who sate continually at the stern to direct those vile Pirates in all their Traytorous designes who delighted more in his imagined honour then in honouring either God or the King who to enrich himself spared no mans life no not the life of a King nor the happiness of three Kingdoms Oh call to your thoughts how much the Lord hateth Covenant breakers oh remember how poor Israel suffered in the time of David for their breach of Covenant though with the Gibeonites and Heathenish people what is it then for a Subject to break Covenant with his lawful King with the great Council of the Nation and afterwards to murther him and some of the Parliament whom he had sworn to preserve Oh remember blood requireth blood the very Gibeonits disdained David's mony in satisfaction Let them that are in authority remember this it was the seven sons of Saul whose blood must make an expiation 14. Quere Whether if he had been Hono pietatis as he would be reputed or so honest as he was politick ambitious and covetous as on the very day of the expulsion of the Secluded Members to have endeavoured their readmission and when he found that he could not prevaile he knowing the desperate design they were about had be then like a noble brave spirited Senator declared to the Rump his sence and interpretation of their rebellious actings and resolutions and then to have left the Chair consequently to have protested to the Nations against the treasonable and illegal proceedings of those wicked Members might not in all probability with Gods mercy have intercepted the abominable Acts of murthering the King and others by striking terrour to the hearts of those impudent Conspirators it be evident in all Histories both Divine and Morall both ancient and modern how wicked Armies though Potent have been put to flight and the most insolent Traytors examinated by weak means 15. Quere Whether the sin of this wrecth doth not exceed the sin of the Jewes for though they poor creatures murthered their King yet they knew him not to be their King their Messiah neither had Pontius Pilate or any of the Jewes swore to preserve him nor did the unhappy Jewes commit that murther intending thereby to enrich themselves or to get four hundred thousand pounds as this wicked man hath done as plainly appeareth in the Register besides six and twenty thousand pound a year Revenue All which duely considered he is a most inhumane creature addicted wholly to his own lust Wherefore dear Countrymen let us humbly and speedily present our Petitions to the Parliament for Justice against him lest our neglects provoke the Lord who is a just Judge and will require due satisfaction for innocent blood The EPILOGUE For the Bloody TRAYTOR W. L. Sp. THou bloody man haddest thou remembred to make use of that saying though from the mouth of a Heathen which will rise up against thee at the latter day to thy confusion if thou repentest not Non solum nobis nati sumus partem Patria thou wouldest not have occasioned so much of thy own Countrey-mens blood blood to be spilt to satisfie thy insatiate desire enriching thy self and glorying in thy Countreys ruin Or hadst thou made use of that of holy Gregory Homo ad contemplandum creatorem suam creatus est You could not possibly then have beat your mind so to commit sacriledge blasphemy and murther or that of Zanchius Noâ—â—ndi creati sumus ad neminem sadâ—â—dâ—â— Oh thou thou wouldst never have implyed thy hands to do any mischief much lesse to bathe thy treacherous hands in thy Kings and fellow Subjects blood For which destruction attends thy Body and Soul eternally without thou heartily repent FINIS
