that obey not the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ 2 Thes 1.7 8. But to be glorified in his Saints and admired in all them that believe Vers 10. Yet who hath believed our report and to whom is the Arm of the Lord revealed Isa 53.1 For the Triple-crowned-little-HORN hath opened his mouth speaking great things against the most High and hath worn out the Saints of the Most High hath thought to change Times and Laws and they have been given into his hands for a time and times and the dividing of times Dan. 7.25 The Angel saith not to Daniel that the little HORN did change Times and Laws For Gen. 8.22 Till Heaven and Earth pass one jot or one tittle in no wise shall pass from the Law till all be fulfilled Mat. 5.18 The HORN thought to change Times and Laws but the Saints believe and swear they are changed such tough-little-Horn men Saints are grown The little Horn makes the Lie and Saints believe the Lie Are they not both joyned together Rev. 22.15 I did write to BISHOPS on the Kings Birth-day that I must not palliate the Cure To STATESMEN in the beginning of Midsummer Term to offer my Lamp And to the UNIVERSITIES about the solemn time of their Acts and Commencements to make my Goose-quill make a noise and awaken the CAPITOL of ENGLAND Promising also if they did not I would answer the Question But having heard no Answer as if what God had vouchsafed to reveal in a Vision to his greatly beloved Prophet Dan 9.23 And his Angel to interpret it Dan. 7.16 were all but a TRIFLE I shall boldly affirm that the Times and Laws there thought to be changed are the TIMES and LAWS of GOD even the Commandments of God and the Faith of Jesus Rev. 14.12 To pass through the dark Meanders of the little Horn that I might not palliate the Cure I shall light my Lamp and fill my Quill making a noise over the Capitol to save the Nation in rescuing the Laws of God from the usurping THOUGHTS of the little Horn. I shall lay before them whether they would have but one Lawgiver who is only able to save Jam. 4.12 Isa 33.22 Or many Lawgivers who are only able to destroy Whether they will have God or Mammon Mat. 6.24 Christ or Belial 2 Cor. 6.16 For his servants we are to whom we obey Rom. 6.16 Whether they will have the LAW of GOD which is holy just good and spiritual Rom. 7.12 14. Which also endureth for even 1 Pet. 1.25 And which shall judge us in the last day John 12.48 Or the Changling-Times and Laws of the little HORN which blaspheme God and wear out the Saints lasting no longer than the next swearing Mark of the Beast Rev. 13.16 17. Both which being brought to the light Jo. 3.20 21. will be made manifest Eph. 5.13 Behold now the Commandments in order Com. 1 TO HAVE BUT ONE GOD. Exo. 20.3 Deu. 5.7 But the Little-Horn hath Gods many and Lords many 1 Cor 8.5 'T is also written Faith is the gift of God Eph. 2.8 But the Little-Horn hath Godfathers and Godmothers to keep the Faith of the Children in Pawn till they come to Age. Com. 2 TO WORSHIP NONE BUT GOD Exo. 20.4 5. Deu. 5.8 9. But as the Heathen worshipped Juno and Idolatrous Israel the Cake-Queen of Heaven Jer 7.18 ch 44.18 19. to whom they poured out drink-offerings as if they sold Ale and Cakes in Heaven So the Little-Horn worship the VIRGIN-QUEEN of Heaven a Mother of Five Sons and of all their Sisters Mat. 12.47 ch 13.55 56. But this is not all the worship which the little Horn hath thought to change for he hath multiplied WATER-GODS by Millions Besides all Saints and all Souls are worshipped contrary to this Commandment To this Commandment Gods Statutes and Judgments appoint Death without mercy unto Idolaters Exo. 32.27 Num. 25 4-9 Ch. 31 1-13 Deu. 13 1-11 But the little Horn makes all IDOLATERS hail fellow well met As good as any Christians calling themselves the Kings best Friends and their Witness as authentick as the Kings Evidence Com. 3 TAKE NOT THE NAME OF GOD IN VAIN Exo. 20.7 Deu. 5.11 Men