But Amaziah so soon as he was confirmed in the Kingdome slew those wicked Servants that murdered his Father Julius Caesars Butchers came all of them to untimely Deaths and some of them were cut off by their own hand with those very Weapons wherewith they killed him But since I need not travaile out of England to fetch examples of this kind I shall offer a few of our own to your view and serious perusall King Henry the 6th was deprived of his Kingdome and together with his young Son Edward imprisoned and put to death by King Edward the 4th King Edward the 4th died not without suspicion of poyson After his death his two Sons were imprisoned and murdered in the Tower by their bloudy Uncle the cruell Duke of Glocester who being a Tyrannical Usurper was encountred and justly slain in Bosworth Fields by Henry the 7th King Henry the 〈◊〉 an Usurper had only one Son and one Daughter his Son William was drowned in his passage from Normandy his Daughter Maud was disinherited by Stephen of her Birthright and E●stace the only Son of King Stephen died mad in his Fathers life-time But that English Judas Machiavil Ravillack Cromwell though he deserve to lead the Van of all Heathenish Atheisticall Pe●jur'd Jesuitical Traitors shall bring up the Rear of these Odious Execrable Exampler He murdered his Gracious Soveraign Exiled his pious Son enslaved his Fellow-Subjects shed abundance of innocent Bloud Tyrannized over Three Kingdoms Nursed Heresies protected and promoted Traytors justified Rebellion designed laboured and endeavoured to extirpate Monarchy together with all the Royall Progeny of our late blessed King of ever glorious Memory This is that Cromwel of whom as of most Tyrants that may be truly affirmed which Florus saith of Beasts sc Maxime mortiferi esse solent morsus morientium bestiarum for usually the Older the Crueller the nearer their end and destruction the bloudier and more barbarous they are His name stinks worse then his rotten carcasse his memory is loathsome to all honest hearts and his Children who had built their nests amongst the Stars are tumbled down by the angry Arme of a just God and do now lie level with the surface of the earth not so much as a branch sprout or stump of that hollow rotten tree remaining either in power or honour So true is that of Curtius Nulla quaesita scelere potentia est diuturna Thus we see that Rebellion kindles such a Fire as will not be quenched till either the Traytors themselves or their miserable posterity be consumed The joy of Hypocrites is but for a moment and the triumphing of the wicked is short saith Zophar Since I began to write God hath effected two more famous Monuments of his hatred against Rebellion in England I shall therefore though I intended to add no more briefly mention them The one is his mercifull blasting the hopes of those persons commonly called the fly-blown stinking Rump The other is his seasonable breaking the horns of those Phanaticks in the North.

before all time and created the world was yet born in the fulnesse of time and became man in the world That he who fils both Heaven and earth and can neither be included nor excluded any where was shut up and confined within the narrow womb of a Virgin That he who is the Omnipotent and can do whatever pleaseth him could neither go nor stand That he who is Wisdome it self could not understand That he who is the Word could not speak That Christ was killed before he was alive and slain before he was born That he who is Almighty was held in the Arms and bound in the hands of a weak Woman That the Mother of Christ was both his Daughter Creature Spouse and a pure Virgin even after her Son was born And that if Jesus had not been slain for her from the beginning of the World Mary had not lived 3. A true beleever is both a Pebble and a Diamond a Pillar and a Troubler of the World He is both the honour and scorn the love envy and hatred of men In the Arithmetique of the wicked he standeth but for a Cypher but in the account of an holy God he is a Summe In the scales of the World he is drosse but in the Ballance of the Sanctuary Gold 4. A true Beleever is a merry mourner one cheerfully sorrowfull And as sometimes the clouds and Sun do rain and shine together So while Rivers of penitent griefe and tears spring up in his heart and run out at the floud-gates of his eyes celestiall beams of unknown joy comfort gladnesse dart upon irradiate and revive his dark troubled drooping Spirit 5. He riseth by falling Humiliation is his exaltation He goeth to Heaven by Hell And is never so high and precious in Gods eyes as when he is vilest and lowest in his own 6. A true Beleever is cured by sicknesse being never so well as when he fainteth is even ready to die of love for Christ Affliction is his physick Julip