AS in Nature there is hardly a Poyson growing any where but in the same place there groweth an Antidote against it so in Nations seldome do the loose principles of Licentiousness Rebellion and Disorder prevail so universally but that in the same Nation the more excellent principles of Reason Religion Laws and Allegiance bear up against them Various have been the shapes and pretences under which the Lusts of men for all the disorders in the world are nothing else but Lust casting off the restraint God hath laid upon it by Government have indeavoured since God set up Government to keep men civil and quiet in this world as he did Religion to prepare them for another world to shake and invalidate the obligations both of Religion and Government in all places of the world for most pretences last but an Age in which time they are looked through exploded abhorred and must be shifted How men willing to live at the highest freedom of a loose Nature have in this Nation endeavoured in several generations to overthrow all the Checks Restraints Rules and Disciplines of Religion is not so properly the business of this place as it is commonly the subject of every discourse elswhere The pretentions and appearances under which those that have made a pretty good shift to suppress all those Principles of Honesty Sobriety and Obedience that Religion curbed them withal within
stood by that that was a point worth his consideration The Earles Reply That he expected some proof to evidence the two first particulars but he hears of none For the following words he confessed probably they might escape the Door of his Lips nor did he think it much amiss considering the present posture to call that Faction Rebels As for the last words objected against him in that Article he said that being in conference with some of the Londoners there came to his hands at that present a Letter from the Earl of Lichester then in Paris wherein were the Gazettes enclosed relating that the Cardinal had given order to â—evy Money by Souldiers This he onely told the Lord Cottington standing by but he made not the least Application thereof to the English affairs 21. That being Lieutenant-General of the Northern Forces against the Scots 1639. he Imposed 6d per diem on the Inhabitants of York-shire for the maintenance of Trained Bands by his own Authority threatning them that refused with imprisonment and other penalties little below those inflicted for High-Treason The Earles Reply That his Majâ—sty coming to York it was thought necessary in regard the Enemy was upon the Borders to keep the Trained-bands on foot for the defence of the Country and therefore the King directed him to Write to the Free-holders in York-shire to declare what they would do for their own defence that they freely offered a months pay nor did any man grudge against it Again it was twice propounded to the great Council of Peâ—rs at York that the King approved it as a just and necessary act and none of the Council contradicted it which he conceived seemed a tacit allowance of it That though his Majesty had not given him special Order therein nor the Gentry had desired it yet he conceived he had power enough to Impose that Tax by Vertue of his Commission But he never said that the Refusers should he guilty of little less than High-â—reason which being proved by Sir William Ingram he was but a single Testimony and one who had formerly mistaken himself in what he had deposed 22. That he being Lieutenant-General against the Scots suffered New-Castle to be Lost to them with design to incense the English against the Scots And that he ordered my Lord Conway to Fight them upon disadvantage the said Lord having satisfied him that his Forces were not equal to the Scots out of a malicious desire to Engage the two Kingdomes in a National and Bloudy War The Earles Reply That he admired how in the third Article he being charged as an Incendiary against the Scots is now in this Article made their Confederate by Betraying New-Castle into their hands But to answer more particularly he said That there were at New-Castle the 24. of August ten or twelve thousand Foot and two thousand Horse under the Command of the Lord Conway and Sir Jacob Ashley and that Sir Jacob had writ to him concerning the Town of New-castle that it was Fortified which also was under his particular Care and for the passage over the River of Tine His Majesty sent special direction to the Lord Conway to secure it and therefore that Lord is more as he conceives responsible for that miscarriage than himself These replies were so satisfactory in themselves and so nobly managed by him that they exceeded the expectation of the Earles Friends and defeated that of his Enemies Insomuch that finding both the number and the weight of their former Articles ineffectual their multitude being not as they designed able to hide their weakness they would needs force him the next day notwithstanding a â—it of the Stone that made it as much as his life was worth to stir abroad which though testified by the Leiutenant of the Tower they measuring the Earles great spirit that scorned to owe his brave Life to ignoble Acts by their own mean one believed not and when convinced aiming at his ruin rather than tryal regarded not to answer others I mean those obscure Notes that Sir Henry Vane whose covetousness having as great a mind to a part of the Earles Estate as others ambition had to the snips of his Power betrayed his trust and honour to satisfie his malice took under his Hat at Council-board May 5. 1040. the day the last Parliament was Dissolved treacherously laid up in his Closet maliciously and by his own Son Harry who must be pretended forsooth as false to the Father as ever the Father had been to his Master and when sent to one Closet finding a little Key there to have ransacked another where these Notes lay conveyed to Master Pym slyly by Master Pym and the Commons who would needs have a conference with the Lords that very afternoon urged so vehemently that the Lords who thought it reasonable that the Earles Evidence might be heard as well as his Adversaries were bassled to a compliance with the Commons in this Vote that the Earl should appear April 13th as he did And when these Notes were Read viz.

same month in the same year at Naseby-field in the County of Northampton At which several times and places or most of them and at many other places in this Land at several other times within the years afore-mentioned And in the year of our Lord one thousand six hundred forty and six He the said Charles Stuart hath caused and procured many thousands of the Free-people of the Nation to be slain and by Divisions Parties and Insurrections within this Land by Invasions from Forraign Parts endeavoured and procured by him and by many other evil ways and means He the said Charles Stuart hath not only

Nation in this present year one thousand six hundred forty and eight in the Counties of Kent Essex Surrey Sussex Middlesex and many other Counties and Places in England and Wales and also by Sea And particularly He the said Charles Stuart hath for that purpose given Commission to his Son the Prince and others whereby besides multitudes of other persons many such as were by the Parliament intrusted and imployed for the safety of the Nation being by Him or his Agents corrupted to the betraying of their Trust and revolting from the Parliament have had Entertainment and Commission for the continuing and renewing War and Hostility against the said Parliament and People as aforesaid By which cruel and unnatural wars by Him the said Charles Stuart Levyed Continued and Renewed as aforesaid
