He urges the deposing of King Edward the Second and in pag. 80. he makes another traiterous president of the deposing of King Richard the Second but he never mentions the mischiefes that this Kingdome endured by those wicked paracidicall Villanes I will reckon a few of them First Parson John Ball with Wat Titler Jack Straw and Jack Shepheard arose in rebellion c.

One Blewbeard was a Captain of Rebells but they were quickly foil'd some hanged and some taken and for a token of remembrance James Fiennes Lord Say then Lord Treasurer of England was found guilty of many Treasons and handsomely hanged in the 29. yeare of King Henry the Sixth After that Jack Cade a Bricklayer and withall a counterfeit Mortimer did then as some of his Tribe do now tax the King with evill Counsellours thus Cade raised an Army of Rebells which were not supprest without the losse of 5000 men besides other outrages committed Anno 1454. As the Battaile of S. Albans betwixt the Yorkifts and Lancastrians King Henry the Sixth lost 8000 men and the Duke of York 6000.

He quotes the falling away of the ten Tribes from Rehoboam for a president for Rebellion page 88. all along he mentions the deposing of wicked Popes page 9. he repeates the words of Caiphas That it was expedient that one should die for the people though a King yea Christ the King of Kings that the whole Nation perish not rather then the whole Nation perish for him O thou blasphemous beast Doest thou so farre hate the Lord 's Anointed as to justifie the crucifying of our Saviour in expression of thy malice to thy Soveraigne Good Sir there is no such necessity that either the King or Subject should die one for another or that they should so much as distaste each other nor had this lamentable Distraction been between them but that your delicate Master the Devill hath by your meanes set them at Division In his 91. page he speakes some Truth That the King hath not power to tyrannize over his Subiects or to oppresse them with perpetuall irremediable slavery Good Master Gandergoose 't is confest that the King hath no such power nor ever did he exercise any such Tyranny as you talke of but you and your Accomplices have usurped a Traiterous power to your selves whereby yee have tyrannized over his Majesties Subjects in more savage and barbarous manner than Turkes or Tartars would have done page 92. Prinne speakes a parcell of non-sense in capital Letters It is lawfull for the people submitting themselves to subscribe the King and his Successours what Law they please O! what might this fellowes Head be worth at a hard Siege when one of his Brothers Heads was sold at Samaria for 80 pieces of Silver 2. King 6. 25. Pag. 97. he saith that King Edward the sixth and Queen Elizabeth did hold their Crownes by Parliamentary title rather then by the course of common Law Baw waw indeed their Legitimacie was objected against by some opulent Papists because their Father the King had married the Lady Katherin who was first his Brother Arthurs wife and after 21 yeares marriage the King caused her to be divorc'd from him and he marrying other wives in her life time the Childrens Right by birth was by some Malignants questionable to cleare which doubts the King caused their Legitimacie to be confirmed by Act of Parliament and so much in Answer to that absurd Treason Pag. 101. he saies Charles the third Emperour was deposed by the Princes Dukes and Governours of Germany because he was mad Surely thou art not well in thy wits to meddle with that mad Emperour whose madnesse or deposing concernes neither thee nor thy mad Cause thou pratest and liest so in then he talkes of Wenceslaus the Emperour and Childerick King of France how they were both depos'd And yet in the 104 pag. he confesses the King hath no Peere He is not to have a Superiour and that the King ought not to be under man but God If Justice be demanded of him by way of Petition because no Writs runnes against him if he doe not Iustice this punishment may be sufficient to him that God will revenge it and yet presently again he saies the Parliament is above the King Thus you see how sometimes the Devill gives him leave to speake truth against his will though presently he fall from it againe as being not toothsome was ever such a Crop-eard Asse that would thus contradict himselfe In the 106 pag. he saies the Emperours had not highest power in

