Hard
Measure

NOTHING
could
be
more
Plain
,
than
that
upon
the
Call
of
this
Parliament
,
and
before
,
there
was
a
general
Plot
and
Resolution
of
the
Faction
to
alter
the
Government
of
the
Church
especially
,
the
height
and
insolency
of
some
Church-governors
,
as
was
conceived
,
and
the
ungrounded
imposition
of
some
Innovations
upon
the
Churches
,
both
of
Scotland
and
England
,
gave
a
fit
Hint
to
the
Project
:
In
the
vacancy
therefore
before
the
Summons
,
and
immediately
after
it
,
there
was
great
working
secretly
for
the
Designation
and
Election
as
of
Knights
and
Burgesses
,
so
especially
(
beyond
all
former
Use
)
of
the
Clerks
of
Convocation
;
when
now
the
Clergy
were
stirred
up
to
contest
with
,
and
oppose
their
Diocesans
,
for
the
Choice
of
such
Men
as
were
most
inclined
to
the
favour
of
an
Alteration
.
The
Parliament
was
no
sooner
sate
,
than
many
vehement
Speeches
were
made
against
established
Church-government
,
and
enforcement
of
Extirpation
both
Root
and
Branch
.
And
because
it
was
not
fit
to
set
upon
all
at
once
,
the
resolution
was
to
begin
with
those
Bishops
which
had
subscribed
to
the
Canons
then
lately
published
,
upon
the
shutting
up
of
the
former
Parliament
,
whom
they
would
first
have
had
accused
of
Treason
;
but
that
not
appearing
feisible
,
they
thought
best
to
Indite
them
of
very
High
Crimes
and
Offences
against
the
King
,
the
Parliament
,
and
Kingdom
,
which
was
prosecuted
with
great
earnestness
by
some
prime
Lawyers
in
the
House
of
Commons
,
and
entertained
with
like
fervency
by
some
zealous
Lords
in
the
House
of
Peers
;
every
of
those
particular
Canons
being
pressed
to
the
most
envious
and
dangerous
height
that
was
possible
.
The
Arch-bishop
of
York
(
was
designed
for
the
Report
)
aggravating
Mr.
Maynard's
Criminations
to
the
utmost
,
not
without
some
Interspersions
of
his
own
.
The
Counsel
of
the
accused
Bishops
,
gave
in
such
a
demurring
Answer
,
as
stopt
the
Mouth
of
that
heinous
Indictment
:
When
this
prevailed
not
,
it
was
contrived
to
draw
Petitions
accusatory
from
many
parts
of
the
Kingdom
against
Episcopal
Government
,
and
the
Promoters
of
the
Petitions
were
entertained
with
great
Respects
;
whereas
the
many
Petitioners
of
the
opposite
Part
,
tho
subscribed
with
many
thousand
Hands
,
were
slighted
and
disregarded
.
Withal
,
the
Rabble
of
London
,
after
their
Petitions
,
cunningly
and
upon
other
Pretences
procured
,
were
stirred
up
to
come
to
the
Houses
personally
to
crave
Justice
,
both
against
the
Earl
of
Strafford
first
,
and
then
against
the
Arch-bishop
of
Canterbury
,
and
lastly
against
the
whole
Order
of
Bishops
;
which
coming
at
first
unarm'd
,
were
checked
by
some
Well-willers
,
and
easily
perswaded
to
gird
on
their
rusty
Swords
,
and
so
Accoutred
came
by
Thousands
to
the
Houses
,
filling
all
the
outer
Rooms
,
offering
foul
Abuses
to
the
Bishops
as
they
passed
,
crying
out
,
No
Bishops
,
No
Bishops
;
and
at
last
,
after
divers
Days
assembling
,
grown
to
that
height
of
Fury
,
that
many
of
them
,
whereof
Sir
Richard
Wiseman
professed
(
tho
to
his
Cost
)
to
be
Captain
,
came
with
Resolution
of
some
violent
Courses
,
in
so
much
,
that
many
Swords
were
drawn
hereupon
at
Westminster
,
and
the
Rout
did
not
stick
openly
to
Profess
,
that
they
would
pull
the
Bishops
in
pieces
.
Messages
were
sent
down
to
them
from
the
Lords
,
they
still
held
firm
both
to
the
place
and
their
bloody
Resolutions
.
It
now
grew
to
be
Torch-light
,
one
of
the
Lords
,
the
Marquess
of
Hartford
,
came
up
to
the
Bishops
Form
,
told
us
that
we
were
in
great
Danger
,
advised
us
to
take
some
course
for
our
own
Safety
,
and
being
desir'd
to
tell
us
what
he
thought
was
the
best
way
,
counselled
us
to
continue
in
the
Parliament
House
all
that
Night
;
for
(
saith
he
)
these
People
Vow
they
will
watch
you
at
your
going
out
,
and
will
search
every
Coach
for
you
with
Torches
,
so
as
you
cannot
escape
.
Hereupon
the
House
of
Lords
was
moved
for
some
Order
for
the
preventing
their
mutinous
and
riotous
Meetings
;
Messages
were
sent
down
to
the
House
of
Commons
to
this
purpose
more
than
once
,
nothing
was
effected
;
but
for
the
present
(
for
so
much
as
all
the
Danger
was
at
the
rising
of
the
House
)
it
was
earnestly
desired
of
the
Lords
,
that
some
Care
might
be
taken
of
our
Safety
:
The
Motion
was
received
by
some
Lords
with
a
Smile
,
some
other
Lords
,
as
the
Earl
of
Manchester
,
undertook
the
Protection
of
the
Archbishop
of
York
and
his
Company
(
whose
Shelter
I
went
under
)
to
their
Lodgings
;
the
rest
,
some
of
them
by
their
long
stay
,
others
by
secret
and
far-fetch'd
Passages
escaped
Home
.
It
was
not
for
us
to
venture
any
more
to
the
House
without
some
better
Assurance
;
upon
our
resolved
for
bearance
therefore
,
the
Arch-bishop
of
York
sent
for
us
to
his
Lodgings
at
Westminster
,
laies
before
us
the
perillous
Condition
we
were
in
,
Advises
for
Remedy
(
except
we
meant
utterly
to
abandon
our
Right
,
and
to
desert
our
Station
in
Parliament
)
to
Petition
both
his
Majesty
and
the
Parliament
,
that
since
we
were
legally
call'd
by
his
Majesty's
Writ
,
to
give
our
Attendance
in
Parliament
,
we
might
be
secured
in
the
performance
of
our
Duty
and
Service
against
those
Dangers
that
threatned
us
;
and
withal
,
to
protest
against
any
such
Acts
as
should
be
made
during
the
time
of
our
forced
Absence
,
for
which
he
assured
us
,
there
were
many
Presidents
in
former
Parliaments
,
and
which
if
we
did
not
,
we
should
betray
the
Trust
committed
to
us
by
his
Majesty
,
and
shamefully
betray
and
abdicate
the
due
Right
,
both
of
our Selves
and
Successors
.
To
this
Purpose
,
in
our
Presence
,
he
drew
up
the
said
Petition
and
Protestation
,
avowing
it
to
be
Legal
,
Just
and
Agreeable
to
all
former
Proceedings
,
and
being
fair
written
,
sent
it
to
our
several
Lodgings
for
our
Hands
,
which
we
accordingly
Subscribed
,
intending
yet
to
have
had
some
further
Consultation
concerning
the
Delivering
and
whole
Carriage
of
it
.
But
'
ere
we
could
suppose
it
to
be
in
any
Hand
but
his
own
,
the
first
News
we
heard
,
was
,
that
there
were
Messengers
addressed
to
fetch
us
in
to
the
Parliament
,
upon
an
Accusation
of
High
Treason
.
For
,
whereas
this
Paper
was
to
have
been
delivered
,
first
to
his
Majesty's
Secretary
;
and
after
perusal
by
him
,
to
his
Majesty
,
and
after
,
from
his
Majesty
,
to
the
Parliament
,
and
for
that
Purpose
,
to
the
Lord
Keeper
,
the
Lord
Littleton
,
who
was
the
Speaker
of
the
House
of
Peers
;
all
these
Professed
not
to
have
perused
it
at
all
,
but
the
said
Lord
Keeper
,
willing
enough
to
take
this
Advantage
of
Ingratiating
himself
with
the
House
of
Commons
and
the
Faction
,
to
which
he
knew
himself
sufficiently
Obnoxious
,
finding
what
Use
might
be
made
of
it
by
prejudicate
Minds
,
reads
the
same
openly
in
the
House
of
Lords
;
and
when
he
found
some
of
the
Faction
Apprehensive
enough
of
Misconstruction
,
Aggravates
the
Matter
as
highly
Offensive
,
and
of
dangerous
Consequence
;
and
thereupon
,
not
without
much
Heat
and
Vehemence
,
and
with
an
ill
Preface
,
it
is
sent
down
to
the
House
of
Commons
;
where
it
was
entertained
hainously
,
Glynne
,
with
a
full
Mouth
,
crying
it
up
for
no
less
than
High
Treason
;
and
some
comparing
,
yea
,
preferring
it
to
the
Powder-plot
.
We
,
poor
Souls
,
(
who
little
thought
that
we
had
done
any
thing
that
might
deserve
a
chiding
)
are
now
called
to
our
Knees
at
the
Bar
,
and
charged
severally
with
High
Treason
,
being
not
a
little
Astonished
at
the
suddainness
of
this
Crimination
,
compared
with
the
perfect
Innocence
