A96516	The sope-patentees of Londons petition opened and explained. Or, The unmasking of these cruel sope-patentees deceitful petition, presented by them to the Honorable House of Commons. Wherein you have a discovery made (in part and but in part) of the great sufferings of this common-wealth: as also of the special sufferings of some free-born subjects in their liberties and estates, sustained by these cruel sope-monopolers. / By Richard Wilkins.	Wilkins, Richard.	1646 (1646)	Wing W2216; Thomason E349_20; ESTC R201036	16,626	24

party_n do_v not_o recover_v nor_o do_v the_o jury_n award_v in_o damage_n more_o no_o not_o so_o much_o as_o the_o plaintiff_n prove_v that_o they_o have_v sustain_v by_o these_o cruel_a patentees_n i_o will_v now_o conclude_v speak_v of_o and_o to_o the_o subject_a matter_n or_o body_n of_o their_o petition_n with_o the_o observe_v some_o short_a note_n that_o be_v deductable_a probable_o from_o the_o closier_n of_o this_o first_o general_a part_n of_o this_o petition_n which_o be_v this_o that_o they_o have_v be_v serviceable_a and_o still_o desire_v to_o be_v to_o the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n by_o great_a engage_v of_o their_o purse_n and_o person_n their_o end_n and_o intention_n in_o this_o expression_n undoubted_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v to_o render_v they_o friend_n and_o not_o enemy_n to_o king_n and_o kingdom_n have_v hint_v to_o you_o their_o end_n i_o will_v give_v you_o the_o observation_n first_o if_o you_o consider_v how_o these_o petitioner_n be_v enemy_n as_o be_v above_o express_v and_o then_o take_v their_o be_v serviceable_a to_o king_n and_o kingdom_n by_o way_n of_o co-●n●ction_a then_o the_o probable_a result_n of_o these_o word_n may_v be_v this_o that_o they_o have_v give_v assistance_n to_o both_o side_n and_o there_o be_v reason_n to_o be_v render_v because_o that_o at_o the_o break_n up_o of_o the_o last_o parliament_n may_v 1640._o they_o do_v give_v the_o king_n ten_o or_o twelve_o thousand_o pound_n to_o take_v up_o their_o patent_n again_o which_o they_o have_v surrender_v in_o hope_n never_o to_o see_v parliament_n more_o in_o england_n which_o money_n as_o be_v suppose_v be_v give_v as_o a_o additional_a assistance_n against_o the_o scot_n second_o if_o you_o consider_v that_o if_o the_o parliament_n do_v prevail_v they_o be_v accountable_a for_o their_o delinquency_n then_o their_o give_a assistance_n probable_o be_v polity_n and_o not_o piety_n self-seeking_a not_o god_n glory_n themselves_o not_o the_o kingdom_n good_a three_o if_o you_o do_v consider_v that_o they_o do_v oppressive_o detain_v the_o other_o petitioner_n estate_n and_o the_o advantage_n they_o make_v of_o that_o detainer_n to_o the_o disable_n of_o they_o which_o be_v cordial_a for_o the_o parliament_n and_o have_v as_o far_o engage_v their_o person_n as_o those_o patentee_n it_o afford_v these_o two_o proposition_n 1._o that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o engage_v of_o their_o own_o but_o other_o man_n purse_n 2._o that_o their_o engage_v of_o their_o purse_n be_v not_o a_o advantage_n but_o a_o damage_n to_o the_o parliament_n cause_n i_o have_v do_v with_o the_o first_o general_a part_n i_o shall_v only_o observe_v some_o few_o thing_n from_o the_o other_o two_o general_a part_n and_o so_o conclude_v 1._o that_o these_o patentce_n be_v most_o ready_a and_o willing_a to_o make_v satisfaction_n to_o all_o that_o can_v make_v it_o appear_v that_o they_o have_v wrong_v they_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o their_o willingness_n that_o satisfaction_n shall_v be_v give_v do_v not_o lie_v in_o their_o desire_n of_o make_v restitution_n but_o in_o this_o that_o they_o be_v most_o willing_a to_o be_v disburden_v of_o the_o suit_n at_o law_n against_o they_o commence_v by_o the_o parliament_n force_v their_o fellow_n projector_n thereunto_o 2._o that_o of_o all_o the_o good_n they_o have_v forcible_o and_o oppressive_o take_v and_o spoil_v of_o the_o other_o soap-boilers_a they_o never_o receive_v one_o penny_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o all_o the_o good_n that_o be_v by_o they_o seize_v and_o spoil_v of_o the_o oppress_a soap-boilers_a be_v seize_v for_o the_o use_n of_o these_o projector_n one_o moiety_n thereof_o and_o the_o other_o moiety_n for_o the_o use_n of_o the_o king_n