IT is a Vulgar Errour, that Miracles are ceas'd in the Reform'd Churches. To confute which Paradox, we shall here produce some (among many) such Demonstrative Arguments & Instances, taken from the acknow­ledg'd Miraculous Discovery of the Popish Plot, made by that Famous Minister of the Gospel, and Learned Dr. of Salamanca T—O—, as none but Papists, and Popishly affected, can have the confidence to deny them.

I. The Doctor (out of pure Zeal to Discover Popish Intrigues,) profest himself a Papist; Renounc'd the Protestant Religion; Ador'd, and Receiv'd the Consecrated Host; took Dreadful Oaths, even upon the Sacrament, to Practice, and Pursue, Most Hellish and Bloody Designs for divers Years to­gether;Stafford's Tryal. Yet all this while remain'd (as he says) a Real, Sincere, and constant Protestant. If this be not a Miracle the Devil's in't

II. The Doctor (good Man) to save His Majesties Life,Oais's Nar­rative. had wheedled the Jesuits out of all their Secrets; He knew the very Time when Groves and Pickering laid daily wait to Shoot the KING; He hourly expected the Horrid Effects of Sir George Wakeman's Poyson; He was privy to the design'd Assassination of the KING at Windsor; He was certain, the Rus­sians were actually upon the Place; He saw the Money sent them for Ex­pedition, And every Moment waited to hear the Fatal Blow was given; Yet (see the wonderful Strangness of the Thing,) Neither the Dr. warn'd the KING of his Eminent Danger, Nor did the KING all this while (God be Thanked) suffer any the least Harm. This is Miracle upon Miracle.

III. The Dr. assures us, There were huge Armies of English Papists, Ibidem. (besides Wild Irish and Spanish Pilgrims,) rais'd for Immediate Service; Yet ('tis strange) not One Man of them ever appear'd: These Swarms of Papists were to be Arm'd with Swords, Guns, Black-Bills, Fire-Balls, &c. Yet none of these Magazines could ever be found. Oats saw, and Deliver'd, not a few Patents, Bulls, and Briefs; He read whole Bushels of Letters & Pac­quets, all containing Damnable Treason; Nay, He could punctually Recite upon his Fingers-ends the Express Words of almost every Letter; Yet (still more strange,) neither He, nor any One for him, could ever produce One single Patent, One Letter, One scrip of Paper, whereby to testifie the Truth of the rest. Here is a whole Heap of Miracless!

IV. The Dr. immediately before His Discovery,Stafford's Tryal. (though he had both the Purses and Lives of the Conspirators at his Command,) Yet at the same Time was ready to Starve, and Beg'd at the Papists Dores for Bread. This is as Strange as if it were a Miracle!

V.Coleman's Tryal. Wakeman's Tryal. The Dr. before the King and Council swore He never knew, nor had seen either Mr. Coleman, or Sir George Wakeman, until he saw them there present at the Gouncil-Board: The like Ignorance of Mr. Corker, or his Concerns, He attested at the Taking of Pickering in the Savoy; Yet at their Several Tryals, He knew them all, and had been their Intimate Aequaintance and Bosom Councellour. This surely is no small Miracle.

VI.Five Jesuits Tryal. The Dr. was Personally in London, and at St. Omers the self-same Time; He saw, and spoke with Mr. Ireland in London, that very Moment Ireland was in Staffordshire. Nay, if This be not sufficient; He was really Present, Disputed, and took Degrees at Salamanca; Yet never was seen or heard there. These are Swingeing Miracles!

VII.Stafford's Tryal. The Dr. Swore before the House of Lords, He had Declar'd all he knew against any Person of what Quality soever in England; Yet af­terwards He accus'd one of the Best & Highest Persons in England of the Blackest Crimes Hell and Malice could ever Invent.The Qu. This, if it be not a Miracle, is at least a Monstrous Prodigy!

VIII.Coleman's Tryal. The Dr. once Depos'd, Mr. Bury was a very Honest Harmless Man; Yet afteswards when the said Bury gave Evidence against Him, He swore he was a Notorious Priest and Jesuit. Castlemains Tryal. This is a Miracle the wrong side outwards.

IX.Colledges last Tryal The Dr. formerly swore Absolute Impossibilites against the Papists in behalf of the King; Now he swears Moral Improbabilities in behalf of Dissenters against the King. This is a Presbyterian Miracle!

X. The Dr. is a Preacher of the Gospel, yet no Christian; A Priest, yet not Baptiz'd. This is little less than a Miracle!

XI. The Dr. swore, that Mr. Elliot (a Minister of the Ch. of England) having been a Circumciz'd Slave, had poison'd his Patrone; Yet, (O Won­der!) the same Patrone is now alive again, and ready to Attest the direct Contrary. Now we hope none will deny, but that the raising of the Dead, is a Grand Miracle!

XII.Before the Company of Weavers. The Dr. Preach'd a Sermon, wherein he affirm'd, The Crucifixion of Christ was not available to Salvation, &c. This indeed is not a Miracle, But it is a piece of the Newest and most Refin'd True-Protestant-Reforma­tion, ever yet came to Light since the Primitive Times of Blasphemy and Atheism, And may justly give a Lustre and Credit to all the other Mi­racles here Attested.

If it be Objected against these solid Proofs; That, for a Profligated Wretch of a lost Conscience and Desperate Fortune, allur'd by Gain, and encourag'd by Indempnities, to Swear palpable Contradictions and Non­sense, is no Great Miracle! It is answer'd; The less the Miracle is in so Swearing, the greater still the Miracle is in being Believ'd; Especially, when Sodomy, Buggery, Felony; Nay, and Perjury too prov'd upon him by his own Supporters,Colledge's Tryal. D—, T— & S—, shrewdly diminish the Credit of His Evidence. This is a Miracle with a Witness.

Thus I have in short (omitting Hundreds of Arguments more of the like Nature) clearly Demonstrated; Not only that our Renowned Dr. and Swea­ring-Master hath wrought Grand Miracles; But also that the Magnitude of the Miracles, and Holiness of the Saint, bear equal Proportion.
