A discovery of the Popes pride, ambition and cruelty, in a tyrannicall, barbarous and bloudy manner exercised on Emperours, Kings, and kingdomes: the miseries, ruine, and desolations by them brought on the Christian world. With their vitious and unchaste lives, their wicked practices for obtaining the Popedome, by murthers, poysonings, &c. By J.V.

Parry executed for Treason.

IN the yeare 1585. William Parry a Welch-man and Doctor of Law, spake against that Law, which in the Parliament then held, was exhibited, and called it a bloudy Law. Presently after he was accused of practising the Queens death. He confessed voluntarily in the Tower, that having obtained the Queens pardon for breaking into the chamber and wounding one Hare (for which he was condemned) he being a sworne fervant to the Queen. From England he went into France, and was reconciled. Afterward at Ve∣nice, in consultation with Benedict Palmeus, he told him that he had found out a way to help the afflicted Catholikes in England: if the Pope or some

learned Divines would approve it as lawfull. The Jesuite Palmius approved it: Next in France, one Morgan drew him to consent to murder the Queen if it should prove lawfull. This act the Popes Nuntio Ragazonius commen∣ded. Parry afterward having accesse to the Queen, shewed her all, and not long after Cardinall Come his letter approving the enterprise. Now he ta∣keth a new resolution to perform it, encouraged specially by D. Alins Book, teaching that Princes excommunicate are to be spoiled of their Kingdoms and lives. These with many other things, Parry confessed before the Lord Hunsdon, Sr. Christopher Hatton, and Sr. Francis Walsingham. In Westminster Hall the heads of his accusation being read, he confessed himself guilty. He died in the Palace-yard before Westminster Hall, not once calling on the name of God. At this time also Henry Earle of Northumb: for entring into traiterous counsels with Paget and the Guises, to invade England, was cast into the Tower, where he was found dead, being shot with 3. bullets under his left pap, the chamber door bolted in the inside. A pistoll was found in his chamber, and himself the author of his own death. Thus from time to time the most noble Families of England, have bin seduced and ruined by the false and bewitching counsels of Jesuits and Seminaries.
