Not prevalent surely for the Parliament was soon after Dissolved and the House of Commons having Intimation of their intended Dissolution made what hast they could to perfect a Remonstrance or Declaration against the Duke of Buckingham and concerning Tunnage and Poundage taken by the King since his Fathers death without consent in Parliament and which were never payable they say in their Remonstrance to any of his Majesties Ancestors but only by a special Act of Parliament and ought not to be levyed without such an Act. Tant And did the King go on Collecting and taking Tunnage and Poundage notwithstanding Tory. Yes he said he could not want it and sent them a former Message that if He had not a timely supply He would betake himself to New Councils Tant New Councils what were they Tory. The Commons in their said Remonstrance often with thoughtful Hearts remember the words New-Councils repeating and Repeating them as if they were somewhat against the old Parliamentary Councils and course of this Kingdom and they Order'd every Member of the House to have a Copy of the said Remonstrance for they had not time to Present it to his Gracious Majesty but were Dissolv'd though the Lords also prepared a Petition to stay the Kings purpose in Dissolving the Parliament sending Viscount Mandevil Earl of Manchester Lord President of his Majesties Council the Earls of Pembrook Carlisle and Holland to entreat his Majesty to give Audience to the whole House of Peers But the King returned Answer that his Resolution was to hear no motion for that purpose but He would Dissolve the Parliament and he was then as good as his Word for he immediately Dissolved them by Commission under the great Seal Dated at Westminster June 15.2 R. R. Car. 1. 1626. To that purpose And withall Publishes a Declaration in Print concerning the Grounds and Causes which moved his Majesty to Dissolve this as also the former Parliament Dated June 13. 2 Car. 1. two dayes before the Date of the Commission Tant It was the readyer against the time of using it Coleman was as provident Tory. Right And also a Proclamation was published against the said Remonstrance of the Commons commanding all Persons of what Quality soever who have or shall have hereafter any Copyes or Notes of the said Remonstrance forthwith to Burn the same that the Memory thereof might be utterly abolished upon Pain of his Majesties Indignation and high Displeasure Tant Then the Tide did run very high Tory. The King also Published another Proclamation against Preaching or Disputing the Arminian Controversies Pro or Con but the effects of that Proclamation how equally soever intended became the stopping of the Puritan's Mouths and an uncontroul'd Liberty to the Tongues and Pens of the thriving Divinity-men the rising side Mountagues Party And though the Parliament was Dissolv'd so that the Duke of Buckingham for that nearly-reflecting Article the last against him which the King in Honour and by the Bonds of natural Affection and Piety to the Memory of his Deceased Father thought himself obliged to Call him to a publick account for so Daring an Insolence in applying a Plaister to the Kings breast against his Will and without the Advice and contrary to the Opinion of the Sworn Physitians of King James who attributed the Cause of his trouble unto the said Pla●●●●● and a Drink that Buckingham gave him as was Alledged in the Thirteenth Article of the Dukes Impeachment and the said Drink twice given to the King by Buckingham's own Hands and a third time refused by the King who felt great Impairment of his Life and Health complaining of the Drink that the Duke gave him His Physitians telling him to Please him and Comfort him that His second Impairment was from cold taken or some other ordinary Cause No no said his Majesty It is that which I had from Buckingham as more at large much aggravated and insisted upon by Mr. Wandesford who managed the Thirteenth Article of the Impeachment against Buckingham Tant But what

