  Mr. Denzell Hollis His speech to the Lords concerning the setling of the Queen of Bohemia and her electorall family in their right and inheritance with restitution for their sufferings July 9, 1641.

  But my Lords , There is yet another motive , which hath a strong irresistable operation with us ; and it is the consideration , how much this is of importance to the good of Religion , the advancement of the Protestant party , and the redeeming many soules from their Antichristian bondage ; which hath a double aspect ; and relates to us , not only as we are fellow-members with them of the true Church , which obliges us to a care and defence of them , and gives us an assurance of a reward in heaven : It is madnesse to thinke this State can subsist , if Religion be subverted ; and as great a madnesse to think our Religion can continue here , if we suffer it to be destroyed and eradicated out of our neighbour Countreyes ; which can no more be , ( that is our Religion and this Kingdome be preserved ) when our neighbours of the same Religion and Beliefe with us be consumed , than a Fort can hold out , when all the out-works be taken ; or the heart preserved , when a Gangrene hath seized on the outward parts of the body .

summary:
  And for obstructing of Petitions ( as I am charged in the first Article ) when Petitioners came to the Parliament for redresse of publike grievances ; I have onely delivered my opinion in this House , when seditious Petitions have been read ; and for Major Tuleday , and Nicholas Tew , they affronted the Committee , and Tew endeavoured to raise a Tumult in the Court of Requests , to the danger and disturbance of the Committee , who committed them both untill the next morning , which was approved by this House , yet ( upon my motion in his behalfe ) this House was pleased to bayle Major Tuleday , and shortly after Mr. Tew was discharged . As for that which is laid upon me in the eight Article , concerning the drawing up of the Declaration , it was done in this House , the House allowing it , and it passed both Houses , and therefore it seemes strange to me that any should question that which was made an Act of both Houses of Parliament ; I drew it up indeed ( though very unwilling to take that tax upon me ) as neare as I could according to the sence of the House , in obedience to a generall Call upon me for it , being exceedingly prest and urged to doe it , as you well know .

  I doubt not but your prudence will instruct you to make a far better than any I can offer , however I will say something , if it be but to occasion you to think , the Parliament and People of England have a mighty Affection to your state ; these are the shapes of our Court and our People , in the best manner I can present them to you , and if I mistake not , your State can never in time to come be better secured against shaking , than by the friendship of England . The Union of England and Scotland is a mighty Accession of strength to England , for besides that Scotland was always a dangerous Back-door to England , that mischief is not only removed , but such a Member added , as by reason of Vicinity naturally compounds one entire Body of a great Kingdom ; and this strength would better have appeared if it had at any time since the Union , fallen under a Prince of a Martial Genius , as in time to come it will fall under a Vigorous Administration .

  Observations on the letter written to Sir Thomas Osborn, upon the reading of a book called The present interest of England stated written in a letter to a friend.

summary:
  That King James of happy memory , and his wise and excellent Council , and Favourites , thought therefore not fit to revenge it ; and that it hath since , by several treaties , been buried , and put in Oblivion ; I question whether we ought still to remember it ; but provided , that the constant Trade that the Popish Nations have ( in all ages down to our times ) driven in Massakres , and Cruel Torterings , and that with the applause , and approbation of their chief Bishop and Church , as Italy , Savoy , France and Ireland do witness , may be remembered ; I can be well pleased , that that single Act at Amboina , committed by a few Protestants condemned by the rest , and which is abhorred by the Principles of their Religion , may not be forgotten ; and thereupon the whole designs of the Pamphlet and Letter , each severally considered , I cannot observe , that they differ in any Material Circumstance , but that both aim at the same end , the Honour , Greatness , Prosperity and safety of this Nation , unless the first is too straight laced in the Rules of Honesty and Justice ; believing ( that though Interest rightly understood or mistaken , governs all the world yet ) that that precept of doing to others , as we would have them to do to us , gives no latitude to any Countrey to destroy another , to the end to increase their own Trade , or greatness ; for were it otherwise , nothing could be more for our security against Invasions , and the profit of England , then to destroy in time the French in their Shipping , and thereby in their Maritine Commerce , before they are overgrown in strength and Trade , in both , which from young Interlopers , they are in a short time too much increased , especially in our Newfoundland Fishery , where they have almost eaten us out , to the unspeakable prejudice of the Western Parts ! Secondly , That the Dutch , being so powerful at Sea as they now are , may by ioyning with the French , ( whenever they will agree upon it ) endanger the Conquest of England ; and keeping to themselves the most confiderable parts in it for Trade , being Masters at Sea , provide for their own security against the greatness of France , ( Page 12. )

