A90657	Veritas inconcussa or, a most certain truth asserted, that King Charles the First, was no man of blood, but a martyr for his people. Together with a sad, and impartial enquiry, whether the King or Parliament began the war, which hath so much ruined, and undone the kingdom of England? and who was in the defensive part of it? By Fabian Philipps Esq;; King Charles the First, no man of blood: but a martyr for his people.	Philipps, Fabian, 1601-1690.	1660 (1660)	Wing P2020; Thomason E1925_2; ESTC R203146	66,988	269

accusers themselves were only guilty of When Bradshaw himself like the Jews High Priest confessing a truth against his will in the words which he gave in stead of reason for murthering the King against the will and good liking of more then 9. parts in every ●0 of the people of England could make his Masters that call themselves the Parliament of England to be no better then the Tribuni plebis of Rome and the Ephori of Sparta the former of which for manifold mischiefs and inconveniences were abrogated and laid aside and never more thought fit to be used and the latter not being half so bad as our new State Gipsies killed and made away to restore the people again to their Liberties But the opinion and judgement of the Learned Lord Chief Justice Popham who then little thought his grand-child Collonel Popham should joyn with those that sat with their Hats on their heads and directed the murther of their Soveraign and if he were now living would sure enough have hanged him for it and those other learned Judges in the case and Tryal of the Earl of Essex in the Reign of Queen Elizabeth That b an intent to hurt the Soveraign Prince as well as the Act of it was Treason And that the Laws of England do interpret every act of Rebellion or Treason to aim at the death or deposing the Prince For that Rebels by their good will never suffer that King or Prince to live or Reign that understands their purposes and may revenge them agreeable to that of the Civil Law That they that go about to give Law to their Prince will never suffer him to recover Authority to punish it and the opinion of Mr. St. John the late Kings Sollicitor General in his argument against the Earl of Strafford at a conference in a Committee of both Houses of Parliament That the intending advising or declaring of a War is Treason of compassing the Kings death that an endeavour to subvert the fundamental Laws and Government of England and introduce a Tyrannical Government against Law is Treason that an intention to alter Laws or Government is Treason that the insurrection of Wat Tiler and some of the Commons in the Reign of King R. 2. though varnished and coloured over with an oath quod Regi Communibus fidelitatem servarent That they would be true and faithful to the King and Commonalty was in Parliament declared to be Treason and that a machination or plotting a War is a compassing the death of the King as that which necessarily tends to the destruction both of the King and of the people That it is Treason to counterfeit the great Seal and that the exciting of people to take Arms and throw down all the inclosures of the Kingdom though nothing was done in pursuance thereof was in Easter Term 39. Eliz. resolved by all the Iudges of England to be a war intended against the Queen are now written in the blood of the King those many iterated complaints of the King in several of His Declarations published to the people in the midst of the Parliaments greatest pretences and promises that they intended to take away His life and ruine Him are now gone beyond suspicion and every man may know the meaning of their Canoneers levelling at the King with perspective glasses at Copredy bridge the acquitting of Pym the In-keeper who said he would wash his hands in the Kings Heart Blood stifling of 15. or 16. several indictments for treasonable words Rolfe rewarded for his purpose to kill him and the prosecutors checqued and some of them imprisoned for it For the Sun in the Firmament and the four great quarters of the Earth and the Shapes and Lineaments of man are not so universally known seen or spoken of as this will be most certain to the present as well as after ages The end hath now verified the beginning and Quod primum suit in intentione ultimo loco agitur Seven years hypocritical Promises and Practises seven years Pretences and seven years mistaken preaching and pratling have now brought us all to this conclusion as well as Confusion The blood of old England is let out by a greater witchcraft and cousenage then that of Medea when she set Pelias daughters to let out his old blood that young might come in the place of it the Cedars of Lebanon are devoured and the Trees have made the Bramble King and are like to speed as well with it as the Frogs did with the Stork that devoured them they have not only slain the King who was their Father but like Nero ript up the belly of the Common-Wealth which was their Mother The light of Israel is put out and the King Laws Religion and Liberties of the people murdered an action so horrid and a sin of so great a magnitude and complication as if we shall ask the days that are past and enquire from the one end of the Earth to the other there will not be found any wickedness like to this great wickedness or hath been heard like it The Seavern Thames Trent and Humber four of the greatest Rivers of the Kingdom with all their lesser running streams of the Island in their continual courses and those huge heaps of water in the Ocean and girdle of it in their restless agitations will never be able to scour and wash away the guilt and stain of it though all the rain which the clouds shall ever bring forth and impart to this Nation and the tears of those that bewail the loss of a King of so eminent graces and perfection shall be added to it Quis cladem illius diei quis funera fando Explicet aut possit lachrymis aequare dolores Gens antiqua ruit multos dominata per Annos FINIS a Order 3.

