The
Treason
of
Doctor
Parrie
against
the
Queenes
Maiestie
.
THe
state
and
condition
of
these
our
daies
(
Christian
Reader
)
is
moste
to
be
lamented
or
rather
to
bee
bewailed
with
bitter
teares
.
Wherin
are
found
such
hollow
harted
,
not
Christians
:
but
Tartarians
and
moste
cruel
vipers
,
whose
properties
as
they
are
to
thirst
after
blood
:
so
they
leaue
no
way
vnattempted
,
no
pollicy
vnassaied
,
nor
any
exploit
vnatchiued
to
bring
their
blood
thirsty
purposes
about
.
The
experiment
wherof
,
although
many
times
heartofore
to
our
great
greef
,
we
haue
tasted
:
yet
now
of
late
to
our
greater
Ieopardie
and
perrill
,
yea
to
our
and
the
whole
Realmes
distruction
,
and
ouerthrowe
for
euer
,
we
should
more
truly
haue
felt
indeed
,
if
this
bloody
purpose
of
the
traiterous
papists
had
not
been
discouered
,
for
the
preuention
heerof
and
al
other
the
like
:
the
Eternall
God
be
praised
.
Now
me
think
I
heare
it
asked
by
whome
this
bloody
deed
or
rather
moste
cruell
Massaker
of
Gods
annointed
,
should
haue
been
committed
.
Truly
by
no
stranger
nor
forriner
but
euen
by
one
of
her
maiesties
owne
natiue
(
but
disloyall
and
moste
vnnaturall
subiect
)
the
trueth
wherof
was
as
followeth
.
One
Doctor
Parrie
Doctor
of
the
Ciuil
Law
being
(
though
beyond
his
deserts
)
very
deer
vnto
her
maiestie
,
and
wel
liked
of
,
was
by
her
grace
sent
ouer
Seas
in
very
waightie
affaires
,
which
he
wel
atchiuing
:
returned
home
and
no
doubt
was
bountefully
rewarded
of
her
grace
for
his
seruice
,
and
paines
sustained
,
within
a
while
after
:
this
doctor
Parrie
vnwoorthy
the
name
of
a
doctor
,
or
of
a
Christian
,
conspired
the
death
of
her
maiestie
,
hauing
receiued
his
fees
of
the
Pope
(
as
it
should
seem
)
for
the
same
.
For
the
accomplishing
of
which
moste
hainous
fact
:
he
with
another
determined
to
kill
her
maiestie
,
sometimes
with
a
Dag
,
sometimes
with
a
Poynado
or
dagger
,
sometime
with
one
thing
and
sometimes
with
an
other
.
Wel
this
platforme
being
laid
,
and
he
hauing
promised
the
Pope
to
performe
the
thing
:
one
of
his
conspirators
through
the
goodnes
of
God
disclosed
the
same
,
which
doon
:
both
he
&
the
said
archtraitor
Parrie
were
both
apprehended
and
committed
,
and
vpon
the
25.
of
Februarie
the
said
Parrie
was
conuaied
from
the
Tower
of
London
to
Westminster
hall
,
where
he
was
arraigned
according
to
the
lawe
in
that
case
prouided
.
The
Pope
that
great
Antechriste
,
and
rose
coullored
whore
of
Roome
,
as
he
suborned
many
heertofore
to
kill
her
maiestie
:
so
he
hired
this
traiterous
villain
Parrie
,
and
therfore
sent
him
a
letter
dated
the
30.
of
Ianuary
1584.
annimating
,
exhorting
,
and
perswading
him
,
as
he
tendered
his
holynes
fauour
:
that
he
would
bring
to
passe
and
performe
this
their
bloody
purpose
,
and
in
so
dooing
he
should
merit
great
thanks
at
his
hands
,
and
to
the
end
he
should
go
forward
in
that
wicked
enterprise
:
he
graunted
him
plenarie
,
absolution
,
indulgence
and
remission
of
sinnes
.
The
which
letter
was
written
by
the
Cardinall
of
Como
.
For
the
further
credit
of
the
thing
it selfe
:
I
haue
heare
set
down
woord
for
woord
,
as
it
was
writ
to
the
said
Parrie

NOw
whose
hart
is
so
stonie
,
that
reading
this
bloody
letter
wil
not
burst
foorth
into
teares
?
