A96861	Anglo-tyrannus, or the idea of a Norman monarch, represented in the paralell reignes of Henrie the Third and Charles kings of England, wherein the whole management of affairs under the Norman kings is manifested, together with the real ground, and rise of all those former, and these latter contestations between the princes, and people of this nation, upon the score of prerogative and liberty. And the impious, abusive, and delusive practises are in short discovered, by which the English have been bobbed of their freedome, and the Norman tyrannie founded and continued over them. / By G.W. of Lincolnes Inne.	Walker, George, of Lincoln's Inn.	1650 (1650)	Wing W340; Thomason E619_1; ESTC R203987	46,665	64

Tyranny whose rationall and undaunted souls disdaininga Brutish slavery freely offered up their bodies on the High places of the field a rich oblation for Englands freedome which together expired and lay butchered by them The losse of this battell was imputed to the cowardice of the Welsh who in great numbers ranne away in the beginning of the fight not to the injustice of the cause of which the people had a sacred opinion but the truth is there was an accursed thing an Achan in Leicesters host old Henry attended with whole troops of perjuries matters and oppressions against whom incensed heaven was injustice engaged And now that the world might take notice Tyranny was again in the saddle cruelty in the height of revenge pranceth through the field for the dead body of noble Leicester was most barbarously abused and cut in pieces the head with the privy members fastened on either side the nose being sent as a Trophy to the Lord Roger Mortimers wife a present indeed as fitting for a Lady to receive as it was becoming a Prince who was Leicesters nephew to send but the people made a Saint of him whom his enemies by making reliques of rendred themselves little better than Devils and the dismembred body gave a fragrant sent whilest the dismemberers rotted and stank alive thus after death Leicester leads a triumph over Tyranny which may instruct us how far a free and generous soul is above its reach And here notwithstanding the calumnies and reproaches wherewith the Royall party backed with successe and parasiticall Chronologers then and since have loaded Leicester yet we may take a guesse of the worth of that noble Lord by the love of the people and malice of the Tyrant the former cannonizing him for a Saint do what the latter could for his heart and sure the common people had more than ordinary cause which could make them practice after an unusuall manner which was to judge contrary to event had his pride and his sonnes insolency been such as some would make them who endeavour with their shame to make a cloak for their adversaries knaverie Henry need never to have been so timerous as he was who not onely confessed he feared the father more than any storm but could never be quiet untill he ezpell'd both mother and sonnes the Land though she was his sister a Lady of eminent note both daughter and sister to a King and they upon delivering up their strengths were seemingly received into favour thus dreadfull and hatefull to a tyrant are free and generous spirits which must expect such usuage when they are within the verge of his power and such effects of an act of oblivion must our noble Patriots have felt from Charles had not providence in men been pleased to have put bounds to the paralell by erecting us a pillar with a ne plus ultra upon it Let each following line then teach here thankfulnesse to Heaven wherein we shall read from what a labyrinth and maze of misery divine mercy hath freed our unworthy selves in which our forefathers were miserably imprisoned and devoured and let us prize the clue which hath led us out among our choicest jewels that giving glory to the hand and honour to the instrument we may in some measure walk worthy of the mercies we have received Henry now again where he would be breaths nothing but bloud and revenge against all who had stood for liberty following and pursuing them with such unheard of fury that had not some potent favorites interposed he had burnt the whole City of London Thus the Metropolis of England had been laid in ashes which so generously and often hath ventured for Liberty had not God had a work to doe wherein London was to be gloriously instrumentall and so delivered it out of the paw of the Lyon A Parliament now is summoned to Winchester which considering the season was likely to do the people much good and in this all who took part with the Lords are disherited all the Statutes of Oxford are repealed the wealthiest Citizens of London cast into prison the City deprived of it 's Liberties and all the posts and chains taken away These things being put in execution for such Acts must be kept another Parliament meets at Westminster wherein the Acts of VVinchester are confirmed Thus topsie turvie is the world changed that Assembly the onely refuge and Assilum for the people to fly to so lately the assertor of their Freedoms is becom the Mint wherein the Tyrant stamps for current what he lists and makes the basest metall passe for Gold backing his lust with pretence of Law O now I warrant you Henrye's conscience is tender in keeping Acts of Parliament and it is no lesse than a piaculum to go about to infringe them Henry in this latter comming to Westminster to shew his goodnesse and bounty freely bestows on his Hang-bies sixty Citizens houses together with their furniture and all the lands goods and chattels belonging to their owners Yet at length he was pleased to pardon the City upon the payment of twenty thousand marks and giving Hostages of the best mens Sonnes to be kept in the Tower at their Parents charges Businesse thus dispatched at London away hies Henry to Northampton where the Popes Legat holding a Synod curses all those who stood for Liberty and Henry had been undutifull had he not helped his Holy-Father who all along had bin so kind to him he good man was agreed with before it was all the reason then in the World that the Pope should make his market thus the poor slaves were to purchase their fetters double so costly was slavery unto England justly then may such be termed niggards and base who will grumble now though with a round sum to purchase their Liberty And now it seems Henry made not his journey for nothing for the gratefull Pope by his Legat this Synod grants the tenths of the Church for a year unto him so bountiful in rewarding one another were these Foxes with what they lurched from the Geese Henry passing his time in such pranks as these at last Glocester finding his turning not to serve his tongue as he expected takes his time changes his footing and assembling an Army seizes on London this puts the King and Legat so to their trumps as brought both unto their last stake making the one pawn the shrines jewels and reliques the other spend the curses and excommunications of the Church most liberally but the Legat might have been sent packing with his Sonne at his back in Pontificalibus had not Henries Golden Gods wrought the miracle which having thousands of Angels at command quickly brought in great Armies of Forraigners by whose aid Glocester was forced to submit he and all his partakers fining for their offence to Henry who no doubt made them pay for putting him into such a fear as well as unto such a charge which could be no small sum were he like
