decemb_v 18._o 1649_o robert_n coster_n 1._o whether_o all_o man_n by_o the_o grant_n of_o god_n be_v not_o alike_o free_a and_o all_o to_o enjoy_v the_o earth_n with_o the_o fullness_n thereof_o

and_o maintain_v in_o which_o act_n of_o cruelty_n whether_o those_o devour_a creature_n before_o mention_v have_v not_o be_v chief_a and_o whether_o such_o naked_a shameless_a do_n do_v not_o lie_v

land_n which_o be_v call_v after_o their_o own_o name_n to_o wit_n the_o commons_o for_o to_o dress_v and_o improve_v it_o for_o their_o best_a advantage_n for_o these_o reason_n follow_v without_o pay_v fine_n quitrent_n heriot_n or_o swear_v fealty_n or_o any_o other_o curse_a and_o diabolical_a payment_n whatsoever_o to_o any_o tyrant_n soever_o first_o because_o the_o great_a creator_n of_o all_o thing_n ordain_v that_o the_o earth_n with_o the_o fullness_n thereof_o shall_v be_v a_o common_a treasury_n of_o livelihood_n for_o all_o and_o that_o none_o shall_v lord_n over_o his_o own_o kind_n but_o that_o all_o shall_v love_v as_o brethren_n and_o so_o glorify_v the_o creator_n in_o the_o work_n of_o his_o hand_n second_o because_o the_o common_a people_n of_o england_n have_v these_o six_o or_o seven_o hundred_o year_n be_v shut_v out_o from_o have_v any_o benefit_n of_o the_o earth_n except_o that_o which_o they_o have_v buy_v by_o their_o slavish_a payment_n and_o all_o this_o by_o &_o through_o the_o mean_n of_o that_o illegitimate_a lord_n and_o master_n propriety_n which_o be_v usher_v into_o the_o creation_n by_o those_o two_o grand_a disturber_n of_o our_o peace_n murder_n and_o theft_n and_o therefore_o now_o it_o be_v high_a time_n for_o they_o the_o common_a people_n to_o lay_v hold_n upon_o the_o waste_a land_n that_o so_o they_o may_v receive_v some_o benefit_n free_o and_o may_v no_o long_o live_v in_o a_o starve_a condition_n and_o this_o can_v with_o reason_n be_v deny_v by_o the_o gentry_n and_o clergy_n if_o they_o consider_v what_o cruelty_n they_o have_v act_v towards_o their_o fellow-creature_n these_o many_o year_n who_o have_v a_o privilege_n to_o the_o earth_n equal_a with_o themselves_o three_o because_o there_o be_v no_o statute-law_n in_o the_o nation_n that_o do_v hinder_v the_o common_a people_n from_o seize_v upon_o their_o own_o land_n but_o only_o the_o mercenary_a will_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o where_o there_o be_v no_o law_n there_o be_v no_o transgression_n four_o because_o oppression_n and_o cruelty_n do_v bear_v so_o much_o sway_n in_o the_o nation_n that_o poor_a man_n will_v be_v necessitate_v to_o make_v a_o breach_n of_o the_o law_n of_o the_o nation_n if_o they_o be_v not_o suffer_v to_o labour_v the_o earth_n for_o their_o maintenance_n whether_o it_o will_v not_o prove_v a_o inlet_n to_o liberty_n and_o freedom_n if_o poor_a man_n which_o want_v employment_n and_o other_o which_o work_n for_o little_a wage_n will_v go_v to_o dig_v and_o manure_v the_o commons_o and_o most_o place_n of_o the_o earth_n consider_v effect_n that_o this_o will_v produce_v as_o 1._o if_o man_n will_v do_v as_o aforesaid_a rather_o than_o to_o go_v with_o cap_n in_o hand_n and_o bend_a knee_n to_o gentleman_n and_o farmer_n beg_v and_o entreat_v to_o work_v with_o they_o for_o 8_o d._n or_o 10_o d._n a_o day_n which_o do_v give_v they_o a_o occasion_n to_o tyrannize_v over_o poor_a people_n which_o be_v their_o fellow-creature_n if_o poor_a man_n will_v not_o go_v in_o such_o a_o slavish_a posture_n but_o