B. LONDON Printed for T. H. An Order from the House of Commons for the suppressing of Pamphlets THe Parliament haveing maturely considered of the manifold lyes and ementitious Pamphlets that have beene published to the great ignominy and dishonour of the State did appoint a select Committee for the restraint of all Libells And ordered that all lying Pamphlets should be suppressed and nothing Printed without Licence The temporizing Poets have broached such impudent scurrility and ementitious Pamphlets out of the inexhaust mintage of their roving fancies that the whole City is embroydred with nothing but incredible lyes that jars so much in the wearied eares of the World that the scarce-breathing mandrake could not digest the same These Needy-braines to purchase some commodious vailes from the foamy vapour of a scurrilous humour did strive to set their unconcocted wits to the highest pin that lying and Non-sence were the two coincedant twins that alway distilled from the nasty dregs of their Satyricall quills One of these Poeticall Satyres though he was a Night-Walker and in nocturnall darknesse * once escaped the Counter and another time Newgate yet he was the Arch-conduct of their harsh-tuned Chorus another did Bray like an Asse and became his Secondary and although he yeelded the precedency to the former for he * was the most lying knave yet he was not so nihilate a Cypher but that he challenged the second place in an Arithmeticall * order to himselfe Another Harberd his froathy Muse in the Rheumaticke exhalations of muddy taplash which made his fancy so extreamly dull that when he writ any thing every What lack you Sir or Stationers Apprentice could conceive it to be Harberts Lye Thus these three like Triple-headed Cerberus nursed their viperous muses in Acharon and fomented them in Stygian gall greedily byting the fame of every Delinquent whom they will not permit onely to suffer quietly Parliamentary Justice but they also will nettle them afresh with their goosequil censure Since the Earle of Straffords death there have been above three hundred lying Pamphlets printed to my credible enumeration First then the Lord Lievtenants Speech * fabulously fathred upon him in the Tower but protested against by such eminent Persons as accompanied him some time before his execution his Vltimum Vale his pittifull Elegies fathred upon himselfe his amorous Re-greet to Cloriuda his Ghost suppositions Dialogue betwixt him and the Lords Grace of Canterbury Canterburys Dreame Lambeth Faire where such rascally stuffe is imployed to the consumption of paper as the perusall of it would make an Horse breake his halter as is vulgarly said with his Recantation penned by an Amsterdamian pedant his Potion lately ministred by an Antimonian Empyrick with his Tooles composed by a company of fooles and his Last Will and Testament To see the Metropolitan of a flourishing State thus opprobiously abused is an insufferable thing and ought not to be tollerated yet if he be culpable peccant the Law is sufficient to curb him he ought to suffer according to its censure but to see his grave made before his eys with lying libels or to encounter with such extreams as the blasting tongue of infamy is an act of higher suffering then the just censure of Law may permit Then many other of the Clergy have beene most ignominiously abused as in the Articles against D. Beale and D. Cosins and M. Squire of Shorditch they were all Poetically feigned and ementitious wherein they were highly impeached as if the Articles had beene presented to the Parliament when they were meere fictitious the Dialogue betwixt D.
