to_o the_o murderer_n awake_v therefore_o o._n protestant_n and_o english_a man_n out_o of_o your_o deep_a and_o dangerous_a security_n and_o stand_v upon_o your_o foot_n like_o man_n you_o dead_a man_n live_v again_o and_o i_o will_v humble_o and_o faithful_o advise_v you_o as_o i_o be_o able_a out_o of_o very_a love_n in_o a_o few_o thing_n 1._o my_o first_o advice_n be_v that_o you_o believe_v none_o of_o their_o pretend_a fairness_n and_o kindness_n to_o you_o see_v their_o heart_n be_v whole_o against_o you_o and_o their_o hatred_n to_o you_o be_v immortal_a even_o the_o hatred_n of_o the_o devil_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o man_n which_o be_v a_o certain_a fire_n of_o hell_n which_o go_v not_o out_o by_o day_n or_o by_o night_n but_o know_v for_o certain_a when_o they_o promise_v fair_a they_o be_v not_o to_o perform_v any_o thing_n but_o the_o quite_o contrary_a when_o they_o seem_v to_o kiss_v you_o they_o intend_v to_o kill_v you_o when_o they_o suffer_v you_o to_o be_v quite_o it_o be_v that_o they_o may_v bring_v the_o great_a trouble_n upon_o you_o when_o they_o retreat_n from_o the_o exercise_n of_o their_o fierceness_n it_o be_v that_o they_o return_v upon_o you_o with_o the_o great_a fury_n when_o you_o shall_v less_o think_v of_o it_o for_o their_o whole_a trade_n be_v deceit_n and_o violence_n though_o satan_n transform_v himself_o into_o a_o angel_n of_o light_n yet_o still_o be_v he_o be_v the_o prince_n of_o darkness_n and_o these_o his_o follower_n be_v exact_o like_o he_o both_o to_o deceive_v and_o to_o destroy_v they_o will_v change_v their_o colour_n like_o proteus_n to_o deceive_v you_o but_o they_o will_v never_o change_v their_o cruel_a mind_n but_o they_o that_o will_v be_v deceive_v let_v they_o be_v deceive_v 2._o my_o second_o advice_n be_v that_o none_o either_o plot_n or_o attempt_v any_o thing_n against_o the_o present_a power_n but_o that_o all_o stand_v still_o in_o their_o place_n and_o call_v like_o wiseman_n with_o their_o eye_n in_o their_o head_n quiet_o wait_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o god_n for_o no_o man_n hand_n can_v help_v he_o in_o this_o matter_n but_o our_o strength_n be_v to_o sit_v still_o we_o can_v no_o more_o change_v kingdom_n and_o government_n in_o the_o world_n than_o we_o can_v alter_v the_o course_n of_o the_o sun_n or_o moon_n in_o the_o heaven_n but_o it_o be_v the_o great_a god_n that_o must_v do_v these_o great_a thing_n it_o be_v the_o most_o high_a god_n that_o reign_v in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o man_n and_o give_v they_o to_o whosoever_o he_o will_n and_o when_o his_o time_n be_v come_v the_o set_n and_o full_a time_n and_o the_o most_o high_a shall_v utter_v his_o voice_n his_o instrument_n shall_v be_v at_o his_o foot_n ready_a to_o do_v his_o work_n even_o to_o execute_v the_o vengeance_n write_v and_o all_o his_o mighty_a providence_n shall_v concur_v to_o bring_v about_o the_o council_n of_o his_o will._n wherefore_o remember_v that_o man_n rashness_n carry_v ruin_n in_o it_o but_o patience_n perfect_v both_o god_n work_n and_o mans._n in_o patience_n possess_v your_o soul_n wherefore_o all_o that_o we_o will_v do_v if_o we_o may_v be_v hear_v by_o those_o that_o be_v instruct_v to_o help_v at_o this_o needful_a time_n be_v only_o to_o desire_v for_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o the_o nation_n good_a and_o their_o own_o these_o three_o thing_n 1._o that_o the_o dear_a and_o precious_a gospel_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n may_v be_v permit_v public_o to_o be_v preach_v again_o in_o the_o purity_n and_o power_n of_o it_o and_o that_o the_o faithful_a teacher_n may_v be_v restore_v to_o their_o ministry_n throughout_o the_o whole_a nation_n for_o when_o jesus_n christ_n who_o have_v all_o power_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n give_v into_o his_o hand_n have_v command_v his_o minister_n to_o go_v and_o teach_v in_o all_o nation_n how_o can_v you_o worldly_a power_n who_o have_v but_o a_o little_a power_n in_o this_o nation_n answer_v it_o to_o he_o when_o you_o forbid_v that_o to_o be_v do_v which_o he_o have_v so_o solemn_o command_v he_o that_o have_v all_o power_n in_o heaven_n and_o earth_n have_v command_v his_o minister_n to_o teach_v his_o gospel_n and_o dare_v you_o who_o have_v but_o a_o little_a power_n on_o earth_n and_o none_o at_o all_o in_o heaven_n forbid_v they_o if_o you_o do_v not_o