Answers to the reasons of the Commons, which they gave the Lords (at a conference July 25. 1648.) against a treaty. 2. Reasons why the Commons, rather then the Lords, are against a treaty. 3. Reasons to shew that it is safer and better, even for the Commons, to adventure on a treaty, then to hazard a new warre.		1648 (1648)	Wing C5574; Thomason E457_3; ESTC R204960	11,269	15

before_o a_o treaty_n the_o reason_n as_o collect_v and_o print_v by_o a_o especial_a order_n of_o parliament_n be_v these_o 1._o reason_n if_o these_o bill_n be_v not_o pass_v before_o the_o treaty_n the_o parliament_n will_v leave_v their_o friend_n in_o such_o a_o condition_n as_o they_o can_v be_v able_a to_o defend_v they_o who_o have_v stand_v for_o they_o answer_n this_o reason_n look_v

2._o they_o say_v of_o their_o friend_n in_o general_a not_o qualify_a they_o by_o just_a honest_a good_a but_o be_v they_o what_o they_o will_v if_o their_o friend_n who_o have_v stand_v to_o they_o

be_v unjust_a what_o need_v you_o fear_v but_o that_o they_o shall_v be_v recall_v 2._o nay_o what_o need_v you_o fear_v when_o as_o the_o king_n have_v promise_v so_o a_o peace_n may_v be_v settle_v that_o be_v they_o never_o so_o just_a and_o lawful_a on_o his_o part_n yet_o for_o your_o sake_n he_o will_v recall_v they_o 3._o but_o still_o see_v that_o as_o the_o other_o two_o reason_n of_o a_o

advantage_n to_o the_o king_n as_o they_o say_v against_o themselves_o 4._o reason_n if_o the_o three_o bill_n be_v not_o pass_v they_o give_v opportunity_n to_o have_v the_o power_n of_o parliament_n question_v for_o all_o the_o blood_n spill_v in_o the_o late_a war_n which_o never_o be_v question_v by_o any_o of_o his_o majesty_n predecessor_n answer_n 1._o that_o the_o parliament_n i_o the_o king_n &_o the_o two_o house_n have_v power_n to_o make_v war_n wherein_o blood_n may_v be_v and_o be_v spill_v be_v out_o of_o question_n 2._o but_o grant_v that_o the_o two_o house_n have_v without_o just_a power_n spill_v so_o much_o blood_n must_v we_o want_v peace_n rather_o than_o they_o shall_v hear_v of_o it_o though_o without_o punishment_n 3._o or_o rather_o than_o the_o two_o

negative_a of_o fact_n can_v be_v prove_v especial_o in_o such_o a_o case_n and_o after_o so_o great_a revolution_n of_o year_n and_o time_n therefore_o have_v the_o reasoner_n say_v the_o like_a have_v not_o for_o aught_o we_o read_v or_o find_v it_o have_v be_v more_o modest_a and_o more_o worthy_a of_o belief_n then_o to_o say_v the_o like_a never_o be_v 5_o but_o if_o the_o like_v never_o be_v the_o reason_n may_v be_v because_o the_o like_a rebellion_n or_o war_n never_o be_v in_o the_o time_n of_o any_o his_o majesty_n predecessor_n there_o have_v be_v war_n in_o the_o time_n of_o his_o majesty_n predecessor_n between_o party_n and_o party_n who_o shall_v be_v the_o right_a heir_n and_o so_o shall_v enjoy_v the_o crown_n or_o between_o the_o king_n and_o baron_n for_o obtain_v and_o uphold_v each_o other_o right_n and_o betwixt_o the_o king_n and_o the_o rascality_n of_o the_o people_n when_o those_o the_o tail_n will_v usurp_v a_o power_n over_o the_o king_n the_o head_n but_o the_o like_a war_n as_o this_o when_o after_o the_o king_n have_v redress_v all_o their_o just_a grievance_n by_o so_o many_o act_n confirm_v when_o after_o he_o have_v give_v they_o more_o of_o his_o own_o just_a right_n

from_o his_o crown_n than_o ever_o king_n in_o this_o land_n before_o he_o do_v when_o after_o promise_n of_o grant_v more_o and_o more_o than_o they_o shall_v in_o justice_n and_o reason_n demand_v yet_o after_o all_o this_o to_o prosecute_v he_o with_o war_n to_o defame_v he_o to_o the_o world_n by_o black_a and_o false_a aspersion_n to_o draw_v away_o the_o affection_n of_o the_o people_n to_o imprison_v and_o hazard_v his_o sacred_a person_n to_o the_o malice_n or_o devilish_a rage_n of_o base_a and_o unworthy_a people_n i_o say_v and_o it_o appear_v by_o our_o best_a history_n that_o the_o like_a of_o this_o be_v never_o know_v in_o the_o reign_v of_o any_o his_o majesty_n predecessor_n and_o therefore_o in_o this_o respect_n well_o it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o the_o like_o spill_v ●f_a blood_n be_v never_o question_v by_o any_o of_o his_o majesty_n predecessor_n and_o then_o from_o hence_o no_o more_o in_o reason_n can_v be_v conclude_v than_o this_o or_o the_o like_a that_o this_o act_n of_o they_o be_v unparalleled_a it_o may_v with_o justice_n be_v question_v though_o not_o to_o punish_v the_o present_a actor_n yet_o to_o keep_v aftertime_n from_o act_v the_o like_a but_o out_o of_o question_n it_o stand_v not_o with_o reason_n that_o rather_o than_o it_o shall_v be_v question_v how_o or_o by_o who_o so_o much_o blood_n have_v be_v spill_v that_o therefore_o we_o shall_v have_v no_o treaty_n or_o peace_n but_o go_v on_o and_o engage_v in_o a_o war_n to_o the_o shed_n of_o flood_n of_o innocent_a and_o guiltless_a blood_n 1._o and_o by_o the_o
