the mutuall health and welfare of each other The KING it he could ruine the Parliament should but destroy his own body himself in another his own flesh and the Parliament in destroying the KING destroy themselves in their head The Parliament have conquered the King but have gotten onely this by it to be a confused head-lesse heap and put off their naturall head to put on another to be headed by an Army a faction and if the King should doe as much and conquer the Parliament he would be unhappy in it and he would be the head not of a body but a confused rabble not a King indeed but a friend his party would Levell with him and expect to be Kings with him he would be in as great a confusion without a Parliament as the Parliament without the King As they are broken divided set in enmity and malignancy one against another so are the parts disordered The head the King laid in the bottom the Parliament upon him the Army hath been and when occasion serves can be uppermost The Kingdome stands upon his head The Parliament came forth of the King and Army forth of Parliament now the King can't come forth but it must bee from the Parliament as the Parliament comes forth of the Army Divided and subdivided broken into King and Parliament Parliament and Army Army and City City and Parliament England and Scotland Scotland their divisions Ireland divided from both and subdivided amongst themselves But the destroyer hath most shewed his cunning in our divisions so perfectly and artificially are we intangled and perplext in distractions as there is no escaping The KINGS party divided and some fallen in with the Scotch and Presbyterian which they perfectly hate and yet are joyned to them Others rather chuse to sit stil or have better love to the Independent interest ther 's another conjunction in dislike dis-junction The Parliament is divided some look back to the KING others had rather stand against him both jealous of him yet forced to looke towards him The Presbyterian joyning part to the Cavaliers and part to the Independent and both hating those they joyne too The City falling to peeces too Thus doth God shake the Nations jumbles their principles together scatters them as dried bones that none knows whether to go to joyne The King is shut up in his pit in his prison under the Army and Parliament he must make his way through their blood to come to the Crown and when he hath done that he must again ruine those by whom he riseth the Scots and when he hath done that he is yet but miserable and is worse then where he is The Parliament must goe through the Kings party to their end by the Army and when they have done that they must ruine the Army and Independent intolerable to them and then they arrive but at confusion The Army must destroy the Kings party first and then the Parliament and at last it gains nothing but to be a wretched nothing The City must ruine the Kings party or else wo be to them and the Independent too or else they can have no settlement and then the Parliament and they may have leasure to fight alone Hambletons Scots have the English Nation wholly to destroy before they can come to his end both Army Parliament and KING and their own Nation at home And what then Then there will be roome to fight with the Irish so that wee are involved in destruction shut up under severall locks and bolts and to get out of one is but to be out of a lesse into a greater or larger hell Therefore its impossible to recover your selves by force you may wrastle and tug with your fates and weary your selves with toyling but by all you will but sink your selves deeper and by your false hipocritical and unnaturall conjunctions of heterogeneous bodies make new matter of difference and increase your own misery Neither can a Treaty compose you in the condition in which you are you are in death and under the curse and all your actions are and shall be accursed The Nation is not only broken but as dried bones have lost their marrow of Vnion their spirit of Love it hath neither flesh of softnesse and gentlenesse nor sinews of agreement Neither doth there appeare that wisdome and skill to binde up these breaches King lost disabled Nobles scattered weake inconsiderable things Commons distracted hurried after their vaine imaginations Of all the sonnes that the kingdome hath brought forth there is none to guide her to take her by the hand to lead her out of this pit The end of Treating at best is but to settle the Kingdome in its former worldly estate T is looking back to Aegypt we are in the wildernesse and must on to Canaan It were woefull if wee should lose the fruit of all our blood and misery that we have suffered and only be where we were which will quickly fall back into the condition we are now in No the Divine purpose is of some higher favour to us and short of it we must not sit down Besides This Treaty is not voluntary but forced not open and plaine but false each seeking to catch advantages and in darknesse and jealousie fearfull and