Papists meet They do most lovingly each other greet If such a course mongst us were wisely taken The Sword of Warre should be no longer shaken Against our Peace Our King should Papists find As Protestants in France to bear like mind Then Protestants and Papists surely would Our King and Kingdoms Peace alike uphold And those that did attempt this way to trie They did not deal therein unfaithfully Shall I for this a Papist judged be And one that would uphold Romes Popery 'Twixt Roman Church and Poperies rule therein I know not but a difference may be seen Romes Church had once no Vniversall Power But was in Faith and Truth a Church like our Romes being of a Church not quite distruct Rome still a true Church is though much corrupt From Rome as shee 's a Church we do not sever But where she is corrupt in that we leave her The Scripture hath to us this truth revealed We Babilon would heal she 'd not be healed Come out of her Corruptions then with haste Lest staying in them we her judgements taste Romes Church that was we must thereof allow We onely shunne those vile corruptions now Which are in Rome and do that Church deface We dare not for our Souls such stuffe embrace With Papists yet in outward things we may Hold such a Peace as doth not Truth gainsay This Truth Saint Paul doth by his Doctrine reach And so indeed doth his example preach To Jewes a Jew to Greeks a Grecian Paul Would shew himself becoming all to all That he might by his sacred Ministry Gain some to Christ And why then may not I In imitation of so holy a Saint My self with those of Roman stamp acquaint When Paul himself doth thus the Church advise Have Peace with all as much as in you lies This may be done Faith kept uprightly sound For we our Faith upon Gods word do ground The sacred certain grounds of our Salvation Our Church will hold without an alteration Those Fundamentals are and must be kept Romes newer Creed by us to Rome is left But to disturb the Peace of God and King For what is but a Circumstantiall thing A Ceremony we in sober sadnesse Do utterly abhorre such factious madnesse Who for such things themselves in Faction sute A Bride-well School may best with them dispute And still the better honest minds to stay And drive from them all jealous fears away Let no man fear in Christian world to see The Papall Monarchy advanc'd to be Free Kings and Princes now so wise are grown As under Christ they know to hold their own And not admit Romes Papall Jurisdiction Which to the world hath wrought such great affliction Shall it again a work of praise be counted To mount up him by whom themselves dismounted Have been so shamefully Kings will nor be The Stirrop-holders to Romes Papacy The Pope His Asse the Emperour shall be No more brought on the stage to make up three Romes Triple-Crowned Prince shall at no rate With what is theirs nor they with his estate Once meddle He his Oare shall never thrust Into anothers boat for that 's unjust And so will prove when Judgement once comes thither When He and Rome in flames shall burn together Christ's Church to have an Vniversall Head Besides himself must not be seen nor said Pope Gregory the Great shot not beside The mark who call'd it Antichristian pride Deer Protestants then let your hopes not quaile For of great power is truth and will prevaile All Protestants in truth who tightly are Let them the Peace of God and King preferre Gods Spirit which into all Truth doth lead In Scripture for the Churches Peace doth plead And doth beseech to mark with diligence The causers of all Schism and difference And to avoid them For indeed such are The causers raisers of Rebellious Warre I would to God each Brownist Seperatist Each Anabaptist and each Familist The brats of strife and workers of Division Whose Tenets Sound Divines have in Derision Were either banish't out of Englands ground Or here to punish them some course were found Laws ready made if executed well Have Force enough their Factions to refell These have a new Division made most strange Which hath in Subjects wrought a dangerous change The Person of the King they set a side And to the Laws His Royall Power divide A strange Division whereby Subjects may Rebell against their King yet Laws obey When as the Laws do in the King subsist His Royall Person gives to them their list If Laws be none of his whose are they then The Laws of Subjects given to other men Who as themselves are Subjects and no more This is a strain of wit not known before A Constable with power is heard to say I charge you in the Kings name to obey His Laws then in his Person do subsist And those who them His Person do resist His Crown and Dignity and every thing Which doth adorn the Person of a King These are the Sophisters whose slye dispute Enwrapt the Kingdom in a Mourning Suâ—e Had five of them at first been put away It had been happy for us at this day Westminster builded was a Monument Of Regall State and power Magnificent Westminster now a Monument hath built Which staines her Glory with Rebellions guilt That Cloud dispers't a Sunne will shine upon her And her restore unto her Ancient Honour The Kings and Countreys Peace from her shall flow And make them both in glory up to grow That man or woman is too much to blame Whose heart and mind doth not desire the same If Protestants would all in one agree That true Religion might upholden be And as dâ—er Children of our holy Mother The Church of Christ in England love each other And keep the truth of Faith with full consent Submitting to our Churches Government We then might Peace enjoy and every one Be both true Christian and good Subject known And let not Fools