I find Bishop Gunnings Chaplain thinks that he doth say well, when he saith, that [Not ⟨p. 48⟩only Murderers, Adulterers, Drunkards, but such Schismatics as disturb the peace, and weaken the authority of the Churches Discipline (theirs) are to be excommunicated and reckoned among Heathens and Publicans; and Enemies to the Gospel of Christ (if they preach it without a Diocesans license.) p. 214. And that it is already our case, that it's a very difficult matter to find a Jury and Witnesses especially among the Dissenters, upon whose credit we may rely.) All this signifieth how little blind Faction is to be believed, and how far it conquereth even humane modesty and veracity: But yet I difference it from the Enmity to Godliness which I speak of. And that you may see that he is no Papist, though for a Foreign Jurisdiction, he tells you of Cromwell that [There is too great, reason to suspect that he intended to settle Popery in the Nation, when matters had been ripe to go through with it.] I confess this is news to me: I have roundly told him to his face of his Disloyalty in deposing our English Monarchy, and told the world then of his treacherous Usurpation, but it never came into my thoughts that he intended to settle Popery in the Nation. But if these words come from Clergy Truth and Modesty, they are very considerable. I hope the old Royalists will be against Popery the more if Cromwell was for it: And the Papists I hope will be no more angry with Dr. Moulin that answereth Philanax Anglicus, for making ⟨p. 49⟩the Kings death to be caused and concluded by the Papists, if Cromwell was for them. But Faction will face men down, that Snow is black.
