A91291 A summary collection of the principal fundamental rights, liberties, proprieties of all English freemen; both in their persons, estates, and elections; and of the memorable votes, resolutions, and Acts of Parliament, for their vindication and corroboration, in the late Parliaments of 3 & 17 of King Charles; collected out of their Journals, and printed Ordinances. Most necessary to be known, considered, re-established (in this present juncture of publick affairs) with all possible old and new securities; against past, present, and future publick violations, under-minings, by force or fraud, for the much-desired healing of the manifold large mortal wounds in these chief vital parts, and repairing the various destructive subversive breaches in these prime foundations of our English state fabrick; without which no effectual present or future healing, union, peace, or settlement can possibly be expected, or established in our distracted nations. / By William Prynne of Swainswick Esq; a bencher of Lincolns Inne. Prynne, William, 1600-1669. 1656 (1656) Wing P4095; Thomason E892_3; ESTC R206517 46,699 73

both_o by_o the_o parliament_n and_o army_n and_o so_o many_o year_n bloody_a war_n for_o defence_n of_o the_o right_n and_o privilege_n of_o parliament_n i_o shall_v therefore_o close_o up_o this_o

the_o freedom_n of_o this_o nation_n upon_o the_o freedom_n of_o parliament_n we_o have_v good_a cause_n to_o believe_v that_o the_o people_n of_o england_n know_v that_o their_o life_n and_o