Rome and yet he cannot deny that Saint Paul appeal'd to Caesar from whom there was no appeale In the 112 and last page he calls the Rebells that the Kings Forces took at Ciceter good People he complaines much of their hard usage I think he meanes because they were not hanged it was winter he saies and that they were forced to goe barefooted in Triumph to Oxford truly we are beholding to your Faction for the kind entertainment you have given to the Kings good Subjects when you have taken them you have either lovingly cut their Throats in cold blood or courteously hang'd thē or hospitably famish'd them freely imprisoned them bountifully rob'd and plunder'd them and favourably banish'd ruin'd and undone them and all this and more you have done for the Liberty of the Subject by the command of the Publique Faith Moreover he saies that the good People from Cirencester were Chain'd together with Ropes that 's a Bull Sir I doubt not but there will come a time when young Grigge shall teach thee in a trice with a trick that he hath what the difference is betweene a Chaine and a Rope and so I leave Repeating and Paraprasing any more on Prinnes most matchlesse first of his foure Proditorious parts The Reader may wonder why I spend no more Paper about the first part and I doubt all his whole Book is not worthy of so much But I assure you when I had surveyed every limbe of the Monster and pared of the excrescences I had much adoe to finde thus much considerable matter in it yet I am resolved to doe him the honour and afford him the patience to view his second part if it be but for love to his new Hebrew word the Militia for if his Brethren understood that it were Latine the language of the Beast they would never endure the use of it An Answer to Prinnes second Part of his Soveraigne Power of Parliament IN his Preface he complaines of Ignorance ah ungratious Boy dost thou raile against thy Mother in such as understand not a Parliament and that his Books he hopes will be get a firme Peace Indeed he that made light out of darknesse is able to produce good out of evill but how Prinnes Bookes stuffed as full of lies as lines wherein every word breathes Treason every syllable incites to Rebellion and the whole Chaos and confused masse of it is an unshap'd lump of all the Villanies Assassinations Murders Treasons Rebellions Deposings Imprisonments and all the calamities that hath befalne to infortunate Kings and Princes in all Nations either Christians or others since the worlds creation at least as much as his treacherous studious search could finde out he hath pack'd and hudled together purposely to root out and ruinate His sacred Majesty and Royall Posterity to raise a never ending Contention and to make His Majesties Dominions perpetuall fields of blood these are the marrow pith and intention of M. Prinnes sweet Peace-making Bookes At the latter end of his Preface he uses a piece of the Letanie saying Good Lord deliver us But I wish him to take heed that it come not to the hearing of the Members or the Close Committee that he spake such words for then he will be mistaken for a Protestant and so excluded from all grace favour and community with the godly Pag. 3. In this second part you may finde out of Prinnes owne Confession First conveniency second necessity and thirdly custome all concurring for the Kings ordering of the Militia Take heed M. Prinne what you say for if M. Saint-Johns and your Masters of the highest lower House heare you they may perhaps occasion a conference betwixt you and Tom Nash his Ghost to be cryed up and downe the streets as they dealt with your betters before you and if your good Mistresses in London understand it farewell all further Contribution your late Triumphant Bayes will be turn'd to Funerall Ewghe and if you can mend the matter no better then you doe by begging the Question and arguing so barrenly to wit that it must be granted that the whole power of his Majesty and his Predecessors in the Militia was derived from the Parliament This stuffe he treates on from the third pag. to the twelfth wherein he crosses all that he saies in the third pag. formerly repeated but if you can confirme your fine flourishes no better then by Equivocations Amphibologies and mysticall Sophisticall Fallacies by one while taking the Parliament for King and People as in the usuall sense it ought to be taken and the Lawes made by them all And another while making use of the word Parliament in your owne sense onely for the two Houses in contradiction to the King your Grant must be onely to have and to hold sixe foot in Knaves Acre under an overthwart beame for you hate the name of the Crosse on the highest Promontorie in the Province of Foolciana or if it light in the line of Communication as a speciall part of that Province is scituated neare to them then your Grant may be to have as much roome for your Quarters as you had for your Eares and that your Head may be mounted on London Bridge and made one of the overseers of the City which by your writings seemes to be a speciall part of your Ambition I am sure a just Reward of your most unmatchable undertakings Pag. 12. As for the consequence of denying His Majesty the Militia and of the Parliaments seizing upon Hull with other Ports Forts the Royall Navy Armes Ammunition Revenues and detaining them still from His Majesty which you say His Majesty and all Royalists must necessarily yeild nay you should have entreated to have them yeilded out of curtesie for else you can never inforce them are not his but the Kingdomes in point of Right and Interest they being first transferd to and placed in his Predecessors and himselfe by Parliament Here is an excellent proofe Weaker then that of Tenterton Steeple being the cause of Goodwine Sands for say those Logitians there were no such dangerous Sands before that Steeple was built or sunke so that Steeple was the cause of those Sands but I can conclude more directly and contrariò as thus The Kings of England had alwayes power over the Militia ever since England had a King there But there was a King of England before there was any Parliament and so soon as there is story of any people in England Therefore the Parliament gave not the King of England power over the Militia If the story of Brute be true my Maior cannot be false if any Chronicle of England be true my Minor will not faile how then the conclusion can be denyed I perceive not except in the disputation betwixt the Collier and the Divell which I leave to Prinnes Logick to resolve and reduce the Contradictory by Impossibility which if he doe not in Celarent he cannot escape doing it in Bocardo where I leave him to read