formerly did swear in Truth in Judgment and in Righteousness Jer. 4.2 But Christ saith Swear not at all Mat. 5.34 And his Servant James saith Above all things my brethren swear not Jam. 5.12 But the little Horn alloweth imposeth and maintaineth Swearing Forswearing and Fals-swaring as things meritorious for the MOTHER-CHURCH though for these things the Land mourneth Jer. 23.10 Hos 4.2 3. Com. 4 THE SEVENTH DAY IS THE SABBATH OF THE LORD THY GOD Exo. 20.8 9 10 11. Deu. 5.12 13 14 15. But the little Horn hath changed that time giving the Lie to the Seventh day and saith in plain terms that the First day is the Sabbath of the Lord So that here the time is changed every Week Then from Even to Even was the Sabbath Lev. 23.32 Now from Morning to Evening is the Sabbath Then they might not speak their own words nor do their own works nor take their own pleasure Isa 58.13 Now they have all liberty of works or sports or words Com. 5 HONOUR PARENTS Exo. 20.12 Deu. 5.16 A stubborn and rebellio●● Son must be brought by his Father and Mother to the Elders of the City to be stoned to death Deu. 21 18-22 But the little Horn hath thought to change this Law so as to make it MURTHER Com. 6 THOU SHALT NOT KILL Exo. 20.13 Deu. 5.17 'T is written Who so sheddeth mans blood by man shall his blood be shed Gen. 9.6 But the little Horn grants a Pardon Com. 7 THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTERY Exo. 20.14 Deu. 25.18 This was punished with Death Lev. 20.10 But the little Horn thinks to change it into Pennance of a White Sheet Com. 8 THOU SHALT NOT STEAL Exo. 20.15 Deu. 5.19 The Thief formerly was to restore four fold or be sold Exo. 22.1.3 But the little Horn hangeth up men for Thirteen-pence half-peny and confiscateth all his Goods Com. 9 THOU SHALT NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS Exo. 20.16 Deu. 5.20 The false Witness formerly was to have it done to him as he thought to have done to another Life for Life Eye for Eye Tooth for Tooth Hand for Hand Foot for Foot Deu. 19.18 19. Exo. 21.23 24 25. But the little Horn thinketh to change it into a Pillory or Pardon Com. 10 THOU SHALT NOT COVET Exo. 20.17 Deu. 5.21 Covetousness was punished in Achans whole Family Josh 7 21-27 But the little Horn passeth all Scot-free punishing none unless a Cheat or Fraud be found and proved Thus the Laws of these Commands are thought to be changed Behold the little Horn now in the Faith of Jesus 1. As to BAPTISM Jesus saith except one be born from above he cannot see the Kingdom of God John 3.3 He also saith Except one be born of Water and of the Spirit he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God John 3.5 The little Horn is so charitable as to crowd in all Infants and take the Kingdom of God by force of Circumcision least he should lose so many Fees and Members of his Church 'T is true Circumcision was under th● LAW but the little Horn hath Placed RANTISM in the room of it and called it Baptism 1. Then Males only were circumcised But the little Horn rantiseth both Sexes 2. Then the eighth day was precisely appointed Gen. 17.12 Ch. 21.4 Exod. 5.25 26. But now at any time Infants are rantised when the little-Horn-Gossips can agree about it 3. Then Circumcision was in the fore-Skin Now Rantism is in the Face with a Cross in the Forehead 4. Then they went down into the Water were baptized and buried under water Rom. 6.4 rising again out of the Rivers and many Waters As Jesus Mat. 3.16 17. John in Enon Jo. 3.23 Philip and the Enuch Acts 8.38 But now a BASIN or Sucking-Bottle will serve turn 5. To Baptism is required Faith Mark 16.16 Acts 8.37 Now they only require it in Parents who are misbelievers 6. Then Jesus took a journey from Galilee to Jordan to be Baptized of John Mat. 3.13 But the little Horn saves all that Labour by bringing Rantism into a Chamber Thus the little Horn hath thought to change the Times and Laws of Baptism under the Gospel 2. As to the LORDS SUPPER This was instituted about Midnight in the end of eating the Passover Exod. 12.29.31.42 Mat. 26 26 27. Mark 14.22 23. Luke 22.19 20. 