Excerpt from A Complete Collection of State Trials and Proceedings for High Treason and Other Crimes and Misdemeanors From the Earliest Period to the Year 1738, Vol. 11 of 21: With Notes and Other Illustrations; 32 Charles II to 4 James II, 1680-1688 To a ly this to our present commotions though nnnnot positively charge those who are at the helm, of any underhand contrivanee, or certainly conclude the same from the out. Ward appearance of their actings, it being pos sible that such important suddenties, as have now fallen out, may prompt them to over reach themselves in their commands, as well as us in our, may be more zealous and forward, than. Well advised and really dutiful obedience: but, as long ago it was told me, by a witness of a certain great man's behaviour at the engage ment, Anno 1648, that he would not say, for all the world, that he had betrayed them, yet he could justly say, that if he had ot a house full of gold to betray them, be cool have done no more; so I will not assert, with the church 'or state fanatics of this time, that our coun sallora are really designing to introduce upon us, Pepe and arbitrary government, and are catchingrtiie advantage of the present confu sions in prosecution thereof; but in reason I may say, that had they the most real and for ward intention of so doing? They could hard] have fallen upon more li ely and favourab e courses, for that end, than some ot'those they are taking. There is much talking of a Popish Plot, and if therebevtnch a design of arbitrary power, it being also a work of darkness, that dares not as sault us with: open face, and meet to go in hands with the other, I may call it another Plot, which must work, underboard until hell he prepared to defend it. And these two pro clamatmns, the one for volunteers, whereby all the Papists in the kingdom are armed, and called out to the fields and the other charging, under highest pains, the whole nobility, gen and heritors to attend the army, under t e command of omeara appointed by the council, are like twomines sprung upon the chief bas tions of our liberties and religion, and we, hit? Fools, hear the noise, and gaze upon the smoke, but discern not, nor consider what it hath ear ried away with it.
