o the_o mean_n they_o can_v 3._o the_o emperor_n about_o a_o year_n ago_o be_v earnest_n with_o the_o pope_n for_o money_n and_o aid_n against_o the_o turk_n whereby_o he_o may_v be_v able_a either_o to_o repress_v his_o insolence_n or_o at_o last_o bring_v he_o to_o honourable_a term_n of_o peace_n or_o some_o last_a truce_n promise_v that_o so_o soon_o as_o he_o shall_v have_v dispatch_v his_o business_n with_o the_o turk_n he_o will_v employ_v all_o his_o strength_n and_o force_n for_o the_o pope_n against_o the_o protestant_n or_o as_o they_o call_v they_o the_o heretic_n 4._o the_o pope_n be_v very_o much_o incline_v to_o a_o peace_n with_o the_o turk_n and_o for_o this_o reason_n will_v not_o last_v year_n give_v ear_n to_o the_o ambassador_n of_o the_o persian_a king_n who_o press_v he_o to_o a_o general_a confederacy_n against_o the_o turk_n for_o the_o pope_n reckon_v that_o the_o protestant_n be_v a_o great_a hindrance_n to_o his_o affect_a tyranny_n than_o be_v the_o turk_n and_o do_v oft_o complain_v that_o a_o long_a war_n have_v now_o be_v manage_v for_o forty_o year_n together_o against_o the_o turk_n to_o no_o advantage_n whereas_o in_o the_o same_o time_n with_o far_o less_o expense_n the_o church_n of_o rome_n may_v have_v recover_v her_o authority_n in_o europe_n and_o he_o do_v therefore_o endeavour_v to_o persuade_v the_o turk_n to_o seek_v a_o peace_n and_o persuade_v the_o emperor_n to_o let_v he_o have_v it_o on_o reasonable_a term_n 5._o in_o the_o year_n 1601._o cardinal_n dietrichstein_n bishop_n of_o clomute_v come_v in_o great_a haste_n from_o prague_n to_o rome_n and_o bring_v letter_n to_o the_o pope_n from_o the_o emperor_n promise_v the_o pope_n to_o put_v in_o execution_n by_o force_n of_o arm_n the_o sentence_n which_o the_o emperor_n have_v give_v in_o behalf_n of_o the_o pope_n against_o the_o protestant_n in_o the_o cause_n concern_v good_n ecclesiastic_a which_o he_o command_v to_o be_v in_o all_o place_n restore_v to_o the_o use_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n and_o from_o thence_o the_o pope_n conceive_v hope_n of_o some_o occasion_n to_o be_v offer_v of_o begin_v some_o broil_n and_o commotion_n in_o germany_n and_o it_o be_v agree_v between_o they_o that_o the_o great_a part_n of_o those_o good_n shall_v be_v distribute_v among_o those_o who_o shall_v be_v most_o active_a in_o that_o war._n 6._o the_o same_o cardinal_n do_v at_o the_o same_o time_n promise_n as_o he_o say_v in_o the_o emperor_n name_n that_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n while_o thing_n be_v get_v in_o readiness_n for_o a_o open_a war_n the_o emperor_n and_o the_o prince_n of_o austria_n will_v whole_o turn_v out_o all_o protestant_n within_o their_o hereditary_a dominion_n as_o in_o austria_n tyrole_n croatia_n carinthia_n stiria_n and_o the_o like_a place_n and_o that_o they_o will_v in_o like_a manner_n fall_v upon_o they_o in_o moravia_n silesia_n and_o bohemia_n first_o without_o noise_n if_o it_o may_v be_v and_o then_o by_o force_n of_o arm_n especial_o of_o those_o soldier_n which_o come_v back_o from_o the_o war_n of_o hungary_n for_o in_o such_o case_n they_o do_v not_o think_v fit_a to_o trust_v the_o german_a soldier_n and_o that_o he_o have_v already_o grant_v to_o they_o the_o spoil_n and_o pillage_n those_o people_n in_o case_n they_o return_v not_o to_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n 7._o the_o pope_n legate_n now_o resident_a at_o prague_n do_v write_v some_o month_n ago_o that_o all_o these_o thing_n be_v in_o great_a part_n already_o dispatch_v that_o the_o protestant_n be_v cast_v out_o of_o those_o province_n and_o the_o jesuit_n by_o the_o emperor_n permission_n possess_v of_o most_o of_o the_o protestant_a church_n and_o place_n not_o only_o in_o austria_n and_o carinthia_n but_o likewise_o in_o silesia_n and_o moravia_n and_o that_o the_o french_a soldier_n under_o the_o command_n of_o one_o count_v benegrave_n have_v already_o burn_v some_o village_n in_o the_o border_n of_o bohemia_n and_o that_o they_o intend_v this_o year_n to_o make_v more_o progress_n therein_o especial_o by_o the_o assistance_n of_o the_o italian_n which_o the_o pope_n send_v into_o hungary_n chief_o for_o this_o end_n to_o spoil_v and_o destroy_v the_o protestant_n 8._o the_o emperor_n have_v also_o promise_v that_o he_o will_v not_o henceforth_o confer_v

inform_v that_o daily_o many_o of_o the_o nobility_n in_o germany_n do_v renounce_v the_o lutheran_n and_o turn_v to_o the_o romish_a religion_n and_o that_o on_o such_o
