So that all the Cities and Countries almost in England and Wales, have no Knights nor Citizens to represent them in Parliament, •• t the affairs of the three Kingdoms, are carried by the Burgesses of a few inconsiderable Burroughs, who have excluded the rest of the Members of both Houses.

They have also discharged the Parliament of Scotland, and the Parliament of Ireland, give Laws to impose Taxes on both, which no English Parliament did in former times, nor they now do by Law. By which means, instead of three famous Parliaments of th • se three renowned Kingdoms, we have nothing left, if the will and force of a few men may prevail, but a small piece of the Parliament of England.

Observations upon the afore mentioned List.

• 1. That in former times, and in the Primitive condition of this Parliament, upon the death or disabling of any Member, the Keeper or Speaker gave his Warrant for a new Writ, that no place might want some to represent them.
• 2. Former Ages never knew that way, or rather counted it dishonest, as well as unjust and illegal, for a few, and those not the chief of the House of Commons, to make use of a mercenary force of inva • e • all and Apostate Englishmen, to possess themselves of the Legislative Power, to the injury of the whole Parliament, (which should consist of above six hundred) and all the people.
• 3. The Major part of the House of Commons, which are excluded by force, are so used, for over-voting the House from the minor part; Whereas till this Iron Age (though been for dissenting in the House) never any that attended, were hindered from sitting, or excluded from free voting.
• 4. If those few who sit, had convenient modesty, they would not think the wisdom of these three Kingdoms were under their Hoods, when there are so many and wise Personages in them nor Judge their own forcible exclusion by the Arm •• min • ions, when so few, when themselves by force seclude and eject so many.