repent_v of_o and_o amend_v this_o our_o evil_n it_o have_v be_v better_a for_o you_o that_o you_o have_v never_o be_v bear_v 2._o our_o second_o desire_n be_v that_o all_o popish_a commander_n may_v be_v disband_v and_o put_v out_o of_o all_o office_n and_o trust_n in_o a_o protestant_a nation_n and_o that_o all_o papist_n through_o england_n may_v be_v disarm_v see_v they_o be_v not_o arm_v for_o we_o but_o against_o we_o 3._o that_o all_o french_a and_o outlandish_a man_n may_v be_v banish_v for_o they_o be_v but_o moth_n in_o our_o english_a garment_n to_o fret_v it_o by_o degree_n all_o to_o piece_n as_o they_o have_v fret_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o it_o already_o and_o what_o englishman_n or_o protestant_n be_v there_o that_o will_v not_o join_v with_o we_o in_o these_o necessary_a desire_n which_o if_o they_o be_v not_o grant_v farewell_o all_o good_a day_n from_o england_n for_o our_o time_n and_o now_o to_o conclude_v all_o i_o shall_v only_o leave_v two_o or_o three_o sovereign_a antidote_n with_o my_o dear_a countryman_n to_o preserve_v they_o from_o the_o noisome_a contagion_n and_o plague_n of_o popery_n 1._o consider_v with_o tremble_v that_o none_o be_v give_v up_o to_o this_o damnable_a delusion_n but_o those_o who_o name_n be_v not_o write_v in_o the_o lamb_n book_n of_o life_n as_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n affirm_v rev._n 13.8_o say_n and_o all_o that_o dwell_v upon_o earth_n shall_v worship_v he_o i.e._n the_o beast_n or_o antichrist_n of_o rome_n who_o name_n be_v not_o write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n of_o the_o lamb_n slay_v from_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o world_n and_o what_o person_n will_v carry_v such_o a_o worm_n in_o his_o conscience_n continual_o for_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o all_o the_o kingdom_n and_o glory_n of_o it_o as_o to_o know_v and_o certain_o to_o understand_v that_o his_o name_n be_v not_o write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n nor_o can_v ever_o be_v put_v in_o for_o all_o the_o write_n in_o that_o book_n be_v from_o eternity_n and_o no_o new_a thing_n can_v be_v insert_v in_o it_o and_o therefore_o let_v man_n say_v what_o they_o will_v they_o be_v none_o of_o god_n elect_n who_o close_o in_o with_o this_o false_a and_o heretical_a religion_n after_o the_o gospel_n have_v be_v preach_v to_o they_o and_o they_o have_v be_v instruct_v in_o it_o for_o to_o depart_v from_o the_o know_a truth_n to_o know_a error_n be_v not_o a_o sin_n of_o ignorance_n but_o of_o malice_n and_o this_o be_v the_o sin_n unto_o death_n for_o which_o there_o be_v no_o remission_n wherefore_o let_v every_o one_o that_o will_v attain_v to_o any_o comfortable_a assurance_n that_o his_o name_n be_v write_v in_o the_o book_n of_o life_n flee_v from_o popery_n 2._o they_o that_o apostatise_n to_o this_o false_a religion_n be_v as_o sure_o to_o be_v damn_a as_o if_o they_o be_v in_o hell_n already_o this_o be_v a_o hard_a say_n but_o a_o true_a one_o as_o it_o be_v evident_a in_o that_o of_o paul_n 2._o thess_n 2._o where_n speak_v of_o antichrist_n that_o wicked_a one_o who_o come_v be_v after_o the_o work_n of_o satan_n with_o all_o power_n and_o sign_n and_o lie_v wonder_n and_o with_o all_o deceiveableness_n of_o unrighteousness_n in_o they_o that_o perish_v because_o they_o receive_v not_o the_o love_n of_o the_o truth_n that_o they_o may_v be_v save_v he_o add_v and_o for_o this_o cause_n god_n shall_v send_v they_o strong_a delusion_n that_o they_o shall_v believe_v a_o lie_n that_o they_o all_o may_v be_v damn_a that_o believe_v not_o the_o truth_n but_o have_v pleasure_n in_o unrighteousness_n this_o sort_n of_o people_n god_n give_v they_o up_o to_o believe_v a_o lie_n the_o grand_a lie_n of_o popery_n for_o this_o whole_a religion_n be_v nothing_o else_o but_o one_o continue_a lie_n from_o the_o begin_n to_o the_o end_n of_o it_o to_o the_o intent_n that_o they_o shall_v all_o perish_v and_o be_v damn_a this_o be_v the_o word_n of_o god_n against_o all_o wilful_a papist_n and_o it_o can_v be_v make_v void_a john_n also_o testify_v rev._n 14.9_o that_o a_o angel_n proclaim_v with_o a_o loud_a voice_n say_v if_o any_o man_n worship_n the_o beast_n and_o his_o image_n and_o receive_v his_o mark_n in_o his_o forehead_n or_o in_o his_o hand_n the_o same_o shall_v drink_v of_o the_o wine_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n which_o be_v
