A True Relation of the SENTENCE and CONDEMNATION of Thomas Dangerfield, at the King's Bench Bar, for his horrid Crimes and Perjuries. THE Great Mystery of Iniquity being now in a great measure laid open, and the long Fanatical Vizor to shroud their own Hellish Designs, under the pretended Danger of Popery and Arbitrary Power, that old Stolen cheat, that so lately brought the best of Monarches to a Scaffold, and Three flourishing Kingdoms to Confusion, being now taken off; it has pleased Heaven to bring the Blackest of Villains, and Vilest of Impostors, the late infamously memorable Titus Oats, to some part of a Punishment for his most egregious and unexampled Delusions and Perjuries. And Truth and Reason beginning to run in their right Channel again, one of the junior Imps of this signior Belzebub, viz. Thomas Dangerfield, has been also brought to taste the same lash with him. Now as there's a certain way of Eternising a Man's Name, as well by the blackest of Impieties, as the brightest of Virtues; and one single Judas shall be as long remembered, and recorded, as the whole Twelve Apostles; o● whether one Devil or all of them (which is most likely) had a hand in hardening the Fronts, and searing the Consciences of our late Saviour's of the Nation (the Discoverers of the Pretended Popish Plot) to bring them to the Kissing of Bibles, Swallowing of Oaths and Sacraments, the barbarous shedding of Innocent Blood, and the renouncing of Heaven and Eternity; and all to misled a Jealous unthinking Kingdom to Lunacy and Madness, and consequently, to Treason and Rebellion, and so in a fair way to Hell and Damnation, it matters not. But in short our Grand Beukblawer, Titus, that truly Original of the kind, came upon our Blind side with hi● Popish Discovery, a little (as a Man may say) like a Juggler of Skill. For though Invisible Commissions, to rais● Invisible Armies; whole Thousands of Armed Papists, Mustered an● Disciplined underground;, Black Bills, an● Pilgrims innumerable at the very Throats of us; and yet the Devil a Mortal Eye, or indeed a Rational Imagination capable so much as of conceiving the when, where, and how, all these Popish Engines were a working: ye to the credit of little England be it spoken, all this was Sworn to so solemnly, and believed so hearty, an● truly almost so universally by the multitude, That really Garlic and Onions, amongst the old Egyptians, wer● not more easily made Gods of, than Titus his Narrative made Gospel. But though I say all this wonderful Discovery was rendered almost no less than Evangelical, yet the Narrativ● of our True Protestant, Thomas Dangerfield, so far outdoes him, That nothing certainly can be more stupendously miraculous: For how wide soever was the large English swallow, and how Romantic soever was Titus Discovery, the Gorgon was still of a piece: and Oats, with the softer Front of Brass, was graciously pleased give us a plain and manifest Compurgation of his present Majesty, from so much as a Thought of Conspiring again his Brother; instancing the careful conduct of the Jesuits, in concealing the whole Plot from him, as conscio●… of the untaintable Integrity, and Loyalty of so Faithful a Friend and Dear a Brother. Nay, he w●… so far from being suspected even the least pliable to their Popish Designs, That the same Death that was intent his Brother, was threatened Him also; and no less than the whole Race of the Stuarts, expressly in his Narrativ● Root and Branch to be extirpated by the Popish Conspirators. But to confront all this, up starts Dangerfield, and since Swearing was grown so beneficial, and every 〈◊〉 Projector ought to out-shoot the first Bolt; very briskly, with an Impudence even beyond Oats himself, Forges such a Mass of Villainy, not to be named without Execration and Horror. The hideous Contexture of his whole Libelous Narrative, to confirm this Diabolical piece of Perjury, is all much of the same Infernal Hue; That, in short, it has long since answered itself. Nay, in the very heigh of the late True Protestant Implicit Faith, the highest ferment of the then Reigning Phanaticism, and when most every thing went down, our Dangerfield so far overacted the true Protestant Plot Evidence in his wh●… Narrative, that the very Faction that set up the Tool, and who at that time of day had Insolence enough, ev●● to Depose Princes, were, nevertheless so modest, and indeed, so ashamed of our Captain Willoughby's, alias Dangerfield's Discovery, That they laid it aside as Waste Paper, and never so much as endeavoured to start up Testimony, though for their dearest darling Idol the Exclusion Bill, and the Propagation of the most sac●●● Good Old Cause. This was the Discoverer, and this the Monster, that now Justice has brought to his too mu●● merited Public Shame and Infamy. See here the Minor Vndergraduate Tool, Takes his Degree i'th' Doctor's Flogging School: Whilst the brisk Captain does in state advance, To Titus his Old Jig, the Tyburn Dance. March, honest Catch, devoutly his by side, And Discipline, dear Jack, his Perjured Hide. The outward Man of Sin's within thy Power; But the soul inside let the Devil scour. This may be Printed.
