into a slavery and held fast by the gills by the old jugling and deluding perswasions of Religion Liberty and Property Shall the infusions of these Givens any longer continue you transformed from Men into Beasts to lye down like Asses under your Burthens and to conceit that a slavish rest is good Can these Sorcerers make you any longer beleeve that they are the great Power of God when they are the manifest and skild operators unto the Devill Surely the Tolleration of all Religions and Heresies the keeping of an Army modeld unto their own purposes still on foote the Circumvention of your Liberties the visible and cunning Invasion of your Properties their whole Processe with His Majesty and all the present practises in order unto the Subversion of Monarthy in this Kingdome and setting up for themselves cannot but state it for a most unquestionable and measured Truth with you O people of England that this present Parliament will have no King but reign and rule themselves how and as they list and this will be beyond dispute if you suddainly survay their whole Conduit of this Designe By their disposing the three Kingdoms unto an Aptitude to receive their Impressions and the universall Taint of Rebellion by their practises with the Scots an Irritable people whom by their meer Encouragements they draw into a Posture of Hostility against His Majesty through their suggestions that He would introduce Popery and an Arbitrary and Tyrannicall forme of Government over His People By their corruption of discontented poore yet powerful and Leading Persons of Scotland to improve their Designe By their Treachery unto and desection of His Majesty and His Army raised and able to suppresse that Sedition upon Tearmes of greatest Disadvatnage unto His Majesty and of highest Dishonour unto this Nation By Necessitating His Majesty to call a Parliament as the only remedy for the present Distempers the Members whereof were for the prevailing part an industriously packt Crue of Dis-affected Persons unto His Majesty unto the Government established and who did only drive at their own Ends By their violent Ejection of Persons well-affected unto the King and Kingdome out of both Houses and all places of Trust and Importance By their sending abroad their owne evill Ministring-spirits and hired Emissaries those Sampsons Foxes tyed together by the tayles and fire-brands betwixt them their factious illiterate prostitute and phanatique Clergy to set the standing-Corne of the people into the fire of Rebellion By their publishing and countenancing Scandalous

and exasperating the Irish both by the selling and re-selling of their Lands and much more than is in that Island and taking from them all hope of Pardon and denying unto them Quarter By their sending unto that service almost onely such Commanders and men as were of His Majesties Army in the North doubting of their affections here and then abandoning them unto all want and misery there This Parliament besides that they occasioned the Rebellion and the first Effusion of blood in Ireland having spilt more English blood by the wilfull neglect of them there than the Irish did by their swords By their defrauding the poore Protestants of Ireland of the Benevolence of the Dutch and converting it unto their own uses By their breaking the late Peace in Ireland concluded by His Majesties Auhority through their trans-actions with the Spanish Ambassador who dealt so effectually with the Popes Nuncio and Owen Roe ô Neale both Factors for Spayne that they not only hindred that Peace but in order unto this Parliamentary Design seized upon the best strengths of the English in Counaught and almost all the English Holds and Quarters in Lemster By their sithence in-effective prosecution of the War there and so only as to engage and entertaine both Parties there as that they might only not be able to looks upon themselves here through which many thousands have perished In the entrance unto their Designe here By bloodily tearing from the Kings sides His most faithfull and consult Counsellors and Servants and either illegally taking away their lives or constraining them unto flight By their taking away first the Votes of then the Bishops themselves and by silencing and imprisoning the Orthodox Clergy who might conscionably informe the people of their Duties and of the Necessity of Christian Obedience unto the Supream Magistrate His Majesty By extorting from His Majesty Acts prejudiciall unto His Crown and Dignity and such only as might serve to advance their own Ends that for continuation of this present Parliament being forced to save the Queens life By their Abbetting men of most impudent Ambition and Avarice those Members not to be named without an Atonement first made trained up in and furnished with all Anti-monarchicall and dishonest Principalls and that against the very face of the King By their stirring up of Tumults Insurrections and Mutinyes of the
