By one who cordially affects his Soveriagne, and really respects the Parliament: which illustrious and renowned senate, hath (for the safetie of the King, and presevation of the kingdome) resolved upon the question, that in this malignant partie, they may not, must not, will not, cannot confide. 1642 (1642) Wing L2593; Thomason E240_29; ESTC R2828 6,947 8
