A Hue and Cry AFTER THE Abdicated B— of E— Who has lately withdrawn himself from Justice. THese are to give Notice, That whereas a Court-fawning, A'the— Indulging, False-hearted, Selfish, Matchivilian, Insinuating, Levitical Jacobite has lately withdrawn himself from the places of his usual Residence (God knows whither!) These are to give Notice, That if any manner of Person, Man, Woman, or Child, Protestant or Papist, Christian or Pagan, Williamite or Jacobite, can give any Tidings of the said Non-obedient, Active, Resisting Reverend Father, so that he be brought back alive, to receive the just Reward of his late Actions, shall have a Pecuniary Gratification of 5000 French Crowns. But that you may not mistake, either in the Person or Character, I will describe him in his proper Colours, which are as changeable as his Religion and Allegiance. This Grand Incendiary of credulous Bigotism, (contrary to the Principles of a good Christian) changed, like the Chameleon, to the prevailing Colours, and (like a Lobster stewed in his own Sweat) turned in a moment from Black to Red. And now you will find the pretended Holy Father of the W— d transformed into a Bully of the Sword. This Impostor of his Holy Order, this Shame to his most excellent Profession, and scandal to all Protestants, particularly to the best constituted Church in the World, of which he lately pretended himself a Member, you will find him in the Habit of a Soldier; his Black Gown and Laun converted into a Scarlet Cloak, his Holy Vest into an embroidered Coat, his Canonical Girdle into a glittering fringed Scarf, and Sable Hatband into a Scarlet Feather. In this Heroic Equipage (they say) he was met upon the Road, in Company with several of his deluded Jacobites, taking his way to the nearest Seaport for France, in order to appear In propria Persona at the Court, to give his two Masters St. Lewis and St. James a Verbal Account at large of what was more briefly contained in his two Treasonable Letters lately seized. He is long Visaged, lank black Hair of his own, (but now in a Flaxen Periwig) indifferent tall and slender, fawning Looks, flattering Smiles, a false Heart, deceitful Tongue. He cares no more for the Church than for the Koran, but yet he Worships the Church-Lands: He's a main Incendiary and Politic Jacobite, one who for a long time has made it his Business to Buoy up and encourage credulous Bigots, that pin their Faith, without Examination, upon their Instructors, and believe that all they say is Gospel. He loves to shelter himself under the Wings of Tyranny and Popery, 〈◊〉 great Admirer of his Young Master Heliogavalus, His Welsh Highness. He cares not whom he amuses, and whose Example he follows, so he may but have the Honour to stand fair with his Masters Lewis and James. He is a Don of King, James' own peculiar Promotion when Duke of York, and one of his Cabinet-Council during the Reign of King Charles the Second, at which time he could never study for harkening after News; in Parliament time a constant Man crowding in the Court of Requests, or Lobby of the House of Lords, cringing and fawning on some Grand Debauchee or Atheistical Bravo. He was lately Chairman to a Numerous Club or Gang of Jacobites that haunt— House in Shoals, where they sit croaking, like Frogs in March, against the Government. He Idolizeth King James as the Heathens did their False Gods, first make the Idol, and then Worship it. French Tyranny's the Moloch to which he would offer up his own Posterity, and his own Native Country the Place which he would make his Valley Gehinnon. He pretends to be a son of the Church of England, but uses her no better than a Stepmother, to offer the Price of her Preservation for the Redemption of her professed Enemy. In fine, He is one of those I evitical Jacobites, that believe a Popish Prince may do any thing, but abridge them of their Power; if he does that, he is an Vzziah, he has invaded their Properties, and must be turned out of the Temple with a withered Arm; and then 'tis lawful to send for a Prince of Orange to help them, 'tis lawful to devolve the Government into his Hands, and humbly to implore him to take care of their Ark. But no sooner are their Properties safe, and King William by the General Consent of the Nation advanced in his own Right to the Vacant Throne; but they are offended at his Protestant Zeal, tell him they never sent for him to make him their Sovereign, call him King de Facto, slight his Protection, and rather than acknowledge their Deliverer, would put on their Philistine Yoke again. Would you go in pursuit of this Prodigy of Nature, this Grand Incendiary of all our Troubles, who has endeavoured to kindle the Fire, and left us to put out the Flame, keep this Paper by you, and when you meet him, you need not fear knowing the Person; and when taken, deliver him into the Hands of Justice, and you'll certainly receive the Sum (as a just Reward) for so meritorious a Service.