for there he was Stabb'd by Lieutenant Felton Whigg Upon what Provocation Tory. I 'le tell you anon as for the Loans the King Promis'd that this way should not be made a President for the time to come to charge them or their Posterity to the Prejudice of their Just and Ancient Liberties enjoyed under his most Noble Progenitors and Promising them In the Word of a Prince to repay such Summes Tant That is to be understood when he has the Money to repay Whigg Yes but that time never yet came Tant I am not for this kind of Lending whether I will or no and without being able to sue for or recover neither by fair means nor foul neither Principal nor Interest I 'le Swear Whigg Nay Do not Swear I 'le believe the Parson without Searing for Men of thy Coat and Tantivee-principle seldom put out Money to Interest or Use except to the Ale-house or Tavern to wipe out the Chalk and clear old Scores and then run fresh upon Tick again what needs thou to care for the Liberties and Charters of an English-man thou hast no Inheritance to lose nor will thy Heirs fall out or quarrel about the Land thou leavest them thou wilt take a Course for that and make thine own Hands and Guts thy Executors Tory. To the Imposition of Loans was added the Burthen of Billeting of Souldiers return'd from that unsuccesseful and dishonourable Voyage from Cadiz and Moneys to discharge their quarters were for the present to be levyed upon the Countrey to be repay'd out of Summes Collected upon the General Loan Tant Yes when they could catch it Tory. The Companies were scattered here and there all the Kingdom over but that did not much affright men out of their Purses though many Felonies Robberies Rapes and Murders were Committed by the Souldiers and Mariners but they were governed by Martial-law and some were Executed but they Mastered the People disturbed the Peace of Families committed frequent Rapes Burglaries and Robberies Murthers and Barbarous Cruelties which made a general Outcry and Lamentation wherever they came but the Lord Chief Justice Sir Randolph Crew lost his Place for not favouring the Loan and in his room succeeded a right Cavalier Sir Nicholas Hide who yet for his Abilities and Skill in Law might without blushing climb up to the Bench but he could not without great disgust and general Prejudice succeed a man so universally belov'd as was Sir Randolph Crew To advance this Loan one Sibthorp had contriv'd a Tantivee-Sermon Preached by him at Northampton at Lent Assiizes upon Rom. 13.7 called Apostolical Obedience and by all means the Divinity must be in Print or else you 'l say how could it have reacht the Ears of Bishop Laud or made room for Preferment And Archbishop Abbot must License it under his own Hand or take what followes Tant Why sure he would not lose his Archbishoprick for want of Subscribing his Name Tory. He refused to do it though the Court prest him earnestly to do it and his Archbishoprick was Sequestred soon after Whigg Some said it was Bishop Lauds Policy to pick a Quarrel with him if he refused to obey the Kings Commands or expose him to the Indignation of a Parliament if he dared to License such Tantivee-Stuff and illegal and wicked Positions some called them Traiterous Positions he affirmed that the Prince who is the Head and makes his Court and Council it is his Duty to direct and make Laws Eccles 8.3 4. He doth whatsoever pleases him where the word of the the King is there is power and who may say unto him What dost thou And If Princes Command any thing which Subjects may not Perform because 't is against the Laws of God or of Nature or Impossible yet Subjects are bound to undergoe the Punishment without either resisting or railing or reviling and so to yield a Passive Obedience where they cannot exhibit an active one I know no other Case but one of these three wherein a Subject may excuse himself with Passive Obedience but in all other he is bound to Active Obedience sayes Sybthorp Tory. He had forgot the Laws of this Land which all Kings are bound and Sworn to obey for the municipal Laws are not immediately any of those three and Doctor Manwaring he fisht for Preferment with two Sermons to Drill in the Loan though against Law as the King confest in after Statutes as also the Ship-writs Condemn'd by the King 16 Car. 1.14 But those Court-Sermons did Mischief awhile though in Conclusion the Court-Parasites smarted for their sawcy rashness and falshood Manwaring asserting that the King is not bound to observe the Laws of the Realm concerning the Subjects Rights and Liberties Whigg This is just like the Popes Pardon and Absolving King Edward of and from the Obligation of his Coronation-Oath Vows and Promises Tory. Manwaring also asserted that those who refused to pay the Loan Offended against the Law of God Tant Did he find that in the Bible Tory. And that the Authority of Parliament is not necessary for the raising of Aids and Subsidies Whigg 'T is a wonder to me that the Parliament let him escape after this what sets a Kingdom in a flame but these Incendiaries that do not or will not know the Constitution of this Kingdom and Common-wealth An equal Bridle to curb Tyranny