WIL PRYNNE neer the Lobby at WESTMINSTER With the several Speeches made in the House by Sir Arthur Haslerigge Sir Henry Vane Master Hungerford and Mr. Ansley and the Answer and Reply of the said Mr. Prynne thereunto by virtue of the power and Summons derived from King CHARLES Together with his Proposals to the People and the Names of the secluded Members cast into HELL by the power of the SWORD and what proceeded thereupon As also Mr. Prynnes demands to the Parliament in the Name of all the Commons of ENGLAND Printed in the Year 1659. ON the seventh of this instant May Mr. Prynne walking to Westminster-Hall where he had not been six daies before meeting with some old secured and secluded Members of Parliament summoned by King Charles his Writ and Authority for these onely ends expressed in all Writs of Summons to the Lords and of elections issued to Sheriffs of Counties for electing Knights Citizens and Burgesses of Parliament and in the Indentures themselves by which they were returned members To confer and treat of certain great and arduous affairs concerning the defence of the King Kingdome and Church of England and to do and consent to those things which shall happen to be therein ordained by Common counsel of the King Lords and Commons touching the aforesaid businesses which Parliament began at Westminster the third day of November 1640. They shewed him a Declaration of the Officers and Counsel of the Army made in such hast and confusion that they mistook the month wherein they made it dating April 6. instead of May 6. published by them that morning which declaration the day before was presented to the speaker of the said Parliament at the Rolls by divers Officers of the Army in the name of Coll Fleetwood and the Counsel of Officers of the Army in presence of many Members of said the Parliament containing their earn●st desire That those Members who continued to sit since the year 1648. untill the twentieth of April 1653. would return to the exercise and discharge of their trust Upon which Mr. PRYN if he could enter the House intended to send for the rest of the Members walking in the Hall to come in unto them and to move that all surviving Members of this Parliament might by joynt consent particularly be sent to and invited to meet and sit in the House at a convenient day before any Vote or Order passed by them then sitting thus suddainly convened without any notice which would be interpreted rather a surprize and un-Parliamentary practise both by the absent Members and the whole Nation than any obliging Parliamentary Vote or Order of the house and more discontent then invite or unite the absent unsummoned Members of that Parliament making the rent greater then before Upon these resolutions alone and none other which Mr. P intended to propose to those then sitting he went to the Lobby door of the Commons House accompanied with Sir George Booth Mr. Arthur Annesley Sir Iohn Evelyn Mr. Th. Gewen Mr. Charles Rich Mr. Mountague Mr. Rich. Knightly Mr. Hungerford and one or two more which being shut to keep out the people crowding on the stairs to get in through whom they could hardly pass Mr. P. knocked twice or thrice but could get no admittance till the door being opened to let out Mr. Nye and some other Ministers Mr P. with Sir George Booth and Mr. Annesley being formost pressed into the Lobby and then the door being shut and bolted again Mr. P. unbolted and held it open till the rest came in where they finding Mr. John and Mr. James Herbert standing in the Lobby accquainted them with their intentions to go then into the House who resolved to go in with them Coming all up to the House door which was shut and kept Guarded as it presently appeared by some Officers of the army Mr. P. required them to open the door to let them in being all Members of the old Parliament who thereupon demanded Whether they had continued sitting in it since 1648. to 1653 M. P. and the rest all answered That being Members of the old Parliament they would give no account to them or any others of their sitting but onely to the House it self whereof they were Members being contrary to the priviledge of Parliament which they and others were obliged inviolably to maintain Upon which demanding their names they said that if they would send in a Note of their names to the house and they ordered them to come in they should be admitted Whereto Mr. P. replyed We yet knew not who were within the House nor whether they were yet sitting nor upon what account they sate nor was it agreeable with the custome or priviledge of Parliament for one Member to send tickets to his fellow-Members for free admission into the House being all equals and having an equal right freely to enter into it at all times as well as they nor was it their duty thus to capitulate with Members but obey their just commands in opening the door Which they still refusing Mr. P. demanded Who and what they were being all strangers to them and by whose authority or order they thus forcibly kept them out They answered they were Officers of the Army and had sufficint authority to keep them out if they had not sate since 1640. till 1653. Mr. P. demanded From whom they had their warrant since they could have none from those within being but newly entred and none else could give them such a warrant nor they within before they heard them and gave good reason for it demanding them to produce their Order if they had any in writing that they mght know by whose authority they were thus forcibly kept out demanding their several names twice or thrice wherewith they refused to acquaint them Upon this M P. told them They doubted of their Authority or Orders thus to seclude them because they were either ashamed or afraid to tell them their names when as th●y told them theirs That they knew not whether they were Officers of the Army or not unless they knew their names so that they might inquire the truth of it or saw their Commissions and if they were Army Officers indeed they had published a printed D●cl in all their names that morning inviting as they conceiv'd all Members they formerly secluded to return sit again in the House to discharge their trusts wherein they professed their former force upon and seclusion of them to be a backsliding and wandring into Unrighteous Paths w●ich they seemingly repented of promising to yield their utmost assistance to them to sit in safety and praying for the presence and blessing of God upon their endeavours And if now within few hours after this Remonstrance published they thus highly and publikely violated it in the view of all there present by returning
