Not prevalent surely for the Parliament was soon after Dissolved and the House of Commons having Intimation of their intended Dissolution made what hast they could to perfect a Remonstrance or Declaration against the Duke of Buckingham and concerning Tunnage and Poundage taken by the King since his Fathers death without consent in Parliament and which were never payable they say in their Remonstrance to any of his Majesties Ancestors but only by a special Act of Parliament and ought not to be levyed without such an Act. Tant And did the King go on Collecting and taking Tunnage and Poundage notwithstanding Tory. Yes he said he could not want it and sent them a former Message that if He had not a timely supply He would betake himself to New Councils Tant New Councils what were they Tory. The Commons in their said Remonstrance often with thoughtful Hearts remember the words New-Councils repeating and Repeating them as if they were somewhat against the old Parliamentary Councils and course of this Kingdom and they Order'd every Member of the House to have a Copy of the said Remonstrance for they had not time to Present it to his Gracious Majesty but were Dissolv'd though the Lords also prepared a Petition to stay the Kings purpose in Dissolving the Parliament sending Viscount Mandevil Earl of Manchester Lord President of his Majesties Council the Earls of Pembrook Carlisle and Holland to entreat his Majesty to give Audience to the whole House of Peers But the King returned Answer that his Resolution was to hear no motion for that purpose but He would Dissolve the Parliament and he was then as good as his Word for he immediately Dissolved them by Commission under the great Seal Dated at Westminster June 15.2 R. R. Car. 1. 1626. To that purpose And withall Publishes a Declaration in Print concerning the Grounds and Causes which moved his Majesty to Dissolve this as also the former Parliament Dated June 13. 2 Car. 1. two dayes before the Date of the Commission Tant It was the readyer against the time of using it Coleman was as provident Tory. Right And also a Proclamation was published against the said Remonstrance of the Commons commanding all Persons of what Quality soever who have or shall have hereafter any Copyes or Notes of the said Remonstrance forthwith to Burn the same that the Memory thereof might be utterly abolished upon Pain of his Majesties Indignation and high Displeasure Tant Then the Tide did run very high Tory. The King also Published another Proclamation against Preaching or Disputing the Arminian Controversies Pro or Con but the effects of that Proclamation how equally soever intended became the stopping of the Puritan's Mouths and an uncontroul'd Liberty to the Tongues and Pens of the thriving Divinity-men the rising side Mountagues Party And though the Parliament was Dissolv'd so that the Duke of Buckingham for that nearly-reflecting Article the last against him which the King in Honour and by the Bonds of natural Affection and Piety to the Memory of his Deceased Father thought himself obliged to Call him to a publick account for so Daring an Insolence in applying a Plaister to the Kings breast against his Will and without the Advice and contrary to the Opinion of the Sworn Physitians of King James who attributed the Cause of his trouble unto the said Pla●●●●● and a Drink that Buckingham gave him as was Alledged in the Thirteenth Article of the Dukes Impeachment and the said Drink twice given to the King by Buckingham's own Hands and a third time refused by the King who felt great Impairment of his Life and Health complaining of the Drink that the Duke gave him His Physitians telling him to Please him and Comfort him that His second Impairment was from cold taken or some other ordinary Cause No no said his Majesty It is that which I had from Buckingham as more at large much aggravated and insisted upon by Mr. Wandesford who managed the Thirteenth Article of the Impeachment against Buckingham Tant But what