1 Cor. 11.23 24 25. Mat. 25.6 Acts 20.7 8.11 in breaking of Bread and drinking of Wine But the little Horn by vertue of Tapers and Lamps do enlighten their dark misteries in all times of Night or Day throughout the year transubstantiating the visible WATER into the invisible Flesh and Blood of Christ making them swallow it whole Bones and all as often as they please to the very last Moment of their Breath That they may be as well provided of Victuals for so great a Journey as Heaven like the provision of ELIAS who at one meal was sufficiently fed for a Journey of 40 Days and 40 Nights to Horeb the Mount of God 1 Kings 19.8 But some are so favourable as to avoid the Evil report of NIGHT-MEETINGS to have Bread and Wine at Noon-Day with two unlighted Tapers to shew it should be Midnight Thus hath the little Horn mangled and changed hoth times things and meaning of the very words I appeal therefore to all Bishops Statesmen Magistrates and Universities whether these Changes of Times and Laws are not of the Times and Laws of God And of unthroning Christ the LAW-GIVER Likewise whether King and Kingdom had better continue in the Little-Horn-Changes which they are sworn to or be forsworn to keep the COMMANDEMENTS of God and the FAITH of Jesus LONDON Printed for H.

Cor. 14 1.-10 so I would not run the Gauntlet of my Country-mens Tongues in the Apostles Language to censure me of Barbarism 1. Cor. 4.11 nor yet to hazard the Censure of our Saviour as if I shunned the LIGHT of common People John 3.19 20. I therefore dip my Pen in the IDIOM of our Mother Tongue And in the first place I most humbly Salute those of mine own Country that as it becomes us first to cast the Beam out of our own eye Mat. 7.3 4 5.

The Tripple-Crowned-Little-Horn-Change of TIMES and LAWS which God thought good to reveal Dan. 7.1 25. to his greatly beloved Prophet Dan. 9.23 And sent his Angel to interpret Dan. 7.15 16. ought not to be undervalued by Men of Wisdom and Honour 3. Be you pleased to restore those TIMES and LAWS there spoken of and you will not find it a work so Contemptible as some may imagine I have writen to the most Reverend ARCH-BISHOPS and BISHOPS about it They being for the WORD as you for the SWORD If then you be joyned together in the Work of the Lord You will bring it to Light and make it manifest that your Work is wrought in God Joh. 3.20.21 If any Particulars lie hid be pleased to command the LAMP of My Lords and Gentlemen Your Lordships and Worships Most Loyal-English-Servant Peter Chamberlen June 12. 1682.

There wants some to say what Times and what Laws the Angel spake of to Daniel Dan. 7.25 To which purpose I did write to the Most Reverend ARCH-BISHOPS and BISHOPS on the Kings Birth-Day and the most Honourable JUDGES in Term time in the very beginning And now to your Selves against your Days of Solemnity that many Hands may make light Work Plus vident Oculi quam Oculus If then you are pleased to make a Discovery of those TIMES and LAWS you do well but if you can restore them you do better For so extravagant is yet the LITTLE-HORN in England that if any Single Pen should draw the Curtain and discover the Nakedness of ANTICHRIST in those Times and Laws they would immediately bestow upon him the Curse of CHAM or adjudge him to Fire and Fagot And the SCENT of the HORN is yet so Rank that it is not in the Power of KING and PARLIAMENT to make a perfect Restauration Yet do not you refuse your helping hand Est aliquid prodire tenus si non detur ultra How strange would it appear if after all your Silence my Goos-Quill should make a Noise and awaken the CAPITOL of ENGLAND to prevent a total Desolation prophesied by the Lord Jesus Christ Mat. 12.25 Let not this Service be unseasonable from June 19. 1682.
