In regard of your Honourable selfe who haue been chosen and singled out by wicked men both at home and abroade as a Butt whereat to shoote their venemous arrowes of slaunder threatnings and reproch by laying greuious but false imputations vpon your Honour of plotting Tragicall stratagems against Catholiques so stiling themselues and seeking king the bloud of Recusants 4.

The Honorable report of your name for many and excellent things are spoken of thee for thy zeale to Religion loue to the State and more expected from thee most faithfull

Because none can haue a better sence and feeling of anothers griefe then he that hath felt the like Afflictions Your Honour hath been by Sathans instruments threatned with vnavoydable Death But God who hithervnto hath still defende you and yet are those who were sayd to haue vowed the enterprize tearmed good men by those that in the libell seemed but God forbid that euer the saftie or ouerthrowe of the State should rest in their power to dislike of the powder treason therefore I doubt not but your Honour will defend the poore in a iust cause if neede so require against the rage and furie of the wicked and mightie 3.

Because true Nobilitie which were it not that I speake vnto your Honor I would say were seated in your breast neuer respecteth the person of any man but the qualities affections endowments and

God for his sonnes sake through the Grace of his holy spirit bind vp the sonne as I hope already he hath done the Father in the bundle of his Saints that after your long and faithfull Seruice to your earthly Prince with the father Sonne and Holy Spirit you may enioy the true Treasure of eternall happines in the Kingdome of Heauen Amen Amen Your Honors in all humble seruice TO THE WELL affected and loyall hearted Reader AS to the spirit and soule of man nothing internally then a good conscience can bee more comfortable so externally then a good report from others nothing can be more precious And as for the first euery one that will enjoye it must himselfe alone by the vprightnesse of his owne actions assure it vnto himselfe in the sincerity of his own heart so for the secōd as it depends not vpō ones selfe alone but vpon the tongues and reports of others euery Christian by the rules of his profession is chargeable to his power to seeke the preseruation thereof towards others whome hee knoweth to be wronged This being graunted as it cannot be denyed if euery priuate mans good name so neerely touch him as that for the preseruation thereof wee are all of vs to others reciprocally bound and by law diuine obliged How much more strictly then are all faithful subiects tyed as much as in them lyeth to maintaine the good name honour and reputation of their lawfull Soueraignes by traytors rebels And antichristians so vniustly jmpiously and jmpudently taxed both in words and writings For as his Majestie is our King by God appoynted to rule ouer his Brittish and Irish Israell both in Church and common wealth and as in dignity he is nulli secundus nay more for that may seeme to admit an equall Primus inter omnes without a mate highest euen so the blemish of good name honour and reputation in his Majestie is of all others most dishonourable most scandalous as his Majesty is of all others most eminent most conspicuous and therefore by euery good subiect as occasion offereth it selfe pro viribus to be maintained If a naturall father haue a bad name though vndeseruedly yet is that in the worlds eye that cannot iudge thereof but by report a scandall vnto the children Our King is more for he is not onely Pater familiae a father of a priuate family but he is Pater patriae a father of our Country nay more he is Pater multorum gentium regnorum a father of many Kingdomes England Scotland France and Ireland and which is most hee is a good Christian Christianae fidei Defensor the chiefe Champion for defence of Christian faith through whose sides the enemy seeketh to wound the whole Church of Christ and to lay aspersions of bloud and tyrany vpon all such as with him professe the gospell of Christ The consideration whereof as also a feruent desire to doe my Country some publique seruice in helping as much as in me lyeth to stop the mouths of our common aduersaries the Papists whose lauish tongs haue spit out aboundance of venome and their pennes stung like Scorpions not onely our late most gracious and woorthy Queene Elizabeth of euer-blessed memorie for the many vnspeakeable blessings that God with and through her bestowed vpon this and other Kingdomes But also our present Soueraigne Lord and King with both their state Ministers by charging them as falsely so maliciously with cruelty breach of promise bloud and bloudy persecution for conscience hath mooued mee to jmploye the best talent of my small ability to convince them of jmpudent and lying malicious slaunders and reproachfull vntruths First in a few following lynes directed vnto all Romish fauorites clearing my present gracious Soueraigne of breach of promise with Recusants for toleration of Popery wherein also I haue touched the ground of that slaunder with the occasion and Authors thereof with some other matters of speciall moment Secondly in a tabular computation by a comparatiue collection of all such Martyrs as were burned in Queene Maries days with all such Priests Iesuites