and Arbitrary Sway on the one hand and Anarchy and Confusion on the other Tory. Ay our Laws are good enough none better Whigg Then what Traytors and Villains are they that dare debauch the fundamental Constitutions and Laws Tory. It was the way to Preferment Whigg The way to the Gallowes was it not better a hundred thousand such Sycophants were Hang'd than a good King and his Laws Betray'd and the Kingdom Involv'd in blood through their sly Tantivee-leasings and Insinuations Tory. Bishop Laud was the Man and all in all with the King all Preferments in Church and State he annuated or He and Buckingham though they so mischeivously to the King and State countenanc't the Loan so contrary to the grants of the great Charter and the Subjects Liberties and Properties which the King was bound by Oath and Duty to Preserve and Observe and was ready to do it of his own Benignity and Goodness but those Court-Parasites ruin'd all at length and themselves too Popery and Arbitrary Sway are Twins alwayes coupled the Queen had great Influence upon the Favourites either to make or marre them and they knew it as well and the Jesuits had too much Influence over her what by fair means what by foul but the King was angry when he heard they made her for Penance walk bare-foot to Tyburn Whigg The Jesuits Ay they are pretty Creatures for Princes to be Slaves unto and to become their Vassals and Instruments they have got the two Reyns into their own hands that guide the silly World namely Hope and Fear whom the hopes of Heaven cannot allure to their purposes the

said the Duke in his own Justification and Defence in the Star-Chamber Tory. He denyed it and examined divers Witnesses about the matter Tant And what then Tory. Nothing more the Cause never came to Judicial Hearing in that Court Tant Then let us hear no more of it I am sick of it my self I never heard so much before Go on Tory. After the Parliament was Dissolv'd and things well husht the Privy Council Order'd all Customs to be paid and the Refusers Punisht by Fines Imprisonment this was deem'd one New-council and Loans another Tant Loans prythee Tory what were they Tory. The King sent to the Rich a Letter beginning Trusty and Well-beloved c. under the Privy Seal requiring him or them to send him within twelve dayes so much Money as for Example in the West-riding in York-shire to Sir Thomas Wentworth 20 l Sir Francis Fuljam 20 l Sir Edward Osburn 30 l Godfrey Copley Esquire 15 l promising in the Name of the Kings Majesty his Heirs and Successors to repay the Money so lent Tant Ay when le ts hear that Tory. Within eighteen Months Tant And was the Money Repayed Tory. Pish that 's a silly question then of the City of London the King bid them lend him a hundred thousand pound Tant Well said a few such Summs from Towns or Cities would do the business but did they lend the Money Tory. No the City desir'd to be excused Tant And what then Tory. Then the Privy-Councel required them all excuses set apart to return a Direct and speedy Answer to his Gracious Majesty or in default thereof that his Majesty may frame his Councils as appertaineth to a King in such extream and Important occasions Tant And were they not afraid and apprehensive of the Innuendo Tory. The Commands rested not here for they also commanded the City to Equippe twenty of their best Ships in the River with all manner of Tackle Sea-stores and Ammunition men and Victuals for three Months Tant And did they do it Tory. They grumbled at it saying it was without President as did also the Deputy-Lieutenants and Justices of Peace at Dorset having received the Kings Commands for setting forth Ships from Pool Weymouth and Lime but the Council checkt them for daring to dispute Orders instead of obeying them and whereas they mention presidents they might know that the presidents of former times were Obedience not Direction Whigg It would puzzle a good Historian to find presidents of Obedience in England to Arbitrary-sway and Orders of Privy-Council for Impositions without Law to back them Tory. How Did not stout King Edward 1. Command Roger Bigot Earl of Norfolk and Lord Marshal of England and several other Lords to go to the Wars in Gascoygne in France which they refusing except the King himself went also in Person But the King threatned then to take away their Lands and their Lives saying to the Lord Marshal and Swearing By God Sir Earl you shall either Go or Hang. Whigg Ay but the Earl answered the King at the same moment I Swear by the same Oath I will neither Go nor Hang and so without leave went out of the Room