But then I wonder you should passe that sentence on it, and choose Paraeus for your precedent. I must confesse to you Sir, had I written so destructively of Parliaments as He did of Kings, I should think it no injustice from that High Court, if they should doom me the Author to be sacrificed on the same Altar with my Book. But having (upon the highest warrant that can possibly lend courage to a good action ) directed it wholy against False Prophets, and no where reflected upon the Members of either House, but where I maintain it to be unlawfull to speak evill of dignities, to condemn it to the flame for speaking such Truths, as I could not leave unspoken, unlesse I had prevaricated with the Scripture, will be so sar from the reproach of a punishment, that 'twill encrease the esteem and value of it from its sufferings; and make it ascend to heaven as the Angel in the Book of Judges did, in the breath, and ayre, and perfume of an acceptable sacrifice to God. |
