A96697 A new-yeers gift for the Parliament and Armie: shewing what the kingly power is; and that the cause of those that they call Diggers is the life and marrow of that cause the Parliament hath declared for, and the Army fought for; the perfecting of which work, will prove England to be the first of nations, of the tenth part of the city Babylon, that fals off from the Beast first, and that sets the Crown upon Christs head, to govern the world in righteousness: / by Jerrard Winstanley a lover of Englands freedom and peace.

but_o i_o say_v cast_v out_o their_o power_n whereby_o they_o hold_v the_o people_n in_o bondage_n as_o the_o king_n hold_v they_o in_o bondage_n and_o i_o say_v it_o be_v our_o own_o freedom_n we_o