unblieving which will blast them sin and iniquity unpardoned the wrath of God still flaming against the Nation unquenchable by all the art of man that will render all humane attempts vaine and fruitlesse Heer lies England as Sodom burning in the displeasure of God in Civil bloody warres in madnesse and folly The Majesty and honour of the Mation confounded and lost in the KING the liberty and justice of it in the Parliament the power and might of it in the Armies the religion and truth of it in the Church the wealth and trade in the City the fruits of the earth by warre and unseasonable weather and ALL in the losse of Gods favour Heer is the Kings curses of his people and imprecations of judgements upon themselves and families brought forth to the life That mad party that cry Dam me and Ram me that drink healths to the confusion of the Parliament t is done you live to see it The other side that have Covenanted the exterpation of Episcopacy root and branch t is finished fully The Parliament and the KING their root or the Laws of the Land out of which they grew the Nation her self the Church all rooted out And all sects and schismes Presbytery it self for one pul'd up by the rootes Your fears have brought forth the thing you feard is upon you The removing of the Candlestick the losse of the Gospell The whole Kingdome is left in Hideous darknesse And the glory of it is gon from you That persecution feared by Independents is come Satan the destroyer is upon you wasting killing imprisoning all true glory light righteousnesse peace And the answer of your many prayers for destruction upon the enemies of Christ your selves and
plea That he is accountable for his actions to none but God and therefore hath frequently in his Declarations appealed from man to GOD. And Divine justice hath reserved your cause to Himself and kept your Parliament a long while from accusing you of any thing only charging your instruments And when they attempted to bring forth any thing against you as they did in their Declaration upon their Votes to make no more addresses to you They were manifestly weak and mistaken and not being to prove any thing they were forced presently to retract what they had done and shew they produced nothing but their own shame You stand therefore before the Throne of God and are found guilty of transgressing against that foundamental Law from which thou holdest thy Crown The majestie of God the Father and hast broke Covenant first with God secondly with thy People First Thou haft slain and killed thy Father The Lord of glory this is thy Parricide That the great King lies to this day buried in thee as in his Sepulcher That in all thy Reigne thou hast not suffered the Majesty of God to break forth but hast smothered and denied his light to shine through thee amongst men Thou hast owned the title and name of the Lords Anointed CHARLES by the Grace of God but hast not owned the substance of that Anointing and that Grace Hadst thou known and owned that fountain of Divine light and wisdome which lives in thy sacred Head and Breast Thou wouldest have understood the meaning of that Principle The King cannot Erre and so would'st alwayes walke by a certain and never-failing rule But thou forsaking yea professing against that Spirit hast followed the false and crooked rule of thy owne carnall reason and customes and examples of other Princes and the dark counsell of poor petty Politicians Hadst thou known that Immortal fountain of Majesty that is in thee thou wouldest have known the meaning of that position The King cannot dye and would never through fear and jealousy fled from thy People and Parliament because of Tumults Was not that a turning away that Royall face of God that is able to have allayed and still'd the raging of those waves Had you known that Divine power that is in you you would have met such tumults as Christ met those that came to apprehend him and said as he did I am he whom seeke yee And then you had had the same effect They would have fallen before you Or if you had suffered you had layd down your Crown in dishonour it would have been raised in honour as his But to fly to a place of strength Digbies counsell who taught Majesty to Digge to earth it selfe into by and indirect paths of darknesse Ther 's no place of strength equall to your owne Royall heart It was to teach the Sun to hide it selfe in the earth for fear of clouds or to depart from his sphere to avoyd mists Or hadst thou lived in the Anointing that is in thee thou hadst not needed to have feared or denied the high demands of thy subjects seeking thy prerogatives from thee or the diminishing thy greatnes by it but mightest have freely powred forth to much honour as would have burst them if they had been corrupt and wicked in their designe or it would have assured thee that there is such a Sun of Majesty in thee as could not be lesse by shining upon them and that Majesty is not in titles names customes the power of a Militia but naturally inherent in