The Triumph stain'd Being an ANSWER to TRVTHS TRIVMPH i. e. a Pamphlet so called and lately set forth By Mr. John Wildman a pretended Gentleman of the Life-guard to his Excellency Sir Tho Fairfax WITH A full and perfect Account of an INFORMATION OF Dangerous and bloody consequence given in to the House of Lords at their Bar January the 18. 1647. against Lieut. Col. Iohn Lilburn and John Wildman By George Masterson Preacher of the Gospel at Shoreditch near London 1 COR. 4.5 Therefore judge nothing before the time until the Lord come who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts and then shall every man have praise of God London Printed by JOHN FIELD 1647. The Triumph stain'd TRuth is an high born Princess she is eldest daughter of Heaven of blood with the Son of God made man the natural beauty that she wears shewes of what house she comes the bright rays that shine in her face lead captive every soul that hath eyes to behold her There are very few sons of utter darkness that resist Truth as Truth or lift up the heel against her for her own sake Such is the majesty of Truth that every knee bows down to her apprehended Chair of State such is her birth and beauty and credit that every man desires to have her image and superscription stamped upon his opinion and practise and thus it comes to pass more then sometimes that the Painters mistress is adored instead of the Goddess and as many times it is seen that Columns and Statues erected to Truth do hold forth nothing more then the great names of men that reared them in golden letters D. VAE VERITATI D. D.C. Q.A.B. Thus in the Jousts and Tiltings dedicated to the honor of Truth the splinters of a broken lance contribute more to the credit of the Champions prowess then the honor of the Lady And thus in the Triumphs of Truth so called we see a man like unto our selves in all things drawn in a Triumphant Chariot It was but the other day that I beheld a mortal man as if he had found the Breast plate of Aaron hurried in a Triumphant paper Chariot about the Royal Exchange The Chariot was dedicated to the Suns daughter To fair Truth and it carried this mark in the forehead of it Truths Triumph I honor the Virgin so far that I cannot but send this cordial Exclamation after her Chariot Vivat Regina long live fair Truth Yea though her furious Charioter should drive his wheels over all that I have Sensual and Mortal the last breathing of my soul should contribute to her Triumph a vivat illa Ride on fair Truth the wheels are slow On which thy Chariot moves below Go mount thy Fathers Car and mix Thy purer rays with his there fix Till thou thy course in light hast run Circling the world as doth the Sun Thus by her Father bright Sol's side Let mighty Truth Triumphant ride But truly when the heat of the wheels is a little over and Truth comes to cast up her account what she hath gained or saved in the Gentlemans intended Triumph I believe she will tel her Friends with tears in her eyes that she never blushed more in any day of Triumph never did she ride so hooded and masked in a Triumphant Chariot before that day You O my friends that have seen my riding will she say in the days of my true Triumphs my Chariot open my face and breast and hands naked my feet and legs and thighs bare did not you wonder at such a winter dress as I appeared in that day did not you admire to see me in my furs and saples Truly I thought however the Gentlemans intentions were for a Triumph that I scarce stood above the proportion of one doing penance in his sheets But Gentlemen if you will not go to the price of it as Truths Triumph you shall have it rather then stand out at the lower rate of Treachery Anatomized and thus if it do not make a good God yet it may pass for a pretty tolerable Devil Truths Triumph or Treachery Anatomized See Gentlemen what a Triumph of Truth you are like to have when she comes mounted upon an Anatomy I have scarce seen a private Soldier bestride such bare bones The meanest Error that beats upon the hoof triumphs in a better equipage then this Gentlemans Truth does And truly not onely her palfrey the forementioned lean thing but her clothes too such a riding suit would induce us to judge and believe That the Gentlemans Truth were rather taking a long Winter journey then setting forth in triumph And let me tell the Citizens of this Renowned City That if this Skeleton be allowed to pass for a Triumph every Countrey Carrier and all the dirt they bring along with them will from the date of this ride triumphantly through your City I wonder in the lap of what remote Star this Triumph was concealed that our English Merlin gave us no intelligence of it that we might have been prepared to entertain it at a rate suitable to it This Triumph as we may with no great difficulty collect from pag. 10. sets forth from the Fleet and so you must suppose it is a Naval Triumph it hath indeed its waste clothes on and it wants nothing but Pendants and Streamers nor would it have wanted them had the Design shattered the Lords House The Legislative Power ravished out of the hands of the Lords would have been a fine gay indeed to have adorned Truths Triumph But the Gentleman had consulted better for the credit of his Truth had he dated his Triumph from Sea 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Yet whatever is pretended let me tell you That this Triumph sets out at Billinsgate or from what Fleet soever it comes it lands at those Stairs and you will tell me so too when you hear the Rhetorick and Dialect of that end of the Town A blast of right Billinsgate in stead of Trumpets ushers in the Triumph A Discovery we shall meet with impartial anon of the false and treacherous Information of Mr. Masterson pretended Minister of Christ at Shoreditch against c. The truth or falshood of the Information the day shall declare and shall make it manifest whether it be gold or wood silver or hay precious stones or stubble and I am extremely confident that the blemished Information is of such a kinde as will endure the touch of the fire In the mean time before the day of revelation by fire cometh I shall endeavor to make it appear to all rational men of what sort the forementioned Information is Not treacherous as the Gentlemans Triumph or Anatomy affirms nor made by a pretended Minister of Christ at Shoreditch Treachery I mean that which is really so is in every sence the abomination of my soul and though the odium of Persecuter of the Saints and Betrayer of the Brethren hath been cast
