GREAT BRITTAINES RESVRrection Or the Parliaments passing Bell. BY VVAY OF PSALMODIE AGAINST the tryumphing of the Papists in their seuen Psalmes And in imitation of the song of the three Nobles of Israel deliuered out of the fierie Ouen of Babell By VVilliam Hubbard Chaplaine to the Kings Maiestie in his Highnes Tower of London Hos 14.10 Who is wise and he shall vnderstand these things and prudent and he shall know them for the waies of the Lord are righteous and the iust shall walk 〈◊〉 them but the wicked shall fall therein Seene and allowed AT LONDON Printed by T. C. for Arthur Iohnson and are to be sold at his shop in Pauls Churchyard at the signe of the white Horse 1606. To the right Worshipful Sir VVilliam VVaade Knight Lieutenant to his Maiestie in his Highnes Tower of London Grace and fauour with God and man be multiplied in Iesus Christ I H●●● made bold right Worshipfull to dedicate this Hymne and generall sacrifice of compunction and thanksgiuing to your name and memorie both as a tendering of my particular office to you and yours principally and because God hath made you so generall a man for the common good being so learned religious and habitually prudent from the chiefe schoole of high wisedome in our estate the bourd of his Maiesties most honourable priuie Counsell and a most sufficient seruant of King and Country in this place whereupon I begin to conceiue strong hope that the Lord hath sent you amongst vs not onely for these deare and present times of this new generation of gun powder men in this place in which your dexterity and seruice is apparant to all but to be valued of them who are able to giue it his due weight poise without diminishing any graine of such a mineral better then gold but for establishing also the Church and gouernment here vnto posterity which hath beene the sinne of omission in many before you and now needeth some Zerubabel or Nehemia a restorer after so many exigents as it hath beene driuen vnto in the ministeries of the same being driuen out of their possessions and olde indowments in the midst of gold and siluer Iewels and Plate as Tantalus in the miast of water wanting water where rather the support should be certaine and liberall for Gods honour and the Kings for the attendance of such an one as both may informe the officers and seruants there and inhabitants besides to the number welnigh of 400. communicants aggregated thither and escaping scot and lot else where who enioy all diuine rights for themselues and their families at the Ministers hands and as though their soules were worth nothing or free of heauen honour the Lord with no part of their substance and may at times also by moderate dropping of his words vpon the Prisoners rather then at or a little before their death for their error came not in a moment nor is Christian regeneration ripened but by degrees instruct the contrarie minded with patience as the ample saith trying whether God will giue them repentance at any time to know the truth that they may come to amendment out of the snare of the diuel of whom they are held to do his wil which place of scripture I confesse I haue long time much made of In which kind my poore labours haue not beene in vaine in the Lord both to the reclaiming of diuers and to the discouerie of matter beneficiall to the estate which I think some of their honors haue not forgot glorfied be the name of him that hath his chaire in heauen and teacheth the heart In all which ripe and sweet fruites of your faith that you may increase with the mighty increases of God my harty prayer is that so you may be eminent daily in this your whole so carefull a charge and employment in this royall Castle the key of the kingdome that you make that marble which you found brick that that which was planted with wilde figs you may establish with Cedars finally so to wade thorough this whole cumbersome vncertaine sea full of many new monsters as that you may haue an Oliue branch still in your hand with an vncorrupt mind lift vp your head to the head of all with holy ouation saying I haue run my full race I haue fought a good fight I haue kept my selfe in the faith and others Clavum et clipeū tenui Amen Your Worships in his best offices and seruices ●or the Church William Hubbard To the deuout and Christian Reader A Foundation and direction of expressing my thoughts by way of Psalme hath beene the Apostles holy canon and sanction Let the word of Christ dwelt in you plenteously in all wisedome teaching and admonishing your owne selues in Psalmes and Himnes and spirituall songs And I finde that our Lord and Maister Iesus Christ after he had kept his passeouer with his disciples and washed their feet after supper and instituted performed the sacrament in an excellent sermon or sermocination reaching from Iohn cha 13 31. thorough the whole 14.15.16 chapters with a prayer annexed containing the whole 17. chap. he thought not this heauenly feast and banquer sufficiently furnished vnlesse hee closed vp their spirituall stomack with a Psalme as some precious marm●let● For so saith the scripture When they had sung a Psalme they went out into the mount of Oliues A most Christian exercise and too much neglected among professours Others in great varietie of inuention in verse prose in Latine and English in sermon otherwise haue trauelled in this argument laudably and fruitfully some memorably euen by the voyce of a dolefull Pyramis demolished in Fraunce crauing restitution in noble great Brittaine yea the Theater and English Roscius himselfe hath pourtrayed this work of God and set it aloft tanquam in arce Phidiae as it were in the turret of the famous caruer Phidias to the view of all men But I tooke this course the rather because I obserue the friends of the Romish Pioners to haue had a secret seauenfold Psalmodie as a claudestinarie orison frō hand to hand in which they solace themselues with strange notes and tunes and ditties and hopes of newes as in an insolent Paean triumphing before hand for a Iubily golden day at hand I will set downe some of their words because the booke is not in manie hands And I by a good friend came by the most of it Of innocent King Edward thus they speake England ah vngratefull England forgat the liuing God and felt the curse of hauing a child to her King Of our late Queene of thrice blessed memory thus they seeme to say The nobility to their owne vtter extirpation shamefully forsooke their Bishops without assistance Of our noble Soueraigne they seeme thus Alas O Lord that thou hast suffered a parching winde to blow from the North Which made the boughes of thy planting to
