By William Prynne Esquire, a Member of the House of Commons, and prisoner under the Armies tyranny; who, it seemes, have levyed war against the Houses of Parliament, their quandam-masters whose Members they now forcibly take and detaine captives, during their lawfull pleasures.	Prynne, William, 1600-1669.	1649 (1649)	Wing P3909A; ESTC R203360	14,504	18

c. according to the Covenant How then you can un-King or depose him as to them or take away his life upon pretext of Justice without their concurrent assents is worthy your saddest thoughts If you do it without asking or receiving their consents you engage both Kingdoms to make a just Warre against you to proclaime and to Crown the Prince of Wales their King though you should lay him aside as being next Heire apparent And no Ordinance you can now make will be any legall barre against him to the Crowne of Engl. where he will finde sen thousand persons for one who 〈◊〉 joyn with Scotland and Ireland to set him upon his Fathers Throne as King of England and avenge his blood upon all who shall be ayding or assisting to its spilling or his death owning And what then will become of you and your army when thus deserted by most opposed by all 3. Kingdoms and all the Kings Qu●…ens and Princes Allies united forces Where will you where will your St. Cromwell St. Ireton St. Pride St. Peters that fast and loose carnall prophet and Arch Jesuited Incendiary in these present tumults with other Grand Saints of the Army who now force you the Generall Army and whole Kingdom upon such dangerous Councels as these by the Jesuits principles and practises then appear to save either themselves or you or your posterities from exemplary justice without mercy or hopes of pardon Consider this then seriously if not as Christians yet as 〈◊〉 and selfe-ended men and then repent and be wise in time Tenthly Remember that you have neither Law nor direct president 〈◊〉 what you are going about * Edward the 2d and Richard the 2d were forced by Mortimer and Henry the 4th to resigne their Crownes in a formall manner the one to his Son the other to his conquering Suceessor neither of them to the Parliament then deposed by a subsequent sente●…ce in Parliament as unfit to Reigne without any formall Iegall tryall or answer and that not in an empty Parliament under a force as now when most Members were forced away and secluded but in a full Parliament wherein the Articles drawen up against them were never so much as rtad and their depositions made upon their owne voluntary concessions only to confirme their precedent Resignation Besides neither of these Kings though very bad and Paptists were ever condemned to loose their heads or lives but were to be well and Honourable treated And those Proceedings were onely by Popish Parliaments in time of ignorance who had no such Oathes Vowes Covenants protestations and other forementioned considerations to tye their hands as you and we all have now Yea this ve●…y 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 solemnly and parcularly protested * that they did never suffer these Presidents to enter into their thoughts and they should never he their practise what ever they suffered from the King or his and that for the honour of our Religion and the most 〈◊〉 in it B●…t that which is very observable Roger Mortimer the principle actor in deposing King Edward the 2d and Crowning his Sonne Edward the 3d King in his stead as you must now Crowne the Prince Wales in his Fathers sleed if you depose the King else you pursue not this president as you should do in the Parliament of 1 Ed. 3. in which I finde no record concerning this deposall was in a full Parliament within four yeares after with some other of his Confederates * impeached condemned and executed as a Traytor and Enemy to the King and Kingdome by the Judgement of the Lords and that by King Edward the third his owne assent without any legall hearing or Tryall just as he h●…d there deposed this King without it for murthering King Edward in Berkley Castle after his deposall and Sir Thomas de Berkley in whose Castle he was slaine being indicted of Treason likewise for the same ●…urther before the Lords in Parliament pleaded not guilty thereunto and was tried at the Lords Bar in a legall manner by a Jury of twelve Knights there sworn and impanneled and by them acquitted upon full evidence and tryall when as Sir Simon de Bereford was impeached condemned and executed by a judgement given against him by the Lords alone without any triall for murthering this deposed King and Thomas de Gurney and William Ocle adjudged Traytort by them for the same offence without any evidence appearing to record These presidents then will be of very hard digestion and not paralleld to our times or the Kings case Who having upon the