though they Divisions see Think that mongst us no Church of Christ can be The Spouse though black yet like the tents of Keder She comely is and on the mounts of Bether * Her glorious Husband Iesus Christ is found As Roe or Hart about that Hilly ground In Christ his Church offences will fall out But woe to those by whom they 'r brought about know Christ knows his own they him their Shep heard This Church of Christ no power can overthrow In England Christ hath his beloved choice And those are they who hearken to his voice And follow him unto their last of breath And hee 'l prâ—serve them both in life and death His Church as Tirzah doth appear in sight Most beautifull her glory shining bright And as an Army terrible is shee With Banners spread Her foes will fear to see The Majesty of Her well ordered form Which threatneth them with a most fearfull storm The Captain of Iehovahs Host doth lead The Battell

bring in Popery When they but thought in one conformity To state the Church her Peace to dignifie If Bishops all the self same thing had minded It had been well as now too late we find it Next to the Faith the Churches Peace to keep Which broken now makes thousand eyes to weep Faiths Doctrine when 't is kept uprightly sound Should outward Form the Churches Peace confound Our God you know the God of Order is Each Christian King had always power in this In his own Kingdom to determin so As all the Church might in one Order go In outward Form of Church-like Government * To which because our King his purpose bent Must your Rebellious Tongues with one Consent Say that it was his Majesties intent Again for sooth to bring in Popery In plain Terms truth to speak Rebels ye lye a Though Roman Bishops now are found to swerve From Rule of Truth must Bishops all deserve To be accompted Popes What have they don Since Reformation in our Church begun b King Edward and His Bishops they drove out Romes Popery and with resolution stout Withstood proud Râ—mes usurpt Supremaâ—iâ— And did our Churches evills remedy Our Queen Eliza with the full consent Of Englands then most happy Parliament Where all her Reverend Bishops joyntly met For they in Parliament have alwayes set King Edwards Laws confirmed and did scorn By Papall power to be overborn King Iames with his grave Bishops did comply To write 'gainst Rome and that most learnedly And in despight of Rome and Romes disdain Our Englands Church did in her Peace maintain And would not suffer any factious brain The honour of her setled Peace to stain And our King Charles and all his Bishops they Do hold their course even in the self same way Our good King and his Bishops now condemned Should rather for their care be much commended Old Rome at first with pious Bishops fil'd Our now-Religion was by them upheld Their Bishops all for first six hundred years As ours now are they were as it appears When Bishop Iewel's Challenge could not gain One Romish Bishop able to maintain Romes now-Religion in those points we fall Away from that which we do Popery call Why are our Bishops then so much despized No new Religion is by them devised The old Religion is by them revived Who never yet so vilâ—â— thing contrived As you haue done when for Religions saâ—e You do most vile Rebellion lawfull make Of Bishops Protestants I know this thing None ever prov'd a Traitor to his King Let Brownists then our Bishops let alone And know themselves for Rebels every one For what though some defects there might be found In some of them Yet firmly stands this ground A personall defect ne're takes away The Lawfulnesse of Place but still that may Be kept For this the Rule hath alwayes bin Uphold the place but take away the sin But now the place must quite unlawfull be When some defects we do in persons see Way given to this what Place can firmly stand Behold what course the Factious take in hand But which is strange as Bishops they defie So they against our Churches Prayers do crie And say the Church of Christ is much abus'd When those good Prayers of our Church are us'd The Church to give set forms of Prayer Now fic Where 's then the Spirit which immediately Inspires the Church and all her Ministry To pray to God and that effectually Know Moses did set forms of Prayer prescribe To Israels people even to every Tribe Which should be us'd when they in hand did take Their â—ourney with Gods Holy Arke to make Both at the taking up when they began Their daily March and when at even they came Unto their Resting Place Like holy forme By those by whom the Glorious Arke was born Was us'd in Prayer These Formâ—Moses gave Unto the Church Doth he deserve to have It said Fie on Him for his doing so What God allows who dare to it say no Gods word a form of blessing doth expresse And wills his Church in blessing so to blesse Then fie on those who cannot now abâ—de Set forms of Prayer but do them deride Know holy David Songs of Prayer and Praise Did form and penne that thereby he might raise The hearts of all Gods People up on high To pray unto and praise the Majesty Of our great God with Prayers and Praises fit Which might in them an holy zeal beget And then those Psalms unto the Church he sent Which there unto our God he did present Was then think you the Church of God abus'd By them by whom those holy forms were vs'd Our holy Common-Prayer-book first pen'd By those who did for Christ their blood expend Should not I think be as it is depraved By wilfull Fools who will a Masse-book have it Those that compiled it Romes Masse did hate And Englands Church in true Religion state Those then by whom that Book is now refused By them God and his Church is most abused