I Believe in _John Calvin_, the Father of our Religion, disposer of
{**} Heaven and {*} Earth; and in _Owen_, _Baxter_ and _Jenkins_
&c. his dear Sons our Lords, who were Conceived by the _Spirit_
of _Fanaticism_, born of _Schism_ and _Faction_, suffer'd under
the _Act of Uniformity_; were Silenced, Dead and Buried; and had
descended into Hell, but that they arose again in the year of
_Toleration_; ascended into _Tub-Pulpits_, and now sit at the
right hand of the Lord S---- from whence they are coming to judge
both the _Church_ and the _State_. I Believe in the Holy _Assembly
of Divines_, the Holy _National Synod_, the _Seperate Meetings_,
the _Act of Oblivion_, the _Resurrection from Dead Rites_, and
_Toleration Everlasting_. Amen.
_The Ten Commandments._
The same which _John Presbyter_ hath spoken in 20 Chapters of his
_Works_; saying, _I am the Lord thy God, which brought thee out of
the Land of Antichrist, out of the House of Ceremonious Bondage_.
I.
Thou shalt have no other Gods but Me.
II.
Thou shalt not make any Image, or likeness of any _Saint_ in
Heaven above, (except _S. Oliver &c._) or bow down at the Adorable
name of _Jesus_ here on Earth; nor use the Sign of the _Cross_ in
the _Waters of Baptism_; For I the Lord thy God in my Jealousie
murder'd the Father, and will visit his _Superstitious Iniquity_
upon his Children, unto the third and fourth Generation of them
that hate me; but shew Mercy unto thousands in them that love me,
and keep my Damnable and Rebellious Commandments.
III.
Thou shalt not make the _Solemn League_ and _Covenant_ vain, nor
subscribe the _Declaration;_ nor take the Oaths of _Allegiance_ and
_Supremacy_, unless (with a Jesuitical _salvo_,) to obtain places
of Honour and Power.
IV.
Remember that thou keep holy the Remembrance of Forty One. Many
years didst thou labour, yet could'st not do all that thou hadst
to do; But in _Forty One_ the Lord thy God sent thee a Sabbath of
Deliverance; Thou shalt therefore now remember to do all manner of
work that thou didst then, Thou, and thy Son, and thy Daughter, thy
Man-Servant, and thy Maid-Servant, the Brutes and Proselytes that
are within thy Conventicles; For in _Forty One_ the Lord thy God
made ENGLAND and SCOTLAND Rebellious; thou shalt therefore Bless
the year Forty One; and hallow it.
V.
Honour _Fanaticism_ thy Father, and _Schism_ thy Mother, that thy
Days may be long in the Land which the Lord thy God will once more
give thee.
VI.
Thou shalt do no Murder, but upon _Majesty_, _Episcopacy_ and
_Loyalty_.
VII.
Thou shalt not commit Adultry, save with the _Holy Sisterhood_, to
get Babes of Grace.
VIII.
Thou shalt not steal, unless by _Sequestration_, _Composition_, or
_Publick Faith_.
IX.
Thou shalt not bear False witness against a _Brother_, but may'st
swallow Perjury by a Popish Reservation for the good of Holy Cause.
X.
