A Midnight Touch At an Unlicens'd Pamphlet, CALLED, A Vindication of the Archbishop, and several other Bishops.  
WE do justly term and esteem him, who Abdicated the Throne, no other than the late King; yet we find in the Paper, this day published; Five Clergymen, in defiance of an Act of Parliament, calling themselves, W. Cant. W. Norwich, F. Ely, Tho. Bath and Wells, Tho. Peterburgh. It would have given great offence, if there had been added, Richard Baxter Rector of Kederminster; yet a good Lawyer affirmed in a Coffe-house but two hours since, that he hath as good a title to Kederminster as the other five have to the Names which they assume to themselves, and presume to write, and that they ought only to have subscribed William Sancroft, William Loyd, Francis Turner, Tho. Ken. and Thomas White, late Bishops (if they pleased.)  
It is as certain that there is a third Plot, as that there is a New Liturgy; and that there is a Lambeth Club, the Paper now published confesses; but whether Holy or not, I know not; and for aught I know the inserting that Epethete (holy) both to theirs and the Jacobite, or Devil-Tavern-Club, may be a good reason for saying 'tis Abusive.  
It seems by their Paper, that they are put under a necessity of holding Meetings (or Conventicles) at Lambeth, in their present difficulties; to advise how to keep good Consciences; which looks as though 'twere no easy thing to them to do it.  
Indeed, They tell us; that they heart'ly and incessantly pray for the Peace, Prosperity and Glory of England, (which is well, tho' as to the words we find them not in their Liturgy) and Methinks we want the Addition of these words under the Auspetious Government of our dread Sovereign Lord and Lady, King William and Queen Mary.  
We are not to seek for their meaning, when they talk of bearing their Cross; but their prating of seeking the good of their Native Country; is so ambignous and uncertain, that for aught I know, should Marshal D. Humiers come, (which God forbid) W. C. would call for the Keys, which he delivered to my L. L. and put them into his Hands; and then conclude that he had done the Church and his Country a great piece of service.  
I do think that 'twas not so much for the sake of Wit or Honesty, as for the well understood word (as they call it) the Wuting; that their Vindication was published; and therefore, I declare, that, rather than see the Throne of our rightful and Lawful King and Queen (who now possess it) overthrown; I shall rejoice to see all who refuse to Pray and Fight for its support, the Witted.  
Their late Reverences declare themselves ready to sacrifice their All to prevent Popery and the Arbitrary Power of France from prevailing over them; for they have the Persecution of the French Protestants fresh in their Memories.  
'Twere to be wished, that these Non-Resisting and Non-Assisting Gentlemen; would now (in their difficulties, and whilst under the Cross) when they tell us that they remember the Persecution of the French Protestants, acknowledge the Error and wickedness of their Persecuting those of England; for till they do so, there are a Censorious sort of People amongst us. who will conclude, that tho' some of our Clergymen, would not have the Arbitrary Power of France to prevail over them; yet that they do wish and hope, by that Power, to prevail over, and yet again to trample upon English Protestants.  
When Mr Randal Taylor emits his next Paper, which is to declare the Absent Brother of Glocester's concurrence, I shall endeavour to read it at a more seasonable hour, and to find a little more leisure than I now have, to speak to this Point.
