A26130	A seasonable speech made by Alderman Atkins in the Rump-Parliament	Atkins, Thomas, Sir.	1660 (1660)	Wing A4124E; ESTC R28311	3,537	6

a_o seasonable_a speech_n make_v by_o alderman_n atkins_n in_o the_o rump-parliament_n mr._n speaker_n after_o so_o many_o dispensation_n and_o outgoing_n of_o providence_n we_o be_v now_o the_o three_o time_n return_v to_o sit_v in_o this_o honourable_a house_n again_o but_o how_o long_o we_o shall_v do_v so_o i_o believe_v the_o wise_a of_o we_o all_o can_v tell_v for_o the_o soldier_n have_v of_o late_o set_v up_o government_n as_o boy_n do_v ninepin_n to_o throw_v they_o down_o again_o but_o how_o oft_o soever_o they_o turn_v we_o out_o hereafter_o i_o shall_v never_o doubt_v to_o get_v in_o again_o for_o i_o perceive_v those_o change_n and_o revolution_n as_o they_o call_v they_o be_v just_a like_o cast_v of_o knave_n at_o card_n where_o some_o play_n and_o some_o sit_v out_o until_o the_o set_v be_v up_o or_o the_o gamester_n fall_v out_o and_o throw_v up_o their_o card_n and_o then_o they_o stand_v fair_a to_o get_v in_o again_o but_o notwithstanding_o so_o many_o interruption_n and_o disturbance_n many_o mighty_a and_o great_a work_n have_v be_v carry_v on_o by_o we_o worm_n and_o no_o men._n you_o sir_n have_v a_o new_a wainscot_n chair_n and_o our_o seat_n that_o be_v but_o cover_v with_o mat_n when_o we_o come_v first_o to_o sit_v here_o be_v now_o line_v with_o good_a broadcloth_n of_o 16_o s._n a_o yard_n and_o the_o whole_a house_n be_v hang_v in_o a_o better_a manner_n than_o any_o man_n expect_v but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o that_o we_o have_v do_v for_o we_o have_v reform_v religion_n and_o bring_v the_o church_n as_o nigh_o to_o what_o it_o be_v in_o the_o primitive_a time_n among_o jew_n and_o pagan_n as_o may_v be_v for_o the_o christian_n have_v sell_v all_o they_o have_v long_o since_o and_o lay_v it_o at_o our_o foot_n and_o we_o begin_v once_o more_o to_o have_v all_o thing_n in_o common_a beside_o sir_n we_o have_v do_v strange_a justice_n on_o the_o late_a tyrant_n and_o transform_v the_o kingdom_n into_o a_o commonwealth_n as_o nabuchadnezzar_n be_v into_o a_o beast_n but_o there_o be_v one_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v omit_v no_o less_o necessary_a than_o any_o thing_n that_o we_o have_v do_v and_o which_o indeed_o the_o people_n have_v much_o more_o reason_n to_o expect_v from_o we_o for_o reformation_n as_o well_o as_o charity_n shall_v begin_v at_o home_n to_o hold_v forth_o my_o meaning_n in_o brief_a to_o you_o sir_n it_o be_v the_o cleanse_n of_o our_o own_o house_n of_o office_n and_o if_o that_o name_n be_v not_o mannerly_a enough_o for_o this_o place_n it_o be_v in_o your_o power_n to_o help_v it_o for_o there_o be_v a_o spare_a name_n that_o have_v be_v late_o confer_v on_o this_o honourable_a house_n by_o the_o people_n which_o be_v once_o call_v the_o house_n of_o parliament_n as_o it_o be_v now_o the_o rump_n this_o name_n in_o my_o opinion_n we_o can_v better_o dispose_v of_o then_o in_o confer_v it_o on_o the_o house_n i_o speak_v of_o that_o not_o only_o that_o but_o all_o other_o house_n of_o the_o same_o quality_n of_o which_o we_o be_v the_o representative_a may_v in_o the_o right_a thereof_o hereafter_o be_v call_v a_o rump_n as_o be_v a_o name_n more_o proper_a and_o significant_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o relation_n it_o have_v to_o that_o part_n and_o true_o sir_n i_o believe_v the_o wisdom_n and_o justice_n of_o this_o house_n can_v do_v no_o less_o if_o you_o please_v but_o to_o consider_v the_o near_a and_o intimate_a correspondence_n that_o house_n have_v ever_o hold_v with_o this_o as_o have_v ever_o be_v entrust_v with_o the_o most_o urgent_a and_o