do_v as_o aforesaid_a then_o rich_a farmer_n will_v be_v weary_a of_o rent_v so_o much_o land_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o manor_n 2._o if_o the_o lord_n of_o manor_n and_o other_o gentleman_n who_o covet_v after_o so_o much_o land_n can_v not_o let_v it_o out_o by_o percell_n but_o must_v be_v constrain_v to_o keep_v it_o in_o their_o own_o hand_n than_o will_v they_o want_v those_o great_a bag_n of_o money_n which_o do_v maintain_v pride_n idleness_n and_o fullness_n of_o bread_n which_o be_v carry_v into_o they_o by_o their_o tenant_n who_o go_v in_o as_o slavish_a a_o posture_n as_o may_v be_v namely_o with_o cap_n in_o hand_n and_o bend_a knee_n crouch_v and_o creep_v from_o corner_n to_o corner_n while_o his_o lord_n rather_o tyrant_n walk_v up_o and_o down_o the_o room_n with_o his_o proud_a look_n and_o with_o great_a swell_a word_n question_n he_o about_o his_o hold_n 3._o if_o the_o lord_n of_o manor_n and_o other_o gentleman_n have_v not_o those_o great_a bag_n of_o money_n bring_v into_o they_o then_o down_o will_v fall_v the_o lordliness_n of_o their_o spirit_n and_o then_o poor_a man_n may_v speak_v to_o they_o then_o there_o may_v be_v a_o acknowledge_v of_o one_o another_o to_o be_v fellow-creature_n for_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o great_a gentleman_n covet_v after_o so_o much_o land_n be_v it_o not_o because_o farmer_n and_o other_o creep_v to_o they_o in_o a_o slavish_a manner_n proffer_v they_o great_a sum_n of_o money_n for_o such_o and_o such_o percell_n of_o it_o which_o do_v give_v they_o a_o occasion_n to_o tyrannize_v over_o their_o fellow_n creature_n which_o they_o call_v their_o inferior_n second_o and_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o farmer_n and_o other_o be_v so_o greedy_a to_o rend_v land_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o manor_n be_v it_o not_o because_o they_o expect_v great_a gain_n and_o because_o poor_a man_n be_v so_o foolish_a and_o slavish_a as_o to_o creep_v to_o they_o for_o employment_n although_o they_o will_v not_o give_v they_o wage_n enough_o to_o maintain_v they_o and_o their_o family_n comfortable_o all_o which_o do_v give_v they_o a_o occasion_n to_o tyrannize_v over_o their_o fellow-creature_n which_o they_o call_v their_o inferior_n all_o which_o consider_v if_o poor_a man_n which_o want_v employment_n and_o other_o which_o work_n for_o little_a wage_n will_v go_v to_o dress_v and_o improve_v the_o common_a and_o waste_a land_n whether_o it_o will_v not_o bring_v down_o the_o prize_n of_o land_n which_o do_v principal_o cause_v all_o manner_n of_o thing_n to_o be_v dear_a whether_o a_o livelihood_n be_v not_o the_o right_a and_o propriety_n of_o every_o man_n look_v in_o the_o first_o query_n whether_o this_o be_v not_o intrude_v into_o by_o those_o which_o do_v impoverish_v their_o fellow-creature_n by_o their_o buy_n and_o sell_v and_o by_o their_o enclose_v and_o appropriate_v the_o earth_n with_o the_o fruit_n thereof_o unto_o themselves_o purposely_o to_o uphold_v their_o lordly_a spirit_n as_o most_o man_n do_v and_o so_o in_o plain_a english_a rob_v and_o steafe_a from_o their_o fellow_n creature_n their_o proper_a right_n and_o inheritance_n whether_o those_o scripture_n which_o say_v love_v thy_o neighbour_n as_o thyself_o and_o do_v unto_o all_o man_n as_o you_o will_v they_o shall_v do_v unto_o you_o and_o he_o that_o have_v this_o world_n good_n and_o see_v his_o brother_n in_o want_n and_o
