  A short survey of our Julian English yeare with the definition, deviation, dimension and manner of reformation.

summary:
  for the seasons in 5686. years past to this year 1656. have anticipated 42 days and ten hours from Caesars reformation twelve daies and sixteen hours ; since Christs Incarnation twelve daies and eight hours , as all Artists by exact calculation shal find true ; because in every forty five years there result eight hours compleat , and in a hundred thirty four years , one entire day , as is fore-shewed . II. That the twelve last daies in every moneth since Christs time , usurp the room of the twelve first in the next ; so about 2500 years hence ( if the World shall so long last ) every one wil wholly possess the place of his next neighbour ; which is a Turkish Solaecisme in Astronomie , whose Summer moneths in very few years take up their Hybernals in the Winter rooms ; and contrarily , not caring in what seasons they celebrate their Pseudo-Festivals .

  To the whole English army, and to every particular member thereof, both officers and souldiers, whether of England, Scotland, or Ireland; these are for them to read, and consider, as wholesome animadversions in this day of distractions / E. Burrough.

summary:
  FRIENDS , WHere is the Good Old Cause now ? and what is become of it ? in whose hands doth it lie ? and where are they that truly contend for it ? as for you , have not you foregone it ? and long since trodden it under foot , and despised it , and only talked of it , but not rightly prosecuted it ; but your own Cause , and not Gods have you served , what do you say ? is the Good Old Cause ceased , and clean perished ? or are you ceased to contend for it , through your unfaithfulness ? or is your strength betrayed , that you cannot plead for it as formerly ? the people of these Nations thinks that you have buried the Good Old Cause , and quite forgotten it now ; for was not the Good Old Cause for liberty , both in Spiritualls and Temporalls ? was it not the ju●● Freedom of all People , that was once contended for , and all Tyranny , and Oppression , and unju●t Lawes once contended against ? and you have seemed once to be the asserters of this , and sometimes the vindicators of it , but what is become of it now ? is your zeal perished ? and where are the faithful contenders for it , seeing so many of the people of the Lord , and of the free people of this Nation have been , and are at this day grievous sufterers under the Opressions and Cruelties of men , and under unjust men , and unjust Lawes ? can you be Ignorant how many hundreds in these Nations have wofully suffered some Imprisonment , others whipping , and others banishment , and others have suffered until death , for Conscience take , and without the breach of any just Law ? and many great Oppressions are this day abounding in the Nations ; and was not the Good Old Cause once laid down , to be against all these things ? but because of your Treachery and unfaithfulnesse , and your forgetting to prosecute the Good Old Cause , therefore have these things come to passe , and the Nations lies like a wildernesse under groaning Oppressions , and in Confusion , and unsettled in the way of peace , which is as a weight and burden of Iniquity in the fight of the Lord ; and the guilt of those unjust sufferings , and of the present oppressions and distractions lies upon you principally , even as much as upon any others ; for time and power hath been in your hands to have freed the Nations from bondage , but you have long turned up and down , and about , for earthly Honor and self-interests ; serving mens pleasure , and have not rightly followed the Good Old Cause , but the rather forgotten it , and neglected it , and have bowed under the Lu●●s and Ambition of men , and served mens private ends , and not the Nations general good ; sometimes appearing for one thing and way , and sometimes for another ; and changing your way , and have been unstable and unconstant in good things , so that the Nation and the good People in it , cannot any longer trust you , for there is no considence to be placed in you ; many had good hopes that some good thing might have been effected by you , when power and time was in your hands ; but you have betrayed such hopes , and are ( as ) quite changed from the Good Old Cause ; and the Nation can judge you now , to be little better then a Mercinary Army , that will do any thing for money , and be led about according to the wills of men ; but how long will it be e're you consider of your selves ? and how woeful you are fallen , from what you once seemed to be ; and when will you remember the Good Old Cause ? but alas , you are divided and broken in pieces , some for one thing , and some for another ; some for an Old Parliament , and some for a New ; and some for a Protector , like as if the names and titles of men and Governments , were sufficient to redeem a Nation from oppressions and miseries ; and so being divided about self-interests , and names , and for persons , you have all left the thing it self Worthy to be contended for , and the Good Old Cause is lost : and now you are for men , and you turn about at their pleasure , and are about things of no value in respect of the Good Old Cause once laid down by you ; ( to wit ) even the perfect freedome of the Nations ; and you are under a great reproach at this day among good men , and your glory is fallen in the sight of the Nations , and your terror lost , and your shame appears : And because of your hypocrisie and unfaithfulness , the Lord hath reproved you , and suffered a check to your ambition , and brought you under the reproof of hard-hearted men : Is there no hope of your return to the Good Old Cause ? When will you begin to appear for things for perfect freedome and liberty , and cease to be for names and men , while the good Cause it self is lost , and the interest of oppression seems to be promoted : Therefore consider , Oh! what an excellent thing would it be , if you would sincerely return to the Good Old Cause : and if you could agree among your selves , few or many of you , to state the Good Old Cause once more in clear and plain principles , and positions ; and if you could lay down right things worthy to be contended for ; and upon which you could engage your lives , ( viz. ) even the perfect liberty of all people , and then say here is the Good Old Cause , and here is the freedome of the Nations laid down , and perfect liberty asserted unto all people whatsoever , both as men and as Christians ; and these things we will vindicate , these things we will have brought to pass , and for these things we will only stand , that they may be accomplished , and neither for Old Parliament nor New , nor any other man nor men , but as they directly are for these things , even for the establishing of Righteousness , Mercy , and Truth in the earth , and taking off all oppressions : and as they proceed upon , and forthwith endeavour the effecting these things ; and whoever are for these things , we are for them , and they for us ; and whosoever are against the Good Old Cause , and perfect freedome , whether Old Parliament or New , or any others whatsoever , we are against them , and will ingage our lives against them .

