frame of Government whether their fellow Subjects or their fellow Parliament men or their King and Soveraigne himselfe Yea from the first bringing in of the two Bills against the Government of the Church and for taking the Militia out of the Kings hand all their Proceedings have been only Rebellious and Traiterous untill this day and they and their Complices have spoken and acted nothing but Rebellion and Treason if examined and tryed by the Lawes of the Land And their Rebellion is an attempt to force and compell the King in some cases to governe otherwise then according to his owne Royall Authority and direction and by force of Armes to deprive him of his Government in some other cases and to force and compell his Vote and Assent to severall Bills in Parliament against himselfe and against his Authority and Government And so at once to subject both his Gubernative and Legislative Authority to the two Houses of Parliament And the Treasons already acted for promoting this Rebellion are The corrupting the judgement of the People and the taking off the bonds of Conscience toward His Majesty and the drawing away the Peoples hearts from him and the setting of discord between him and them whereby they should leave him and rise up against him And these are the Treasons more especially of their Preachers and Pamphleters The levying Warre against the King in this Realme The deteining his Castles and Forts from him and his Ships and his Ordinance And these are the Treasons of those Lords and Commons principally The encountring in fight and killing them that assist him and the adhering to the King's Enemies and giving them ayd and comfort And these are the Treasons of their Souldiers and Contributers Thus the Treacherous dealers have dealt treacherously yea the treacherous dealers have dealt very treacherously Esay 24. 16. And the Treasons to be acted which I tremble at and whereof all will be guilty that have any hand in the preceding Treasons I say the Treasons to be acted for consummating this Rebellion are The depriving or deposing or murthering of the King the Lords Annointed In every Rebellion the Law intending as a consequent the compassing the death and deprivation of the King as foreseeing that the Rebel will never suffer that King to Live or Raigne which might punish or take Revenge of his Rebellion and Treason And therefore doubtlesse it is that Sir Thomas Fairfax hath his Commission without exception to fight with kill and slay all that shall oppose him But God forbid that I should strech forth mine hand against the Lords Anoynted For who can stretch forth his hand against him and be guiltlesse 1. Sam. 26. 9 11.