Iames confidering that so many more suffered in the lesse then six yeares raigne of Queene Marie onely for religion then haue sithence by their owne account beene executed in fiftie yeares of two succeeding Princes and those not for religion but for their treasons the number of the true Martyrs noted in print being in all by this account almost 300. and the number of their Seminary Priests Iesuites and Recusants by their own account not fully 200. which number and time considered is more then tenne for one Nor is there a greater disproportion in the number then in the causes of their sufferings the former suffering only for their conscience the latter for their treasons I am not ignorant that our aduersaries do taxe Mr. Fox of many vntruths and many strange matters whose errors if any such were I will not maintaine but somewhat excuse by way of recrimination by cyting out of this my popish Author some such stories of his Saints Miracles as I find in his sayd Martyrologe expressed which he hath diuided according to the moneths of the yeare leauing the truth and likely-hoode to thy censure ¶ Popish Miracles ANd first in the moneth of Ianuary I find this storie that when Saint Chad Bishop of Litchfield dyed his brother Ceds soule who was before Bishop of London was seene to descend from heauen with a troupe of Angels to accompany the same to heauen Another ST Egwine Bishop of Worcester made a payre of Iron shackles locked them close about his legges then cast the keyes therof into the Riuer of Seuerne and so went to Rome with Offa King of Mercia desiring of God that the said shackles might not be loosed from his legges vntill he had made satisfaction for all the sinnes of his youthfull yeares and in his returne backe as he came ouer the sea vpō a soden a fish leaped into the Ship wherein he sayled which being taken and killed the foresayd keyes of the shackles that hee had throwne into the Riuer were found in the fishes belly which hee applying to his shackles forthwith vnlocked them Another IN North-wales the commemoration of S.

Wenefrides Father who gaue him a part of his lands and possessions to build a Monasterie as also his Daughter Wenefride to be instructed and brought vp in a religious manner whose head being soone after cut off by Cradocus sonne to Alane King of the same Country for not yeilding to his vnlawfull lust he miraculously set on againe shee liuing fifteene yeares after Another ST Elfled virgin and afterward Abbesse it happened vnto her that before shee was chosen Abbesse shee being in the Church at Mattins before day with the rest of her sisters going into the middest according to the custome to reade a lesson the candle wherewith shee sawe to read chanced to be put out and therevppon wanting light there came from the fingers of her right hand such an exceeding brightnesse vppon the suddaine that not onely her selfe but all the rest of the Quire might see to read by it also And hauing another time giuen much to relieue the poore whereby her chests were emptyed being therefore for her lauishnes checked by the Procurator of the house she made moane to the Lord and her Chests were againe myraculously filled as before Another ST Wereburge she vpon her death bed commanded her body to be buried at Hamburge but contrary to her will it was carried to the monastery of Trickingham where the gates fast locked the same was kept and watched very carefully But see a woonder they that kept it fell into a sleepe so as the people of Hamburge comming in the night to fetch the bodie away the gates of the Church and Monasterie were opened without hands of themselues and so they carryed the bodie and buried it at Hamburge as before she requested Another ST Patrick he obtained by his Prayers that no venomous creature should liue or breed in Ireland Another ST Richard Bishop of Chichester he dyed at Douer in Kent his body being brought to Chichester so shined with Miracles that besides others he raysed vp three dead men againe to life Another ST Frithstan one euening as hee was saying Masse as he walked in the Churchyard when he came to the words Requiescant in pace the voyces in the graues round about made answere aloud and said Amen Another ST Pyran he sustained tenne Armies of men for eight daies with the flesh of three Kine and also raysed diuers dead men to life Another ST Sewell he for his integritie and innocency of life was such and so acceptable to God that it pleased his diuine Maiestie in signe thereof to worke miracles by him both aliue and dead and among others it is recorded that lying on his death-bed he turned water into wine by onely blessing it Another KIng Henrie the sixt his veluet Hat which he vsed to weare being put on mens heads that were troubled with the head-ache they were presently cured Another ONe of the souldiers that led S. Alban to his death repented when he saw the constancy of the Martyr asked him forgiuenes which the persecutors beholding they grieuously tormented him for the same but he following S. Alban to his death when S. Albans head was cut off he tooke it vp and embraced it in his armes and thereby was immediatly cured of all his wounds Another ST Swithine he when by a mischance a woman had broken all her egges made the signe of the crosse ouer the same egges and immediatlie they all became whole againe Another THe heads of Wiaman Vnaman and Sunaman being cut off and cast into a poole by the enemies of Christ S. Sigfride on a time walking by the poole and deploring their deaths on a suddaine there appeared three miraculous lights vppon the water which encompassed the vessell wherein their sayd heads were which he seing presently leaped into the poole and embracing them wept and sayd Vindicet Deus Whereto one answered Vindicatūerit another replyed in quem the third added in filios filiorum Another A Monke of a certaine Monastery whereof S.