  But in stead thereof , to our great amazement , all on the suddain , we found our selves plunged into a far greater extremity than ever ; for whereas before Parliaments were only omitted or continued longer than the Law intended , but now by the last Prorogation , the King hath positively Ordered that a Parliament shall not be held within the time appointed by Law : We might instance in many other Laws and Customs of Parliament , by which extraordinary Priviledges are given to the whole Parliament , and to every Member thereof in particular , but that would rather be sit a Volumn than such a Discourse : Wherefore we will shut up this Point with this Conclusion : That if you do admit that the Kings Order , contrary to lavv , must be obeyed , you do admit , that the king and his successors , may hold Parliaments only vvhen they please , and when they do hold them , may make them do vvhat they please ▪ Nay , that they may vvith or vvithout Parliaments make lavvs , or make their particular Orders and Proclamations go for lavvs ▪ raise Money , and do to Parliaments , and all the people of England , to their lives , to their liberties , in to their estates , vvhatsoever either the kings themselves , their ministers , or the vvorst of evil Counsellors can desire .

  Some considerations upon the question, whether the Parliament is dissolved by it's prorogation for 15 months?

summary:
  It is replyed , That there is no stronger law and custom for the 40 dayes , notice than there is against Prorogations above a year , or Parliaments , sine die , and if the kings prerogative can extend to the more essential parts , it may to the circumstance of the time of notice : The king that notwithstanding our old Stautes supported by the Law and Custom of Parliaments , can prorogue a Parliament to a time never so remote , or , sine die , ( that is , to no time ) which is farther distant if he pleaseth , and hath no end but with his Life , can by the same prerogative make the time of notice as short as he please , that being piescribed by no Statute , and only depending upon the law and custom of parliaments , and has been invaded by a more dangerous president than any other point of the law and custom of Parliament has been . 8. help the matter , it would be very hard , that a Preamble of an Act of Parliament should repeal or enervate statutes of that consequence , especially when the enacting part hath not a word to that purpose : but in truth this preamble is far from an allowance , for it is a complaint of Parliaments not being so often holden as in antient time , whereby the Subjects of this Realm are greatly hindred and delayed of Justice .

  A true relation of the unjust accusation of certain French gentlemen (charged with a robbery, of which they were most innocent) and the proceedings upon it, with their tryal and acquittance in the Court of Kings Bench, in Easter term last published by Denzell Lord Holles, partly for a further manifestation of their innocency, (of which, as he is informed, many do yet doubt) and partly for his own vindication, in regard of some passages at that tryal, which seemed very strongly to reflect upon him.

So they went , and he with them , to one Hooper , who had but one neither , and asked 3 s. for his hire , and they proffered half a Crown : He said that his Horse was a Bay , with a white face and four white feet , Hoopers was a little Gray Nag , and that there was a Gray Mare besides hired of another man : And said , That one Capt. Hill had hired his Horse on the Monday before to go to Brickbill , and kept him till the Wednesday : It is to be noted , that this was the Horse , which the Butchers swore , Lampriere had under him when he robbed them , whereas it appears by this mans Testimony , that one Captain Hill had him that day , and full two days after , for he brought him back to London but the Wednesday , the day before these Gentlemen hired him .

Hill had hired his Horse on the Monday before to go to Brickhill , and kept him till the Wednesday : It is to be noted , that this was the Horse , which the Butchers swore , Lampriere had under him when he robbed them , whereas it appears by this mans Testimony , that one Captain Hill had him that day , and full two days after , for he brought him back to London but the Wednesday , the day before these Gentlemen hired him .

summary:
  The Authorities are taken out of the Parlament Rolls , which declare it throughout from the beginning to the end , both in the ancient Records , and in the Modern Journal Books ; They all speak the House of Peers , that is King and Lords , to be the sole Judges both of Persons and Things , Criminal and Civil , and the House of Commons to have no part in it at all . It would be but Labour lost , to heap up more Proofs , and more Presidents for the asserting and maintaining of the Judicature of the House of Peers ; Yet I shall add one more , which is in truth Instar omnium , for it is a Law having the Concurrence of King , Lords , and Commons , not a Constituting-Law , but a Declaratory-Law , ( which is the strongest asserting and confirmation of any Law or Custome already established , that can be ) .

