ENGLAND'S DELIVERANCE.  
THe mercies of our God are manifold, as may be plainly seen, by this strange Discovery, which he hath made known in a most miraculous manner, for which we of England, and all true Protestants have just cause to praise God, and to cry out with David, Lord what is man that thou art mindful of him: or the Son of man that thou regardest him? What are we sinners that thou shouldest protect us? what have we done, worth this great deliverance? Surely the mercies of our God, are manifold, and his love endureth for ever, as may appear in this affair which I am now to discourse of.  

The manner of the Plot, and how it pleased God to bring it to light.  
ON Monday being the fifteenth day of November, it happened that a poor man being necessitated, and wanting a lodging, fearing Officers, and being imprisoned was constrained to take up his lodging in a Ditch, near the Pest-house, where lying, some small time, two Gentlemen came and lay down upon the bank, who after they had lain so me small time, began to discourse of business of eminent danger, which induced this poor man to give ear to their discourse, and softly to creep by degrees nearer and nearer, so that he could easily understand their discourse, and their intentions.   

The substance of their discourse.  
Their discourse was this, That they wondered that their friend did not come and declare what Noblemen they were, that were to be cut off in this enterprise: withal, the manner how they should proceed in their attempt, and many other things of dangerous consequence, which made the poor man very desirous to see what outsides those men had, that were so fraught with Treason: At last rising up hastily, he was discovered by the men, whose guilt and fear to be known, urged them so far, that they 〈◊〉 ready to add Murder to Treason: as if that had not been enough to sink them into the bottomless pit of endless misery: For immediately one of them drew his sword and ran at the innocent man and wounded him dangerously, so that he fell down, as if he were killed, then immediately they ran away. The poor man when they were gone, got up as well as he could and came to some members of the house of Parliament, and discovered it, whereupon the house then sent out three Warrant for to take three French men which they did suspect, who being taken were brought to the Parliament house the 16. day of November, and upon their examinations there was command given that the Earl of Worcester's house in the Strand should be guarded, and Sr Basill-Brooks, because they did suspect that a Papist Priest was harboured there, which was a chief incendiary and inventor of this treachery.  
Likewise it was ordered by the House of Commons that forces should be raised with all speed to secure the I'll of Wight.  
1 That their should be an account taken of all the Papists about London.  
2 There was two Lords nominated that should be appointed to raise forces to secure the Kingdom, one beyond Trent and the other on this side Trent, and for all other officers they are to be apppointed by the Parliament.  
3 That there should be a privy scarch made for the priest aforesaid, in the house of the Earl of Worcester and Sr Basill Brooke & to prevent further mischief there is a guard set about them by the command of the house of Parliament.   

Being the 16. of November  
Likewise this day there was an order from the Parliament, for disarming of Papists, and for the better proceeding they began at my Lord Peter in Aldersgate-street.  
This is the whole relation of this great deliverance which it hath pleased God to lay open and bring to knowledge, wherefore let us praise God, for though our enemies are innumerable, though our troubles be many, yet the Lord delivers us out of all, let us amend our lives, let us truly repent, let us not displease so gracious a father, so gracious a redeemer, let us bless God for the means of our deliverance, let us bless God for our gracious King. let us bless God for this happy Parliament: and last of all let us pray for the establishment of Religion, let us love one another, and live in unity and peace together, so shall God protect us and bless us here one earth, and crown us with eternal glory in the Kingdom of heaven.
