A64570	A speech of VVilliam Thomas, esqvire in Parliament in May 1641 being a short view and examination of the actions of bishops in Parliament from Anno Dom. 1116 to this present of 1641 in the severall reignes of 23 kings and queens of this kingdome of England, &c. : in all and each of their times it is made to appeare they have been most obnoxious to prince and people and therefore that it is not fit or convenient that they should continue members of that honourable House in which they have beene so disloyally and traiterously affected to regality and no lesse mischievous and pernicious to church and commonwealth.	Thomas, William, Sir, d. 1653?	1641 (1641)	Wing T985; ESTC R8551	19,310	28

and_o wicked_a archbishop_n and_o bishop_n curse_v all_o that_o shall_v rebel_v against_o it_o which_o impudent_a and_o traitorous_a disloyalty_n say_v matth._n paris_n and_o matth._n westm._n the_o