of
our
own
Intentions
,
which
were
only
to
bring
us
to
our
due
Places
in
Parliament
with
safety
and
speed
,
without
the
least
purpose
of
any
Mans
Offence
:
But
now
Traytors
we
are
in
all
hast
,
and
must
be
dealt
with
accordingly
;
For
on
January
the
30th
,
in
all
the
extremity
of
Frost
,
at
Eight
a
Clock
in
the
dark
Evening
,
are
we
voted
to
the
Tower
;
Only
two
of
our
Number
had
the
favour
of
the
Black
Rod
,
by
reason
of
their
Age
,
which
,
tho
desired
by
a
Noble
Lord
,
on
my
behalf
,
would
not
be
yielded
,
wherein
I
acknowledge
,
and
bless
the
Gracious
Providence
of
my
God
,
for
had
I
been
gratified
,
I
had
been
undone
both
in
Body
and
Purse
;
the
Rooms
being
strait
,
and
the
Expence
beyond
the
reach
of
my
Estate
;
The
News
of
this
our
Crime
and
Imprisonment
,
soon
flew
over
the
City
,
and
was
entertained
by
our
Well-willers
,
with
ringing
of
Bells
and
Bonfires
;
who
now
gave
us
up
(
not
without
great
Triumph
)
for
lost
Men
,
railing
on
our
Perfidiousness
,
and
judging
us
to
what
foul
Deaths
they
pleased
;
and
what
scurrile
and
malicious
Pamphlets
were
scattered
Abroad
throughout
the
Kingdom
,
and
in
Foreign
Parts
,
blazoning
our
Infamy
,
and
exaggerating
our
Treasonable
Practices
?
What
Insultations
of
our
Adversaries
was
here
?
Being
Caged
sure
enough
in
the
Tower
,
the
Faction
had
now
fair
Opportunities
to
work
their
own
Designs
,
they
therefore
taking
the
Advantage
of
our
Restraint
,
renew
that
Bill
of
theirs
,
(
which
had
been
twice
before
rejected
since
the
beginning
of
this
Session
)
for
taking
away
the
Votes
of
Bishops
in
Parliament
,
and
in
a
very
thin
House
,
easily
passed
it
:
Which
once
condescended
unto
,
I
know
not
by
what
strong
Importunity
,
His
Majesty's
Assent
was
drawn
from
him
thereunto
;
we
now
,
instead
of
looking
after
our
wonted
Honour
,
must
bend
our
Thoughts
upon
the
guarding
of
our
Lives
,
which
were
with
no
small
eagerness
pursued
,
by
the
violent
Agents
of
the
Faction
.
Their
sharpest
Wits
,
and
greatest
Lawyers
,
were
imployed
to
advance
our
Impeachment
to
the
height
;
but
the
more
they
look'd
into
the
Business
,
the
less
Crime
could
they
find
to
fasten
upon
:
In
so
much
,
as
one
of
their
Oracle
,
being
demanded
his
Judgment
concerning
the
Fact
,
professed
to
them
,
they
might
with
as
good
Reason
accuse
us
of
Adultery
:
Yet
still
there
are
we
fast
;
only
upon
Petition
to
the
Lords
,
obtaining
this
Favour
,
that
we
might
have
Counsel
Assigned
us
;
which
,
after
much
Reluctation
,
and
many
Menaces
from
the
Commons
against
any
Man
of
all
the
Commoners
of
England
,
that
should
dare
to
be
seen
to
Plead
in
this
Case
,
against
the
representative
Body
of
the
Commons
,
was
granted
us
;
the
Lords
Assigned
us
five
very
worthy
Lawyers
,
which
were
nominated
to
them
by
us
;
what
Trouble
and
Charge
it
was
to
procure
those
eminent
and
much
employed
Counsellors
to
come
to
the
Tower
to
us
,
and
to
observe
the
strict
Laws
of
the
Place
,
for
the
time
of
their
Ingress
,
Regress
and
Stay
,
it
is
not
hard
to
Judge
.
After
we
had
lain
some
Weeks
there
,
however
the
House
of
Commons
,
upon
the
first
tender
of
our
Impeachment
,
had
desired
we
might
be
brought
to
a
speedy
Trial
,
yet
,
now
,
finding
be
like
how
little
ground
they
had
for
so
high
an
Accusation
,
they
began
to
slack
their
Pace
,
and
suffered
us
,
rather
to
languish
under
the
fear
of
so
dreadful
Arraignment
.
In
so
much
as
now
we
are
fain
to
Petition
the
Lords
,
that
we
might
be
brought
to
our
Trial
:
The
Day
was
set
,
several
Summons
were
sent
unto
us
;
the
Lieutenant
had
his
Warrant
to
bring
us
to
the
Bar
;
Our
Impeachment
was
severally
Read
;
we
pleaded
not
Guilty
Modo
&
Forma
,
and
desired
speedy
Proceedings
,
which
were
accordingly
promised
,
but
not
too
hastily
performed
.
After
long
Expectation
,
another
Day
was
appointed
for
the
Prosecution
of
this
high
Charge
.
The
Lieutenant
brought
us
again
to
the
Bar
;
but
with
what
Shoutings
,
and
Exclamations
,
and
furious
Expressions
of
the
enraged
Multitudes
,
it
is
not
easie
to
Apprehend
;
being
thither
brought
,
and
severally
charged
upon
our
Knees
,
and
having
given
our
Negative
Answers
to
every
Particular
,
Two
Bishops
,
London
and
Winchester
,
were
call'd
in
as
Witnesses
against
us
,
as
in
that
Point
,
whether
they
apprehended
any
such
Cause
of
Fears
in
the
Tumults
Assembled
,
as
that
we
were
in
any
danger
of
our
Lives
in
coming
to
the
Parliament
;
who
seemed
to
incline
to
a
favourable
Report
of
the
Perils
threatned
,
tho
one
of
them
was
convinced
,
out
of
his
own
mouth
,
from
the
Relations
himself
had
made
at
the
Arch-bishop
of
York's
Lodging
.
After
this
,
Wild
and
Glyn
made
fearful
Declamations
at
the
Bar
against
us
,
aggravating
all
the
Circumstances
of
our
pretended
Treason
to
the
highest
Pitch
.
Our
Counsel
were
all
ready
at
the
Bar
,
to
plead
for
us
,
in
Answer
of
their
clamorous
and
envious
Suggestions
;
But
it
was
Answered
,
that
it
was
now
too
late
,
we
should
have
another
Day
,
which
Day
,
to
this
Day
,
never
came
;
the
Circumstances
of
that
Day's
hearing
,
were
more
Grievous
to
us
than
the
Substance
;
for
we
were
all
throng'd
so
miserably
in
that
strait
Room
before
the
Bar
,
by
Reason
,
that
the
whole
House
of
Commons
would
be
there
to
see
the
Prizes
of
their
Champions
plaid
;
that
we
stood
the
whole
Afternoon
in
no
small
Torture
,
sweating
and
strugling
with
a
Merciless
Multitude
,
till
being
dismissed
,
we
were
exposed
to
a
new
and
greater
Danger
.
For
now
,
in
the
Dark
,
we
must
to
the
Tower
,
by
Barge
,
as
we
came
,
and
must
shoot
the
Bridge
with
no
small
Perill
.
That
God
,
under
whose
Merciful
Protection
we
are
,
returned
us
to
our
safe
Custody
:
There
now
we
lay
some
Weeks
longer
,
expecting
the
Summons
for
our
Counsels
Answer
;
but
instead
thereof
,
our
Merciful
Adversaries
,
well
finding
how
sure
they
would
be
Foyl'd
in
that
unjust
Charge
of
Treason
,
now
under
Pretences
of
remitting
the
height
of
Rigour
,
wave
their
former
Impeachment
of
Treason
against
us
,
and
fall
upon
an
Accusation
of
High
Misdemeanors
in
that
our
Protestation
,
and
will
have
us
prosecuted
as
Guilty
of
a
Premunire
:
altho
,
as
we
conceive
,
the
Law
hath
ever
been
in
the
Parliamentary
Proceedings
,
that
if
a
Man
were
Impeached
,
as
of
Treason
,
being
the
highest
Crime
,
the
Accusant
must
hold
him
to
the
Proof
of
the
Charge
,
and
may
not
fall
to
any
meaner
Impeachment
upon
failing
of
higher
.
But
in
this
Case
of
ours
,
it
fell
out
otherwise
,
for
although
the
Lords
had
openly
promised
us
,
that
nothing
should
be
done
against
us
,
till
we
and
our
Council
were
heard
in
our
defence
,
yet
the
next
News
we
heard
was
,
the
House
of
Commons
had
drawn
up
a
Bill
against
us
,
wherein
they
declared
us
to
be
Delinquents
of
a
very
high
Nature
,
and
had
thereupon
desired
to
have
it
enacted
that
all
our
spiritual
Means
should
be
taken
away
:
Only
there
should
be
Yearly
allowance
to
every
Bishop
for
his
Maintenance
according
to
a
proportion
by
them
set
down
;
wherein
they
were
pleased
that
my
share
should
come
to
400
l.
per
Annum
.
This
Bill
was
sent
up
to
the
Lords
and
by
them
also
passed
,
and
there
hath
ever
since
lain
;
this
being
done
,
after
some
weeks
more
,
finding
the
Tower
,
besides
the
Restraint
,
chargeable
;
we
petitioned
the
Lords
,
that
we
might
be
admitted
to
Bail
,
and
have
liberty
to
return
to
our
Homes
,
the
Earl
of
Essex
moved
,
the
Lords
Assented
,
took
our
Bail
,
sent
to
the
Lieutenant
of
the
Tower
for
our
discharge
:
How
glad
were
we
to
flie
out
of
our
Cage
?
No
sooner
was
I
got
to
my
Lodging
,
than
I
thought
to
take
