Historical Archives: Benedict Arnold Is A Modern Day's Anthony Babington

October 4, 2008 | ISSUE 44•41

RESOLV'D

By all Men Good & True, that, to his d—nable Role in seeking to ASSASSINATE our waxing Nation much in the Manner of the Out Rages attempt'd against young Queen Elizabeth;

And for conspiring with the British as if they were Mary Queen of Scots; and for shewing no more Loyalty than any Scoundrel;

That the Dishonorable BENEDICT ARNOLD is a very Modern-Day's ANTHONY BABINGTON, and his name shall be consign'd to Obscurity, and like all Anthony Babingtons, be known only to the Wind, and soil not the Lips of Men, for Ever More.