happinesse He is saved by ship-wrack landed by stormes and deeply rooted by winds and shakings 7. He beeleveth God to be most just and yet that the Lord from all eternity decreed that the innocent should be condemned and suffer to acquit the guilty And also that the greatest sinners should be saved by one should dye for sin and yet never committed any sin He beleeveth himself to be freely pardoned and yet knows that a price was paid for his redemption worth more then ten thousand Worlds He beleeves God to be most mercifull most loving and yet knows that God delivered up his own his only Son and suffered him to suffer not only the most bitter painfull and cruell but also the most shamefull Death And likewise that the Lord poured out upon him the fullest vials of his fiercest wrath and that all this was done endured and suffered for those who were both Enemies and Traytors to God and his Son 8. A true Beleever hateth all the World yet is no mans Enemy He is implacable yet without malice inexorable yet easy to be perswaded He prayeth for and heartily forgiveth his very Murderers His worst enemies are friends to him and do him good He sinneth least when he is most angry Taketh revenge on no body but himself And never pleaseth God more then when he is most offended and displeased with himself 9. A true Beleever is the most ambitious man in the World For nothing can satisfie or bound his aspiring mind but a Kingdome and Crown yet he is the most Loyall Subject and the greatest contemner of all sublunary things He wageth and maintaineth with courage resolution delight and constancy perpetuall Warrs and yet he is the greatest lover of peace lives in peace is the most quiet man and dies in peace He is victorious yea invincible yet fights without men against both men and Devills And though he be plundered beggered and lose all yet he groweth rich and great by wars without pay or pillage 10. He is born both alive and dead He dies twice and lives a threefold life of Nature Grace Glory He hath one resurrection before another after he is dead 11. He studieth with delight and diligence to know that which he is assured will both grieve and trouble him being known He is never so wise as when he knoweth himself to be a Fool. He is never so likely to get safe to shore as when he is most fearful of being cast away He is never beautifull untill he see and acknowledge himself to be ugly and deformed and the more he loaths himself the more God loves him 12. He is born of mean and base Parents and yet he is the only truly noble Man For he hath the Royallest bloud greatest alliances and relations highest titles choycest honours honourablest Attendants and the best estate of any man For God is his Father Christ is his Husband Heaven is his mansion Saints are his Brethren Angells are his Servants and Glory is his inheritance 13. A true Beleever is born both a Begger and an Heir He often lives poor yet is alwaies Rich and dies wealthy though without Lands money goods He keepeth his estate by sending it away and increaseth it by spending of it when others not only lessen but lose theirs by sparing and saving it And he taketh his treasure with him to his Grave and beyond it 14. He is never whole till he hath been broken He is never rightly throughly cured until he hath been deeply wounded He is never on earth more really happy then when he seemeth to be truly miserable Injuries are favours to him losses gain calamities mercies afflictions consolations The breaking of his bones setteth them and makes them both straight and strong 15. A true Beleever liveth in Heaven whilest he sojourns upon Earth he speaketh in company without being heard receives answers which no man can either intercept demurre or perceive enjoyes the best company though alone He walks while he lies still and is not there where men behold him 16. He hath a continuall feast without flesh and eating A Banquet without sweet meats melody without musick and Joy in the middest of sorrow He is dear beloved owned when he thinks himself despised rejected hated He beleeves he shall find pleasure in pain honey in gal life in death and doth so 17. He hath all things in the midst of his extreamest wants yet is beholding to the World for nothing for he fetcheth his meat drink clothes mercies comforts and whatever he possesseth from Heaven He sends by faithful frequent fervent prayers to Christ for them bids patience wait and appoints hope to bring him an answer which believing he shall receive it cometh indeed either according to his desires and expectation or beyond them He alwaies speeds and obtains even when his suit is denyed He hath what he will because he will have but what he may and therefore he sits down both contented and thankfull though he be crossed 18.
