and proudly, that they are bound whensoeuer it should seeme good to the
said Bishop of Rome, to make any such inuasion of the Kingdome, and
Dominions of her Maiestie, to assist and further the said inuasion, by
al the wayes and meanes they can.

I aske nowe of you, what Prince soeuer you be, hauing the authoritie of
a Prince, what you would doe with such monsters as these are, giuen ouer
after this sort to such diuelishnes? would you suffer the cloke of

should not liue? surely no Prince or Monarche ought or may tollerate
such monstrous creatures, except he purposeth voluntarily to neglect
good lawes, his people, kingdome, and life; and sinne grieuously against
God himselfe. And these are the monsters that are in England committed
to execution; howsoeuer the companions of their treasons, by their
infamous libels spread amongst the people crie out, and say, they suffer
for the cause of Religion onely, and for their consciences.

Many of her subiects, and they no obscure men, but some of the
Nobilitie, and some others of the degree of knights are witnesses, that
howsoeuer they stand catholikely affected, yet as long as they conteine

Maiestie and the State, are neither committed to prison, nor in any ill
sort vsed, only for breaking the lawes of frequenting the Churches, are
peraduenture rated at some pecuniarie fine.

The ende and purpose why wee speake and publish these things, is to let
all good Princes and Magistrates, and others desirous to know the trueth
of things, vnderstande howe and by what meanes, as openly, priuily, by
force of armes, and practises of treacherie, the state of her Maiestie
