religion_n and_o induce_v to_o espouse_v the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n i_o be_v according_o receive_v with_o great_a ceremony_n into_o the_o say_a church_n by_o cardinal_n grimaldi_n

thing_n be_v brief_o premise_v and_o intimate_v that_o which_o i_o have_v section_n xv_o next_o to_o offer_n be_v that_o while_o i_o be_v at_o rome_n i_o frequent_o hear_v the_o jesuit_n both_v

pleasure_n of_o the_o pope_n and_o from_o hence_o we_o may_v learn_v these_o two_o thing_n 1._o that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o lawful_a but_o necessary_a in_o order_n to_o the_o preservation_n of_o the_o peace_n and_o safety_n of_o the_o kingdom_n that_o all_o who_o have_v imbibe_v these_o doctrine_n shall_v be_v account_v traitor_n and_o according_o proceed_v against_o though_o never_o

far_o as_o the_o popish_a religion_n have_v only_o a_o influence_n upon_o the_o future_a state_n of_o man_n it_o be_v never_o punish_v with_o death_n in_o england_n it_o be_v only_o upon_o the_o foot_n of_o those_o doctrine_n which_o instruct_v and_o countenance_v they_o to_o overthrow_v the_o state_n and_o government_n that_o romish_a priest_n be_v just_o make_v liable_a to_o suffer_v and_o therefore_o the_o priest_n who_o be_v late_o execute_v without_o be_v arraign_v for_o any_o thing_n save_v for_o their_o be_v so_o and_o their_o withdraw_a his_o majesty_n subject_n from_o the_o religion_n by_o law_n establish_v be_v as_o real_a traitor_n as_o those_o who_o be_v convince_v for_o conspiracy_n against_o the_o king_n life_n 2._o i_o will_v further_o infer_v from_o the_o forego_n doctrine_n that_o no_o security_n can_v be_v have_v of_o the_o loyalty_n of_o any_o person_n that_o be_v so_o possess_v for_o so_o long_o as_o he_o hold_v that_o any_o one_o have_v authority_n to_o depose_v the_o prince_n under_o who_o government_n he_o live_v it_o be_v impossible_a that_o such_o a_o prince_n can_v be_v secure_v of_o the_o fidelity_n and_o allegiance_n of_o that_o subject_a and_o it_o be_v very_o remarkable_a that_o whereas_o some_o of_o the_o irish_a papist_n since_o his_o majesty_n restauration_n have_v in_o a_o remonstrance_n prepare_v for_o the_o persuade_v the_o government_n of_o their_o loyalty_n only_o acknowledge_v though_o they_o have_v not_o swear_v it_o that_o king_n charles_n be_v their_o lawful_a king_n and_o the_o pope_n have_v no_o power_n to_o depose_v he_o how_o thereupon_o they_o be_v tell_v from_o rome_n that_o they_o have_v renounce_v the_o catholic_n faith_n and_o that_o they_o be_v fall_v under_o the_o condemnation_n of_o the_o apostolic_a see_n for_o as_o the_o pope_n nuncio_n at_o brussels_n by_o a_o letter_n date_v july_n 21._o 1662._o inform_v they_o how_o that_o their_o remonstrance_n be_v examine_v at_o rome_n by_o

that_o he_o do_v not_o so_o much_o as_o permit_v or_o connive_v at_o it_o and_o therefore_o condemn_v it_o in_o this_o form_n that_o it_o can_v not_o be_v keep_v without_o breach_n of_o faith_n according_a to_o the_o decree_n of_o paul_n the_o five_o and_o that_o it_o deny_v the_o pope_n authority_n in_o matter_n of_o faith_n according_a to_o that_o of_o innocent_a the_o ten_o i_o do_v further_o declare_v that_o during_o my_o abode_n at_o rome_n i_o hear_v the_o jesuit_n section_n xvi_o often_o affirm_v and_o publish_v that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o lawful_a to_o kill_v any_o prince_n or_o person_n excommunicate_v and_o declare_v a_o heretic_n but_o that_o it_o be_v meritorious_a to_o do_v so_o nor_o be_v this_o the_o opinion_n only_o of_o one_o or_o two_o or_o of_o such_o as_o may_v be_v esteem_v rash_a and_o giddy_a but_o it_o be_v the_o common_a doctrine_n of_o all_o the_o jesuit_n there_o and_o i_o do_v by_o all_o that_o may_v obtain_v credit_n with_o mankind_n testify_v that_o i_o have_v hear_v it_o assert_v by_o father_n anderton_n rector_n of_o the_o english_a college_n of_o the_o jesuit_n at_o rome_n father_n campion_n minister_n of_o the_o say_a

monto_fw-la portio_fw-la within_o fifteen_o mile_n of_o rome_n and_o from_o this_o i_o desire_v to_o make_v these_o three_o remark_n 1._o that_o every_o protestant_a prince_n be_v hereby_o expose_v to_o the_o mercy_n of_o any_o one_o that_o under_o the_o encouragement_n of_o merit_a heaven_n will_v take_v the_o boldness_n to_o assassinate_n he_o for_o all_o such_o prince_n both_o by_o the_o