weighty_a matter_n that_o we_o ever_o carry_v on_o and_o so_o necessary_a that_o i_o may_v bold_o say_v without_o that_o recourse_n which_o we_o have_v have_v to_o it_o in_o our_o great_a extremity_n this_o house_n may_v have_v suffer_v for_o it_o many_o a_o time_n and_o oft_o it_o be_v now_o sir_n as_o full_a as_o this_o honourable_a house_n be_v once_o of_o member_n and_o as_o unuseful_a until_o we_o take_v some_o course_n to_o empty_v it_o as_o we_o do_v this_o which_o i_o humble_o conceive_v we_o can_v by_o no_o mean_n avoid_v for_o under_o favour_n i_o do_v not_o think_v we_o can_v use_v this_o house_n as_o we_o do_v the_o house_n of_o lord_n i_o mean_v vote_n it_o down_o when_o it_o will_v serve_v our_o turn_n no_o long_o no_o this_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o a_o high_a nature_n and_o more_o weighty_a concernment_n and_o as_o the_o difference_n be_v very_o great_a in_o reason_n of_o state_n so_o be_v it_o also_o in_o point_n of_o conscience_n for_o though_o it_o be_v true_a we_o engage_v and_o swear_v to_o maintain_v the_o house_n of_o lord_n yet_o we_o do_v it_o not_o after_o a_o right_a manner_n for_o we_o read_v it_o be_v a_o custom_n among_o the_o jew_n when_o they_o make_v any_o solemn_a vow_n to_o put_v their_o hand_n under_o one_o another_o ham_n and_o if_o we_o have_v do_v so_o when_o we_o swear_v that_o and_o kiss_v the_o book_n i_o grant_v we_o have_v be_v bind_v in_o conscience_n to_o have_v uphold_v it_o long_o than_o we_o do_v i_o mean_v long_o than_o we_o have_v need_n of_o it_o but_o we_o quite_o contrary_a hold_v up_o our_o hand_n and_o so_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o keep_v it_o otherwise_o than_o we_o take_v it_o that_o be_v hand_n over_o head_n for_o unless_o we_o differ_v from_o the_o jew_n in_o other_o matter_n more_o than_o we_o do_v i_o know_v no_o reason_n why_o we_o shall_v in_o this_o but_o now_o i_o speak_v of_o the_o jew_n give_v i_o leave_v by_o observe_v one_o passage_n in_o their_o history_n to_o hold_v forth_o unto_o you_o the_o danger_n of_o suppress_v the_o aforesaid_a house_n saul_n for_o want_v of_o such_o a_o convenience_n go_v into_o a_o cave_n where_o david_n have_v hide_v himself_o have_v like_a to_o have_v lose_v his_o life_n for_o if_o david_n have_v be_v one_o of_o we_o i_o know_v what_o have_v become_v of_o saul_n he_o will_v rather_o have_v cut_v off_o his_o head_n than_o a_o piece_n of_o his_o coat_n as_o i_o wonder_v he_o do_v not_o since_o be_v a_o prophet_n he_o may_v have_v make_v scripture_n of_o purpose_n to_o have_v prove_v he_o a_o tyrant_n and_o a_o traitor_n as_o we_o do_v law_n to_o condemn_v the_o late_a king_n after_o he_o be_v put_v to_o death_n but_o though_o david_n be_v wise_a than_o his_o teacher_n he_o be_v not_o so_o wise_a as_o we_o be_v it_o be_v true_a for_o his_o own_o advantage_n he_o know_v how_o to_o make_v the_o silly_a philistines_n believe_v he_o be_v mad_a but_o i_o be_o mistake_v if_o we_o have_v not_o outdo_v he_o that_o way_n too_o and_o make_v the_o wise_a think_v we_o so_o but_o to_o return_v to_o the_o purpose_n suppose_v sir_n the_o army_n shall_v have_v occasion_n to_o give_v this_o honourable_a house_n a_o purge_n again_o you_o will_v be_v loath_a it_o shall_v work_v here_o and_o true_o i_o do_v not_o know_v what_o other_o way_n you_o have_v to_o avoid_v it_o unless_o we_o shall_v make_v use_n of_o that_o place_n where_o the_o assembly_n of_o divine_n late_o sit_v which_o for_o my_o part_n i_o like_v very_o well_o if_o it_o be_v near_o and_o certain_o they_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o take_v it_o ill_o for_o it_o be_v according_a to_o the_o example_n of_o the_o best_a reform_a church_n and_o i_o know_v no_o reason_n why_o we_o may_v not_o as_o well_o sit_v there_o