  A letter of a gentleman to his friend, shewing that the bishops are not to be judges in Parliament in cases capital

summary:
  This makes me doubt if the Clergy was of another mind in Richard the Seconds time , and if they could not have been well enough contented to have continued sitting as Judges in all Cases , if the Canon Law had not debarred them , but that being they would make that Protestation , consisting , as I say , of those two parts , both which being so approved of by the Parliament , and there enrolled , became then , and so continue to be , the Law of the Kingdom : For in those times all Laws were so made : Only the substance of the Law was agreed upon in Parliament by King , Lords , and Commons , and entred in the Journal Book ; And the Kings Justices did afterwards draw it up into form , and then publish it to be the known standing Law of the Kingdom . Then for the Common Law , you have Finch in his Book of Law dedicated to King Iames , the first Chapter of the second Book , p. 21. who saith the very same thing in very plain terms : His words are these , Lassemblie de ceux trois Estates c ' est assavoir , Roy , Nobilitie , & Commons , qui sont le Corps del Realme , est appel une Parlement , & lour decree un Act de Parlement , car sans touts troys ( come si soit fait per Roy & Seigniors , mes rien parle del Commons ) nest ascun Act de Parlement , The Assembly of the Three Estates , that is to say , King , Nobles , and Commons , who are the Body of the Realm , is called a Parliament , and their Decree is an Act of Parliament , for without all three ( as if it were done by the King and Lords , and no mention of the Commons ) it is no Act of Parliament .

summary:
  If these or any other , even that malicious and treacherous Lord Savil , can say , that at any time , upon any occasion , I propos'd any thing that look'd towards a self End , the driving of any particular Interest , setting up of any Party , but merely to prevent these fearful Precipices into which the Kingdom is fallen , by the art and practices of these Enemies of Peace , and to attain such a settlement , as all honest moderate Men might have found in it both security and satisfaction : If they can , let them speak ; and if they prove one tittle , I will put my Mouth in the dust , I will bear my punishment , and expect mercy neither from God nor Man ; nay , even in relation to the Army , and those persons who have a long time sought my ruin , if all I desir'd and aim'd at in disbanding that schismatical factious Soldiery , in carrying on the business of the House in opposition to that Party , and even in this last great Treason of levying War against King , Parliament , and Kingdom ( as they stile it ) which was only to do my best endeavour to defend them and my self from a rebellious Army that was marching up for all our destructions , contrary to the Orders of both Houses , against whom it first rebell'd instead of an obedient disbanding ; then cudgel'd them to own it for their Army , forc'd the City into a trouble , and shew of opposition to what it had made the Parliament do ; then took that occasion to march both against it and the Parliament . But how this misery is befallen us , the Kingdom brought so low , and so unworthily , unhappily , inconsiderately deliver'd over into such base and ignoble hands , the Parliament abused , betrayed , and now become in show and in name the Instrument of their Tyranny , but in truth it self made nothing ; and ( if the presence of the right Speaker be so essential to the being and acting of a Parliament , and so necessary , that Sir Edward Cook says in his Institutes the House cannot sit without him ) then is there clearly at this present no Parliament but an Assembly of Men , acted and moved by the Art and Malice of some few sitting among them , by the means of an Army , which those few , those Vipers of the Parliament , that have eaten out the Bowels of their Parent and destroyed her , raised ( that is , abused the Parliament , making them raise it ) under colour of necessity for the preservation of the Parliament and Kingdom ; when in truth it was out of a design to make themselves Masters of both , that neither of them might ever enjoy Peace and Liberty more , to blast our Hopes , nip all the fair Blossoms of Reformation , dash in sunder all our preparations and endeavours for the establishing of a happy Peace ; and so a glorious promising Morning became a Day of darkness , a Day of treading down and perplexity : this , I say , will be worth the enquiry , and perhaps be no difficult thing to discover , and make so plain , that he who runs may read .