And yet at this we need not wonder much For why their pride and arrogance is such As even that Prayer which Christ himself did make They most blasphemously in scorn do take When Barrow stood at Tyburn in a Cart Under the Gallows praying in his heart The lookers on to him did humbly say In the Lords â—rayer Sir let 's hear you pray He shal't his head and did refuse to do it And so was hang'd Their pride may bring them to it But yet there do some other things remain Which they accompt do so Religion stain As those to use they highly do disdain And would all others should with them refrain To touch such trash or neer them once to come As being Reliques of the Church of Rome In outward things who do Religion place To true Religion do a foule disgrace But what things are they that their Conscience scare O Monstrous things Such as most fearfull are I 'le shew you them and so you 'l cleerly see What terrible and fearfull things they be Our harmlesse Ceremonies do them fright Our Gesture Habit each of them a Spright And scares them Now by this you may descrie The strangenesse of their fearfull foolerie Should things indifferent Divisions make When Truth commandeth that for Christ his sake To every Ordinance of man not bent Against the Faith we be obedient The Conscience should be rul'd by Rule of faith And what I say I 'me sure the Scripture saith But factious Fools to give themselves content Have worse then Roman Souldiers basely rent The unscam'd Coat of Christ in pieces and To justifie their work in Arms they stand So that our Brown with Brownists now consents Even to dispute with cutting Arguments Browne no lesse fearfull seemes thy Cocks-comb head Then Lion Rampant in Cake Ginger bread But stay my Muse thy mark thou tak'st amisse For Browne will say that
Foy you ran away Like to a brave and Noble Generall And left your men to th' worst might them befall O my good Lord full time enough you had And might a way unto your Peace have made Not by your running from but running to Your good King Charles and something so to do As might befit a Subject low submission And so have made your Peace on good Condition But neither God nor your good King could move you To do so as your God and King might love you But out you runne in your mis-leading way And so you do in your Rebellion stay What is 't my Lord you and your Armies crave Would you our good King Charles your Prisoner have Now God forbid Two Kings * so once were kept And both of life and Kingdoms were bereft To King and Kingdoms woe when Subjects shall Upon their King in terms imperious fall Sir if you will not with our will complye We will thereto enforce your Majesty Your words have sounded to the like effect And thereof do your deeds your selves detect We then must grant Our Soveraign justly stands Upon his Guard to keep out of your hands His Royall Person What! must Kings submit Unto their Subjects Can we think it fit That Subjects should their Soveraign's Judges be Out fall their eyes that this desire to see There is a Court where Christ the Judge doth sit Before whose judgement-Seat we all must meet T is he that sayes By me Kings rule and Reign T is He will then the Right of Kings maintain Gainst those he will his powerfull Justice arm Who His Annointed Touch and Prophets harm Good David did confesse he sinn'd that day When he the lap of Sauls Coaâ— cut away Is 't not a greater sinne when Subjects take All things from their good King and Shipwrack make Of all belonging to his Royall State And so their King and Kingdom ruinate Before the Lord our God of Kings the King When Subjects come to answer such a thing Unto what help can they themselves betake But to repent and restitution make It 's long before that Judge will come some say Judge Conscience know his Cour keeps every day If Conscience thee condemne thou ought'st to know Heavens Judge is greater giving Judgements blow The rule by which he judgeth is his Word This doth a most un-erring Truth afford If by this blessed Rule thou wilt be led By it not me be thou thus counselled My Noble Lord Your Royall King behold And then your self in Faiths obedience fold Ask but his Pardon 't is a Noble thing A Noble Subject yeelds unto his King And such a King whose mercy doth transcend The faults wherein his subjects can offend Then love your King His Pardon once obtain'd The love of God and King you then have gain'd So shall you then a Noble Subject be And all good Subjects will rejoyce to see When to your King you reconciled are And seek for Peace and stop the course of warre This is the thing for which we humbly pray And will rejoyce to see that happy day Then Noble Peer thy fellow-Peers perswade That Peace 'twixt King and People may be made So shall we all most heartily rejoyce

sensible of woe Mourns to behold the Ruine that is brought Upon her self by her own Children wrought And here at thee I wonder more the rather Because the Sâ—nne of such a Noble Father That Noble Root whence thou a Branch art grown Was to his King a faithfull Subject known For Fourty yeers I all his wayes observ'd And for my part I never found he swerv'd From Rules of Justice but did think that he Might wash his hands as from Corruption free What others have laid to his charge of late For me to question now 't is out of date Because hee 's gone away to his last home And long before this time hath known his doom The time was when a Parliament could do it Which question 's greatest men and makes them rue it When guilty found That Court doth over awe The greatest Peers that sinne against the Lawe And calls them to account Thus Subjects all Unto that High Court's Censure stand or fall Their power reacheth over every Soul Except the King Hee 's free from their controul For they but Subjects are He is their King And must obeyed be in every thing If not in active yet in passive wayes This ever was the Christian Subjects praise Who rather would his deâ—rest blood expend By suffering then