summary:
  In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so. And for the better satisfying of all such that have a desire to be concerned in the said Work , it is thought convenient to give an Account as to the Method thereof , which in brief is as followeth : The first Enterprize shall be to give ( in a compendious Method ) a Discription of the Kingdoms in general , as to their Scituation , Clime , Temperature of Air , Extent , Division , Fertility , Provisions , Commodities , Manufactures , and Trade ; also of their Inhabitants both Ancient , and Modern ; their Laws , Customs , Government , both Civil and Spiritual , the Courts of Judicature , the Precedency and Degrees of Honour , &c. And having thus run over these , and the like general Heads ; the next attempt will be to take a particular Survey of each County in the Kingdoms of his Majesties Dominions ; and therein to give an Account as to their Scituation with other Counties , their Extent , Fertility , what Commodities and Manufactures they produce ; their chief Rivers , Hills , and Towns , especially those that have Emunities granted unto them ; as Cities , Boroughs , or Towns Corporate ; as also , of such as have the Conveniency of Markets , and Fairs : with other Things of Remark both Ancient and Moderne : which Geographically shall be treated of .

The Proceedings of the French King against Our Subjects in Europe , are so Notorious , that We shall not need to enlarge upon them ; his countenancing the Seizure of English Ships by French Privateers , forbidding the Importation of great part of the Product and Manufactures of Our Kingdom , and imposing exorbitant Customes upon the rest , notwithstanding the vast Advantage he and the French Nation reap by their Commerce with England , are sufficient Evidences of his Designs to destroy the Trade , and consequently to ru●ne the Navigation , upon which the Wealth and Safety of this Nation very much depends .

And Serjeant Topham being now restored to his Place , your said Petitioner agreeing to the Authority of this House against Popery , and expecting for the said Serjeant to do likewise , he was willing to humble himself to the said Serjeant in any manner that your Honours should require of him : But the said Serjeant having thwarted the Authority of the Members , in not admitting your Petitioner to his said Place ; therefore your said Petitioner further sets forth , That the Cause of the said Serjeants acting against your Petitioner , and of his being offended at him , in keeping him out of his said Door-keepers Place , doth arise upon some old Grudge : Ever since he did belong to this House , he has endeavoured to undermine , and to sell your Petitioner out of his said Door-keepers Place for 20 or 30 l. And accordingly in the late King Charles's time , he was pleased to tell your Petitioner , he was offered so much for it ; and within a a short time after he turn'd your Petitioner out , and was then Restor'd by some of the worthy Members of the House ; but was first told by one of the Worthy Members , that the Serjeant said , That he should ask pardon ; whereas your Petitioner is Conscious of no Crime that he had committed against him ; and the said Serjeant having no objections against him , he was then restored without asking Pardon , and without paying any Mony for it .

  Gentlemen , I Can assure you I have been very Zealous for the Peace of this Nation ; and God has been infinitely good to lengthen out our Tranquility hitherto , contrary to the expectation of Men and Devils : I must consess I do not love War , because it is destructive , and the winner may be a loser : Therefore if you love God for the good of your own Souls , and the peace of the Kingdom put an end to it ; and if you love the Gentlemen , order their Money to be paid them again , for that is the greatest good you can do them , for God will never bless the breach of his Commands ; but if they will submit , and be willing to have their Money again : For it has been an ill example , and if they will be sorry that they should give the occasion , God will pardon both the Sheep and the Shepherd ; but if they are stiff-necked and will not yield , God knows how to punish them , and all that supports them ; for he is a powerful God , he can safe and destroy in a moment , for they shall know that there is a God in England as well as in Israel .
