A77431	A brief discourse of the present miseries of the kingdome: declaring by what practises the people of England have been deluded, and seduced into slavery, and how they have been continued therein, and by what meanes they may shake off that bondage, they are now enthraled under. / Written by a lover of his country, for the good of all such who are not contented to be slaves, but desire to live free-men.

prince_n in_o opposition_n to_o the_o french_a king_n will_v be_v able_a at_o any_o time_n to_o give_v a_o stop_n to_o his_o increase_n of_o empery_n and_o restrain_v his_o enlargement_n of_o dominion_n which_o this_o cardinal_n aim_v at_o and_o for_o that_o cause_n he_o covetous_o embrace_v this_o occasion_n offer_v by_o the_o scot_n refusal_n of_o our_o book_n of_o common-prayer_n and_o present_o endeavour_v to_o insinuate_v the_o ancient_a league_n between_o their_o nation_n how_o willing_a the_o french_a will_v be_v to_o assist_v they_o in_o the_o defence_n of_o their_o religion_n law_n and_o liberty_n but_o the_o language_n which_o the_o scot_n best_a understand_v be_v the_o french_a crown_n for_o that_o wise_a state_n man_n well_o know_v how_o little_a gold_n be_v generate_v in_o that_o cold_a climate_n and_o how_o affect_v that_o nation_n be_v to_o that_o mettle_n for_o he_o believe_v they_o may_v be_v purchase_v not_o only_o to_o forfeit_v their_o allegiance_n but_o to_o sell_v their_o god_n for_o that_o coin_n and_o therefore_o he_o subtile_o disperse_v his_o crown_n among_o their_o poor_a nobility_n who_o receive_v they_o with_o condition_n of_o rebellion_n but_o yet_o dare_v not_o enter_v open_o into_o a_o hostile_a opposition_n of_o their_o king_n command_n until_o they_o be_v assure_v of_o a_o party_n in_o england_n and_o therefore_o the_o puritanical_a party_n of_o this_o kingdom_n must_v be_v tamper_v withal_o and_o according_o be_v and_o find_v right_o for_o their_o turn_n but_o these_o be_v but_o of_o the_o mean_a sort_n of_o people_n and_o such_o as_o be_v not_o able_a to_o raise_v any_o considerable_a power_n to_o countenance_v their_o undertake_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o some_o eminent_a lord_n shall_v be_v draw_v into_o the_o plot_n of_o which_o there_o be_v not_o many_o that_o be_v puritanical_o affect_v and_o therefore_o they_o must_v seek_v to_o gain_v such_o who_o be_v discontent_v because_o they_o be_v not_o countenance_v and_o enjoy_v office_n and_o honour_n at_o court_n to_o which_o their_o ambition_n prompt_v they_o this_o be_v by_o the_o industry_n of_o these_o man_n

of_o this_o conspiracy_n have_v since_o hearty_o repent_v see_v and_o now_o know_v what_o instrument_n they_o be_v make_v to_o contribute_v to_o the_o ruin_n of_o this_o kingdom_n but_o they_o understand_v his_o majesty_n have_v money_n in_o his_o purse_n and_o be_v beforehand_o with_o the_o world_n and_o until_o that_o be_v waste_v and_o he_o become_v poor_a there_o be_v no_o hope_n of_o bring_v he_o to_o comply_v with_o their_o end_n and_o therefore_o there_o must_v be_v a_o show_n of_o war_n before_o a_o real_a war_n and_o for_o this_o reason_n his_o majesty_n must_v be_v persuade_v to_o carry_v a_o army_n to_o the_o border_n of_o scotland_n to_o compel_v the_o scot_n to_o conformity_n and_o there_o he_o must_v have_v instrument_n to_o persuade_v he_o to_o lie_v still_o until_o his_o stock_n of_o money_n be_v spend_v treat_v and_o make_v and_o receive_v overture_n of_o peace_n which_o at_o last_o be_v conclude_v and_o the_o observation_n thereof_o solemn_o protest_v to_o

and_o rebel_n again_o and_o so_o short_o after_o they_o enter_v into_o england_n with_o a_o pretence_n to_o petition_v his_o majesty_n but_o not_o to_o fight_v but_o for_o their_o safety_n this_o petition_n must_v be_v present_v by_o a_o army_n and_o this_o army_n must_v possess_v themselves_o of_o town_n in_o england_n and_o must_v have_v all_o thing_n grant_v unto_o they_o which_o they_o can_v possible_o desire_v within_o the_o kingdom_n of_o scotland_n and_o this_o must_v be_v confirm_v unto_o they_o by_o act_n of_o parliament_n wherein_o his_o majesty_n must_v divest_v himself_o of_o all_o regal_a power_n and_o give_v up_o all_o into_o the_o hand_n of_o his_o scottish_a subject_n to_o be_v at_o their_o disposal_n which_o can_v not_o have_v be_v a_o ill_a bargain_n for_o his_o
