AS truth is truth those who persist therein are the Sons of God and such as to the contrary go doubtlesly time will show the effects what is due to God let us pay and in what is our Anointed Kings let us obey I am his Subject and renounce his Grace if disloyalty can be laid to my face Religion leads me unto this tenent so should it Man-kind the great Turk hath his Law to keep his Subjects in due awe Give Caesar his due that is the thing from which Loyalty doth spring our Sacred King is just and above all may give the Law to rise or fall in the protection of his true Subjects a true Protestant he is out of all doubt any thinks other is but a Lout Her Gracious good Majesty is our Queen our duty to her should be seen and own'd so as no malignant tongue may not lead us along but into what is just in Religions many opinions there be His Majesty strives to let us see that the Protestant Religion he will uphold if we in duty do not grow cold weowing Allegiance unto our King so let us pay him and his as in true Religion we are bound unto let criminals their fate endure and Innocents receive their cure As so what is it we Subjects can groan under let us but consider and look of our Neighboring Subjects their Poverty Slavery and Misery then look upon the now Subjects of His Sacred Majesties King Charles the second and upon the happiness of his Reign have we wanted either in trade or splendid subsistance when most of the world have been in war and full of misery and our Alarums in breading confusions O the disatisfaction of man when not contented never comprising when he is well this I intend not to prevent or avoid precautions our Sacred King is most certainly our Head and where can lodge his interest surety or safety but in the uphold protection and preservation of his Loyal and good subjects for as he is the Head the Body cannot subsist but in him and by him would not the son and true heir of a Subject think it a hard usage and dealing that he should last the effects of a crime and hazard a conviction therein ere he where summond to appear or answer if this may be allowed how much more doth it regard the true interest of a Prince is undeniable why did Pilate condemn Christ but because he stayed not to hear the truth O what can be said of the times but strange his Royal Highness being brought on the Stage whose Name Fame Glory Vallor and Gallantry hath esclatted through Europe He from his Minority did never refrain from the hazard of his most Royal Person fairly to win all applause nay his subsistance in Foreign Countries what hath not he done for the safety honor and Glorious preservation both by Sea and Land of his Nation and His Sacred Majesties good Subjects If there be any who knoweth not this sure he is a sleep but they are not who are Villains and Impudent Rascals that most libellously set forth in Pamphlets to ecclipse his due and rights such who take that liberty what would they not be at to emote troubles and disturbances in His Majesties Kingdoms and Dominions Were I summond to appear before the face of Justice or Persons in Power I could attest prove that in the year 72. and 73. how some of His Most Excellent Majesties Subjects have been trampling indeavoring and abetting to raise insurrections tumults and disturbances in His Most Excellent Majesties Kingdoms and Dominions to the intent of subverting His Majesties Fundamental Laws and Government and I am ready to prove that his Royal Highness was so much a stranger and unknowing in the said intermedlings as nothing could be more some malignant spirits will sensure what I hear say to be a Paradox to the contrary I am ready to make appear nay more that if the said insurrections had proceeded or gone on I will make out or forse it my head If that his Royal Highness would not be the first that would hazard his Life and person to oppose and suppress the said intendments had I been interrogated when I was in the Moneth of May last 79. summond to appear as I have at the Bar of the Honorable House of Commons as I was before summond nay carried Prisoner to the Black Rod and appeared before their Most Honorable Committee of the House of Lords I would not have stuck to have made mention of what came within my knowledge as I am ready to do and maintain what is here adjoyning set forth in my manifest may I but be allowed the true liberty of a Subject I come not in as an Informer but to pay my Loyalty without pretence of Benefice or Promotion Honor enough I have the mark of which I carry at my Breast for which I have His Majesties of Blessed Memory's Commission to carry wear in any colour Blue Green or Black in the later I do not having never been guilty of any action of the colour for the sins of my Youth I have for which I ask God only pardon As

deserved it that Royal Prince of the Blood his Highness Prince Rupert I am confident vvill please to remember as unto this vvhat I say in my manifest his Highness being the Person that introduced me unto his Majesty upon the top of Edge-hill vvhere his Majesty did then honor me vvith the title of Knight-hood Thousands of Prints are cryed up and down but they will n●t as I do subscribe their names
