A93511 Some queries propounded to the Common-Councell, and citizens of London, concerning the armies demand of having the militia of London of the 4th of May changed. Wherein the unreasonablenesse and great danger of that proposall, and the justifiablenesse of the cities refusall both in law and conscience, are fully demonstrated. 1647 (1647) Wing S4561A; Thomason E400_26; ESTC R201757 10,141 15

unquestionable_o of_o freedom_n and_o liberty_n and_o in_o full_a house_n upon_o mature_a deliberation_n and_o after_o many_o day_n debate_n after_o answer_v all_o objection_n against_o the_o person_n

nomination_n choice_n of_o the_o person_n to_o be_v approve_v by_o the_o parliament_n be_v to_o be_v judge_v more_o valid_a bind_n or_o a_o ordinance_n make_v after_o member_n drive_v away_o by_o the_o threat_n and_o approach_n of_o a_o army_n and_o upon_o the_o demand_n of_o a_o army_n and_o in_o a_o thin_a house_n of_o commons_o and_o conclude_v upon_o on_o a_o sudden_a 2._o whether_o or_o no_o if_o the_o parliament_n by_o ordinance_n after_o mature_a advice_n and_o deliberation_n in_o full_a parliament_n have_v give_v the_o city_n of_o london_n towards_o the_o payment_n of_o their_o debt_n five_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n and_o thereupon_o the_o city_n have_v be_v in_o possession_n of_o the_o money_n in_o case_n the_o parliament_n upon_o another_o ordinance_n make_v upon_o the_o desire_n of_o the_o army_n after_o threaten_n and_o drive_v away_o member_n shall_v have_v revoke_v this_o money_n whether_o will_v the_o city_n hold_v themselves_o bind_v in_o law_n or_o conscience_n to_o part_v with_o it_o and_o if_o not_o as_o i_o suppose_v they_o will_v not_o then_o i_o conceive_v they_o be_v less_o bind_v to_o part_n with_o their_o militia_n as_o be_v much_o more_o to_o they_o without_o which_o they_o can_v neither_o keep_v their_o estate_n life_n or_o liberty_n but_o all_o they_o have_v as_o the_o case_n stand_v be_v expose_v to_o ruin_n 3._o whether_o it_o will_v not_o have_v be_v judge_v and_o cry_v out_o of_o in_o the_o king_n as_o great_a injustice_n breach_n of_o the_o liberty_n of_o the_o subject_a etc._n etc._n when_o he_o have_v give_v the_o grant_n of_o any_o thing_n for_o life_n or_o for_o term_n of_o year_n under_o the_o great_a seal_n he_o shall_v upon_o his_o own_o will_n without_o any_o fault_n in_o the_o person_n have_v take_v it_o from_o they_o before_o half_a the_o time_n expire_v and_o if_o it_o will_v be_v so_o in_o the_o king_n what_o be_v it_o in_o the_o parliament_n to_o recall_v the_o militia_n before_o half_a the_o time_n be_v out_o 4._o what_o be_v any_o ordinance_n of_o parliament_n worth_n or_o will_v be_v account_v of_o by_o any_o if_o as_o soon_o as_o it_o be_v grant_v it_o may_v be_v thus_o recall_v and_o upon_o what_o a_o slender_a foundation_n or_o break_a reed_n will_v not_o man_n say_v they_o have_v build_v on_o all_o this_o while_n in_o lend_v those_o vast_a sum_n of_o money_n to_o the_o state_n and_o in_o act_v for_o the_o parliament_n if_o ordinance_n by_o the_o parliament_n itself_o be_v so_o easy_o make_v void_a and_o break_v will_v ever_o man_n venture_v their_o life_n and_o estate_n upon_o ordinance_n 5._o whether_o the_o army_n desire_v of_o have_v the_o militia_n thus_o change_v and_o put_v the_o parliament_n so_o upon_o it_o to_o take_v it_o away_o against_o the_o will_n of_o the_o common_a council_n and_o person_n entrust_v without_o any_o reason_n at_o all_o give_v or_o unfaithfulnesse_n find_v in_o they_o be_v not_o to_o put_v the_o parliament_n upon_o exercise_v a_o mere_a arbitrary_a power_n and_o to_o rule_v by_o will_n and_o so_o against_o the_o common_a right_n and_o liberty_n of_o the_o subject_a so_o much_o complain_v of_o by_o the_o army_n in_o all_o their_o representation_n remonstrance_n declaration_n letter_n and_o make_v the_o ground_n of_o their_o refuse_v to_o disband_v and_o of_o all_o the_o late_a difference_n between_o they_o and_o the_o

judicature_n and_o the_o great_a council_n of_o a_o kingdom_n when_o upon_o mature_a deliberation_n and_o weighty_a reason_n in_o the_o most_o legal_a way_n and_o with_o the_o best_a security_n they_o have_v grant_v a_o thing_n to_o person_n high_o deserve_v of_o they_o and_o of_o know_a fidelity_n to_o they_o and_o the_o public_a to_o take_v it_o away_o of_o a_o sudden_a without_o give_v any_o