THE SECOND PART OF THE History of Whiggisme OR THE Whiggish-PLOTS PRINCIPLES and PRACTICES Mining and Countermining THE TORY-PLOTS PRINCIPLES and PRACTICES In REIGN of King CHARLES I. TORY ONce more well met Mr. Tantivee and honest Whigg Tantivee Whigg We come on purpose to hear the Continuation of your History of Whiggisme Tory. I neither am able nor do I pretend to tell you any thing but what is to be found in Chronicles Histories and at large already in Print Tant Ay but I have not Money to buy them nor Leisure to read large Volumes give us onely an Abridgment out of those vaster Collections in relation only to the Whiggisme of them Tory. With all my heart where left I off Tant At Mr. Moor's Release and Discharge by his Gracious Majesty Charles 1. and the Imprisonment and Release of the Earl of Arundel Tory. Oh! 'T is Right Whigg But was not that part of the Kings Answer about the Imprisonment of the Earl of Arundel namely My Lords By this I do not mean to shew the Power of a King by diminishing your Priviledges ill resented by the House of Lords Tory. It plainly Intimated that the King thought He had such a Power or some about him made him believe he had such a Power of a King to Diminish their Priviledges but he did not mean to show it Tant No the more Gracious King He. Tory. However the House of Lords were so Allarum'd at the Expression that lest they should happen to have a King that was less Gracious or of a worse Meaning they would not meddle with any Business 'till they had secured as well as claim'd their Priviledges by another Tenure than what was meerly Arbitrary Ad libitum Regis and therefore Adjourn'd in Disgust resolving unanimously to take nothing into Consideration 'till they had Contrived how their Priviledges might be Secur'd to Posterity which being perceiv'd the Earl of Arundel as you have heard was Releas't to them for which he was thankfull Tant Ay that was right Tory-like and most Loyally done some Whiggs would not so Religiously have Kist the Rod that whips them Whigg 'T is somewhat against the Grain of Humanity to fawn Spaniel-like upon the Hand that beats them Tant Some men are so Loyal as to make a Legg at every Box of the Ear Who may say to a King what dost thou Whigg Misapply'd and Misconstru'd Scriptures make up a Tantivee and makes a man be a Tantivee Tant Why Is not the King's Will a Law Whigg In France they say and in Turkey not in England for so the Barons of England told the two Cardinals whom the Pope sent to Reconcile the Differences betwixt King and People about Magna Charta Liberties and Prerogative That there were many Worthy and Learned men in the Kingdom whose Council they would use and not Strangers who knew not the cause of their Commotion in the Reign of K. Edward 2. Tory. No I must confess that Forreigners unacquainted with the Fundamental Constitution of our Government and Laws are no Competent Judges of the lawfulness or unlawfulness of Contests betwixt King and People Whigg Ay the English were alwayes tender of their Liberties Tant But if English Kings did Invade their Liberties they used no Remedy I hope but Prayers and Tears Whigg And Bows and Arrows and long Swords until the Kings were Contented to Rule them according to their Oath and the Law of the Land Tant Ay Perhaps when they happened to have some easie weak timerous and condescending King Whigg No In such a juncture they were alwayes the calmer but grew rough raging high and boysterous the more vehement strong and tempestuous their Kings were as for Instance in Edw. 1. another Saul for he was higher and taller than ordinary men by the Head and Shoulders and as Tyrannical too as King Saul was He at one time at the Instigation of William Marchian then Lord Treasurer fetch 't all the Riches out of the Churches and Religious Houses and put it into his own Exchequer Loans Benevolences the Writ of Trailbaston great Fines were used by him in the Seventeenth Year of his Reign he Fined all his Judges pretending for Corruption the least of them one thousand Marks an immense Summe in those dayes but some of them two thousand some three thousand some four thousand some six thousand and the Chief Justice Sir Ralph de Hengham seven thousand Marks the Chief Baron Sir Adam Stratton four and thirty thousand Marks but from Thomas Wayland all his Goods and whole Estate Confiscate and himself Banish't and just so he used the Jews which were then in England very rich and very numerous 'T is said of K. Hen. 8. that he never Spared Man in his Anger nor Woman in his Lust but King Edw. 1. was as resolv'd as he as Couragious and Stout leaving the Marks of his personal Valour the