call'd That have 〈◊〉 so dangerouâ—â—y â—enthrali'd These and thâ—â— followers full of zeal Igrant But all true â—nowledge and discretion want And hence it is they in their zeal desire To set and see the Kingdom all on fire Yet some thing else Rebellion goes about Which is to root our Kingdoms Honour out The many headed Beast sole Rule would have Our Honour then lies buried in that Grave A Noble people once the English were And did aloft their Honour Nobly beare And shall we now dishonourably choose New shame to get and Antient Honour loose From best to worst from Monarchy to fall To Oligarchy bafest Rule of all Brave Noble mindes in England Nobly bred O're us to Rule Let not that Hydra's head King Charles advance to 's Honours him restore And state this Kingdom as it was before With this let all most wisely be content And strive no more for change of Government Their seeking so the thing for which they sought Hath a most miserable ruine brought Upon this Land The Kingdom rent and torn Is like a City ruin'd and forlorn Those things which did her Glory best adorn Rebellion spoiles and makes of them a scorn Those two most famous Vniversities Fair Englands Beauty and her Starre-bright eyes From whence there did such glorious Lights arise As that the splendour of their glorious shine Did spread it self through every Zone and Clime In all the world Is 't not a wonderous sight To see as now that Sunne-like shining light To be Eclips't whose once most heavenly rayes Was honoured with such deserved praise Those goodly Halls and Stately Colledges The Seed-plots of the liberall Sciences The fountain-heads of every pleasant spring About whose Banks did all the Muses sing Where Schollers liv'd and some so wondrous rare As might for learning with the world compare From whence was wont into the Church to flow Those blessed means which made her glory grow And bring forth fruit of greatest dignity A Reverend Grave and Learned Ministry Who being Orthodox with Spirit bold The Truth 'gainst Romes false Doctrines did uphold But now our Church whoso but looks upon her Shall see her rob'd of all her pristine Honour And Schollers are enforc't to lay aside Their learned Books and for themselves provide As Souldiers furnished in compleat Arms To shield themselves from present threatned harms And save their lives and all their Colledge-Lands Out of the reach of Rebels spoyling hands No Heathens yet would once dare to deface Their Idol-Gods nor to the ground to raze Their Pagan Temples But we now farre worse Then they have rob'd our God and brought a curse Upon us all which may cradicate Our Kingdoms Glory and so leave her state As wholly ruin'd waste and desolate And this to do Rebell on doth not stay But runneth on even in the ready way For next the Church what did our Kingdom grace They seek to spoile and utterly deface The Innes of Chanâ—â—ry and Innes of Court Where Englands Gentry used to resort And study there that they might wisely learn All points of Law with Judgement to discern Those Houses where the Ancients ruled so As all did in a comely order go And able were a King to entertain With Honours due unto his Royall train These all our Honour greatly did augment They did in them a kind of state present Which did the glory of our Land advance Now spoyled by Obnoxious Ignorance Laws Divine Humane Civill Common all Are troden down by force Tyrannicall T is then high time we should our sinnes repent For they are cause of all our punnishment But now because a present bloody broyle The Peace of England doth destroy and spoile What may be done a Peace for to restore To King and Kingdom nothing wisht for more Why This to do I nothing will invent But what I learn by actuall president Romes self it seemes doth now desire a Peace And that all Warres in Christian world may cease Since Gregory the first Surnam'd the Great Vrban the 8th who sate in Romes high seat Of all their Bishops was the very best His like was never found among the rest And this I think of him that suâ—e he would Have been a Protestant if that he could He doubtlesse lov'd a Protestant in 's heart And would not 'gainst them take the Papists part In Germane Warres he nothing would decree On either part but wish't they might agree For whil'st they striv'd each other to confound No Peace could grow out of so bad a ground Experience taught Romes Church this Truth to know When as their Priests did seeds of Treason sow And thereby spoil'd the Protestant Estate And did Reformed Churches ruinate The Plots whereby they kept so great a coyle Themselves thereby at last did chiefly spoile A Peacefull way Romes Bishop then intended Which was of all the best to be commended In outward form the Papists well may stand With Protestants affording friendships hand Each unto other That French Cardinall Who sought a Peace most wisely to enstall In that French Kingdoms Royall Government About that work he with such wisdom went As that by him the Protestants protected Their Faiths Allegiance never was suspected For they themselves did as good Subjects bear Unto their King He had no cause to fear Them any whit at all For as was meet They ready were down at their Soveraigns Feet To lay their lives their Countreys Peace to gain For this they would themselves to th' utmost strain There now when Protestants and