majesty_n and_o be_v by_o these_o projector_n appointment_n and_o command_n seize_v and_o bring_v to_o their_o own_o house_n and_o convert_v to_o their_o own_o use_n which_o be_v evident_a by_o their_o patent_n by_o which_o grant_v col_n john_n hardwick_n captain_n john_n hayes_n james_n baker_n and_o jonathan_n mot_n member_n of_o that_o illegal_a corporation_n be_v constitute_v and_o ordain_v searcher_n of_o the_o say_a company_n some_o of_o they_o barbarous_o break_v into_o house_n seize_v and_o carry_v away_o man_n good_n other_o receive_v in_o the_o good_n illegal_o seize_v and_o carry_v away_o witness_v the_o account_n that_o col_n john_n hardwick_n make_v in_o the_o exchequer_n upon_o his_o oath_n who_o be_v one_o of_o the_o first_o searcher_n and_o most_o active_a member_n of_o that_o patent_n there_o be_v one_o thing_n which_o i_o will_v relate_v to_o you_o which_o be_v not_o only_o a_o aggravation_n of_o this_o strange_a and_o i_o presume_v unparallelled_a presumption_n of_o they_o in_o dare_v to_o present_a to_o so_o honourable_a a_o assembly_n as_o the_o high_a honourable_a house_n of_o commons_o so_o deceive_v and_o vain_a a_o petition_n as_o this_o but_o also_o discover_v to_o what_o a_o height_n of_o wickedness_n what_o dangerous_a design_n coveteousnesse_n will_v put_v man_n upon_o the_o relation_n be_v this_o what_o these_o petitioner_n have_v here_o untrue_o affirm_v namely_o that_o not_o one_o penny_n of_o the_o good_n seize_v come_v to_o they_o anthony_n whitwel_n one_o of_o these_o sope-patentees_a do_v false_o depose_v the_o same_o at_o a_o trial_n between_o john_n doughty_n plaintiff_n and_o col_n john_n hardwick_n and_o other_o patentee_n defendant_n which_o perjury_n be_v to_o the_o damage_n of_o the_o plaintiff_n doughty_n 200_o l._n as_o the_o jury_n then_o confess_v and_o have_v be_v since_o prove_v at_o the_o trial_n of_o the_o action_n upon_o a_o statute_n of_o perjury_n which_o the_o say_v doughty_n do_v bring_v and_o prove_v against_o the_o say_a anthony_n whitwel_n and_o the_o jury_n do_v at_o trial_n find_v he_o guilty_a of_o perjury_n against_o the_o plaintiff_n commit_v in_o the_o former_a action_n to_o his_o damage_n of_o 200._o l._n and_o do_v find_v in_o damage_n according_a to_o the_o limitation_n of_o the_o statute_n but_o there_o be_v a_o special_a verdict_n find_v by_o the_o direction_n of_o the_o judge_n for_o that_o the_o plaintiff_n attorney_n do_v not_o produce_v a_o copy_n of_o the_o original_a in_o the_o former_a action_n and_o since_o have_v compound_v for_o the_o same_o i_o have_v mention_v this_o to_o show_v of_o what_o validity_n their_o word_n be_v and_o the_o rather_o for_o this_o reason_n because_o one_o of_o the_o petitioner_n have_v tell_v i_o since_o his_o conviction_n that_o they_o all_o will_v take_v the_o same_o oath_n thus_o you_o see_v these_o man_n as_o they_o do_v not_o leave_v any_o way_n of_o cruelty_n unattempted_a and_o act_v that_o may_v conduce_v to_o accomplish_v their_o covetous_a design_n though_o never_o so_o destructive_a to_o the_o commonwealth_n and_o ruinous_a to_o their_o fellow_n subject_n in_o their_o estares_n and_o liberties_n so_o now_o they_o will_v not_o cease_v cover_v their_o sin_n with_o lie_n even_o with_o a_o oath_n 3._o that_o many_o of_o their_o company_n that_o have_v great_a benefit_n by_o their_o patent_n then_o themselves_o refuse_v to_o join_v in_o make_v satisfaction_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o there_o be_v not_o many_o that_o refuse_v have_v great_a benefit_n 2._o that_o this_o be_v in_o the_o most_o part_n of_o it_o rather_o a_o pretence_n then_o real_a matter_n of_o complaint_n for_o the_o petitioner_n dare_v not_o cause_v all_o those_o which_o they_o have_v nominate_v and_o present_v to_o the_o honourable_a committee_n of_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o for_o petition_n to_o be_v compel_v to_o join_v with_o they_o in_o make_v restitution_n much_o more_o may_v be_v speak_v to_o these_o three_o particular_n to_o show_v how_o they_o endeavour_v to_o deceive_v the_o honourable_a house_n of_o commons_o by_o these_o vain_a word_n but_o i_o will_v neither_o trouble_v myself_o or_o you_o because_o it_o be_v not_o material_a to_o the_o judge_n to_o hinder_v he_o in_o execution_n of_o justice_n whether_o the_o malefactor_n be_v willing_a or_o not_o will_v to_o be_v try_v whether_o