Trophies of his Victories in the Holy-land before he was King but he could Disguise his furious Resentments and Adjourn Revenge seven and seven Years 'till he could safely Execute it Tant Safely why who should or durst say to that most Couragious and Victorious King that thrice Conquer'd Scotland France and Wales What dost thou Whigg His own People and Subjects forc't him to reason and to Rule them according to Law his Oath and Magna Charta the Parliament-men came to his Parliament Attended with Armed men very numerous at Stamford 28 Edw. 1. to make him fulfill and Execute the Charter of the Forrest says Walsingham and Knighton two Famous Historians of those times Rex Angliae sub his diebus Parliamentum tenuit Stamford ad quod convenerunt Comites Barones cum equis armis co prout dicebatur proposito ut Executionem Chartae de Foresta hactenùs dilatam extorquerent mind that ad plenum Tant Ay but how did the Stout King Edward Treat these Armed Petitioners Whigg They ask't nothing but what the Laws and his own Oath ought to have Compelled him unto and the King yielded to their Requests Rex autem eorum Instantiam Importunitatem attendens eorum voluntati in omnibus condescendit Knighton sayes De quâ re Rex Integrè plenè eorum voluntatem Implevit ad vota in which matter the King fully and wholly granted their Desires to their Wishes Tant It was very civilly done of him Whigg It was wisely and honestly done and as his Coronation Oath Equity Reason Conscience and the Laws from none of which English Kings pretend to be exempt did adjure him and Constrain him and they are devillish Councellors and the Kings worst Enemies and Traitors that perswade him to act contrary to Law Power is high enough without being wanton and lasts longest when it is not Stretcht to the height or Over-stretcht 't is a wonder that a thing so uneasie should please Tory. Ambition and Covetousness know no bounds and I have read King Edward got the Pope to set him free from the

for there he was Stabb'd by Lieutenant Felton Whigg Upon what Provocation Tory. I 'le tell you anon as for the Loans the King Promis'd that this way should not be made a President for the time to come to charge them or their Posterity to the Prejudice of their Just and Ancient Liberties enjoyed under his most Noble Progenitors and Promising them In the Word of a Prince to repay such Summes Tant That is to be understood when he has the Money to repay Whigg Yes but that time never yet came Tant I am not for this kind of Lending whether I will or no and without being able to sue for or recover neither by fair means nor foul neither Principal nor Interest I 'le Swear Whigg Nay Do not Swear I 'le believe the Parson without Searing for Men of thy Coat and Tantivee-principle seldom put out Money to Interest or Use except to the Ale-house or Tavern to wipe out the Chalk and clear old Scores and then run fresh upon Tick again what needs thou to care for the Liberties and Charters of an English-man thou hast no Inheritance to lose nor will thy Heirs fall out or quarrel about the Land thou leavest them thou wilt take a Course for that and make thine own Hands and Guts thy Executors Tory. To the Imposition of Loans was added the Burthen of Billeting of Souldiers return'd from that unsuccesseful and dishonourable Voyage from Cadiz and Moneys to discharge their quarters were for the present to be levyed upon the Countrey to be repay'd out of Summes Collected upon the General Loan Tant Yes when they could catch it Tory. The Companies were scattered here and there all the Kingdom over but that did not much affright men out of their Purses though many Felonies Robberies Rapes and Murders were Committed by the Souldiers and Mariners but they were governed by Martial-law and some were Executed but they Mastered the People disturbed the Peace of Families committed frequent Rapes Burglaries and Robberies Murthers and Barbarous Cruelties which made a general Outcry and Lamentation wherever they came but the Lord Chief Justice Sir Randolph Crew lost his Place for not favouring the Loan and in his room succeeded a right Cavalier Sir Nicholas Hide who yet for his Abilities and Skill in Law might without blushing climb up to the Bench but he could not without great disgust and general Prejudice succeed a man so universally belov'd as