and departed and shortly after he and Humphrey Bohun Earl of Hereford and other Lords and Noble-men Assembled and other their Friends to the number of thirty Bannerets one thousand five hundred men at Arms well appointed and stood upon their Guard but the King Dissembled his Resentments at that time being about to go to Flanders where he spent much Money and for recruit Summons a Parliament to meet at York promising from thenceforth never to charge his Subjects otherwise than by their Consents in Parliament and also to Pardon all such as had denyed to attend him in this Journey Tant And did they trust the Kings word Tory. Yes but he broke it and all his other Oaths and Confirmations of the Peoples Charters made in Parliament two Years after having obtained and bought a Pardon for so doing as aforesaid of his Holiness nay he begun to play his Arbitrary Pranks long before that for in 8 Edw. 1. he sent out his Writ of Quo Warranto a fine Engine to get Money to examine by what Title men held their Lands which upon flaws found in their Charters and pryed into by the Lawyers brought him in much Money 'till John Earl of Warren stopt the Current and stem'd the Tyde for calling upon him to show his Title He drew out an old rusty Sword and said He held his Land by that and by that would hold it to Death and having many Backers it made the King desist from his Project Tant An old rusty Sword dost say that was more than the old Christian Weapons Prayers and Tears Tory. And stopt the Kings Tyranny and lawless Usurpations more than a thousand Petitions Prayers and Tears Tant Still I say Subjects Christian Subjects should use no Weapons but Prayers and Tears Whigg What not against Robbers Thieves and Murderers Tant Not against Magistrates that Rob by Law Whigg Thou talk'st like an Asse every day more than other Rob by Law a Contradiction in terminis if there be Law for it it is not Robery Theft nor Murder and if it be against Law or without Law all violent taking of mens Goods one Subject from another is Theft and Robbery except the Law enjoyn it and may lawfully be Resisted without all doubt in like manner and with such Weapons as the Onset or Assault is made Tant What in an Officer a Commission-Officer Whigg No man can be Authoriz'd to do an ill thing or an illegal thing by any mans Commission much less by the Kings Commission or the Broad-Seal for the King can do no wrong if it be wrong it stands for nothing it is not the Kings act nor the Kings Commission but Surreptitious and punishable Tant And who shall Judge of its Legality or the legality of the Resistance Whigg The Judges and the Law and the Juries Tant Nay then we are well enough yet Whigg If you be well keep you so whil'st you are well but remember Belknap Tresilian c. many Judges have been Hang'd right right and good Reason for corrupt and false Judgment there are they that shall judge the Judges Tant Ay but when at the day of Judgment Whigg Yes yes no more on 't but this Doctrine of resisting with other Weapons than Prayers and Tears Force with Force Violence with Violence in our own just Defence seems so strange to the new Tantivee-men that herein join with the old Error of the Anabaptists condemned in the 37 Article of the Church of England as also the Family of Love who Condemned all Wars as did the Manichees nay the learned Ludovicus Vives saith Arma Christianum Virum tractare nescio an fas sit I know not whether or no it be lawful for a Christian to Fight at all or go to the Wars and wear Weapons Lactantius also was against all Killing right and

King know himself to be ordain'd for his People and not his People for him Wherefore I will never be asham'd to confess it my Principal to be the great Servant of the Common-wealth c. Tory. Ay but we Toryes are not of King James 's mind but quite contrary Whig Right therefore you are most rightly called Tories meer Irish-Bogg-Trotters and Slaves that would be more like than Englishmen because you are Slaves to your Lusts of Avarice and Ambition to gratifie which you will gratifie any other mans Ambition to advance your own and as they say lick up other mens Spitle poor Currs in hopes that others will lick up yours Tory. Ay thouart a Hopeful Whigg such a Tom-Tell-Truth I do not like Whig I know thou dost not thou likest Flatteries and Leasings better by half Old Tory-Boy Tory. Well but tell me true what Authority have you to assert as you have already that the principal ends of calling Parliaments is for Redressing Grievances that dayly happen Whig For this Consult 36 Edw. 3. c. 10.18 Edw. 3. c. 