and destroyer of the world She keepeth her latitat in her laterane liuing a shadowed life and setteth others to that worke to which shee putteth not her finger wherefore stir vp your heroicall spirits prepare your selues to fulfill the rest of Gods mysterie prophecied before that ten Kings should ioyne in one consent against this whore of Babel who committeth states together to kill one another for her Proclaime a sacred warre against her to shew your holy hatred of her that Sion may rise Babylon may fall and her smoake may rise vp more and more do you begin to blesse this Lord who hath shewed by this example to all the world that he specially loueth the liues of Kings Princes and Counsailers of estate and therefore do you your vttermost and what cannot Kings do to set forth the lawes of this King of Kings in all your Realmes shew your selues to be Kings and free men not in bondage to any but restorers of the world according to your great power can you haue a better time and occasion see the stirring and readie affections of many Kings Potentates and States to concurre with you blesse this Lord GOD of whom you hold your crownes praise him and magnifie him for euer O Ye holy Angels and celestiall creatures that excell in strength whereas we are weake you that fulfill his commaundements and hearken perfectly vnto the voyce of his words whereas we vpon earth are all short you that pitched your tents about the parliament house and all our tabernacles that looked so faithfully and louingly to your charge so that no foote did stumble at any stone blesse you this Lord forvs and with vs in all your heauenly queers praise him and magnifie him for euer O All you people of the word Iewes and Christians Turks and Infidels ciuill and Barbarians Indians and Cannibals friends and enemies whatsoeuer consider I pray you in all your Countries generations whether any like horrible vnnaturall and execrable thing euer were where neither the dread of the God of life nor duty to a sacred King nor the tendernes of a gracious Queene nor the sweetnes and golden hope of a young Prince nor authority of Counsailers of estate nor reuerence of prelates nor honour of nobility nor grauity of Iudges nor respect of the flower of their owne Countrie nor consideration of the face of the aged nor any hope of the young ones nor pittie of the innocent nor compassion to the harmlesse multitude nor loue to their owne affectionate in the same religion nor bowels of nature to their owne Country nor rule of scripture to thinke of heauens Country nor relenting of conscience in themselues in so many moneths of leisure to worke any remorse but the more hardening nor pietie to the memories of the dead nor awe to any liuing what opinion the world should haue of such incendiaries nor feare of any to reuenge it nor care of posterity to confound mens estates and rights by destroying their deeds writings in the fire nor thought of iustice to let men haue a lawfull triall nor abhorring of cruelty in the multitudes of the slaine nor barbarousnes in the manner of death or rather in so many manners of death burning drowning stoning beheading quartering pressing nor touch to the rufull scriching and howling of the maymed bruised wounded not slaine outright nor charity to send men to hell as they thought without time to aske mercy nor fore-cast of perill to them and theirs if they should be discouered nor any thing in heauen earth or hell this world or the world to come could moue them some being of great birth and wealth some of zeale and professed religion some of the priesthood of the Romane faith and all naturally of this Countrie and nation but that they complotted contriued put in practise to their vttermost power the most diuellish murder butchery and massacre that euer Sathan hatched from the beginning of the world frō the shedding of the blood of Abel the righteous at which we that scaped admire and adore him that saued vs they that heare it are amazed astonished and can scarcely beleeue that any such thing was but that it is apparant as the sunne in the firmaments which all nations doe now ring of and is readie for euery Chronicle as the new manuell of the world both in attempt and deliuerance to shewe the odiousnes of bloudie and woluish Rome and the soueraignty and fatherly loue of God to mankinde and especially to the English nation protestant Churches there Doe you therefore O all you people tribes kindreds and nations of the world and all ye works of the Lord in all places of his dominion doe you I say speake good of the name of the Lord let euery one that hath faith let euery one that hath breath and common feeling and sence of humanitie and loueth the liues of men in the common affection to mankinde glorifie GOD that loueth to saue many people aliue and hence learne to abhor the Abadon the Apollyon and Romish destroyer and to honour this God of our life who holdeth all their soules in life let them blesse this Lord in their Countries and Regions praise him and magnifie him for euer O All you people that heare me this day or shall reade any part of this sacrifice of thanksgiuing be stirred vp heereby the more to lift vp your hearts vnto God to extoll his name exalt his glory and found out his praise in all places and vpon all óccasions especially to celebrate him for the riches of his mercie in the defence of the Gospell in our protestant Churches O my soule and all that is within me and all that belongeth vnto me blesse thou not only in word and writing but in deed and truth this holy name