a
little
fresh
Air
,
in
St.
James's
Park
;
and
in
my
return
to
my
Lodging
in
Deans
yard
passing
through
Westminster
Hall
,
was
saluted
by
divers
of
my
Parliament
acquantaince
,
and
welcomed
to
my
Liberty
,
whereupon
some
that
look
't
upon
me
with
an
evil
Eye
run
into
the
House
,
and
complained
that
the
Bishops
were
let
Loose
,
which
it
seems
was
not
well
taken
by
the
House
of
Commons
,
who
presently
sent
a
kind
of
an
expostulation
to
the
Lords
,
that
they
had
dismissed
so
hainous
Offenders
without
their
knowledge
and
consent
;
Scarce
had
I
rested
in
my
Lodging
,
when
there
comes
a
Messenger
to
me
with
the
sad
news
of
sending
me
and
therest
of
my
Brethren
the
Bishops
back
to
the
Tower
again
;
from
whence
we
came
,
thither
we
must
go
,
and
thither
I
went
,
with
an
heavy
(
but
I
thank
God
not
impatient
)
Heart
.
After
we
had
continued
there
some
six
weeks
longer
,
and
earnestly
Petitioned
to
return
to
our
several
Charges
we
were
upon
5000
l.
Bond
dismissed
,
with
a
Clause
of
Revocation
at
a
short
warning
,
if
occasion
should
be
required
.
Thus
having
spent
the
Time
betwixt
New
years
Even
and
Whitsuntide
in
those
safe
Walls
,
where
we
by
turnes
preached
every
Lords
Day
to
a
large
Auditory
of
Citizens
,
we
disposed
of
our selves
to
the
places
of
our
several
abode
.
For
my self
,
addressing
my self
to
Norwich
,
whether
it
was
his
Majesties
Pleasure
to
remove
me
,
I
was
at
the
first
received
with
more
respect
,
than
in
such
times
I
could
have
expected
;
there
I
preach'd
the
day
after
my
Arrival
to
a
numerous
and
attentive
People
:
neither
was
sparing
of
my
pains
in
this
kind
ever
since
,
till
the
Times
growing
every
day
more
impatient
of
a
Bishop
,
threatned
my
silencing
.
There
though
with
some
secret
Murmurs
of
disaffected
Persons
,
I
enjoyed
peace
till
the
Ordinance
of
Sequestration
came
forth
,
which
was
in
the
latter
end
of
March
following
,
then
when
I
was
in
hopes
of
receiving
the
profits
of
the
foregoing
half
Year
,
for
the
Maintainance
of
my
Family
,
were
all
my
Rents
stopped
and
diverted
,
and
in
April
following
came
the
Sequestrators
,
viz.
Mr.
Sotherton
,
Mr.
Tooly
,
Mr.
Rowly
,
Mr.
Greenwood
,
&c.
to
the
palace
,
and
told
me
that
by
Vertue
of
an
Ordinance
of
Parliament
they
must
seize
upon
the
Palace
,
and
all
the
Estate
I
had
,
both
Real
and
Personal
,
and
accordingly
sent
certain
Men
appointed
by
them
(
whereof
one
had
been
burnt
of
the
Hand
for
the
Mark
of
his
Truth
,
)
to
appraise
all
the
Goods
that
were
in
the
House
,
which
they
accordingly
executed
with
all
diligent
severity
,
not
leaving
so
much
as
a
dozen
of
Trenchers
,
or
my
Childrens
Pictures
out
of
their
curious
Inventory
.
Yea
,
they
would
have
appraised
our
very
wearing
Cloaths
,
had
not
Alderman
Tooly
,
and
Sheriff
Rawley
(
to
whom
I
sent
to
require
their
Judgment
concerning
the
Ordinance
in
this
point
)
declared
their
opinion
to
the
contrary
.
These
Goods
,
both
Library
and
Houshould
Stuff
of
all
kinds
,
were
appointed
to
be
exposed
to
publick
Sale
.
Much
inquiry
there
was
when
the
Goods
should
be
brought
to
the
Market
;
but
in
the
mean
time
Mrs.
Goodwin
,
a
Religious
good
Gentlewoman
,
whom
yet
we
had
never
known
or
seen
,
being
moved
with
compassion
,
very
kindly
offered
to
lay
down
to
the
Sequestrators
that
whole
Sum
which
the
Goods
were
valued
at
;
And
was
pleased
to
leave
them
in
our
own
Hands
for
our
use
,
Till
we
might
be
able
to
repurchase
them
,
which
she
did
accordingly
,
and
had
the
goods
formally
delivered
to
her
by
Mr.
Smith
,
and
Mr.
Greenwood
,
two
Sequestrators
.
As
for
the
Books
,
several
Stationers
lookt
on
them
,
but
were
not
forward
to
buy
them
;
at
last
Mr.
Cook
,
a
worthy
Divine
of
this
Diocess
,
gave
Bond
to
the
Sequestrators
,
to
pay
to
them
the
whole
Sum
whereat
they
were
set
,
which
was
afterwards
satisfied
out
of
that
poor
Pittance
,
that
was
allowed
me
for
my
Maintenance
;
as
for
my
Evidences
they
required
them
from
me
,
I
denied
them
,
as
not
holding
my self
bound
to
deliver
them
:
They
Nail'd
,
and
Seal'd
up
the
Door
,
and
took
such
as
they
found
with
me
.
But
before
this
,
the
first
noise
that
I
heard
of
my
Trouble
was
,
that
one
Morning
,
before
my
servants
were
up
,
there
came
to
my
Gates
one
Wright
,
a
London
Trooper
,
attended
with
others
,
requiring
entrance
,
threatning
,
if
they
were
not
admitted
,
to
break
open
the
Gates
;
whom
I
found
at
my
first
sight
struggling
with
one
of
my
Servants
for
a
Pistol
,
which
he
had
in
his
Hand
;
I
demanded
his
Business
at
that
unseasonable
Time
;
he
told
me
,
he
came
to
search
for
Arms
and
Ammunition
,
of
which
I
must
be
disarm'd
;
I
told
him
I
had
only
two
Muskets
in
the
House
,
and
no
other
Military
Provision
;
he
not
resting
upon
my
word
search'd
round
about
the
House
,
look'd
into
the
Chests
,
and
Trunks
,
examined
the
Vessels
in
the
Cellar
,
finding
no
other
Warlike
Furniture
,
he
askt
me
what
Horses
I
had
,
for
his
Commission
was
to
take
them
also
;
I
told
him
how
poorly
I
was
Stored
,
and
that
my
Age
would
not
allow
me
to
travel
on
Foot
;
in
conclusion
he
took
one
Horse
for
the
present
,
and
such
account
of
another
,
that
he
did
highly
expostulate
with
me
afterwards
,
that
I
had
otherwise
disposed
of
him
.
Now
,
not
only
my
Rents
present
,
but
the
Arrerages
of
the
former
Years
,
which
I
had
in
Favour
forborn
to
some
Tenants
,
being
treacherously
confessed
to
the
Sequestrators
,
were
by
them
called
for
,
and
taken
from
me
;
neither
was
there
any
Course
at
all
taken
for
my
Maintenance
;
I
therefore
Addressed
my self
to
the
Committee
sitting
here
at
Norwich
,
and
desired
them
to
give
Order
for
some
Means
,
out
of
that
large
Patrimony
of
the
Church
,
to
be
allowed
me
.
They
all
thought
it
very
just
,
and
there
being
present
Sir
Tho
.
Woodhouse
,
and
Sir
John
Potts
,
Parliament
men
;
it
was
moved
,
and
held
fit
by
them
and
the
rest
,
that
the
Proportion
which
the
Votes
of
the
Parliament
had
pitch'd
upon
,
Viz
.
400
l.
per
Annum
;
should
be
allowed
to
me
.
My
Lord
of
Manchester
,
who
was
then
conceived
to
have
great
Power
in
matter
of
these
Sequestrations
,
was
moved
herewith
;
He
apprehended
it
very
Just
and
Reasonable
,
and
wrote
to
the
Committee
here
to
set
out
so
many
of
the
Mannors
belonging
to
this
Bishoprick
as
should
amount
to
the
said
Sum
of
400
l.
Annually
,
which
was
answerably
done
under
the
Hands
of
the
whole
Table
.
And
now
I
well
hoped
,
I
should
yet
have
a
good
Competency
of
Maintenance
out
of
that
plentiful
Estate
which
I
might
have
had
:
But
those
Hopes
were
no
sooner
conceived
then
dash'd
;
for
before
I
could
gather
up
one
Quarters
Rent
,
there
comes
down
an
Order
from
the
Committee
for
Sequestrations
above
,
under
the
hand
of
Serjeant
Wild
the
Chair-man
,
procured
by
Mr.
Miles
Corbet
,
to
inhibit
any
such
Allowance
;
and
telling
our
Committee
here
,
that
neither
They
,
nor
any
other
had
Power
to
allow
me
any
thing
at
all
:
But
if
my
Wife
found
her self
to
need
a
Maintenance
,
upon
her
Suit
to
the
Committee
of
Lords
and
Commons
,
it
might
be
granted
,
that
She
might
have
a
fifth
Part
,
according
to
the
Ordinance
,
allowed
for
the
Sustentation
of
her Self
,
and
her
Family
.
Hereupon
she
sends
a
Petition
to
that
Committee
,
which
,
after
a
long
Delay
,
was
admitted
to
be
read
,
and
an
Order
granted
for
the
fifth
Part
:
But
still
the
Rents
and
Revenues
,
both
of
my
Spiritual
and
Temporal
Lands
were
taken
up
by
the
Sequestrators
,
both
in
Norfolk
,
and
Suffolk
,
and
Esvex
,
and
we
kept
off
from
either
Allowance
or
Accompt
.
At
last
,
upon
much
pressing
,
Beadle
the
Solicitor
