instit 110. 4 pars p. 49. that is the sence of the word Parler in the French Tongue The Writ whereby the two Houses are assembled which is called the Writ of Summons of Parliament at all times and at this Parliament used and which is the warrant ground and foundation of their meeting is for the Lords of the House of Peeres the Iudges and Kings Counsell to consult and treate with the King that is the Parler of great concernments touching 〈◊〉 the King secondly the defence of his Kingdome thirdly the defence of the Church of England It cannot be a Parliament that will not parle with their King but keepe him in prison and not suffer him to come to them and parle and therefore the Law and sense and reason informing every man that is no manner of parliament the King with whom they should parle being so restrained that they will not parle with him the army hath no manner of security by this Ordinance for their indemnification refers to that which is not in being untill the King be at Liberty 7. It is more than probable that their Iudges before the last Circuite had instructions to the effect of this Ordinance The Common souldiers second Apology 6. Grievances of the Army published 15. May last Three grievances of Col. Riches Regiment but they the Iudges making conscience of their Oath layd aside the said instructions and ought and may and it is believed will no more regard this Ordinance than the said instructions What was done in the last circuit the army well knowes touching many of their fellow Souldiers 8. The H●uses in their first proposition to his Majesty for a safe and well-grounded peace sent to Newcastle to desire a pardon from his Majesty for themselves they who desire a pardon cannot granr a pardon comōn reason dictates this to every man and therefore that the army should accept an indemnity for them who seek it for themselves or should conceive it of any manner of force is a fancy so that no man in the whole army but may apprehend that it is vain and a meer delusion 9. His Majesty by his gracious message of the 12 of May last hath offered an Act of Oblivion and a generall pardon to all his people this done the Law doth indemnifie the Army without all manner of scruple for any thing that hath been done for it is an Act of Parl. when the King two houses concur and bindes all men I here is no safety by the Ordinance there is safety by an Act of Parliament and will not reasonable men preferre that which is safe before that which is unsafe 10. His Majesty by his said Letter agrees to pay the arrears of the army J am sure that it is a publick debt and the chiefest and the first that by the two Houses should be paid and before any dividend or gratuities bestowed among themselves for their blood limbs and lives have put and kept the both Houses at rest in the power they have So by this concurrence of his Majesty for your indemnity and for your arreares the Army have not an Ordinance or the Publick Faith but the Law of the Land to make sure unto them their indemnity for all acts and for their arrears and therewith also bring peace to the Land 11. The Kingdom and people generally desire these things To such an army just and reasonable things must not be denyed the things formerly proposed are most just and reasonable you may have them if you will if you will not you render this Kingdom miserable wherein you will have your share of miseries the head and the body are such an incorporation as cannot be disolved without the destruction of both The additionall Ordinance of both Houses passed the 5. of Iune instant for the fuller indemnity of the Army makes nothing at all to the matter 1. For that it extends not to Felony Homicide Burglary Robbery or any other cappitall crime which is the main businesse insisted upon and most concerneth the Souldiers security 12. The both Houses in the said additional Ordinance say Mr. Pyms Speech against tho Earl of Strafford p. 16. Six considerations printed by the command of the House of Commons that it is expedient that all offences be pardoned and put in oblivion pardon and oblivion cannot be understood to be for a time but for ever and they themselves confess that an Ordinance is not binding but pro tempore which with the most advantagious interpretation can be but a reprive or delay of the execution of the Law and therefore that cannot pardon or put in oblivion by their own shewing But the Law of the Land is and so it hath constantly been practised in all times that no persons of what estate soever 27 H. 8. c. 24. have any power to pardon treason felony or any other offences but the King only who hath the sole and whole power to pardon all such crimes whatsoever And in the same manner an Ordinance is of no authority at all to take away the right of private mens actions by any evidence it can give in truth all the evidence that this Ordinance gives is that it records to posterity nothing but a lawlesse and distempered time For remedy thereof I say again it is a certaine truth this Kingdom without an act of Oblivion and a general pardon and the payment of Souldiers-arrears and a meet regard had to tender consciences will unavoydably be ruined Iune 10. 1647.