24.50 Edw. 3. No. 17.13 Hen. 4. No. 9. Tant I cannot think that this same King Alfred that was so Wise a man so great a Schollar a Prosperous King and a Valiant should so humble himself to the Laws Whig Therefore you think like as you are a Tantivee and a Cockscomb For Andrew Horne tells us in his Mirrour of Justice that King Alfred made bold to Hang Judge Darling Seynor Cadwine Cole and fourty Judges more Tant For what Judges Hang other men but do not use themselves to be Hang'd Whig No they do not make a common practice of it though they have often had it and more often deserved it but when they meet with some Just Kings they also meet with their deserts some of them a Halter Tant Fourty Judges do you say did they hang together Whig Yea only for Judging contrary to Law Tant Nay if Judges will Hang men for acting contrary to Law I am of Opinion that they that by their Office their Place their Wisdom their Experience and their Oath should act according to Law I would Halter them my self though it is unseemly for my Coat if such Wretches act contrary to Law Whig When we have an occasion for a Tantivee Hangman we 'l send for you Parson for want of a better Tant I am your tres humble when occasion serves Whig In Edward 3d. time poor Thorp Lord Chief Justice went to Pot in plain English he was Hang'd Tant I am your tres humble when occasion serves Whig In Edward 3d. time poor Thorp Lord Chief Justice went to Pot in plain English he was Hang'd Tant For what For receiving a Bribe of the Embassador Whig No he was not so great a Rogue He was only Hang'd for receiving the Bribe of 100 l in obstruction of Justice Tant Poor Fellow he had hard Fortune I can tell you in History of a man that received fifty times as much in Obstruction of Justice and yet the Gallows did not claim its due Whig Ay ay some men are born with their A upwards but there 's a time for all things and a day of Judgement a coming Tant Ay but when canst tell Whig Yes even when it pleases God Tant And the King you should have said Whig That 's needless for what pleases God must please all the Kings in the World The Wisdom and the Politicks of the wisest men is Foolishness with God What Head had more Brains in it than Strafford That out of Self-Interest and Preservation dislik'd coming to Parliament whom he knew in his Conscience he had Offended and both he and the Archbishop Laud fenc'd off the Parliaments sitting so long till at length they themselves had Judgment without Mercy for Involving the Kingdoms by their Arbitrary Projects and Countenancing and Advancing Popish-Books Popish-Authors Papists and Popishly Inclin'd c. Tant But was it true that Strafford rul'd Ireland with an Army and most of that Army Papists Whig Yes Popery and Arbitrary Government are like Fire and Heat the latter is the necessary consequence of the former Lord of Strafford had 10000. Souldiers of his standing Guards of which 8000. were profest Papists and the other 2000. were Well-affected to the Tory Cause they were True-Blew and whilst he Decreed and Ordered mens Estates and Lives away at the Council Board thereby as it was Articled and Alleadged against him breaking the Kings Oath Which made the poor Earl at last Stile himself the Accursed thing or the Achau that had troubled Israel with the Babilonish Garments of Popery and the Accursed Wedges of Gold by Arbitrary Taxes Decrees Loanes Monopolies False Imprisonments nay Sentencing to Death some as the Lord Mount-Norris and Executing others taking from him his Inheritance of his Mannor and Tymore in the County of Armagh so also Thomas Lord Dillon was outed by the good will and pleasure of this great Lord of and from his Lands in Mago and Rosecommen so also Dame Mary Hibbots in Favour of Thomas Hibbots who shortly after conveyed the same to Sir Robert Meredith to the use of the said Earl of Strafford Tant I commend him he had wit enough to get somewhat and gather to himself which some Tyrants do not Whig I know not what he got over the Devils back was spent under his belly as we say male parta male dilabuntur for he Died poor and in Debt The Curse of God followes the Oppressor and his House so true is that of the Prophet Wo to him that Increaseth that which is not his and to him that ladeth himself with thick-clay shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee c. Wo to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his House that he may set his Nest on high c. Thou hast consulted shame to thy House c. For the stone shall cry out of the wall and the beam out of the timber shall bear witness Wo