,
and
Rust
the
Collector
,
brought
in
an
Account
to
the
Committee
,
such
as
it
was
;
but
so
Confused
and
Perplexed
,
and
so
utterly
imperfect
,
that
we
could
never
come
to
know
what
a
fifth
Part
meant
:
But
they
were
content
,
that
I
should
eat
my
Books
,
by
setting
off
the
Sum
engaged
for
them
out
of
the
fifth
Part
.
Mean
time
,
the
Synodals
,
both
in
Norfolk
and
Suffolk
,
and
all
the
Spiritual
Profits
of
the
Diocess
,
were
also
kept
back
,
only
Ordinations
and
Institutions
continued
a
while
.
But
after
the
Covenant
was
appointed
to
be
taken
,
and
was
generally
swallowed
of
both
Clergy
and
Laity
,
my
Power
of
Ordination
was
with
some
strange
Violence
restrained
;
For
when
I
was
going
on
in
my
wonted
Course
(
which
no
Law
or
Ordinance
had
inhibited
)
certain
forward
Voluntiers
in
the
City
,
banding
together
,
stir
up
the
Mayor
,
and
Aldermen
,
and
Sheriffs
,
to
call
me
to
an
Account
for
an
open
Violation
of
their
Covenant
.
To
this
purpose
divers
of
them
came
to
my
Gates
at
a
very
unseasonable
time
,
and
knocking
very
vehemently
,
required
to
speak
with
the
Bishop
;
Messages
were
sent
to
them
,
to
know
their
Busienss
,
nothing
would
satisfie
them
but
the
Bishop's
Presence
,
at
last
I
came
down
to
them
,
and
demanded
what
the
Matter
was
;
they
would
have
the
Gate
opened
,
and
then
they
would
tell
me
;
I
answered
,
that
I
would
know
them
better
first
:
If
they
had
any
thing
to
say
to
me
,
I
was
ready
to
hear
them
;
they
told
,
me
they
had
a
writing
to
me
from
Mr.
Mayor
,
and
some
other
of
their
Magistrates
;
the
Paper
contained
both
a
challenge
of
me
for
breaking
the
Covenant
,
in
Ordaining
Ministers
;
and
withal
required
me
to
give
in
the
Names
of
those
which
were
Ordained
by
me
,
both
then
and
formerly
since
the
Covenant
:
My
Answer
was
,
that
Mr.
Mayor
was
much
abused
by
those
who
misinform'd
him
,
and
drawn
that
Paper
from
him
;
that
I
would
the
next
Day
give
a
full
Answer
to
the
writing
,
they
moved
that
my
Answer
might
be
by
my
Personal
Appearance
at
the
Guild-hall
;
I
ask'd
them
when
they
ever
heard
of
a
Bishop
of
Norwich
appearing
before
a
Mayor
,
I
knew
mine
own
Place
,
and
I
would
take
that
way
of
answer
which
I
thought
fit
,
and
so
dismissed
them
,
who
had
given
out
that
Day
,
that
had
they
known
before
of
mine
ordaining
,
they
would
have
pull'd
me
and
those
whom
I
ordained
out
of
the
Chappel
by
the
Ears
.
Whilst
I
received
nothing
,
yet
something
was
required
of
me
;
they
were
not
ashamed
after
they
had
taken
away
,
and
sold
all
my
Goods
and
personal
Estate
,
to
come
to
me
for
assesments
,
and
monthly
Payments
for
that
Estate
which
they
had
taken
,
and
took
Distresses
from
me
upon
my
most
just
Denial
,
and
vehemently
required
me
to
find
the
wonted
Arms
of
my
Predecessors
,
when
they
had
left
me
nothing
:
Many
insolencies
and
affronts
were
in
all
this
time
put
upon
us
.
One
while
a
whole
Rabble
of
Voluntiers
came
to
my
Gates
late
,
when
they
were
locked
up
,
and
call'd
for
the
Porter
to
give
them
Entrance
,
which
being
not
yielded
,
they
threatned
to
make
Way
by
Force
,
and
had
not
the
said
Gates
been
very
Strong
they
had
done
it
:
Others
of
them
clambred
over
the
Walls
,
and
would
come
into
mine
House
,
their
Errand
(
they
said
)
was
to
search
for
Delinquents
,
what
they
would
have
done
I
know
not
,
Had
not
we
by
a
secret
way
sent
to
raise
the
Officers
for
our
Rescue
:
Another
while
the
Sheriff
Toftes
,
and
Alderman
Linsey
,
attended
with
many
Zealous
followers
,
came
into
my
Chappel
to
look
for
Superstitious
Pictures
,
and
Reliques
of
Idolatry
,
and
sent
for
me
,
to
let
me
know
they
found
those
Windows
full
of
Images
,
which
were
very
offensive
,
and
must
be
Demolished
:
I
told
them
they
were
the
Pictures
of
some
ancient
and
worthy
Bishops
,
as
St.
Ambrose
,
Austin
,
&c.
It
was
answered
me
,
that
they
were
so
many
Popes
;
and
one
younger
Man
amongst
the
rest
(
Townsend
as
I
perceived
afterwards
)
would
take
upon
him
to
defend
that
every
Diocesan
Bishop
was
Pope
,
I
answered
him
with
some
scorn
,
and
obtained
leave
,
that
I
might
with
the
least
loss
,
and
defacing
of
the
Windows
give
order
for
caking
off
that
Offence
,
which
I
did
,
by
causing
the
Heads
of
those
Pictures
to
be
taken
off
,
since
I
knew
the
Bodies
could
not
offend
.
There
was
not
that
Care
and
Moderation
used
in
reforming
the
Cathedral
Church
bordering
upon
my
Palace
.
It
is
no
other
than
Tragical
to
relate
the
Carriage
of
that
furious
Sacrilidge
,
whereof
our
Eyes
and
Ears
were
the
sad
Witnesses
,
under
the
Authority
and
Presence
of
Linsey
,
Tofts
,
the
Sheriff
,
and
Greenwood
;
Lord
,
what
work
was
here
,
what
clattering
of
Glasses
,
what
beating
down
of
Walls
,
what
tearing
up
of
Monuments
,
what
pulling
down
of
Seats
,
what
wresting
out
of
Irons
and
Brass
from
the
Windows
and
Graves
!
what
defacing
of
Arms
,
what
demolishing
of
curious
Stone-work
,
that
had
not
any
representation
in
the
World
,
but
only
the
cost
of
the
Founder
,
and
Skill
of
the
Mason
,
what
tooting
and
piping
upon
the
destroyed
Organ
Pipes
,
and
what
a
hideous
triumph
on
the
Market-Day
before
all
the
Country
,
when
in
a
kind
of
Sacrilegious
and
profane
Procession
,
all
the
Organ
Pipes
,
Vestments
,
both
Copes
and
Surplices
,
together
with
the
Leaden-Cross
,
which
had
been
newly
sawn
down
from
over
the
Green-Yard
Pulpit
,
and
the
Service
Books
,
and
Singing
Books
that
could
be
had
,
were
carried
to
the
Fire
in
the
publick
Market-place
;
A
leud
Wretch
walking
before
the
Train
,
in
his
Cope
trailing
in
the
Dirt
,
with
a
Service
Book
in
his
Hand
,
imitating
in
an
impious
Scorn
the
Tune
,
and
usurping
the
words
of
the
Litany
used
formerly
in
the
Church
:
Near
the
publick
Cross
,
all
these
Monuments
of
Idolatry
must
be
Sacrificed
to
the
Fire
,
not
without
much
Ostentation
of
a
zealous
Joy
,
in
discharging
Ordnance
to
the
cost
of
some
who
professed
how
much
they
had
long'd
to
see
that
Day
.
Neither
was
it
any
News
upon
this
Guild-day
to
have
the
Cathedral
now
open
on
all
sides
to
be
filled
with
Musketiers
,
waiting
for
the
Major's
return
,
drinking
and
tobaccouring
,
as
freely
as
if
it
had
turn'd
Alehouse
.
Still
yet
I
remained
in
my
Palace
,
tho
with
but
a
poor
Retinue
and
Means
;
but
the
House
was
held
too
good
for
Me
:
Many
Messages
were
sent
by
Mr.
Corbet
to
remove
me
thence
;
The
first
Pretence
was
,
that
the
Committee
,
who
now
was
at
charge
for
an
House
to
sit
in
,
might
make
their
daily
Session
there
,
being
a
place
both
more
publick
,
roomy
and
chargeless
.
The
Committee
,
after
many
Consultations
,
resolved
it
convenient
to
remove
thither
,
tho
many
Overtures
and
Offers
were
made
to
the
contrary
.
Mr.
Corbet
was
impatient
of
my
stay
there
,
and
procures
and
sends
peremptory
Messages
for
my
present
dislodging
;
we
desired
to
have
some
time
allowed
for
providing
some
othep
Mansion
,
if
we
must
needs
be
cast
out
of
this
,
which
my
Wife
was
so
willing
to
hold
,
(
if
the
charge
of
the
present
Committee-house
were
the
Things
stood
upon
)
she
would
be
content
to
defray
the
Sum
of
the
Rent
of
that
House
out
of
her
fifth
part
;
but
that
might
not
be
yielded
;
Out
we
must
,
and
that
in
three
Weeks
warning
by
Midsummer-day
then
approaching
,
so
as
we
might
have
lain
in
the
Street
for
ought
I
know
,
had
not
the
Providence
of
God
so
ordered
it
,
that
a
Neighbour
in
the
Close
,
one
Mr.
Goslin
,
a
Widower
,
was
content
to
void
his
House
for
us
.
This
hath
been
my
Measure
,
wherefore
I
know
not
,
Lord
,
thou
knowest
,
who
only
canst
remedy
,
and
end
,
and
forgive
or
avenge
this
horrible
Oppression
.