and_o make_v sour_a face_n at_o our_o own_o charge_n as_o they_o do_v at_o the_o charge_n of_o the_o commonwealth_n for_o i_o own_o part_n do_v not_o the_o common_a good_a provoke_v i_o to_o it_o i_o have_v as_o little_a reason_n to_o speak_v as_o another_o and_o perhaps_o less_o for_o my_o breeches_n be_v make_v close_o at_o the_o knee_n and_o so_o better_o fit_v against_o a_o mischance_n beside_o i_o know_v the_o worst_a of_o it_o for_o i_o believe_v you_o have_v often_o hear_v what_o i_o have_v suffer_v in_o the_o service_n of_o my_o country_n but_o let_v that_o pass_v though_o it_o be_v the_o worse_a for_o my_o reputation_n and_o my_o breeches_n it_o be_v the_o better_a for_o my_o body_n and_o my_o soul_n too_o for_o i_o have_v edify_v much_o by_o it_o it_o be_v true_a the_o boy_n hold_v their_o nose_n and_o cry_v fogh_o when_o they_o see_v i_o in_o the_o street_n but_o what_o of_o that_o a_o wise_a man_n know_v how_o to_o make_v a_o advantage_n of_o the_o great_a disaster_n and_o so_o have_v i_o do_v for_o there_o be_v a_o time_n mr._n speaker_n when_o this_o honourable_a house_n have_v like_a to_o have_v be_v a_o foul-house_n and_o when_o be_v that_o true_o it_o be_v when_o the_o prentice_n come_v hither_o to_o show_v we_o one_o trick_n more_o than_o ever_o we_o teach_v they_o then_o do_v i_o take_v this_o worshipful_a chain_n off_o my_o neck_n and_o very_o politic_o put_v it_o in_o my_o codpiece_n for_o i_o know_v well_o enough_o that_o no_o body_n in_o this_o town_n where_o i_o be_o so_o well_o know_v will_v venture_v to_o look_v for_o it_o there_o and_o i_o be_v not_o mistake_v for_o here_o you_o see_v i_o have_v it_o still_o the_o same_o thing_n i_o do_v at_o another_o time_n and_o that_o be_v when_o as_o you_o may_v well_o remember_v a_o piece_n of_o plaster_n fall_v from_o the_o roof_n some_o of_o the_o member_n cry_v treason_n and_o many_o make_v haste_n to_o get_v out_o of_o the_o house_n as_o fast_o as_o they_o can_v so_o do_v not_o i_o no_o sir_n i_o resolve_v to_o stay_v by_o it_o and_o therefore_o have_v put_v my_o chain_n in_o my_o codpiece_n i_o creep_v under_o the_o bench_n in_o this_o very_a place_n where_o i_o now_o sit_v and_o there_o i_o lie_v close_o until_o i_o hear_v some_o that_o be_v near_o i_o say_v they_o smell_v gunpowder_n but_o then_o i_o know_v it_o be_v a_o mistake_n and_o so_o it_o prove_v indeed_o but_o if_o it_o have_v be_v otherwise_o no_o danger_n shall_v have_v make_v i_o forsake_v my_o duty_n no_o sir_n i_o have_v be_v so_o faithful_a to_o this_o house_n and_o so_o constant_a to_o my_o principle_n that_o i_o have_v not_o change_v so_o much_o as_o my_o seat_n since_o the_o happy_a beginning_n of_o this_o parliament_n in_o this_o very_a place_n do_v i_o then_o sit_v on_o both_o side_n of_o i_o sit_v two_o member_n that_o afterward_o prove_a malignant_n for_o they_o take_v snuff_n at_o something_o that_o fall_v from_o i_o in_o my_o zeal_n to_o the_o cause_n and_o run_v to_o oxford_n to_o the_o king_n their_o estate_n be_v long_o since_o sell_v for_o which_o the_o commonwealth_n may_v thank_v i_o for_o very_o sir_n i_o have_v not_o be_v altogether_o a_o unprofitable_a member_n according_a to_o my_o talon_n and_o the_o dispensation_n of_o what_o be_v in_o i_o for_o my_o bowel_n have_v be_v often_o pour_v out_o for_o the_o prosperity_n of_o this_o house_n and_o i_o hope_v my_o conversation_n have_v hold_v forth_o so_o much_o of_o the_o inward_a man_n as_o may_v be_v sufficient_a to_o satisfy_v the_o well_o affect_v by_o who_o i_o be_o entrust_v and_o as_o for_o my_o backbiter_n i_o forgive_v they_o free_o alas_o they_o hurt_v themselves_o and_o not_o i_o for_o if_o they_o get_v any_o thing_n by_o deal_v with_o i_o that_o way_n they_o must_v have_v good_a luck_n sir_n i_o have_v use_v the_o
