English Seminarie at Rhemes Father Parsons in his Dolman a principall Rector in the Seminarie at Rome Seeing all these be Seminaries you may trie the young plants by their fruites If any desire further experience in this kinde he may consult with Carolus Malinaeus and Pontus Tyardaeus both Parisiens and but euen now before I can reade them to be read of all men The Confirmation It will not be denied of any Priest but that in these Popish Seminaries he hath vowed obedience to his generall Fathers in those Schooles And it is as notorious that all Generals are absolutely in●bralled to their chiefe generall the Pope all of them as hands and feete to walke and worke as that their head shall deuise Which as we haue heard in Gregorie the 7. Gregorie the 9. Pius Quintus and others haue absolued subiects from all obedience and charged them to take armes against their Emperors Kings and Queens excommunicate c. Shall wee now imagine the old foxes being such that their cubbes can degenerate If euer any of that kinde gaue hope vnto vs it was the Secular Priests who for a fit did write many things very truly against Iesuiticall rebellious practises but after perceiuing the Recusants to withdraw their beneuolence as rather deuoted to the Iesuites and that the Pope also took part against them they searing their consciences wholy submitted themselues vnto the Arch-priest whose command vpon occasion is countermanded by the faction Iesuiticall So that now we may aswell expect grapes from thornes or a white Aethiopian as loyall subiection from this Religion Thus haue I proued deare brethren the dogmaticall doctrines of these men not particularlie improuing or confuting them for this as I vnderstand was not your desire and therfore might not challenge of me such discharge especiallie seeing that they be in themselues so naturally vnnaturall that it may be concluded hereof Haec recitâsse refutâsse est So that according to the example of our blessed Sauiour onely relating the fact Doe c. without examination of the guilt we may pronounce Woe c. a condemnation against them in as much as all such sinnes haue a brand of impietie in their forehead whereby any may discerne them as the Apostle teacheth The workes of the flesh are manifest which are these Adulterie hatred contentions seditions murders and such like which whosoeuer doth cannot inherit the kingdome of God Being so condemnable in themselues in euery reasonable mans iudgement that it may be said of them Some mens sinnes goe before them to iudgement Notwithstanding if as among these Romish professors malefactors of all kindes vse to take sanctuarie so these mischiefes shall dare to challenge the name of sanctitie or Religion know dearely beloued that as S. Hierom saith this Dissembling of sanctitie doth double the iniquity and that I am as ready to consute all forged pretences as they can be to suggest them Only at this time be you exhorted my brethren to take this antidote and preseruatiue against all such poysonable positions and practises it is compounded but of two simples simplicitie of Apostolike precept practise of primitiue examples The blessed Apostle and true Peter farre differing from this personate doth thus admonish all Christians But let none of you suffer as a murtherer an euill doer or as a busie bodie in other mens matters but if any suffer as a Christian let him not be ashamed but glorifie God in this behalfe So then Christians suffering for murders may happily become martyrers but neuer be martyrs Secondly the Primitiue example is plainly recorded by Tertullian in his Apologie in behalfe of zealous Christians who being in his daies persecuted of Tyrants for the profession of the holie Faith yet auouched alwaies their faithfull allegeance after this tenour Our humble prayers to God in the behalfe of all Emperours are that he would vouchsafe them long life secure reigne safe guard powerfull armies faithfull Counsellors godly people and a peaceable world And to remoue all ielousies of Princes though Apostates from Christ holy Nazianzen is bold in defence of Christian loyaltie to stand at defiance as it were against all calumnious accusations saying Against whom of you did we at any time make any insurrection among your people though of themselues prone to rebellion Or whose death did wee euer conspire Now in conclusion doe but consider the last I pray God euer the last treason and see whether it may not challenge the name of Legion seeing there is found in it so many murderous spirits intending and attempting in one blow so many execrable murders that none can say of this most infamous euill as the Prophet spoke of that most excellent good As we haue heard so haue we seene but contrariwise That which wee haue seene the like was neuer heard God of his great mercie fashion vs to true thankfulnes and them to repentance to disclaime the Guelphish faction and alwaies out of the confusion of their sinnes worke the conuersion of their soules establishing vs all that call vpon the name of Christ Iesus with his sanctifying spirit to the glorie of his sauing grace Whereunto Yours T.