A
Taste
of
the
rude
Behaviour
of
the
Sectaries
,
towards
some
of
the
Episcopal
Clergy
.
GRiffith
Williams
,
Bishop
of
Ossory
in
Ireland
,
was
Barbarously
us'd
in
the
Time
of
the
Rebellion
,
being
fetch'd
away
from
his
House
at
Apethorpe
in
Northampton-shire
by
a
Troop
of
Soldiers
(
for
writing
his
Vindiciae
Regum
)
and
carried
Prisoner
to
Northampton
;
where
the
Committee
,
before
which
he
was
Summon'd
,
had
the
said
Book
in
their
Hands
.
After
this
he
retir'd
to
Oxford
,
when
the
Soldiers
from
Northampton
went
and
plunder'd
his
House
,
and
all
his
Houshold-Stuff
at
Apethorpe
,
where
his
Wife
and
Children
then
resided
,
and
Sequestred
his
Lands
for
the
Use
of
the
Parliament
.
Upon
the
declining
of
the
King's
Cause
,
he
was
brought
very
low
;
and
tho
he
had
Offers
made
him
of
very
considerable
Preferment
,
if
he
would
but
have
submitted
to
the
Parliament
,
yet
he
utterly
refus'd
them
.
Soon
after
he
retir'd
into
Wales
,
where
,
for
twelve
Years
together
he
had
not
20
l.
per
Annum
in
all
the
World
,
to
maintain
himself
and
his
Servants
,
and
was
forc'd
to
live
on
a
little
Tenement
of
2
l.
10
s
.
a
Year
,
and
4
l.
Land
of
his
own
;
so
that
he
liv'd
worse
than
a
poor
Curate
,
with
Oaten-Bread
,
Barley-Bread
,
Butter-Milk
,
and
sometimes
Water
;
being
not
able
to
keep
one
drop
of
Ale
or
Beer
during
Ten
Years
together
.
He
went
also
Attir'd
in
very
mean
Cloaths
,
and
was
forc'd
to
do
many
servile
Works
himself
,
about
his
House
,
Garden
,
and
Cattle
.
He
surviv'd
all
his
Troubles
,
and
was
restor'd
to
all
his
Preferments
at
his
Restoration
.
Thomas
Howel
,
Bishop
of
Bristol
,
met
with
barbarous
Usage
from
the
Hands
of
the
Rebels
;
His
Palace
,
which
was
then
cover'd
with
Lead
,
they
uncas'd
,
and
sold
the
Lead
;
so
that
he
was
expos'd
to
the
Weather
Day
and
Night
.
His
Lady
they
knew
to
be
then
in
Childbed
,
in
which
Condition
it
rain'd
freely
upon
her
.
After
many
other
Indignities
,
they
pull'd
and
hawll'd
him
violently
out
of
the
Palace
,
of
which
they
made
a
Malt-House
,
and
a
Mill
;
for
there
they
Ground
as
well
as
made
great
quanties
of
Malt
many
Years
,
as
many
yet
living
in
Bristol
well
remember
.
In
a
Word
,
their
Usage
towards
him
was
such
,
that
he
did
not
long
survive
their
Cruelty
;
but
died
soon
after
,
being
a
Person
of
a
mild
and
tender
Disposition
.
William
Laud
,
Arch-Bishop
of
Canterbury
,
The
blessed
Martyr
,
He
was
revil'd
,
calumniated
,
imprison'd
in
the
Tower
four
Years
,
put
under
Sequestration
,
both
for
his
Temporals
and
Spirituals
,
most
unjustly
accus'd
,
and
contrary
to
all
Law
,
at
last
sentenc'd
even
to
the
Halter
:
But
on
his
repeaetd
Petitions
(
at
first
rejected
)
he
had
the
Favour
of
the
Ax
granted
him
by
his
Bloody
Murderers
.
He
witness'd
with
his
Blood
to
the
Truth
of
the
Church's
and
His
Majesty's
Cause
,
on
Tower-Hill
,
Jan
10th
1644-5
.
Thomas
Morton
,
Bishop
of
Durham
,
when
the
Rebellion
broke
out
,
was
an
early
Sufferer
under
it
;
and
in
the
Year
1640
,
there
was
an
Order
of
Parliament
for
seizing
his
Rents
.
Being
one
of
the
Protesting
Bishops
,
he
was
committed
to
the
Black-Rod
,
where
he
continued
four
Months
,
and
was
taken
into
Custody
for
Baptizing
a
Child
of
the
Earl
of
Rutland's
,
according
to
the
Order
of
the
Church
of
England
,
&c.
He
was
turn'd
out
of
Durham-House
by
the
Soldiers
,
when
they
came
to
make
a
Garrison
of
it
;
and
in
one
of
the
Tumults
in
London
,
was
in
danger
of
his
Life
from
the
Rabble
;
who
cried
out
,
Pull
him
out
of
the
Coach
;
and
whilst
others
cried
,
No
,
he
is
a
good
Man
;
they
answered
,
't
is
no
matter
for
that
,
he
is
a
Bishop
.
And
himself
afterwards
said
,
he
verily
believ'd
he
should
not
have
escap'd
alive
,
had
not
a
leading
Man
among
them
,
cried
out
,
Let
him
go
and
hang
himself
.
Matthew
Wren
,
Bishop
of
Ely
,
was
one
of
the
most
early
Sufferers
of
all
the
Clergy
,
and
the
very
first
Bishop
that
was
depriv'd
by
the
Rebel
Parliament
.
Upon
a
Petition
of
the
Inhabitants
of
Ipswich
,
a
Committee
of
Parliament
was
order'd
to
draw
up
a
Charge
against
him
;
and
July
5th
1641
,
He
was
Voted
unworthy
to
hold
any
Spiritual
Promotion
;
Being
one
of
the
Protesting
Bishops
,
he
was
Imprison'd
with
the
rest
,
till
May
5th
,
they
were
all
releas'd
on
Bail
,
by
the
House
of
Lords
,
afterwards
retiring
to
his
House
at
Downham
,
he
was
soon
Apprehended
by
a
Party
of
Soldiers
,
and
brought
back
again
to
the
Tower
,
where
he
continued
to
the
end
of
the
Year
,
1659
,
without
any
Charge
or
Accusation
form'd
against
him
.
His
Plate
was
seiz'd
by
the
House
of
Commons
,
and
order'd
to
be
melted
down
for
the
Use
of
the
Common-wealth
.
His
Goods
were
Plunder'd
,
his
Estate
seiz'd
,
and
he
was
so
miserably
persecuted
and
oppres'd
,
that
in
the
Year
1660
,
when
his
Son
Thomas
was
created
M.
D.
at
Oxford
,
the
Chancellor's
Letter
for
that
Purpose
,
acquaints
the
Convocation
,
That
the
Pressures
under
which
his
Father
lay
for
Seventeen
Years
together
,
were
such
,
that
he
could
not
(
his
Estate
being
taken
away
)
allow
his
Children
Bread
,
&c
He
surviv'd
all
his
Troubles
,
and
was
restor'd
(
with
His
Majesty
)
to
his
Bishoprick
.
George
Coke
,
Bishop
of
Hereford
,
during
the
Rebellion
,
Suffer'd
in
common
with
the
rest
;
was
one
of
the
Protesting
Bishops
,
and
accordingly
Imprison'd
on
that
Account
:
When
Colonel
Birch
took
the
City
of
Hereford
in
1645
,
he
rifled
the
good
Bishop's
Palace
,
and
afterwards
took
up
his
Habitation
there
till
the
Restauration
.
The
Bishop
had
likewise
a
Temporal
Estate
in
the
Parish
of
Eardsley
,
call'd
Quistmore
;
which
the
Committee
of
Herreford
laid
their
Paws
upon
.
By
this
,
and
such
other
Methods
,
he
was
reduc'd
so
low
,
that
tho
he
was
otherwise
a
very
thrifty
Man
;
yet
he
had
wanted
,
had
not
his
Relations
supported
him
.
This
hard
Usage
hastned
his
Death
,
in
1646
,
He
bore
his
Sufferings
with
admirable
Calmness
and
Serenity
;
and
had
the
Character
of
a
Pious
and
Learned
Man
.
Morgan
Owen
,
Bishop
of
Landaffe
,
was
likewise
one
of
the
Protesting
Bishops
,
and
was
accordingly
imprison'd
in
the
Tower
,
and
Impeach'd
of
High
Treason
.
He
continued
there
about
four
Months
,
and
afterwards
retir'd
into
his
own
Country
,
where
his
Palace
at
Mathern
near
Chepstow
was
seiz'd
by
one
Green
of
Cardiffe
,
together
with
all
his
Revenues
.
One
Reese
,
John
David
,
the
Agent
and
Sequestrator
,
(
who
liv'd
in
the
Parsonage
House
,
managed
the
Glebe
,
and
receiv'd
the
Tythe
)
remov'd
a
very
fine
Font
of
Stone
out
of
the
Church
of
Bedwas
;
and
when
himself
and
his
Man
could
not
break
it
to
pieces
,
he
caus'd
it
to
be
brought
under
the
Yew-Tree
,
where
it
was
us'd
as
a
Trough
to
water
his
Horses
and
Cattle
in
.
Robert
Wright
,
Bishop
of
Lichfield
,
was
one
of
the
Twelve
Protesting
Bishops
,
and
spoke
a
very
handsome
Speech
on
that
Occasion
,
at
the
Bar
of
the
House
of
Commons
;
but
all
in
Vain
.
For
he
was
,
notwithstanding
,
sent
to
the
Tower
,
where
he
continued
18
Weeks
a
Prisoner
at
his
great
Charge
.
He
is
said
to
have
devoted
half
his
Estate
to
his
Majesty's
Service
;
and
that
he
was
one
of
the
strictest
Bishops
that
ever
sate
in
the
See
;
that
he
was
a
Man
of
Painfulness
,
Integrity
and
Moderation
;
that
likewise
his
Vertues
were
such
,
that
the
Vices
only
,
and
not
the
Men
of
the
Times
were
his
Enemies
.
Robert
Skinner
,
Bishop
of
Oxford
,
was
one
of
the
Twelve
Bishops
that
made
the
Protestation
,
for
which
he
was
imprison'd
in
the
Tower
eighteen
Weeks
,
to
his
great
Charge
.
His
other
Sufferings
from
the
Faction
,
we
have
no
Particulars
of
.
John
Towers
,
Bishop
of
Peterborough
,
was
likewise
one
of
the
Protesting
Bishops
,
for
which
he
underwent
the
same
Usage
with
the
former
;
but
after
some
time
,
obtaining
his
Liberty
,
he
betook
himself
to
His
Majesty
at
Oxford
,
where
he
continued
till
the
Surrender
of
that
Place
,
and
then
returned
again
to
Peterborough
,
but
found
his
Revenues
all
seiz'd
upon
:
Nor
was
that
thought
enough
,
for
he
was
more-over
continually
Alarm'd
with
Threatnings
and
Molestations
,
to
the
time
of
his
Death
.
January
,
10th
,
1648.
John
Warner
,
Bishop
of
Rochester
,
When
the
Seeds
of
Rebellion
and
Anarchy
began
to
Reign
,
in
1641
,
He
shew'd
himself
a
most
Zealous
Asserter
of
Episcopacy
in
the
House
of
Lords
,
speaking
for
the
Function
as
long
as
he
had
any
Voice
left
,
and
very
pertinently
and
valiantly
defended
the
Antiquity
and
Justice
of
Bishops
Votes
in
the
House
of
Parliament
.
Afterwards
,
he
did
not
