Such a dispensation did Pope Pius lately send into England, and discharged the Subjects from their due obedience to our Prince, and thereby made way for them, with his favour and licence to run headlong into everlasting damnation. With some weak heads he hath prevailed. It is likely he hath used secrete conference with them some long time, before they would be drawn to be traitors to their own country, and be emboldened to put themselves in armour, and rob, and spoil, & burn, and kill their country men, & friends, and kinsfolks, and children, and parents against the law of nature, and the commandment of God.

This was done not long sithence. You can not but remember it, they were in arms, and had gathered a great company ⟨p. 105⟩of Confederates: the banner was displayed in field. What think you was their meaning? Or to what end did they rise? Among all those that live within this realm, whose person sought they? against whom bent they their spears? And against whose body drew they their swords? But the Lord preserved his anointed: he hath placed her upon his holy hill of Zion: no traitorous malice shall annoy her.