as doth that of yours by euident proofes elswere convinced do allow of any such doctrine and enterprises This Powder-plot-treason was in it selfe in the eyes of some of the actors therein so horride and detestable as that one of your owne Iesuites from an apprehension of the jmmane cruelty thereof not mooued with any commiseration of their miseries who were by their designes destinated to the rage thereof but proceeding from a trembling feare least it should be discouered could say to his fellow in profession and action That if it were discouered it would be the vtter ruine and dissolution of their Society Remember also Robert Winters dreame and the horror thereof how it terrified his very soule with the gastly appearance of some of his consorts And forget not the fearefull vengeance of God in suffering their faces to be so vgly disfigured with Gunpowder in Littletons house who had prepared a Destructiō for this whole kingdome with the same matter and Substance and then conclude that God is iust and therefore in his justice did punish their wickednesse with the inventions of their owne braines Was it not time to lop those ambitious aspyring thoughts of Watson the Priest and his confederates as also to clippe the winges of the Powder-Treason contriuers and their fauorites the first affecting in his owne person the high Chancelorship of England and the latter building their hopes aboue the Moone amongst themselues concluding to set vp a Protector of their own choosing out of the number of those Popish Lords that by them were intended should bee preserued from that generall destruction of their sulphurious fire all of them directlie ayming at the vtter ruine and destruction of this noble and renowned Iland and to make desolate the most glorious Kingdome that is couered by the Heauens But as the most fruitfull trees beare their tops lowest and the most barren and vnfruitfull shoote vp highest euen so is it amongst men Those that are most emptie of vertue and laudable qualities aspire in their ambition to places of highest honour vncalled whereas the more worthy and vertuous would in their humility refuse them being jmposed were it not onely for this that they may thereby be the better jnabled to do good Admit that the Kings Majestie had in a religious pollicy promised a toleration before he were fully seated in his kingdome or come into this Kingdome nay that hee had so also meant indeed as some of you haue falsely and jmpudently giuen out yet had he not for your extreame ill carriage and disloyall demeanour just cause to haue reuoked it For before that liberty could be established for you there must needes haue beene a repeale made of those Lawes and Statutes formerly made against Recusancy which as they were by act of Parliament confirmed so must they haue been by the like authority disanulled But your Watson and Clarke thought to make a shorter cut then so by preventing the King in the performance of that which Watson himselfe knew full well the King neuer purposed nor promised albeit it should seeme by Watsons owne confession that he had much laboured and jmportuned his Majestie therein Since which time also if his Majestie had promised the like as some of your faction haue falsely giuen out was not that matchlesse Powder-treason plotted contriued furthered and assisted by beasts for men I cannot call them but rather deuils of your religion both Priests Iesuites and as you stile your selues lay Catholiques a sufficient warrantise without prejudice to his honour to recall such a grant as might giue protection to Caterpillers Degenerate persons Miscreants Vipers Monsters and not men and whatsoeuer name more odious that also yea vnworthy to bee called by the name of any of Gods creatures for they persist in their created natures but the other do not but are degenerated from men to Devils That their damnable practise doth rightly moralize the tale of the Husbandman wherein hee is fabled to haue found a Snake stiffe and almost dead with cold and to haue brought him home in his bosome and warmed him by the fire which after recouering began to hisse at the good man of the house for his paines and would with his venomous tongue haue stung him to death who had before saued his life which plainely bids King Iames beware that he nourish not vipers in his own Kingdome I pray God not in his Court. You seeme in some places of your writings to taxe Queene Elizabeth and in her all true professors of religion for a backward and frozen zeale towards the Kings Majesties rightfull succession in these his kingdomes to blazō your own forwardnesse in his Majesties behalfe but know you false-hearted and degenerate men that king Iames knowes how to judge of spirits and to hold you but hollow-hearted vnto him now because whiles you were yet Queene Elizabeths subiects you were then so vnto her and to esteeme of our late Queene Honourably and of vs as faithfull Subiects then vnto her so now no lesse vnto him And albeit that for some reasons of State vnto her selfe best knowen and which no doubt but his Majestie now very well vnderstandeth it pleased her to conceale the kings right from the multitude yet I verily perswade my selfe that his Majesty did neuer so much as conceiue a thought that Queene Elizabeth did euer purpose or intend to debarre him in his right of lawfull succession And in this poynt your fellow Catholiques thought to cast a Bone between his Majesty and his good subiects but you are made to swallow it your selues and some whose throats were to little it choaked Nor may I here let passe vntouched that Propheticall speech of that worthy Matriarke Honourable amongst women Q. Elizabeth who when in the first yere of her raigne shee was motioned to dispose her selfe to Marriage that her subiects might enioy an happy issue of her own body like as Abraham when his Sonne Isaac sayd Behold the fire and the wood but where is the Lambe for the burnt offring Gen. 22.7 replyed Deus providebit mi fili So shee Abrahams daughter by fayth likewise Fideles mei subditi my louing and faithfull Subiects although you may justly fear what may be the euent of my disposednes to a Virgin life yet be not depressed with care that way nor dejected with sorrow but trust in God for Deus providebit hee euen God euen that God who made Sarahs barren wombe fruitfull and he who although I should marrie can cause my wombe to be barren He who had another meat to eat that his Disciples knew not of Ioh. 4.32 Euen he I say will provide you a king of his owne choosing whome you do not so much as dreame of My Fathers Will must bee done Ioh. 4.34 I the Lord will bee their God and my seruant David shall be the Prince amongst them I the Lord haue spoken it Ezech. 34.24 Which that your eyes haue after