unto him that buildeth a Town with blood and stablisheth a City by Iniquity Tory Ay Poor Gentleman the Earl of Strafford was made a woful example of an evil Councellor and an Oppressor The sense of his Guilt made him submit to his death the more Patiently Whig Yea he desired to die seem'd weary of his Life a wounded Conscience who can bear Prosperity may a while muzle the Mouth of Conscience but a prospect of Death and Affliction unmuzles the Mastisse Tory. The Earl Confest he had received nothing but Justice and that the death of the bad he ingenuously confess'd with Cicero was the safety of the good that be alive and bid no man trust either in the Favour of his Prince the Friendship and Consanguinity of his Peers much less in his own Wisdom of which he confess'd he had been too Confident saying as once Cardinal Woolsey did Had I strived to obey my God as Faithfully as I sought to Honour my King Fraudulently I had stood and not

that have been the Authors and Causers Tant Of what Of Law and Gospel Whig No of all the Miseries Ruines and Calamities that are now upon us Mr. Speaker This is the Age Mr. Speaker that hath produced and brought forth Achitophels Hammans Woolseyes Empsons and Dedleyes Tricilians and Belknapes Vipers and Monsters of all sorts Tant We use to lay the cause of all our Civil Wars at the doors of the Puritans Roundheads or Whiggs Whig Ay you know no more than just what Oliver 's Fidler and Nat. Thompson discover to you Are you not asham'd to berul'd and taught Ethicks and Politicks from the Pillory the Mass and the Stews poor Tories and Tantivees I blush she you Tant But why do you so often make Astrismes and Remarks of Popular Fury against the Grand Favorites Whig Our own Memories can sufficiently enform us of the Tragical Events that attend the Peoples Odium Indignation and Wrath. Dr. Lamb for no other fault but taken on Suspition for an Intimado and Friend to the Duke of Buckingham was pull'd in pieces by the Mobile and Rable and Verses presently drop'd about the Streets Threatning the like Fate to the Duke This Dystich for one Let Charles and George do what they can The Duke shall Dic like Doctor Lamb. And he that Stab'd the Duke was rather bewail'd and Canoniz'd then Execrated by the Populace what Devils Incarnate did the people prove to the two De Witts in Holland not long ago The examples of Popular Hatred and Revenge I call it not always Justice because Irregular at best are infinite in our own and Foraign Countries What need I tell of the Sicilian Vespers Mastnello's ten days Revenge occasioned by the Gabell's or Excise and yet it was established by Law as Hearth-money amongst us and Excise amongst us and in Holland and other Countries Tant I perceive by the Story that of all men living Favorites Grand Minions whom all men Envy have had the worst luck Whig To go no further back than King Edward 2. how miserably were Gaviston and the two Spencers Tom and Dismembred limb from limb Tory. Ay so was Lord William Scroop Earl of Wiltshire and Lord Treasurer and Sir John Bushy Bagot and the two Green's Thomas and Henry in Richard 2. time Whig And so ended the Duke of Somerset and Suffolk in Henry 6. time Tant These were three Easie Kings Whig But what was Henry 8. then And what Fate had Woolsey Tory. Or the Duke of Somerset and his Brother the Admiral both of them Vncles to the King in Edward 6. Reign Whig Or Duke of Buckingham Earl of Strafford Archbishop Laud in Charles I. time Or Earl of Clarendon in his present Majesties Reign which God long preserve Tant The Earl of Clarendon came off or rather he march'd off if you please and well he could Whig Well then God send me A Moderate Fortune and a quiet Conscience A Soul not Stuff'd with Flattery or Non-sense Nor with much Business too uneasie made Nor of a Curtain-Lecture much afraid But at a Thunder-Bolt stands undismay'd With Brow Unwrinkled Feet without the Gout Let Hero's plod and heave each other out And strive to be mark'd out the Peoples hate Bustling who first shall feel the wonted Fate And Justle for the Bench and Noisy-bar We Shrubs are lower but far Happier I 'le conclude with an old Story Cambyses King of Persia was a man naturally inclin'd to Goodness but Spoil'd by Sycophants and drill'd on to absolute Tyranny by Whores and Sycophants that led him by the Nose and then for Lust he was not only Insatiable but wildly Extravagant scarce any Wench of his own Kingdom would serve his Wanton Squeamish Old Appetite and yet he had of his own Subjects Whores in abundance that were as willing as heart could wish and would