was Sir Randolph Crew To advance this Loan one Sibthorp had contriv'd a Tantivee-Sermon Preached by him at Northampton at Lent Assiizes upon Rom. 13.7 called Apostolical Obedience and by all means the Divinity must be in Print or else you 'l say how could it have reacht the Ears of Bishop Laud or made room for Preferment And Archbishop Abbot must License it under his own Hand or take what followes Tant Why sure he would not lose his Archbishoprick for want of Subscribing his Name Tory. He refused to do it though the Court prest him earnestly to do it and his Archbishoprick was Sequestred soon after Whigg Some said it was Bishop Lauds Policy to pick a Quarrel with him if he refused to obey the Kings Commands or expose him to the Indignation of a Parliament if he dared to License such Tantivee-Stuff and illegal and wicked Positions some called them Traiterous Positions he affirmed that the Prince who is the Head and makes his Court and Council it is his Duty to direct and make Laws Eccles 8.3 4. He doth whatsoever pleases him where the word of the the King is there is power and who may say unto him What dost thou And If Princes Command any thing which Subjects may not Perform because 't is against the Laws of God or of Nature or Impossible yet Subjects are bound to undergoe the Punishment without either resisting or railing or reviling and so to yield a Passive Obedience where they cannot exhibit an active one I know no other Case but one of these three wherein a Subject may excuse himself with Passive Obedience but in all other he is bound to Active Obedience sayes Sybthorp Tory. He had forgot the Laws of this Land which all Kings are bound and Sworn to obey for the municipal Laws are not immediately any of those three and Doctor Manwaring he fisht for Preferment with two Sermons to Drill in the Loan though against Law as the King confest in after Statutes as also the Ship-writs Condemn'd by the King 16 Car. 1.14 But those Court-Sermons did Mischief awhile though in Conclusion the Court-Parasites smarted for their sawcy rashness and falshood Manwaring asserting that the King is not bound to observe the Laws of the Realm concerning the Subjects Rights and Liberties Whigg This is just like the Popes Pardon and Absolving King Edward of and from the Obligation of his Coronation-Oath Vows and Promises Tory. Manwaring also asserted that those who refused to pay the Loan Offended against the Law of God Tant Did he find that in the Bible Tory. And that the Authority of Parliament is not necessary for the raising of Aids and Subsidies Whigg 'T is a wonder to me that the Parliament let him escape after this what sets a Kingdom in a flame but these Incendiaries that do not or will not know the Constitution of this Kingdom and Common-wealth An equal Bridle to curb Tyranny and Arbitrary Sway on the one hand and Anarchy and Confusion on the other Tory. Ay our Laws are good enough none better Whigg Then what Traytors and Villains are they that dare debauch the fundamental Constitutions and Laws Tory. It was the way to Preferment Whigg The way to the Gallowes was it not better a hundred thousand such Sycophants were Hang'd than a good King and his Laws Betray'd and the Kingdom Involv'd in blood through their sly Tantivee-leasings and Insinuations Tory. Bishop Laud was the Man and all in all with the King all Preferments in Church and State he annuated or He and Buckingham though they so mischeivously to the King and State countenanc't the Loan so contrary to the grants of the great Charter and the Subjects Liberties and Properties which the King was bound by Oath and Duty to Preserve and Observe and was ready to do it of his own Benignity and Goodness but those Court-Parasites ruin'd all at length and themselves too Popery and Arbitrary Sway are Twins alwayes coupled the Queen had great Influence upon the Favourites either to make or marre them and they knew it as well and the Jesuits had too much Influence over her what by fair means what by foul but the King was angry when he heard they made her for Penance walk bare-foot to Tyburn Whigg The Jesuits Ay they are pretty Creatures for Princes to be Slaves unto and to become their Vassals and Instruments they have got the two Reyns into their own hands that guide the silly World namely Hope and Fear whom the hopes of Heaven cannot allure to their purposes the