only
Suffer
with
his
Brethren
,
by
having
the
Lands
of
his
See
taken
away
;
but
by
compounding
for
his
Temporal
Estate
,
which
was
considerable
.
However
,
by
thus
parting
with
some
of
his
Estate
to
save
the
rest
,
he
was
enabled
to
assist
his
suffering
Brethren
;
and
was
accordingly
a
great
Support
to
the
sequestred
Clergy
,
and
their
Families
,
as
well
as
to
other
indigent
Persons
,
often
using
this
homely
Expression
,
That
he
did
eat
the
Cragg
End
of
the
Neck
of
Mutton
himself
,
that
he
might
leave
the
Poor
the
Shoulders
.
He
out-liv'd
his
,
as
well
as
the
Kingdoms
Troubles
;
and
died
in
the
86th
Year
of
his
Age
.
William
Piers
,
Bishop
of
Welles
,
was
one
of
the
Protesting
Bishops
;
as
likewise
of
the
Number
of
those
who
were
singled
out
from
among
the
rest
of
the
Clergy
for
the
utmost
Persecution
;
in
order
to
increase
the
Clamour
of
the
People
,
by
rendring
them
Monstrous
and
Odious
,
as
well
as
to
wreak
their
Malice
and
Sleep
upon
them
.
And
accordingly
this
Reverend
Prelate
felt
the
Effects
of
it
as
early
,
and
to
as
great
a
Degree
as
any
of
them
;
being
continually
for
some
time
harass'd
and
perplex'd
by
the
House
;
was
one
of
those
who
were
Imprison'd
for
that
most
just
and
necessary
Remonstrance
:
And
the
High
Crimes
which
he
was
accus'd
of
,
were
no
other
than
,
Suppressing
Factious
Lecturers
,
ordering
the
Communion
Tables
in
the
Churches
,
of
his
own
Diocess
,
to
be
railed
in
;
and
things
of
this
Nature
.
John
Prideaux
,
Bishop
of
Worcester
,
was
promoted
to
this
See
in
1641
,
but
the
Troubles
were
at
that
time
so
far
advanc'd
,
that
he
receiv'd
little
or
no
Profit
from
it
,
to
his
great
Impoverishment
:
For
adhering
stedfastly
to
His
Majesty's
Cause
,
and
pronouncing
all
those
of
his
Diocess
,
who
took
up
Arms
against
him
,
Excommunicate
;
it
is
no
Wonder
that
he
not
only
Suffer'd
in
common
with
the
rest
,
but
even
beyond
most
of
his
Order
;
Being
Plunder'd
,
and
reduc'd
to
such
great
Streights
,
that
he
was
forc'd
to
sell
his
Excellent
Library
to
subsist
himself
and
his
Family
:
Of
which
there
goes
this
memorable
Story
.
That
towards
the
latter
end
of
his
Life
,
a
Friend
coming
to
see
him
,
and
saluting
him
in
the
common
form
of
,
How
does
your
Lordship
do
?
Never
better
in
my
Life
,
said
he
,
only
I
have
too
great
a
Stomach
;
for
I
have
eaten
that
little
Plate
which
the
Sequestrators
left
me
,
I
have
eaten
a
great
Library
of
Excellent
Books
,
I
have
eaten
a
great
deal
of
Linnen
,
much
of
my
Brass
,
some
of
my
Pewter
,
and
now
I
am
come
to
eat
Iron
;
and
what
will
come
next
I
know
not
.
He
died
in
1650
,
leaving
his
Children
no
Legacy
,
but
Pious
Poverty
,
God's
Blessing
,
and
a
Father's
Prayers
,
as
it
appears
by
his
last
Will
and
Testament
.
Roger
Manwaring
,
Bishop
of
St.
Davids
,
was
first
call'd
in
Question
by
the
Parliament
for
two
Sermons
Preach'd
before
King
Charles
I.
(
which
he
afterwards
Publish'd
under
the
Title
of
Religion
and
Loyalty
)
being
Charg'd
with
endeavouring
to
destroy
the
King
and
Kingdom
by
his
Divinity
,
and
censur'd
to
be
Imprison'd
;
was
Fin'd
1000
l.
and
Order'd
to
make
his
Submission
,
and
was
disabled
to
have
or
enjoy
any
Preferment
or
Office
.
Notwithstanding
which
,
the
King
soon
after
Pardon'd
and
Advanc'd
him
;
But
the
Party
were
not
forgetful
of
him
;
and
in
1640
,
his
Troubles
were
reviv'd
in
Parliament
;
and
the
old
Grudge
still
lay
at
the
bottom
of
the
Persecution
,
yet
the
New
Crimes
of
Popish
Invasions
,
Conversing
with
Papists
,
and
being
Sociable
and
Jovial
,
were
Trumpt
up
against
him
.
Upon
which
he
was
Apprehended
suddenly
,
Confin'd
severely
,
Fin'd
heavily
,
Plunder'd
violently
,
and
persecuted
from
Place
to
Place
continually
;
insomuch
,
that
for
the
two
last
Years
of
his
Life
,
not
a
Week
pass'd
over
his
Head
,
without
a
Message
or
an
Injury
;
which
he
desir'd
God
not
to
remember
against
his
Adversaries
,
and
adjur'd
all
his
Friends
to
forget
.
Under
these
his
Troubles
,
he
had
nothing
but
a
small
Temporal
Estate
left
to
Support
him
,
and
died
at
Caermarthen
,
after
he
had
endur'd
many
Miseries
,
July
16
,
1653.
Thomas
Westfeild
,
Bishop
of
Bristol
,
accepted
of
this
Bishoprick
in
the
worst
of
Times
,
as
hoping
to
do
some
Service
to
the
Church
,
tho
he
had
refus'd
the
Offer
of
it
,
which
was
made
him
Twenty
Years
before
.
In
the
beginning
of
the
Rebellion
,
he
was
abused
in
the
Streets
,
Sequestred
from
St.
Bartholomews
,
and
forced
to
fly
.
He
was
a
Sufferer
for
his
own
and
His
Majesty's
Cause
,
the
Profits
of
his
Bishoprick
being
unjustly
detain'd
from
him
,
tho
afterwards
by
a
Committee
of
the
Rebel
Parliament
,
order'd
to
be
restor'd
;
and
when
he
came
to
make
his
Will
,
it
ran
thus
:
As
for
my
worldly
Goods
,
(
which
as
the
Times
now
are
)
I
know
well
not
where
they
be
;
I
give
and
bequeath
,
&c.
James
Usher
,
The
Celebrated
Archbishop
of
Armagh
,
upon
the
breaking
out
of
the
Irish
Rebellion
,
fled
into
England
,
where
,
in
Consideration
of
his
great
Losses
in
Ireland
,
he
had
the
Bishoprick
of
Carlisle
conferr'd
upon
him
,
making
a
shift
to
subsist
upon
that
little
he
could
get
,
until
the
Rebellion
grew
prevalent
;
at
which
time
the
Houses
of
Parliament
having
seiz'd
upon
the
Bishops
Lands
,
their
Agent
(
or
those
who
took
upon
them
to
be
so
)
collected
all
the
Arrears
and
growing
Rents
of
the
Bishoprick
for
their
own
use
.
The
Chief
of
those
who
were
employed
,
was
one
Barker
;
who
destroy'd
the
Woods
,
pillag'd
the
Castle
of
Rose
(
the
Bishop's
Residence
)
and
carried
off
many
of
the
Stones
to
build
his
own
House
and
Barns
.
And
as
he
suffer'd
in
his
Revenues
,
so
he
did
in
Person
likewise
;
for
being
sought
after
in
London
,
he
was
forc'd
to
fly
from
Place
to
Place
;
and
whilst
in
Wales
,
he
was
plunder'd
of
his
chiefest
Books
and
Manuscripts
He
was
deliver'd
out
of
these
and
all
his
other
Troubles
at
Rygate
in
Surrey
,
and
was
buried
at
Westminster
,
as
't
is
generally
thought
,
at
the
Charges
of
the
Protector
;
who
did
,
indeed
,
Order
200
l
out
of
the
Deodands
for
that
purpose
;
but
it
was
never
paid
.
George
Coke
,
first
promoted
to
the
Bishoprick
of
Bristol
;
and
then
of
Hereford
.
During
the
Rebellion
,
he
suffer'd
in
common
with
the
rest
of
his
Order
;
and
was
one
of
the
Protesting
Bishops
,
and
accordingly
Imprison'd
on
that
Account
.
When
Colonel
Birch
took
the
City
of
Hereford
,
in
1645
,
he
rifled
this
good
Bishop's
Palace
,
and
afterwards
took
up
his
Habitation
there
till
the
Restoration
;
and
what
is
more
,
had
great
part
of
the
Revenues
of
the
Bishoprick
to
his
own
Use
;
and
to
this
Day
the
Mannour
of
Whitbourn
,
by
the
sorry
Compliance
of
some
who
might
have
prevented
it
,
continues
in
his
Family
.
By
this
and
such
other
Methods
,
he
was
reduc'd
so
low
,
that
tho
he
was
otherwise
a
very
thirfty
Man
;
yet
he
had
wanted
,
had
not
his
Relations
supported
him
.
This
hard
usage
hasten'd
his
Death
,
1646
,
tho
he
bore
his
Sufferings
with
admirable
Calmness
and
Serenity
;
leaving
the
Character
behind
him
of
a
Pious
and
Learned
Man
.
Accepted
Frewen
,
First
advanc'd
to
the
Bishoprick
of
Lichfield
,
by
K.
Ch.
1st
.
and
afterwards
to
the
Arch-Bishoprick
of
York
,
at
the
Restoration
.
He
was
a
great
Loyalist
,
being
concern'd
in
sending
the
Plate
from
Oxford
to
his
Majesty
,
whilst
he
was
President
of
Magdalen
College
;
and
was
forc'd
afterwards
to
Fly
for
it
,
to
avoid
being
taken
into
Custody
.
His
Temporal
also
,
as
well
as
his
Bishoprick
,
was
put
under
Sequestration
.
Walter
Curle
,
Bishop
of
Winchester
;
when
the
Rebellion
prevail'd
,
he
became
a
great
Sufferer
for
Monarchy
and
Episcopacy
;
was
in
the
City
of
Winchester
,
when
it
was
besieg'd
by
the
Parliament
Forces
;
and
upon
the
Surrender
of
that
Place
,
retir'd
to
Subberton
in
Hampshire
,
where
he
Died
in
1647.
He
had
a
Temporal
Estate
which
was
also
put
under
Sequestration
;
nor
was
he
allow'd
to
compound
for
it
,
because
he
would
not
take
the
Covenant
.
He
was
a
Man
of
very
great
Charity
to
the
Poor
,
and
expended
large
Sums
in
the
Repairs
of
Churches
.
John
Williams
,
Arch-Bishop
of
York
;
was
promoted
to
this
See
,
in
1641.
From
that
of
Lincoln
;
and
was
at
the
Head
of
the
Protesting
Bishops
soon
after
;
for
which
he
was
Eighteen
Weeks
imprison'd
in
the
Tower
,
and
afterwards
suffer'd
much
for
his
Majesty's
Cause
.
He
was
once
Assaulted
,
and
had
his
Robes
torn
from
his
Back
,
He
was
also
plunder'd
,
as
I
find
by
an
Order
of
the
House
of
Commons
,
dated
Feb.
18.
1643
/

