declared That he never heard any of the Church of Rome speak a good word of it (S) In the printed Tryal p. 53. The truth is there is nothing to defend such a Master-piece of Villany but the Sword what the English Papists speak of it concerns not me to enquire but was not the rise of that Horrid Treason from the Breves of Pope Clement the 8th in which he required the Roman Catholiques not to admit any but a Catholique to the Crown Did not the same Pope by a Bull sent to the Superiors of the Regulars for bid them to make use of any thing revealed in confession to the benefit of the Secular Government and is it not at least highly probable that the said Bull had a particular respect to the Gun-powder Treason (T) See The Case put by Delrio the Jesuit Disqu Mag. c. I. sect 2. Did not Sir E. Digby call it the best Cause Was not Garnett's name inserted into the English Martyrology Was not one of the Conspirators made the Popes Paenitentiary and another a Confessor in St. Peters at Rome 2. He saith That the Plot was owned by the Traytors themselves at their death But did not Garnette and Tresham deny it with the most bitter Imprecations make the most solemn Protestations of their own Innocency and avow the Lawfulness of denying and forswearing any thing whereof they were guilty in case either the Judges be incompetent or the Proofs against them defective And 't is observable that Garnette never owned any thing which was laid to his Charge till as himself confessed the clearness and unexpectedness of the Proofs made him ashamed to persist any longer in his Denial (V) If. Casau●…ni Ep. ad Fr. Duraeum p. 117 118 120 121 122 c I have now done with the Court of Rome and its Adherents Of the Doctrines of the Church of Rome and General Councils I shall speak in the next Chapter by which it will appear whether the Instances of Popish Malice and Bloodiness are Justifiable by the Principles of the Roman Church and Religion CHAP. III. Doctrines and Principles of the Roman Church 1. The Doctrine of Deposing Princes This is the Doctrine of all the approved Writers of that Church Of their General Councils of their Publique Offices and Breviaries An Account of those persons who have appear'd against the Deposing Doctrine 2. The King-killing Doctrine It is a necessary consequent of the Deposing Doctrine The Roman Divines equivocate in this Question The Jesuites generally assert it divers of the Popes and the Canon Law approve of it 3. Of destroying mens Lives for Religion The true State of the Question The Church of Rome damns all Haeretiques All Protestants are Haeretiques in her account She enjoyns all Christians to endeavour the Extirpation of them All Bishops of her Communion sworn to destroy them The Laws of the Church deliver them up to the Secular Power to be put to death 4. Of absolving his Majesties Subjects from their Allegiance I come now to his Lordships Principles of Faith and Loyalty as they are called p. 44. But first he declares As to the damnable Doctrine of King-killing if he were of any Church whatsoever and found that to be its Principle he would leave it Doubtless saith our Author the thing which most weighed to my Lords Prejudice c. was a prepossest Opinion of wicked Principles supposed to be held and practised by my Lord as the matter of his Faith and Religion It is by many taken for granted the Papists hold it an Article of Faith that to depose and murder Kings to Massacre their Neighbours and destroy their native Country by Fire and Sword when the interest of their Religion requires it are Acts dispensable by the Pope and meritorious of Heaven Now what thing so wicked however slenderly proved will not easily be believed against men so principled My Lord therefore to clear himself and his Religion from this heavy and as the Papists say injurious Aspersion pretested and declared in the presence of God and their Lordships his hatred and detestation of such Principles That he acknowledged the King his lawful Soveraign and knew no Person or Authority on Earth could absolve him from his Allegiance From hence I shall take occasion to discourse on the following Heads 1. Concerning the Doctrine of Deposing Kings 2. Concerning the Moctrine of King-killing 3. Concerning the Massacring of their Neighbours and destroying their Native Country when the Interest of their Religion requires it 4. Concerning his Lordships acknowledging the King to be his Lawful Soveraign and that he knew no Person or Authority on Earth could absolve him from his Allegiance And here I shall fairly represent the Doctrines of the Roman Church and then leave all men to judge of the natural Tendency of them 1. I begin with the Doctrine of Deposing Kings Where I shall prove these three things 1. That it is the Doctrine of all the Approved Writers of the Roman Church 2. That it is the Doctrine of their General Councils and lawful Representatives of the Roman Church 3. That this Doctrine is taught in the Breviaries and publique Offices of the Church 1. That it is the Doctrine of all the Approved Writers of the Roman Church And here to do our Adversaries right I acknowledge that there are some things wherein they agree and some wherein they differ That Soveraign Princes may in some cases be deprived of their Crowns and Dignities is a Doctrine wherein their Divines are so universally agreed that I do not know any Book published according to the Order of the Roman Church which hath plainly and honestly condemned it But they are not agreed whether by vertue of a direct temporal Power over all at least Christian Princes the Pope may depose them at his pleasure or whether he hath only an indirect power whereby he may depose them when it is necessary for the good of the Church The former Doctrine is current at Rome and hath been avowed by many Popes and their Creatures The latter is Matter of Faith as many of their own Writers prove by as good Arguments and Authority as any man can produce for Transubstantiation it self (A) Of the former l. sacr Caeremon Aed Romae 1560. p. 36 col 1.
