Schism shall be at an End and cease for ever Many Things that are innocent lawful and laudable which have soul Marks and black Characters stampt and fixe upon 'em here they shall be perfectly purified and fully cleansed from there where at one View more shall be known of them than by all wrangling Debates and eager Disputes or by reading all Polemical Books concerning them here I greatly deplore and bewail the greedy Appetite and insatiable Thirst that professing Protestants have after the Blood of their Brethren and the high pleasure they take in the Effusion thereof But what will not Men do when they are either judicially blinded or their secular worldly Interest insensibly insinuates and winds it self into their Religion is so twisted and incorporated with it that it animates and acts it is the Life and Soul the vital Form and Power and made wholly subservient thereunto My Lord Jefferies after he had left Bristol being come to the King to give an Account of his Affairs in the West the Great Seal being to be disposed of by the Death of the late Keeper he kiss'd the King's Hand for it and was made Lord Chancellour which was only an Earnest of his Desert for so eminent and extraordinary a piece of Service so now that which remains is to give an Account of divers that had fled and hid themselves up and down in Holes and Privacies whose Friends made all Application to some great Men or other to procure their Pardons some to this and others to such as they thought Favourites of the King but the Rewards must be ascertain'd before any Application could be made Divers Lists being sent up and the Rewards ascertained which amongst many of them put together did amount to considerable so that it was now who could find a Friend to relieve his distressed Relations which were forced to wander up and down in Caves and Desarts for fear of being taken But this Misfortune attended the Agents that unless my Lord Chancellour were used by his Creatures that were allowed by him so to do other Applications commonly met with Disappointments which caused an Emulation among the great Men one supposing to have deserted the King's Ear as well as the other which caused other Measures to be taken though some were wheedled out of their Money At last came out a General Pardon with Exceptions very few if any of those that were sollicited for not being excepted were of Course pardoned but however divers Sums of Money having been paid no Restitution to be had for from Hell is no Redemption A Western Gentleman's Purchase came to fifteen or sixteen hundred Guineas which my Lord Chancellour had Amongst the Exceptions were a Parcel of Yaunton Girls some of which were Children of eight or ten Years old however something was to be made of them if these Ladies were judged guilty of Treason for presenting the Duke of Monmouth with Colours c. and for to preserve these from Trial they were given to Maids of Honour to make up their Christmas Box so that an Agent of theirs was sent down into the Country to compound with their Parents to preserve them from what might after follow if taken so that some according to Ability gave 100 l. others 50 l. all which however did not answer the Ladies first Expectations yet it did satisfie and they were accordingly pardoned Thus we have given you an Account of what hath happened on this Occasion being in every Point Truth We might have farther enlarged but that would have spoiled the Design and swoln our Pocket-Companion to a Volume too big We shall therefore next proceed to give you a true and exact List of all them that were condemned and suffered in the West and the Year 1685. under the Sentence of my Lord Chief Justice Jeffreys with the Names of the Towns where every Man was executed Lyme 12.