;
,
which
commanded
his
Plate
to
be
melted
Down
,
for
the
Use
of
the
Commonwealth
.
A
Specimen
of
the
Moderation
of
the
Sectaries

Dignity
,
after
the
RESTORATION

RObert
Sanderson
,
June
the
14th
.
1648.
Was
by
the
Committee
for
the
Reformation
of
the
University
of
Oxford
,
Voted
out
of
his
Canonry
of
Christ
Church
,
and
the
Professorship
,
having
been
Summoned
before
that
Committee
the
22d
.
of
Nov.
before-going
.
After
that
Time
one
Cross
was
substituted
in
his
Professorship
,
as
Henry
Cornish
was
afterwards
in
his
Canonry
.
After
which
he
retir'd
to
his
Living
of
Boostby
,
which
had
been
put
under
Sequestration
in
1644.
and
so
continued
at
that
Time
;
at
this
Place
he
met
with
a
great
deal
of
Ill
Usage
:
Among
other
abuses
which
were
put
upon
him
,
The
Soldiers
often
tore
his
Common
Prayer-Book
to
pieces
,
&c.
and
at
length
seiz'd
and
carried
him
Prisoner
to
Lincoln
,
in
order
to
get
the
furious
and
zealous
Covenanting
Minister
of
Allington
exchang'd
for
him
.
Notwithstanding
which
,
Dr.
Sanderson
could
not
live
Safe
or
quietly
there
:
For
tho
,
by
that
Agreement
,
he
got
the
Sequestration
of
his
Living
taken
off
,
yet
he
was
several
times
afterwards
Plunder'd
;
and
once
Wounded
in
no
less
than
three
Places
:
He
had
at
that
time
a
Wife
and
Children
,
was
reduc'd
to
great
Poverty
;
and
in
1658
,
was
in
a
very
pitiful
Condition
:
But
surviving
the
Restoration
,
he
was
restor'd
to
his
Dignities
,
and
worthily
created
Bishop
of
Lincoln
.
Peter
Gunning
,
Promoted
to
the
Bishoprick
,
first
of
Gloucester
,
then
of
Ely
,
by
King
Charles
II
.
Upon
the
breaking
out
of
the
Rebellion
,
he
was
Zealous
in
the
Cause
of
His
Majesty
and
the
Church
;
and
always
oppos'd
the
Faction
to
the
very
utmost
of
his
Power
;
for
which
he
became
,
in
a
particular
manner
,
the
Object
of
their
Fury
:
And
whilst
he
was
with
his
Mother
(
lately
then
become
a
Widow
)
in
Kent
,
he
was
hunted
about
,
and
forc'd
to
lye
in
Woods
;
and
at
length
was
Imprison'd
,
for
having
assisted
some
Forces
belonging
to
the
King
at
Tunbridge
,
with
the
Charity
he
had
mov'd
a
Neighbouring
Congregation
to
,
by
two
Sermons
.
A
while
after
he
became
Curate
of
the
little
Vicarage
of
Cassington
,
near
Oxford
;
at
which
Place
,
for
about
the
space
of
two
Years
,
he
endur'd
several
Affronts
and
Abuses
by
the
Parliamentarian
Soldiers
from
Abingdon
,
and
elsewhere
;
either
by
interrupting
him
with
base
Language
,
or
by
pulling
him
out
of
the
Church
.
Richard
Sterne
,
Promoted
first
to
the
See
of
Carlisle
,
and
then
to
the
Arch-Bishoprick
of
Canterbury
,
after
the
Restoration
.
Upon
the
breaking
out
of
the
Rebellion
,
he
was
very
Active
in
sending
the
Cambridge
Plate
to
His
Majesty
;
for
which
,
he
,
with
two
other
worthy
Loyalists
,
was
by
Cromwell
(
who
had
with
some
Parties
of
Soldiers
surrounded
the
several
Chappels
,
whilst
the
Scholars
were
at
Prayers
)
seiz'd
and
carried
in
Triumph
to
London
;
and
tho
there
was
an
express
Order
from
the
Lord's
House
,
for
their
Imprisonment
in
the
Tower
,
which
met
them
at
Tottenham
High-Cross
(
wherein
,
notwithstanding
there
was
no
Crime
exprest
)
yet
they
were
led
Captive
thro
Bartholomew
Fair
,
and
so
as
far
as
Temple-Bar
,
and
back
thro'
the
City
to
Prison
in
the
Tower
,
on
purpose
that
they
might
be
hooted
at
,
or
Ston'd
by
the
Rabble-Rout
.
After
which
,
for
three
Years
together
,
they
were
hurried
up
and
down
from
one
Prison
to
another
,
at
excessive
and
unreasonable
Charges
;
and
Fees
exacted
from
them
,
far
beyond
their
Abilities
to
defray
;
having
all
their
Goods
Plunder'd
,
and
their
Masterships
and
Livings
taken
from
them
,
which
should
preserve
them
from
Famishing
.
And
tho
in
all
things
Time
there
was
never
any
Accusation
brought
,
much
less
prov'd
against
any
of
them
,
yet
did
they
Suffer
intolerable
Imprisonment
both
by
Land
and
Water
;
especially
that
in
the
Ship
;
where
,
for
ten
Days
together
(
they
,
with
many
other
Gentlemen
of
great
Rank
)
were
kept
under
Deck
,
without
Liberty
to
come
to
Breathe
in
the
common
Air
,
or
to
ease
Nature
,
except
at
the
Courtesie
of
the
rude
Sailors
,
which
oftentimes
was
denied
them
:
In
which
Condition
,
they
were
more
like
Gally
Slaves
than
Freeborn
Subjects
,
and
Men
of
such
Quality
and
Condition
;
and
had
been
so
indeed
,
might
some
have
had
their
Wills
,
who
were
bargaining
with
the
Merchants
to
sell
them
to
Algiers
,
or
as
bad
a
Place
,
as
has
since
been
notoriously
known
,
upon
no
false
or
fraudulent
Information
.
After
this
,
Dr.
Sterne
was
remov'd
from
the
Ship
,
but
still
kept
under
Confinement
in
some
other
Prison
;
only
had
the
Favour
of
attending
the
Blessed
Martyr'd
Arch-Bishop
on
the
Scaffold
on
Tower
Hill
.
At
length
,
having
lost
all
he
had
,
and
suffer'd
to
the
last
Degree
for
his
Loyalty
,
he
was
permitted
to
have
his
Liberty
,
and
surviv'd
his
Troubles
.
Guy
Carleton
,
advanc'd
first
to
the
Bishoprick
of
Bristol
,
1671
,
and
thence
translated
to
that
of
Chichister
,
1678
,
Upon
the
breaking
out
of
the
Rebllion
,
he
faithfully
adher'd
to
his
Majesty's
Interest
,
and
was
not
a
little
Serviseable
to
him
.
He
was
first
of
all
forc'd
from
his
Rich
Living
in
the
North
,
and
was
afterwards
driven
from
that
of
Bucklesbury
by
the
Triers
:
After
which
,
he
was
likewise
seiz'd
and
imprison'd
in
Lambeth
House
,
where
his
Wife
secretly
convey'd
a
Cord
to
him
,
by
the
help
of
which
he
let
himself
down
thro'
a
Window
towards
the
Thames
;
but
being
forc'd
to
drop
from
it
,
not
being
long
enough
,
he
dislocated
one
of
his
Bones
;
when
a
Boat
being
provided
for
him
,
he
was
soon
carried
off
,
and
conce
lest
during
the
Cure
;
which
his
poor
Wife
was
oblig'd
to
sell
her
Bed
to
pay
for
.
He
return'd
from
beyond
the
Seas
with
his
Majesty
;
and
was
worthily
promoted
as
aforesaid
;
and
died
in
1685.
Anthony
Sparrow
,
first
made
Bishop
of
Exeter
,
and
from
thence
translated
to
Norwich
.
About
the
Year
1648
,
or
1649
,
he
obtained
the
Living
of
Haukdon
in
Sussex
,
but
the
Religious
Committee
at