great part of them either by Rebellion or an accursed Newtrality helped to ruine him and when he knew whatsoever Conditions or Propositions he should be forced to yield unto would by the Law of God as well as the Civil and Common Law the Laws of Nature and Nations and the dictates of every common mans reason and apprehension have been void in the very making of them and could not have reached to his posterity and that if he would but have surrendred up his people and gone along with their new masters in their Arbitrary and Tyrannical government as some of His last words upon the Scaffold plainly intimate and sided with 20. or 30. of the Faction and delivered up the Sheep to the Wolves he might no doubt have had a good part of the Fleece to his own share or but have pleased himself with revenge delivered up a people to Slavery who were at so much expence of Treasure and Blood and their own Souls to bring their Soveraign to it might have worn the title of a King and played the wanton with Sardanapalus in the company and delight of women pleased his palate with Vitellius his pride if he had any with Bassianus his cruelty if he could ever have been guilty of it with Commodus and with Childerick the lazy King of France in a Chariot deck't with garlands whilst others governed for him been at certain times of the year onely exhibited to the people and like the Minotaure of Creete wallowed in the labyrinth of Parliament priviledges and devoured his people did notwithstanding refuse to do any thing that might help himself either to purchase his own quiet or so great a Liberty and would neither for any good which might come to himself or any evil that might be cast upon him and his posterity be perswaded or threatned from the protection of His People who if He had not taken more care for them then they did for themselves must if He had yielded to all the Parliament Propositions for then they might have imagined mischief by a Law have from time to time been engaged in any War that their task-masters had a mind to put them upon must have been excised plundred sequestred ruined and undone sworn and forsworn constrayned to swear to do a thing to day and the next day swear not at all to do it The son set to kill his Father and brothers forced to fight one against another and have all their holy-dayes turned to thanks-giving days that they are undone or fasting dayes that they may be undone soon enough And if at any time that thing they call a Parliament should think it fit to make a directory to the Alchoran and to order every man to turn Turk and the King as their Henry Scobel or Town Cleark but subscribe it their Spiritual as well as their Temporal Estate and their Souls as well as their Bodies must be voted and forced to it And now let the People that have tasted too much of such a kind of happiness and are like to continue in it as long as their misery-makers can by any help of the Devil or his angels hold them to it consider whether they or their forefathers though some have thought themselves to have wit enough to adventure to call them fools were the wiser whether they that setled the government and were contented with it or they that pulled it in pieces and whether the tearing up of the fundamental Laws of Monarchy Peerage Parliament and Magna Charta ever since the day the King was murthered for defending of them which every one but themselves desired to uphold be not enough besides the Scottish combination and the plots to ruine Monarchy and the King His posterity before they had so far engaged themselves in it to inform them if nothing else had been demonstrated unto them That the King did all He could to preserve the Laws Religion and Liberties of the people which divers pieces of His coyn will help to perpetuate the truth as well as the memory of and the Parliament all they could to destroy them And that as He actually endeavoured to defend them so they have as actually undone and destroyed them And let the greatest search of History that can be made or time it self be Judge if ever any War was more made in the defensive or upon juster grounds or greater necessities or if ever any King before fought for the Liberties of those He was to govern and for Laws to restrain himself withall or if it were possible for him to suffer so much in any mans opinion as to have it thought to be unlawful or that He was a murderer of His people for seeking to protect them How shall any King or Magistrate be able to bear or use the sword when they themselves shall be in continual danger to be beaten with it King Edward the 2. of England was not murdered for the blood that was shed in the Barons wars though some of them had drawn their swords but in performance of his fathers will to take away his favorite Gaveston from him King Rich. 2. in those many devised Articles charged against him was not deposed for the blood was shed in Wat Tilers Commotion nor Hen. 6. publiquely accused for that of Jack Cades rebellion and the most bloody differences of the White and Red Roses nor Queen Elizabeth for all that was spilt in reducing Ireland when her favorite the Earl of Essex made it to be the

Common-wealth the great Henry of France was not endeavoured by his Catholick Subjects to be brought to trial for shedding so much of their blood to reduce them to his obedience nor by his Protestant Subjects after he was turned Catholique for spending so much of their blood to another purpose then they intended it Nor have the stout-hearted Germans though many of them great and almost free Princes in their late peace and accord made betwixt the Swedes and the Emperor thought it any way reasonable or necessary to demand reparation for those millions of men women and children houses and