thee fixt and sure as God and so inseperable from thee It was meanesse and poornesse of spirit that did not give more fully then they could ask and so have over-come them or if thou hadst made them Kings thou hadst been as truely thy coppy is KING of KINGS so that indeed thy Error hath been Thou hast not been Majesticall enough or lived in the height and absolutnesse of God Secondly When thou hadest broken the bond of union twixt the Eternall and thy Kingdome by which thy Kingdome was become a Kingdome of darknesse a Worldly one and so ruled by the god of this World the Devill Thou hast in opposition to the judge of all men contended to the uttermost to uphold and maintain that vaine Idoll and false power when the holy one hath sent out Watchers to destroy it and hast Pertenaciously refused to give it up to bee slain by Gods justice The more God shewed himselfe against it to breake it the more didst thou persist in striving for it And not committing it to him whose it first was and from whom thou didst receive it hast gon into base carnall and filthy waies to preserve it This is the reason that a long time thou hast run a course of weak dark and black waies being lead about by Satan at his pleasure It was this that sent thee in secret waies to beg aide and assistance of Forraign Princes and not of Princes only but by thy agents hast unworthily sought to private persons for reilefe the almes houses called religious houses Thou hast been dealing in a close and under-ground way with the Bloudy Irish and that party Hast wandered from thy steadinesse to all interests and parties in Scotland and England and so been forced to most unstable and unequall shifts denying thy actions false saying and swaring to various formes and shapes to save thy Worldly Greatnesse from Divine justice Thou in pursuance of it hast pawned thy word engaged thy estate thy Crown jewells undone thy friends and al these things eaten up with contending against a curse doomd by God not knowing yet that he that saveth his Crown shall lose it and hee that loseth it now shall save it As thou hast sinned against the holy God so against thy People and hast fail'd in thy Government towards them not answering your heavenly pattern and foundamentall Law First Thou hast not lived with thy wife thy body the People in the love of a Head Thou shouldst have loved her as Christ loved his Church and gave himselfe for it to sanctify it c. T is true thy spouse was unclean proud high in demands striving with thee the true way to have washt her was to have given thy self freely for her Thy Majestie envied while detain'd from her If it had been shed-abroad amonst them would have heald their distempers and pierced and overcome their hearts Thou hast slighted and neglected thy body not honoured her and hast with-held thy selfe and thy favour from thy People in Generall and hast narrowed thy selfe into a few friends and hast heaped all thy favours upon them Thou hast broken the Marriage knot and hast accepted others into thy wives bed to be sharers in thy Government Thou hast refused thy Parliament and hast admitted into thy bosome and heart of Government thy Wife a Woman a Stranger thy minions favourites and friends That 's thy owne and her Adultery Heerin thou hast prostituted thy Royalty to every flatterer and
in waies of justice courage industry love mercy they were favoured with admirable mirable successe relieving the Kingdome from war And while they were contented with their state the condition of servants to the Parliament they shined in honour and reputation though malignd and envied while their masters daily impaired I hey shine in the eyes of the Nation and were the peoples hopes yea an Idol upon whom many had placed their confidence of a worldly deliverance When the Parliament or a party of them in ingratitude and malice against the favours God bestowed on them would have them disbanded as standing in the way of some malicious designe They united imboldned and strengthened by their just and honest intentions refuse and so grew to be a body of their owne independant and to stand upon their owne bottom For a while they appeare in this forme very faire and cleare Proposing honest and generall good fixing upon just and good things and obtaine by the assistance of their good Angell successe against their adversaries But alas How short lived is thy goodnesse A very morning dew that presently passes Thou hast only the power to propose and offer good but none to performe or a scourge to others a sickle to cut down the withered King Parliament but no power to build up when thou didst begin a new frame thy folly self-love in-in-justice worldlines quickly appeares and thou art left and forsaken in the same pit of darknes with others Thy Iniquities and Judgements are First Thou wast ignorant of the presence of the Lord of Hosts with thee and of that extraordinary power that guided thee thou didst talk of it but falsly and didst not simply and absolutly follow the LORD