Westminster
,
suffer'd
him
not
to
enjoy
it
above
five
Weeks
.
He
was
also
oblig'd
to
fly
and
conceal
himself
.
He
had
at
that
Time
,
or
soon
after
,
six
Children
;
but
was
not
able
to
obtain
any
Fifths
to
Support
them
,
from
the
Intruder
.
Under
these
Calamitous
Circumstances
he
continued
about
Eleven
Years
,
when
the
Restoration
of
his
Majesty
dispell'd
the
darksome
Clouds
which
had
hover'd
over
him
for
so
long
a
Time
.
John
Cosin
,
advanc'd
to
the
Bishoprick
of
Durham
by
King
Charles
II
.
was
in
the
Year
1640
,
prefer'd
to
the
Deanry
of
that
Place
,
but
never
was
suffer'd
to
enjoy
it
;
his
Troubles
taking
their
Rise
with
his
Advancement
:
Being
soon
after
the
meeting
of
the
Rebel
Parliament
,
Resolv'd
unfit
to
hold
any
Ecclesiastical
Preferment
,
and
one
of
the
Number
of
those
worthy
Clergymen
whom
the
Party
had
singled
out
for
Destruction
He
was
sent
for
by
the
House
as
a
Delinquent
,
Novemb
.
21
,
1644
,
and
was
the
first
of
all
the
Clergy
that
we
find
Sequestred
;
which
was
effected
by
a
Vote
of
the
whole
House
,
Jan.
22
,
1640-1
,
under
which
he
lay
near
Twenty
Years
,
and
about
Seventeen
under
an
actual
Dispossession
of
all
his
Places
,
and
Banishment
also
;
being
forc'd
so
early
to
fly
into
France
,
and
having
been
Plunder'd
of
all
that
he
had
,
before
he
went
thither
;
where
he
continued
Steadfast
and
immoveable
in
the
Profession
of
the
Protestant
Persuasion
,
notwithstanding
the
vile
and
wicked
Calamnies
and
Clamors
of
the
Faction
against
him
,
his
being
inhumanely
divested
of
so
many
very
considerable
Preferments
,
Stripped
and
Plunder'd
of
all
the
Moveables
he
had
,
and
at
last
driven
like
a
Vagabond
into
Foreign
Parts
for
being
a
Papist
.
Brian
Duppa
,
advanc'd
to
the
Bishopick
of
Winchester
at
the
Restoration
.
Upon
the
breaking
out
of
the
Rebellion
he
suffer'd
in
common
with
the
Rest
of
his
Order
;
and
being
Stripped
of
those
large
Revenues
which
he
was
at
that
Time
possessed
of
,
He
retir'd
first
to
the
King
at
Oxford
,
and
afterwards
continued
to
attend
him
in
the
Isle
of
Wight
,
&c.
untill
the
Time
of
his
most
Execrable
Murder
;
after
which
he
retir'd
to
Richmond
in
Surrey
,
where
he
spent
most
of
his
Time
in
great
Devotion
and
Solitude
untill
the
Year
1660.
when
he
was
deservedly
Promoted
as
aforesaid
.
Gilbert
Sheldon
,
worthily
created
Arch-Bishop
of
Canterbury
at
the
Restoration
;
during
the
time
of
the
Rebellion
,
he
adher'd
stedfastly
to
his
Majesty's
Cause
,
and
when
the
Oxford
Visitation
came
on
,
strenuously
oppos'd
it
.
March
27
,
1648
,
He
honestly
,
and
boldly
told
the
Visitors
,
That
he
could
not
,
with
a
safe
Conscience
,
Submit
to
them
:
For
which
,
three
Days
after
,
they
depriv'd
him
of
his
Warden-ship
;
broke
open
the
Lodging
Doors
,
to
make
way
for
the
Intruder
;
and
then
hurried
away
the
Doctor
to
Prison
,
who
,
as
he
pass'd
the
Streets
,
had
a
Thousand
Prayers
and
Blessings
from
the
People
.
In
his
Confinement
,
he
continued
above
six
Months
;
and
then
the
reforming
Committe
set
him
at
Liberty
,
on
Condition
that
he
should
immediately
depart
five
Miles
from
Oxford
:
That
he
should
not
go
to
the
King
in
the
Isle
of
Wight
;
and
that
he
should
give
Security
to
Appear
before
them
,
at
four
Days
Warning
whenever
Cited
.
After
which
he
retir'd
,
and
spent
his
Time
in
Offices
of
Humanity
,
and
follow'd
his
Studies
and
Devotion
till
the
Restoration
.
George
Morley
,

the
Bishoprick
of
Worcester
,
and
thence
to
Winchester
at
the
Restoration
.
In
the
beginning
of
the
Wars
,
he
was
nominated
one
of
the
Assembly
of
Divines
,
but
never
Honour'd
'em
with
his
Presence
;
and
steadfastly
adher'd
to
the
Interest
of
his
Sovereign
,
during
the
time
of
the
Rebellion
.
He
scorn'd
to
stay
at
the
University
of
Oxford
,
tho
invited
to
it
by
the
Reformers
;
and
accordingly
,
was

Church
;
and
soon
after

with

for
that
,
or

;
and
attended
the
Gallant
Lord
Capel
,
before
his
Execution
;
at
length
observing
matters
growing
more
desperate
,
he
crossd
the
Seas
,
and
followed
the
Fortunes
of
the
young
King
,
and
constantly
waited
on
him
at
the
Hague
,
until
his
Majesty
went
for
Scotland
.
In
a
word
,
he
pass'd
away
the
Time
of
his
Exile
with
great
Satisfaction
,
and
continually
exercising
that
gloomy
Period
in
Visiting
the
Sick
,

relieving
the
Distrest
Loyalists

other

2
Chron

13.9
.
Have
ye
not
cast
out
the
priests
of
the
Lord
,
the
sons
of
Aaron
and
the
Levites
,
and
have
made
you
priests
after
the
manner
of
the
Nations
of
other
lands
?
so
that
whosoever
cometh
to
consecrate
himself
with
a
young
bullock
,
and
seven
rams
,
the
same
may
be
a
priest
of
no
gods
.
2
Chron
.
36.16
.
But
they
mocked
the
messengers
of
god
,
and
despised
his
words
,
and
misused
his
prophets
,
until
the
wrath
of
the
Lord
rose
against
his
people
,
till
there
was
no
remedy
.
Luke
6.22
,
23.
Blessed
are
you
,
when
men
shall
hate
you
,
and
when
they
shall
separate
you
from
their
Company
,
and
shall
reproach
you
,
and
cast
out
your
name
as
evil
,
for
the
son
of
mans
sake
.
Rejoyce
ye
in
that
day
,
and
leap
for
joy
,
for
behold
your
reward
is
great
in
heaven
,
for
according
to
these
things
did
their
Fathers
to
the
Prophets
.
Phil
.
1.28
,

In
nothing
be
ye
terrified
by
your
adversaries
;
which
to
them
is
an
evident
token
of
perdition
,
but
to
you
of
salvation
,
and
that
of
God
.
For
unto
you
the
grace
is
given
in
the
behalf
of
Christ
,
not
only
to
believe
on
him
,
but
also
to
suffer
for
his
sake
.
2
Tim
.
4.3
.
For
the
time
will
be
,
when
they
will
not
endure
wholsome
doctrine
;
but
having
itching
ears
,
shall
heap
to
themselves
Teachers
according
to
their
own
private
lusts
.
1
Pet

4.16

,
18.
If
any
man
suffer
as
a
Christian
,
let
him
not
be
ashamed
,
but
let
him
glorifie
God
in
this
behalf
.
For
the
time
is
come
,
that
judgment
must
begin
at
the
house
of
God
;
and
if
it
first
begin
at
us
,
what
shall
the
end
be
of
them
,
that
obey
not
the
gospel
of
God
?
And
if
the
just
man
be
saved
with
difficulty
,
where
shall
the
ungodly
and
the
sinner
appear
.