King know himself to be ordain'd for his People and not his People for him Wherefore I will never be asham'd to confess it my Principal to be the great Servant of the Common-wealth c. Tory. Ay but we Toryes are not of King James 's mind but quite contrary Whig Right therefore you are most rightly called Tories meer Irish-Bogg-Trotters and Slaves that would be more like than Englishmen because you are Slaves to your Lusts of Avarice and Ambition to gratifie which you will gratifie any other mans Ambition to advance your own and as they say lick up other mens Spitle poor Currs in hopes that others will lick up yours Tory. Ay thouart a Hopeful Whigg such a Tom-Tell-Truth I do not like Whig I know thou dost not thou likest Flatteries and Leasings better by half Old Tory-Boy Tory. Well but tell me true what Authority have you to assert as you have already that the principal ends of calling Parliaments is for Redressing Grievances that dayly happen Whig For this Consult 36 Edw. 3. c. 10.18 Edw. 3. c. 24.50 Edw. 3. No. 17.13 Hen. 4. No. 9. Tant I cannot think that this same King Alfred that was so Wise a man so great a Schollar a Prosperous King and a Valiant should so humble himself to the Laws Whig Therefore you think like as you are a Tantivee and a Cockscomb For Andrew Horne tells us in his Mirrour of Justice that King Alfred made bold to Hang Judge Darling Seynor Cadwine Cole and fourty Judges more Tant For what Judges Hang other men but do not use themselves to be Hang'd Whig No they do not make a common practice of it though they have often had it and more often deserved it but when they meet with some Just Kings they also meet with their deserts some of them a Halter Tant Fourty Judges do you say did they hang together Whig Yea only for Judging contrary to Law Tant Nay if Judges will Hang men for acting contrary to Law I am of Opinion that they that by their Office their Place their Wisdom their Experience and their Oath should act according to Law I would Halter them my self though it is unseemly for my Coat if such Wretches act contrary to Law Whig When we have an occasion for a Tantivee Hangman we 'l send for you Parson for want of a better Tant I am your tres humble when occasion serves Whig In Edward 3d. time poor Thorp Lord Chief Justice went to Pot in plain English he was Hang'd Tant I am your tres humble when occasion serves Whig In Edward 3d. time poor Thorp Lord Chief Justice went to Pot in plain English he was Hang'd Tant For what For receiving a Bribe of the Embassador Whig No he was not so great a Rogue He was only Hang'd for receiving the Bribe of 100 l in obstruction of Justice Tant Poor Fellow he had hard Fortune I can tell you in History of a man that received fifty times as much in Obstruction of Justice and yet the Gallows did not claim its due Whig Ay ay some men are born with their A upwards but there 's a time for all things and a day of Judgement a coming Tant Ay but when canst tell Whig Yes even when it pleases God Tant And the King you should have said Whig That 's needless for what pleases God must please all the Kings in the World The Wisdom and the Politicks of the wisest men is Foolishness with God What Head had more Brains in it than Strafford That out of Self-Interest and Preservation dislik'd coming to Parliament whom he knew in his Conscience he had Offended and both he and the Archbishop Laud fenc'd off the Parliaments sitting so long till at length they themselves had Judgment without Mercy for Involving the Kingdoms by their Arbitrary Projects and Countenancing and Advancing Popish-Books Popish-Authors Papists and Popishly Inclin'd c. Tant But was it true that Strafford rul'd Ireland with an Army and most of that Army Papists Whig Yes Popery and Arbitrary Government are like Fire and Heat the latter is the necessary consequence of the former Lord of Strafford had 10000. Souldiers of his standing Guards of which 8000. were profest Papists and the other 2000. were Well-affected to the Tory Cause they were True-Blew and whilst he Decreed and Ordered mens Estates and Lives away at the Council Board thereby as it was Articled and Alleadged against him breaking the Kings Oath Which made the poor Earl at last Stile himself the Accursed thing or the Achau that had