have been glad of the Preferment to be a Royal Whore for besides the pleasent sin there was Money and a Title of Honour too perhaps in the Case But nothing would serve Cambyses but to make his own Sister his Miss and not only so but he could have been tempt'd and could find in his heart to make her his Wife if he durst for the Laws whereupon to satisfy the Laws and his Lust together he made a Privy-Council-business of it and Consulted them and the Lawyers whether he might no. Marry his Sister lawfully They Answered That they knew no Law which admitted such Marriages but that there was a Prerogative That the Persian Kings might do what they listed Tant The Prerogative then is a very Hapy Commodity these and a help it seems to get such a Commodity as is not allowed to the poor nor to the wicked neither by the Law of God nor man But tell us more concerning our Kings Prerogative in reference to Parliaments Whig Not now however for I understand your drift Mr. Catch-Pole but I am not very ambitious of being a State-Martyr I find cold comfort in it in a Thankless unthinking and degenerate Age besides Mr. Tantivee you can Swear with a Witness and either strain my words or you 'l stretch your Conscience and it is a Cheverill-Conscience already we know it by woful experience Tant But now that Mr. Tory is absent there cannot you know be two stretching Witnesses speak bold Truths and tell us why the Parliament did lay to the charge of King Charles I. the granting Passes under his own Hand to several of his Servants and Knights to go over into Ireland Signed C. R. and serve and assist the Irish Rebels that cut the Protestants Throats and also sent to the Duke of Ormond to make Peace with them and to promise them Toleration and a Deputy of their own chusing who they would and agreed that they should come over for England and what to do tell us some of these Mysteries and How and Why the Pope sent them a Plenary Indulgence for the merit of Butchering the Protestants Whig A Vaunt thou Tempter how darest thou Pittiful Tantivee grow thus Insolent and Troublesome here May I not be Master of mine own nor quiet in my own House for these Beggarly and Cowardly Tories and Tantivees Boy bring me hither my Old Fox again I 'le once more wear it by my side rather than thus be pester'd and disturb'd with Slaves that cannot look in a Glass but they must see in their Foreheads those Scarrs which are the Witnesses as well as Trophyes of Whiggish Valour and his Vnconquered Sword Tory has had a soft place in his Head ever since Tant Dear Whigg Pry'thee a few more of your Perillous Truths Whig Not now I profess you grow Trouble some Have you no more wit Do you know who you speak to Catchpole Begone I say Ha FINIS London Printed for E.

Whigg That Rule holds not always true Tant But if the said Treasurer did Dye a profest Papist that looks not well on our side Tory. Nor can it surely be deny'd and the Commons were so sensible of it that they agreed upon this ensuing Petition to his Majesty concerning Recusants long before Weston grew so high in these words To the Kings most Excellent Majesty YOUR Majesties most Obedient and Loyal Subjects the Commons in this present Parliament Assembled do with great Comfort remember the many Testimonies which your Majesty hath given of your Sincerity and Zeal for the true Religion Established in this Kingdom and in particular your gracious Answer to both Houses of Parliament at Oxford upon their Petition concerning the Causes and Remedies of the Increase of Popery that your Majesty thought fit and would give Order to Remove from all Places of Authority and Government all such Persons as are either Popish Recusants or according to direction of former Acts of State justly to be suspected which was then Presented as a great and principal Cause of that Mischief but not having received so full redress herein as may conduce to the Peace of this Church and safety of this Regal State they hold it their Duty once more to resort to your Sacred Majesty humbly to Inform you that upon Examination they find the Persons underwritten to be either Recusants Papists or justly suspected according to the former Acts of State who now do or since the Siting of the Parliament did remain in places of Government and Authority and Trust in your several Counties of this your Realm of England and Dominion of Wales The Right Honourable Francis Earl of Rutland Lieutenant of the County of Lincoln Rutland Northampton Nottingham and a Commissioner of the Peace and of Oyer and Terminer in the County of York and Justice of Oyer