excommunicate_a nor_o be_v the_o jesuit_n singular_a in_o this_o opinion_n that_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o kill_v heretical_a prince_n for_o the_o pope_n himself_o by_o a_o decree_n in_o their_o canon_n law_n have_v teach_v and_o declare_v the_o same_o excommunicatorum_fw-la we_o do_v not_o esteem_v they_o murderer_n say_v pope_n vrban_n who_o shall_v happen_v to_o kill_v any_o excommunicate_a person_n out_o of_o a_o ardour_n and_o zeal_n to_o the_o catholic_n church_n their_o mother_n second_o i_o will_v observe_v from_o hence_o what_o opinion_n we_o be_v to_o have_v of_o all_o that_o the_o five_o jesuit_n declare_v upon_o their_o salvation_n in_o their_o late_a die_a speech_n god_n be_v equal_o invoke_v to_o be_v a_o witness_n of_o all_o they_o say_v and_o their_o

the_o queen_n shall_v be_v take_v off_o by_o any_o undue_a mean_n to_o avenge_v it_o upon_o the_o papist_n and_o this_o association_n be_v so_o far_o then_o from_o be_v apprehend_v a_o seditious_a

where_o to_o this_o purpose_n deserve_v a_o serious_a remark_n namely_o that_o the_o jesuit_n have_v calculate_v the_o king_n and_o the_o duke_n nativity_n which_o by_o the_o way_n be_v treason_n by_o law_n and_o find_v that_o the_o king_n will_v in_o a_o course_n of_o nature_n outlive_v the_o duke_n they_o thereupon_o agree_v and_o resolve_v to_o have_v he_o cut_v off_o by_o violence_n the_o have_v a_o popish_a king_n again_o in_o england_n will_v be_v of_o so_o great_a concernment_n to_o the_o see_v of_o rome_n that_o we_o may_v easy_o conceive_v especial_o see_v the_o principle_n of_o their_o religion_n do_v befriend_v they_o that_o they_o will_v not_o boggle_v at_o the_o murder_n of_o his_o present_a majesty_n to_o compass_v and_o effect_v it_o and_o whatsoever_o security_n the_o protestant_n may_v flatter_v themselves_o with_o as_o to_o their_o religion_n from_o the_o promise_n which_o his_o highness_n may_v make_v unto_o they_o yet_o this_o may_v serve_v to_o undeceive_v they_o that_o not_o only_o the_o council_n of_o constance_n have_v determine_v that_o no_o faith_n be_v to_o be_v keep_v with_o heretic_n 5._o but_o that_o martin_n the_o 5._o tell_v alexander_n duke_n of_o lithuania_n that_o if_o he_o keep_v his_o oath_n with_o such_o he_o sin_v mortal_o second_o the_o advantage_n which_o they_o reckon_v upon_o the_o king_n death_n arise_v not_o only_o from_o the_o consideration_n that_o the_o presumptive_a heir_n be_v a_o papist_n but_o that_o he_o be_v more_o zealous_a for_o that_o religion_n than_o prince_n of_o the_o same_o religion_n either_o be_v or_o use_v to_o be_v it_o be_v of_o great_a concernment_n to_o their_o interest_n to_o see_v a_o papist_n how_o lukewarm_a and_o indifferent_a so_o ever_o in_o that_o profession_n exalt_v to_o

be_v of_o far_o great_a consequence_n to_o they_o than_o most_o person_n be_v willing_a to_o apprehend_v i_o know_v that_o there_o be_v some_o monarch_n of_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n that_o be_v not_o of_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o court_n of_o rome_n and_o therefore_o though_o they_o give_v all_o due_a protection_n and_o encouragement_n to_o the_o romish_a religion_n yet_o it_o be_v still_o without_o suffer_v it_o to_o undermine_v the_o state_n or_o to_o introduce_v the_o papal_a jurisdiction_n though_o they_o countenance_v their_o subject_n in_o the_o papal_a worship_n yet_o they_o be_v not_o willing_a to_o see_v they_o enslave_v to_o the_o pope_n usurpation_n but_o whether_o the_o duke_n of_o york_n shall_v he_o once_o arrive_v at_o the_o crown_n will_v think_v it_o enough_o to_o allow_v the_o pope_n only_o his_o power_n in_o spiritual_n without_o grant_v he_o the_o right_n which_o he_o challenge_v in_o temporal_n i_o can_v tell_v but_o this_o i_o can_v say_v that_o the_o hope_n which_o the_o jesuit_n have_v of_o see_v the_o whole_a papal_a jurisdiction_n establish_v by_o his_o mean_n and_o as_o fruit_n of_o his_o zeal_n to_o the_o holy_a see_v over_o these_o kingdom_n be_v a_o great_a motive_n to_o precipitate_v his_o advancement_n to_o the_o monarchy_n and_o for_o their_o conspire_v the_o destroy_v of_o his_o majesty_n who_o be_v the_o only_a remora_n in_o the_o way_n three_o the_o advantage_n which_o they_o count_v upon_o by_o the_o king_n death_n arise_v not_o only_o from_o their_o assurance_n of_o the_o presumptive_a heir_n be_v a_o papist_n and_o one_o of_o zeal_n and_o ardour_n for_o the_o papal_a chair_n but_o that_o he_o be_v moreover_o under_o the_o conduct_n of_o the_o jesuit_n for_o i_o do_v remember_v that_o father_n

and_o that_o they_o have_v the_o great_a influence_n over_o he_o and_o as_o this_o be_v the_o common_a discourse_n in_o the_o jesuit_n college_n at_o rome_n so_o it_o be_v receive_v with_o great_a
