Wherein by a short survey and ani-mad-versions of some of his falsities, fooleries, non-sense, blasphemies, forreigne and domesticke, uncivill, civill treasons, seditions, incitations, and precontrivements, in mustering, rallying, training and leading forth into publique so many ensignes of examples of old reviv'd rebells, or new devised chimeraes.

over his Fleta it may teach him more Law and Conscience then to excuse the Rebellion in England by a Rebellion in Ireland of their owne making as that is the best colour which yet this Brazen face can cast upon it Pag. 25. and 26. he comes upon us with a drove of Bulls of his owne usuall Breeding That the Parliament meaning the two Houses onely cannot be guilty of Treason secondly that the Statutes against Treason extends not to them thirdly that they are greater then the King fourthly that the Oathes of Allegiance and Supremacy bind onely in Relation to the Pope and Forreigne States but not with reference to the Houses or onely out of Parliament time not whilest the Parliament is sitting These are such Mockado Fustian Non sense and such silly Childish shufflings as that the sense in plaine English is to say That the King hath Authority against other Princes but no power over his owne Subjects or that those in his owne Realmes are his Soveraignes and other Soveraignes are his Subjects or when he consults the most carefullest for the good of his Kingdomes he desires to be required by being unking'd by them such strange Paradoxes absurd Solesismes and monsters of Policy Morality Reason Nature and Religion are the off-spring of this new State Emperick who perhaps expects other applause or at the least Approbation as he is assured of his owne Narcissian admiration onely because he sees but the shadow understands not the substance of what he superficially delineates by a Pen that drops Poyson instead of Inke to support the pretended Feares and Iealousies by an enumeration and malitious interpretation of all the acts of Iustice since the third yeare of his now Majesties Raigne upon those who were restrained from bringing this Rebellion sooner to the Birth give Prinne but such another Fee as he had at his Triumphall Returne to London and he will be an Advocate for those in the third of Iacobi and for those in the 13 of Queene Elizabeth yea for Ravilliac Iudas and Lucifer for all were but Rebells and Traitors onely one was a little elder then the other Thus from the 25 pag. to the 40. he reckons up a pack of grievances wherewith the Subject was charged which were all redressed long agoe assoone as His Majesty was rightly certified of them but no Acts of Grace can procure an expiation from inexorable Master Prinne But why trouble I my selfe to satisfie one whom Reason cannot satisfie one whom no Protestations or Oathes of Princes no Acts of Grace or Statutes past in Parliament can satisfie and therefore let him rest unsatisfied till he be hanged He is ill to trust who will trust no body the Proverbe tells us yet for this once let him goe on give him Rope enough and he will hang himselfe In his 40 pag. he saith the King hath no power to chuse his Privy Councellors but Prinne and his Magnificent Members would have the chusing and authorizing of new Privy Counsellors and Officers of State for those he tells us his Vtopian Parliament hath power to appoint yet the King may not chuse or appoint any of them their servants he should have added in time of Rebellion In pag. 41 to 64. and so from thence to 65 and 79 he prates to little or no purpose that the King hath no Negative Voyce but what the undeceived Majesty of the vulgar Captaine Highshoes and Colonell Mawworme and their companions please to propose must be granted who till those can agree whether the Lord Say or the right horrible Kimbolton shall be Protector his Excellency or the Lady Waller high Constable of England Pym or Prinne for I hope he will not plead all this while for other folkes and forget himselfe Lord Keeper of the new great Seale Sergeant Wilde or Speaker Lenthall Master of the Rolls Burton or Marshall Archbishop for that calling would be as lawfull in one of their hands as the Court of Wards was when the Lord Say was Master of it Peard Glinne or Prideaux chiefe Iustices Feilding or Stamford for they are both vertuous and thrifty men Lord Treasurer I would entreat Warwicke to provide for his owne and their security in the Admirall Ship of Fooles and wish a faire Gale for them as farre as New-England till they shall learne more sincerity in Religion more loyalty to their Soveraigne more charity to their Christian Brethren and Prinne cease falsifying and perverting Records Presidents and Allegations and then a Property maker hath promised to restore his Eares againe in the meane time let him confesse himselfe worthily Branded for Falsifying Lying and Slandering even Scandala Magnatum Forgerie False witnesse bearing Perjury and all manner of Villany with which his Bookes swarme as thick as the lower House doore did with Brownists Anabaptists at the beginning of this Parliament or as Westminster-Hall and the Pallace yard did with Tumults before the death of the Earle of Strafford or the putting the Bishops out of the House or as the high wayes and streets did with Puritan Punks when Prinne and his fellowes St Rebells return'd from Limbo to be Canoniz'd at London which City they have ever since transform'd to be a Hell upon Earth Further to roote the seduced people in dislike of his Sacred Majesty and to make them Irrevocable Rebels as also to blast the Integrity of his Majesties Royall Person his Honourable Councellours and Servants he names Ganestone and the Spencers Empson and Dudley and others that were displaced by Parliaments for Delinquencie 't is right William but those Parliaments had proofes for what they did and the King was with them and confirm'd their censures but you are not so much as the bares Skelliton of a Parliament which if it were a full Body yet it wants a head therefore all your Votes and censures are Headlesse Page 48. his running head talkes of a Parliament in Running Mead near Windsor wherein King John Assented to such Acts of setling and securing Magna-Charta and all other good Lawes and Liberties formerly granted I tell thee Prinne that King Iohn did well in so Assenting to his Peeres and Commons for then and there their requests were just and Lawfull neither did King Charles a more Christian and surer Titled King then King Iohn ever deny his Royall Assent to any just request for the Redresse of greivances releife of His Subjects and Tranquillity of his Kingdomes Page 55. He hath a fling at Alice Pierce King Edward the Third's Concubine 't is marvell that Rosamond and Jane Shore scap'd him and it had been as congruent for him to have brought in Lais Thais Faustine Messalina and all the rabble of royall and base Whores that have been since the Creation for what though Alice Pierce being her selfe proud of the favour of so puissant a King did sometimes with impudent and uncivill behaviour intrude her selfe to sit with the Iudges on the Bench to countenance and preferre some private Causes for her own ends