troubled Israel with the Babilonish Garments of Popery and the Accursed Wedges of Gold by Arbitrary Taxes Decrees Loanes Monopolies False Imprisonments nay Sentencing to Death some as the Lord Mount-Norris and Executing others taking from him his Inheritance of his Mannor and Tymore in the County of Armagh so also Thomas Lord Dillon was outed by the good will and pleasure of this great Lord of and from his Lands in Mago and Rosecommen so also Dame Mary Hibbots in Favour of Thomas Hibbots who shortly after conveyed the same to Sir Robert Meredith to the use of the said Earl of Strafford Tant I commend him he had wit enough to get somewhat and gather to himself which some Tyrants do not Whig I know not what he got over the Devils back was spent under his belly as we say male parta male dilabuntur for he Died poor and in Debt The Curse of God followes the Oppressor and his House so true is that of the Prophet Wo to him that Increaseth that which is not his and to him that ladeth himself with thick-clay shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee c. Wo to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his House that he may set his Nest on high c. Thou hast consulted shame to thy House c. For the stone shall cry out of the wall and the beam out of the timber shall bear witness Wo unto him that buildeth a Town with blood and stablisheth a City by Iniquity Tory Ay Poor Gentleman the Earl of Strafford was made a woful example of an evil Councellor and an Oppressor The sense of his Guilt made him submit to his death the more Patiently Whig Yea he desired to die seem'd weary of his Life a wounded Conscience who can bear Prosperity may a while muzle the Mouth of Conscience but a prospect of Death and Affliction unmuzles the Mastisse Tory. The Earl Confest he had received nothing but Justice and that the death of the bad he ingenuously confess'd with Cicero was the safety of the good that be alive and bid no man trust either in the Favour of his Prince the Friendship and Consanguinity of his Peers much less in his own Wisdom of which he confess'd he had been too Confident saying as once Cardinal Woolsey did Had I strived to obey my God as Faithfully as I sought to Honour my King Fraudulently I had stood and not

that have been the Authors and Causers Tant Of what Of Law and Gospel Whig No of all the Miseries Ruines and Calamities that are now upon us Mr. Speaker This is the Age Mr. Speaker that hath produced and brought forth Achitophels Hammans Woolseyes Empsons and Dedleyes Tricilians and Belknapes Vipers and Monsters of all sorts Tant We use to lay the cause of all our Civil Wars at the doors of the Puritans Roundheads or Whiggs Whig Ay you know no more than just what Oliver 's Fidler and Nat. Thompson discover to you Are you not asham'd to berul'd and taught Ethicks and Politicks from the Pillory the Mass and the Stews poor Tories and Tantivees I blush she you Tant But why do you so often make Astrismes and Remarks of Popular Fury against the Grand Favorites Whig Our own Memories can sufficiently enform us of the Tragical Events that attend the Peoples Odium Indignation and Wrath. Dr. Lamb for no other fault but taken on Suspition for an Intimado and Friend to the Duke of Buckingham was pull'd in pieces by the Mobile and Rable and Verses presently drop'd about the Streets Threatning the like Fate to the Duke This Dystich for one Let Charles and George do what they can The Duke shall Dic like Doctor Lamb. And he that Stab'd the Duke was rather bewail'd and Canoniz'd then Execrated by the Populace what Devils Incarnate did the people prove to the two De Witts in Holland not long ago The examples of Popular Hatred and Revenge I call it not always Justice because Irregular at best are infinite in our own and Foraign Countries What need I tell of the Sicilian Vespers Mastnello's ten days Revenge occasioned by the Gabell's or Excise and yet it was established by Law as Hearth-money amongst us and Excise amongst us and in Holland and other Countries Tant I perceive by the Story that of all men living Favorites Grand Minions whom all men Envy have had the worst luck Whig To go no further back than King Edward 2. how miserably were Gaviston and the two Spencers Tom and Dismembred limb from limb Tory. Ay so was Lord William Scroop Earl of