and walk in his power but didst mingled God and Baall do things haltingly and imperfectly in base fear respect and stooping to men and declining the noble high actings of the Spirit of God didst consult with flesh and bloud with sense and reason worldly customes and wayes which disabled thee to bring forth any excellent or honourable thing Thou durst not trust in GOD alone but deceitfully turnd away from him to thy own sense and reason Thou weart weak and unable to manage the affaires of state in this storme in which it is but being called to it hast in thy insufficiency brought it to another and worse wrack Thou undertookest a work beyond thy power and losest thy self and the Kingdome by it When the Nation lay at thy door begging for reliefe and thou hadst an opportunity to restore it a prize in thy hand and knewest it not But didest stifle and by unbeliefe and carnall policie smother the wisdome and power of the Lord in thee and not suffer him to come forth for the Nations salvation but bring forth thy own foolish waies to the Nations farther ruine When thou begun thy work through fear of the Kings party whom thou hadst conquered and brought to thy feet thou didst weakly and without judgement take up the King in his filthy curse and as a peece of a ruind wall to strengthen your selves and when you had fouly promised you as fouly brake with him and so become guilty of all his iniquity in taking him un-washt and of his unjust sufferings in leaving of him When you had broken the Parliament trampled upon it defiled its authority besmeared it with your disobedience dishonoured it inslaved it by force you then in hope to secure your selves by it in confidence in it set up this broken Idol againe in all its masse of folly and weaknesse injustice and oppression without giving any satisfaction to God or man You in opposition to the Spirit of the Lord that is pulling down worldly power set them up patch and bodge them together in a confused and broken way and set your selves to heal the breaches that God makes and so stand in the way of Divine displeasure to be consumed by it And now imploy your Army which God set to pull down unjust and corrupt powers in which you did prevaile to uphold and maintaine those powers no whit better in which you cannot prevaile your Army is now the girdle of strength that holds together the ungodly and oppressing power of Parliament or the fence and wall to keep out the vengeance of God from coming farther in upon men and it is so far from keeping it out that it keeps vengeance in or upholds them in a state of wrath You when you were lifted up begun to please your selves to admire and blesse the Army to magnify your selves as the Kingdomes Lords and conqerors to make your Army intyre to conceive a necessity of continuing an Army to get preferments in it to bethinke your selves of living richly in it of recovering your Pay and arreares And upon these grounds to continue the Army upon the Kingdome with taxes and free-quarter the greatest oppression that England or any other Nation ever bore so that now you are the last and heaviest of the Nations burthens that promised to save and deliver and turne the greatest Tyrants lose all the good you have done set up a forcible Government turne warre into a trade England into a Campe perpetuate desteruction and provoak new commotions You have at last deceived all parties promised much but done nothing broken your word frustrated all expectations of good from you become a broken reed which while men leand upon runne into their hands and so become of a remedy a great disease You judgement is the same with your Mother the Parliament and with all Power upholding it selfe and maintaining it selfe in enmity to God Accursed of God your standing is in the darknesse of Satan and the World The King in the pit the Parliament the pit it self of confusion and you shut the mouth of it the Porters of this Nationall hell to keep them in torment that are there to conjure downe those keep them in torment that are there to conjure downe those spirits that would come forth by these risings and to set bounds to this Sea of confusion that it do not over-flow The rock against which these proud waves dash themselves in peeces the walls to contain and instruments to inflict evill on the People against which they continually fome and fret or the fetters and shakels of the Nation in prison under you the chaine in which the mad Kingdome is bound and tied for their folly and rage you are to inflict more evill on them and because they will not bear what is laid on them patiently you are to lay on more and as you lay plagues on them so you receive some blowes from them And so are sunke from that great favour to be the Kingdomes hope a saviour to be a jaylor vexing and being vexed able to keepe men in misery but in no way at all to deliver them And to this are you tied and bound A way of peace and quietnesse hath been set before you that way of peace you have not known but being
