never_o want_v enemy_n so_o the_o devil_n and_o antichrist_n never_o want_v friend_n for_o the_o promotion_n of_o prophannesse_n and_o idolatry_n in_o all_o place_n it_o be_v hard_o to_o say_v whether_o be_v more_o the_o enemy_n of_o truth_n and_o peace_n with_o god_n or_o friend_n of_o error_n and_o peace_n with_o the_o devil_n man_n who_o the_o apostle_n call_v sensual_a fleshly_a and_o

rather_o peace_n with_o man_n and_o wrath_n with_o god_n than_o the_o wrath_n of_o man_n and_o peace_n with_o god_n the_o truth_n of_o all_o which_o do_v appear_v by_o a_o petition_n now_o in_o agitation_n concern_v which_o i_o have_v gather_v some_o plain_a and_o undeniable_a observation_n present_v they_o by_o way_n of_o caution_n unto_o other_o from_o these_o particular_n viz._n 1._o the_o chief_a composer_n of_o this_o petition_n 2._o the_o malignant_a nature_n of_o this_o petition_n 3._o the_o most_o probable_a consequence_n reason_n &_o aim_n of_o this_o petition_n first_o consider_v whether_o the_o chief_a stickler_n and_o fomenter_n thereof_o be_v not_o notorious_o know_v to_o be_v pattentee_n proctor_n delinquent_n malignant_n who_o either_o have_v not_o at_o all_o or_o any_o of_o they_o in_o any_o considerable_a measure_n according_a to_o their_o estate_n assist_v the_o common_a cause_n of_o the_o kingdom_n against_o the_o common_a enemy_n thereof_o who_o pretence_n though_o they_o be_v for_o religion_n and_o law_n and_o the_o aid_n of_o poor_a ireland_n yet_o they_o be_v man_n popish_a athiesticall_a and_o profane_a in_o point_n of_o religion_n some_o whereof_z and_z they_o not_o of_o the_o low_a sort_n have_v most_o profane_o and_o blasphemous_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o those_o who_o be_v desire_v deny_v to_o subscribe_v to_o a_o petition_n for_o peace_n without_o truth_n curse_v truth_n say_v a_o pox_n on_o truth_n give_v we_o peace_n truth_n will_v follow_v and_o let_v we_o have_v peace_n and_o the_o devil_n take_v truth_n etc._n etc._n and_o as_o for_o the_o law_n consider_v whether_o many_o of_o they_o have_v not_o get_v their_o estate_n by_o patent_n a_o lawless_a occupation_n and_o as_o for_o bleed_a ireland_n let_v their_o receipt_n show_v what_o they_o have_v do_v for_o its_o recovery_n which_o will_v amount_v to_o the_o same_o nothing_o as_o the_o sum_n which_o they_o have_v disburse_v for_o distract_a england_n they_o be_v mutinous_a and_o tumultuous_a profess_v in_o the_o presence_n of_o many_o that_o if_o this_o petition_n die_v they_o will_v die_v with_o it_o and_o if_o one_o suffer_v all_o will_v suffer_v with_o such_o like_a mutinous_a expression_n these_o be_v the_o party_n second_o consider_v the_o nature_n of_o this_o petition_n and_o see_v if_o you_o find_v it_o not_o intolerable_o saucy_a and_o peremptory_a against_o the_o parliament_n in_o many_o particular_n first_o in_o tax_v close_o but_o clear_o this_o present_a parliament_n with_o inconsideration_n of_o the_o know_a law_n of_o the_o land_n as_o if_o either_o they_o be_v ignorant_a thereof_o or_o impotent_a thereby_o as_o not_o able_a to_o repeal_v or_o alter_v the_o same_o be_v make_v by_o themselves_o in_o their_o predecessor_n have_v power_n to_o nul_fw-fr the_o same_o at_o their_o pleasure_n second_o consider_v whether_o they_o do_v not_o covert_o but_o unavoidable_o tax_v this_o present_a parliament_n either_o with_o indiscretion_n in_o that_o they_o presume_v to_o be_v wise_a than_o their_o predecessor_n and_o therefore_o desire_v they_o to_o weigh_v the_o care_n and_o judgement_n of_o our_o predecessor_n who_o by_o a_o know_a law_n settle_v and_o preserve_v our_o protestant_a religion_n and_o property_n etc._n etc._n or_o else_o close_o imply_v that_o this_o present_a parliament_n accuse_v former_a parliament_n of_o folly_n and_o unadvisednesse_n in_o that_o they_o have_v confirm_v those_o thing_n that_o must_v now_o be_v reverse_v either_o whereof_o be_v most_o unsufferable_a arrogancy_n and_o nationall_n injury_n three_o consider_v whether_o they_o do_v not_o tax_v this_o present_a parliament_n with_o their_o tender_v unto_o his_o majesty_n such_o proposition_n hitherto_o which_o he_o may_v notwith_o his_o honour_n and_o safety_n of_o the_o kingdom_n accept_v and_o therefore_o they_o desire_v that_o they_o will_v speedy_o tender_v unto_o his_o majesty_n according_a to_o his_o regal_a intimation_n such_o proposition_n for_o accommodation_n as_o he_o may_v with_o honour_n and_o safety_n to_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n accept_v whereas_o it_o be_v most_o evident_o know_v that_o many_o proposition_n have_v be_v tender_v and_o not_o one_o either_o to_o the_o dishonour_n of_o the_o king_n who_o great_a honour_n will_v be_v to_o govern_v his_o kingdom_n by_o the_o advice_n of_o his_o great_a council_n and_o faithful_a parliament_n and_o not_o by_o the_o malignant_a counsel_n of_o papist_n and_o traitor_n and_o outlawed_a delinquent_n neither_o have_v there_o be_v one_o proposition_n tender_v which_o do_v not_o most_o uberous_o carry_v along_o with_o it_o the_o safety_n and_o future_a prosperity_n of_o this_o kingdom_n four_o consider_v whether_o the_o malignity_n of_o this_o petition_n do_v not_o appear_v in_o many_o phrase_n and_o expression_n scatter_v up_o and_o down_o therein_o as_o if_o it_o be_v the_o birth_n of_o the_o same_o womb_n which_o have_v late_o be_v very_o fruitful_a in_o many_o print_a and_o scandalous_a pamphlet_n in_o cast_v reproach_n and_o most_o unworthy_a scandal_n upon_o both_o house_n of_o parliament_n such_o as_o
