A80794	A learned and exceeding well-compiled vindication of liberty of religion: written by Junius Brutus in Latine, and translated into English by N.Y. who desires, as much as in him is, to do good unto all men: wherein these three following propositions are undenyably proved, and all objections to the contrary fully answered. 1. That if magistrates, in case of necessity, promise hereticks liberty of religion; they are bound to performe their promise after that necessity ceaseth. 2 That magistrates may with a safe conscience grant hereticks liberty of religion, and oblige themselves by an oath, or bond of assurance, to provide for their safety and security. 3. That magistrates ought to grant hereticks liberty of religion, and to oblige themselves by an oath, or bond of assurance, to provide for their safety and security.; Vindiciae pro religionis libertate. English.	Crell, Johann, 1590-1633.; N. Y. translator.	1646 (1646)	Wing C6879; Thomason E1178_4; ESTC R208101	37,701	85

clergy_n over_o the_o politic_a state_n the_o matter_n may_v easy_o be_v discern_v by_o the_o history_n of_o those_o time_n which_o be_v before_o the_o rise_n of_o heresy_n how_o easy_o may_v a_o

or_o action_n of_o clergyman_n be_v wrest_v to_o a_o contumely_n and_o reproach_n of_o religion_n itself_o especial_o when_o thou_o shall_v have_v both_o thy_o accuser_n and_o judge_n out_o of_o the_o same_o state_n and_o order_n of_o man_n may_v not_o even_o this_o very_a thing_n itself_o afford_v occasion_n to_o new_a motion_n and_o tumult_n but_o let_v other_o look_v to_o this_o we_o will_v in_o this_o place_n have_v that_o call_v to_o memory_n which_o we_o speak_v of_o in_o the_o former_a chapter_n that_o by_o deprive_v heretic_n of_o liberty_n in_o religion_n heresy_n be_v not_o only_o

thus_o much_o that_o by_o denial_n thereof_o atheism_n spring_v up_o in_o many_o man_n heart_n which_o be_v worse_o than_o any_o kind_n of_o heresy_n whatsoever_o for_o conscience_n be_v suppress_v and_o destroy_v in_o those_o man_n in_o who_o there_o be_v not_o so_o great_a honesty_n and_o so_o great_a virtue_n and_o power_n of_o conscience_n as_o there_o ought_v to_o be_v when_o they_o be_v trouble_v for_o religion_n and_o so_o hypocrisy_n and_o counterfeit_v of_o that_o religion_n unto_o which_o they_o be_v force_v be_v beget_v in_o they_o and_o so_o atheism_n and_o profaneness_n which_o have_v no_o savour_n at_o all_o of_o holiness_n and_o religion_n spring_v up_o but_o as_o for_o those_o man_n in_o who_o there_o be_v a_o great_a honesty_n and_o integrity_n of_o mind_n and_o a_o regard_n of_o conscience_n and_o a_o fear_n of_o god_n in_o those_o man_n the_o love_n of_o their_o religion_n be_v inflame_v and_o increase_v by_o persecution_n as_o a_o fire_n be_v by_o cast_a

but_o if_o thou_o say_v that_o a_o spanish_a inquisition_n be_v somewhere_o use_v yet_o heresy_n do_v not_o creep_v on_o far_a there_o i_o will_v have_v thou_o also_o to_o consider_v whether_o atheism_n do_v not_o creep_v into_o the_o place_n of_o heresy_n true_o not_o a_o few_o even_o of_o the_o catholic_n complain_v of_o that_o matter_n who_o be_v well_o acquaint_v with_o those_o country_n although_o beside_o many_o thousand_o be_v find_v to_o be_v in_o spain_n and_o portugal_n but_o a_o few_o year_n ago_o of_o those_o who_o either_o take_v unto_o themselves_o the_o name_n

experience_n itself_o do_v sufficient_o declare_v that_o in_o spain_n and_o portugal_n the_o jewish_a and_o saracenicall_a religion_n can_v not_o for_o some_o age_n be_v root_v out_o of_o man_n mind_n by_o bring_v in_o a_o inquisition_n but_o very_o although_o there_o be_v not_o so_o great_a inconvenience_n as_o i_o have_v record_v yet_o there_o will_v be_v other_o which_o ought_v to_o dissuade_v catholic_n from_o hold_v it_o fit_v for_o heretic_n to_o be_v punish_v for_o even_o that_o one_o thing_n ought_v to_o prevail_v with_o they_o which_o we_o speak_v of_o in_o the_o former_a chapter_n that_o the_o safety_n of_o the_o church_n and_o of_o religion_n do_v no_o way_n require_v that_o heretic_n be_v set_v upon_o by_o violence_n which_o also_o the_o catholic_n themselves_o sufficient_o

when_o he_o say_v the_o gate_n of_o hell_n shall_v not_o prevail_v against_o it_o neither_o true_o be_v it_o agreeable_a to_o reason_n that_o this_o stability_n and_o immovable_a constancy_n of_o

when_o that_o so_o godly_a a_o building_n be_v bring_v from_o its_o first_o foundation_n to_o full_a perfection_n the_o catholic_n themselves_o show_v another_o kind_n of_o supportance_n for_o it_o that_o spirit_n of_o truth_n which_o be_v always_o present_a with_o the_o church_n which_o always_o uphold_v it_o and_o preserve_v it_o safe_a from_o all_o ruin_n but_o shall_v we_o think_v that_o that_o spirit_n of_o truth_n which_o in_o former_a age_n erect_v the_o holy_a build_n of_o the_o church_n maugre_o all_o the_o opposition_n of_o satan_n and_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o bring_v it_o to_o such_o a_o greatness_n by_o impotent_a and_o unarmed_a man_n and_o defend_v it_o against_o arm_a error_n and_o impiety_n be_v become_v now_o adays_o so_o weak_a and_o feeble_a that_o he_o can_v no_o long_o maintain_v his_o own_o work_n without_o strength_n of_o arm_n and_o that_o he_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o that_o power_n to_o defend_v religion_n and_o the_o church_n which_o he_o before_o

that_o heretic_n be_v overwhelm_v by_o force_n why_o do_v the_o catholic_n hold_v it_o fit_a for_o they_o to_o be_v bear_v down_o with_o violence_n for_o who_o can_v think_v especial_o that_o be_v a_o christian_n that_o use_n be_v to_o be_v make_v of_o violence_n punishment_n and_o arm_n without_o necessity_n for_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o gentleness_n to_o spare_v where_o thou_o may_v

a_o easy_a matter_n to_o persuade_v they_o of_o the_o truth_n which_o be_v found_v upon_o solid_a argument_n moreover_o when_o heretic_n be_v so_o bear_v withal_o they_o have_v a_o time_n to_o

but_o if_o there_o be_v such_o who_o think_v they_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o be_v afraid_a lest_o they_o be_v pluck_v up_o by_o the_o tare_n because_o of_o their_o multitude_n and_o strength_n establish_v by_o the_o course_n of_o so_o many_o age_n wherewith_o they_o may_v overcome_v their_o adversary_n in_o religion_n they_o ought_v for_o that_o very_a thing_n to_o suspect_v themselves_o

in_o such_o a_o barren_a field_n for_o virtue_n and_o lest_o they_o may_v chance_v to_o stray_v from_o the_o narrow_a &_o straight_a path_n of_o salvation_n which_o few_o find_v ou●_n for_o thus_o