21. 1. Thus have I with lesse than Herculean labour in six dayes cleansed this Augean Stable of all the noysome filth that Prinne had raked in many weeks from all the dung-hils in the world all which Merdur●nous Mucke I have laid at the doores of the right Owners viz. Master Prinne and his Members I have been fain to encounter with him in the darke for his Margins hath been so thatched with abused and wrested Authours that as the Grand Signior had so many thousands of Arrowes to shower at once upon the Christians that they obscured the Sunne and darkened the Firmament yet there was roome enough under the shadow of those Arrowes to fight in a good Cause and foile the Turkes so I in the Cymerian umbrage of this Cloud of Testimones have cop'd with him and in the Combate so bruised him that three of his small guts are dislocated the Vertigo taking possession of his pulsive Brain-pan and as I was certified he takes a Diet next his heart every morning five spoonfull of warme Cow-dung mixed with Earwigs compounded Caterpillers and the Marrow of a Salt Bitch so that there is some hope that he will recover but never be his own man again yet he may live longer than a Cat or a Dogge or a better thing If I had had any correspondency with him I could have furnished him with Authours Testimonies Witnesses and Proofes more suitable for his foure Parts and his Great Seale too as Laz●●ill● de Tormes Don Quixot Gusman de Alfarech Bevis of Hamp●on The mirrour of Knighthood John Dorry the ancient Bards Druides Peripatetickes Stoickes Epicureans and Gymnosophists these learned Thebanes would have been so suitable to his writings that their

Game and Geare goes they are unwilling to be sealed for fooles and pay for the sealing too Therefore because it is like to proue a dead market with the New Great Seale and that wax is deare I advise to save that charge and seale with Butter I have heard of Obligations sealed so in the Welch marches or if that thrifty device faile your Seale will make an excellent mould to make Wafer Cakes or cast well kneaded Ginger-●read in There are divers other necessary uses which it may be put to which I leave to thy grave and ingenious studious consideration How now my running-witted tolling-headed taling tongu'd rattle-brain'd Round-head How likest thou this ve●●ie Wilt thou have another bows If thou darest but take up the cudgels once more as good as thou thinkest thy selfe at Defensive Armes I le fetch thee about like a Iack-an-apes over and under his Chaine so that all the Gentlemen Spectatours who shall be Iudges shall not onely passe their sentence on my side that I have sufficiently dry-bast●d thee but I will let thy humours bloud for the Simples in the head-vein and break thy Mazz●rd so soudly that all the world shall see that thou hast but a craz'd Pericranium and so somewhat commiserating thy distracted condition I in a small degree of true charity leave thy excessive imaginary zeale to farewell and behang'd What should any man say more to his Friend William Prinne A Prophecy A Prophecy concerning the precedent Answer found in a Whirle-poole three Leagues below the bottome of the Ocean by a diver who was sent thither in these times of necessity for Pym's purse which because he found guarded by Hampden's Ghost he could not bring for that had been enough to have redeemed all this Isle except himselfe but he brought this from a pennon whereon it was hanging

generall Conclusions drawn from particular examples and from most notable Non-sense that in the Times and Acts of Rebellion parallelld for the most part from and in the Nadir or Altitude of his Pride shall write with the Rayes of a Comet that he hath copiously confuted all Royallists Malignants Papists clamorous Objections and Primitive Exceptions against the Proceedings of this present Parliament in foure severall Treatises lately published concerning the Soveraigne Power of Parliaments and Kingdomes which hath given good satisfaction to many and silenced the Tongues and Pennes of most Anti-Parliamenteers who have been so ingenious as seriously to peruse them then shall a holy water Clerke of Thetis contract his Iliades into a rotten nut-shell and inspired with ability rightly to

sterill as to be all this while pumping to answer his Traiterous lying Pamphlets but let him and them know that this my Booke was written in October last 1643. when their Saviour Pym was alive which had he then been dead I had not mentioned many alterations have happened since my writing and the printing part of it before the end of December last but I being extremely stroken lame and the Presse and Printers full of worke of greater consequence than to curry Crop-ear'd Iades till now and as I have formerly handled Booker the Proditorious Prediction-monger and Mr Prinne the unutterable utter Barrester or rather the Kingdomes Common Embarrater so have I also written Answers to the nimble villanious quicke pretty little witted Mercurius Britanicus the Scottish Dove Pigeon or Widgeon the Scout and all the Rabble of lying railing Rascals and Rebells all these things are laid like rods in pisse till I can get them printed and could I but have meanes and the Presse leasure I dare undertake with my poore Goose quill to stop the mouthes or cut the throates of all the seditious Pulpitteers and roguish Pamphletteers in England or else I would lose my labour FINIS