Wiltshire and Lord Treasurer and Sir John Bushy Bagot and the two Green's Thomas and Henry in Richard 2. time Whig And so ended the Duke of Somerset and Suffolk in Henry 6. time Tant These were three Easie Kings Whig But what was Henry 8. then And what Fate had Woolsey Tory. Or the Duke of Somerset and his Brother the Admiral both of them Vncles to the King in Edward 6. Reign Whig Or Duke of Buckingham Earl of Strafford Archbishop Laud in Charles I. time Or Earl of Clarendon in his present Majesties Reign which God long preserve Tant The Earl of Clarendon came off or rather he march'd off if you please and well he could Whig Well then God send me A Moderate Fortune and a quiet Conscience A Soul not Stuff'd with Flattery or Non-sense Nor with much Business too uneasie made Nor of a Curtain-Lecture much afraid But at a Thunder-Bolt stands undismay'd With Brow Unwrinkled Feet without the Gout Let Hero's plod and heave each other out And strive to be mark'd out the Peoples hate Bustling who first shall feel the wonted Fate And Justle for the Bench and Noisy-bar We Shrubs are lower but far Happier I 'le conclude with an old Story Cambyses King of Persia was a man naturally inclin'd to Goodness but Spoil'd by Sycophants and drill'd on to absolute Tyranny by Whores and Sycophants that led him by the Nose and then for Lust he was not only Insatiable but wildly Extravagant scarce any Wench of his own Kingdom would serve his Wanton Squeamish Old Appetite and yet he had of his own Subjects Whores in abundance that were as willing as heart could wish and would have been glad of the Preferment to be a Royal Whore for besides the pleasent sin there was Money and a Title of Honour too perhaps in the Case But nothing would serve Cambyses but to make his own Sister his Miss and not only so but he could have been tempt'd and could find in his heart to make her his Wife if he durst for the Laws whereupon to satisfy the Laws and his Lust together he made a Privy-Council-business of it and Consulted them and the Lawyers whether he might no. Marry his Sister lawfully They Answered That they knew no Law which admitted such Marriages but that there was a Prerogative That the Persian Kings might do what they listed Tant The Prerogative then is a very Hapy Commodity these and a help it seems to get such a Commodity as is not allowed to the poor nor to the wicked neither by the Law of God nor man But tell us more concerning our Kings Prerogative in reference to Parliaments Whig Not now however for I understand your drift Mr. Catch-Pole but I am not very ambitious of being a State-Martyr I find cold comfort in it in a Thankless unthinking and degenerate Age besides Mr. Tantivee you can Swear with a Witness and either strain my words or you 'l stretch your Conscience and it is a Cheverill-Conscience already we know it by woful experience Tant But now that Mr. Tory is absent there cannot you know be two stretching Witnesses speak bold Truths and tell us why the Parliament did lay to the charge of King Charles I. the granting Passes under his own Hand to several of his Servants and Knights to go over into Ireland Signed C. R. and serve and assist the Irish Rebels that cut the Protestants Throats and also sent to the Duke of Ormond to make Peace with them and to promise them Toleration and a Deputy of their own chusing who they would and agreed that they should come over for England and what to do tell us some of these Mysteries and How and Why the Pope sent them a Plenary Indulgence for the merit of Butchering the Protestants Whig A Vaunt thou Tempter how darest thou Pittiful Tantivee grow thus Insolent and Troublesome here May I not be Master of mine own nor quiet in my own House for these Beggarly and Cowardly Tories and Tantivees Boy bring me hither my Old Fox again I 'le once more wear it by my side rather than thus be pester'd and disturb'd with Slaves that cannot look in a Glass but they must see in their Foreheads those Scarrs which are the Witnesses as well as Trophyes of Whiggish Valour and his Vnconquered Sword Tory has had a soft place in his Head ever since Tant Dear Whigg Pry'thee a few more of your Perillous Truths Whig Not now I profess you grow Trouble some Have you no more wit Do you know who you speak to Catchpole Begone I say Ha FINIS London Printed for E.