See
heer
how
her
grace
was
(
as
it
were
)
bought
and
solde
,
nay
see
how
bloodely
and
how
vnmercifully
they
had
murthered
her
royal
maiesty
in
their
harts
if
their
intended
practises
had
taken
expected
successe
and
effect
.
What
good
subiect
now
,
knowing
the
Pope
and
papists
to
be
the
instruments
of
all
mischeef
,
of
blood
,
and
of
treason
,
wil
not
abhor
and
detest
both
the
one
&
the
other
?
how
many
times
hath
the
Pope
and
papists
practised
her
maiesties
distruction
?
nay
not
onely
the
distruction
of
her
grace
,
but
also
the
ouerthrow
of
the
whole
Realme
,
the
massaker
of
Gods
Saints
,
and
vtter
desolation
for
euer
.
And
how
mercifully
,
or
rather
miraculously
hath
God
preserued
her
grace
,
discouered
their
treasons
,
laid
open
their
conspiracies
,
&
turned
their
inuencions
to
their
owne
deserued
distruction
?
how
merciful
a
watch
man
hath
the
Lord
been
ouer
her
grace
,
her
people
&
Cuntry
these
many
yeers
defending
both
the
one
and
the
other
from
all
mischeef
what
soeuer
?
how
true
is
it
which
is
writen
He
shall
giue
his
Angells
charge
ouer
thee
,
that
thou
dashe
not
thy
foot
against
a
stone
?
The
Lord
continue
watchman
ouer
her
grace
,
stil
confound
her
foes
and
preserue
her
maiesty
for
euer
.
God
graunt
that
her
maiesty
with
her
moste
honorable
counsaile
,
may
sound
the
depth
of
these
things
and
preuent
them
in
time
,
for
the
performance
wherof
:
would
god
papistry
might
be
punished
with
death
(
as
it
ought
to
be
)
and
that
al
obstinate
papists
might
sustaine
the
same
punishments
which
traitors
are
to
sustaine
,
for
take
this
for
a
Maxime
,
that
all
papists
are
traitors
in
their
harts
,
how
soeuer
otherwise
they
beare
the
world
in
hand
.
And
therfore
how
many
papists
her
grace
hath
in
the
Land
:
so
many
deaths
,
may
she
feare
.
God
graunt
that
this
high
Court
of
Parliament
may
see
to
this
geare
.
For
shall
it
be
lawful
for
the
papists
to
put
to
death
true
professors
of
Gods
woord
without
lawe
,
without
reason
,
without
concience
,
or
warrant
of
the
woord
of
God
and
shall
it
not
be
lawful
for
vs
to
inflict
the
punishment
of
death
vpon
them
beeing
traitors
to
God
,
their
Prince
and
cuntry
,
hauing
the
law
of
God
vpon
our
side
,
reason
,
good
concience
,
and
els
what
soeuer
?
Wel
how
soeuer
we
perswade
our selues
,
this
is
certain
,
that
blood
,
treason
,
rebellion
,
insurrections
commotions
,
mutenies
,
murther
,
and
the
like
are
the
badges
and
cognizaunce
of
them
,
and
of
that
wicked
generation
,
and
let
vs
look
for
it
,
they
wil
be
pricks
vnto
our
eyes
,
whips
vnto
our
backs
,
and
kniues
to
cut
our
throts
withall
if
time
would
serue
them
,
which
I
pray
God
neuer
doo
.
In
conclusion
,
in
as
much
as
it
hath
pleased
the
maiestie
of
our
good
God
in
mercy
to
preserue
her
grace
heertofore
and
especially
at
this
time
,
not
only
from
imminent
daugers
:
but
euen
from
present
death
it self
.
I
beseech
all
true
Christian
hartes
and
loouing
subiects
euen
in
the
bowells
of
Iesus
Christe
,
to
rest
thankfull
to
God
for
it
,
and
to
pray
to
God
to
preserue
her
grace
still
,
and
confound
her
foes
and
to
bring
to
light
all
●●easons
and
conspiraces
what
soeuer
shall
be
intended
against
her
Maiestie
,
that
peace
may
bee
in
Israell
,
vnto
the
end
of
the
world
.
And
in
the
end
when
she
must
yeeld
to
nature
to
receiue
her
into
his
euerlasting
kingdome
,
crowning
her
with
the
immercessible
Crowne
and
moste
glorious
Diadem
of
eternal
glory
Amen
.
