England's Alarm: or, a most humble declaration, address, and fervent
petition to his most Excellent Majesty Charles the Second, King of
Great Britain and Ireland; and to his most honourable and grand
Council the Parliament of England; as also to the City of London,
and the whole nation in general. Concerning the great Overtures,
Catastrophes, and Grand Occurrences about to inundate and pour in
upon us, as the Judgments of Almighty God upon Antichrist and his
adherents, and the Pride, Nauseancy, and Errour of Professors, in the
years 1680 and 1681. Written by a true lover of the true Protestant
Religion, and of his Tottering poor Native Country of England
_Johannes Philangus_.
London. Printed for Thomas Pasham, in Fleet Lane. 1679.
This book is ascribed by the compilers of the Catalogue of the
Museum Library to William Petyt; and there are several other
productions of Johannes Philangus; but it does not appear upon what
authority Petyt is considered the author. A copy is preserved in
the British Museum Library. It is in folio, and contains six pages.
For printing this work a prosecution was instituted against James
Cottrell, a printer of the parish of St. Sepulchre in London.
The information charges that he, being a pernicious person, and
contriving and maliciously intending to create discord and scandal
between the King and his people, and the nobles of the kingdom, did
on the twenty sixth day of March in the thirty second year of the
reign of King Charles the Second, at the parish of St. Sepulchre
in the City of London publish and cause to be published a false
scandalous and malicious libel intituled _England's Alarm, &c._ (as
in title), containing among other things as follows: _Remember,
England, if thou art not mad drunk with the Whores Charms how that
thy preaching Ministers are turn'd into dumb Dogs and ravening
Wolves. And they bear rule by thy means, and thou lovest to have it
so._[235]
