Free-Parliament
Quaeres
,
&c.
1.
VVHether
Coffee
be
not
the
most
fitting
Drink
for
the
English
Nation
,
since
we
have
equalled
,
nay
out-gone
the
Turks
themselves
;
for
though
they
murdered
the
Father
,
yet
they
presently
set
up
the
Son
?
2.
Whether
our
late
Rumpers
deserve
not
that
that
saying
,
Nulla
fides
pietasve
viris
qui
Castra
sequuntur
,
should
be
thus
interpreted
,
There
is
neither
Faith
nor
Pity
to
be
shewed
to
them
nor
their
Janizaries
?
3.
Whether
Hell
at
Westminster
be
not
likely
to
lose
its
Customers
,
since
the
Devils
are
turned
out
of
the
Parliament
House
?
4.
Whether
Thom.
Scot
can
pretend
to
Liberty
of
Conscience
,
since
he
made
an
Arch-bishops
House
a
Prison
or
Gaol
?
5.
Whether
by
the
Covenant
,
Sir
Arthur
Haslerigg
ought
not
to
be
ejected
from
the
Bishoprick
of
Durham
,
since
by
that
we
have
sworn
against
all
limbs
of
Episcopacy
?
6.
Whether
Hanging
or
Drowning
be
the
best
waies
of
Transportation
of
our
late
Republicans
to
the
Common-wealths
of
Vtopia
or
Oceana
?
7.
Whether
that
Prophecy
the
Saints
shall
rule
the
earth
,
be
not
meant
of
Barbadoes
,
Jamaica
,
or
some
terra
incognita
?
8.
Whether
Col.
John
S.
can
keep
off
the
Taxes
of
an
Execution
,
by
the
profit
he
got
by
printing
the
late
Act
of
Assessement
?
9.
Whether
F.
and
H.
the
late
Common-wealth
Printers
should
not
change
Names
,
since
the
first
swells
like
a
Mountain
,
and
the
other
is
but
a
poor
Leveller
?
10.
Whether
Sir
Arthur
Haslerigg
hath
not
a
President
of
Patience
,
in
this
his
falling
into
the
pit
of
Adversity
,
from
his
falling
into
the
ditch
at
Leicester
?
11.
Whether
Bradshaw
and
Dun
did
not
accompany
each
other
to
Hell
,
that
the
Devil
having
got
such
a
Judge
,
might
not
want
a
fit
Executioner
?
12.
Whether
the
losse
of
writing
the
News
of
England
,
was
not
the
Cause
that
Nedham
was
so
busie
with
the
News
from
Brussels
?
13.
Why
since
England
hath
so
long
been
made
Bedlam
,
the
Sectarians
should
rather
be
called
Fanaticks
than
Franticks
?
14.
Whether
the
Army
be
not
dispossessed
of
the
Devil
,
and
Sir
Arthur
,
since
they
begin
to
submit
to
the
Civil
Authority
?
15.
Whether
the
Souldiers
ought
not
to
tear
off
their
Red
Coats
,
since
Oliver
first
instituted
them
,
that
they
might
resemble
the
Devils
Pensioners
,
in
flaming
Doublets
?
16.
Whether
the
Fanaticks
do
not
hate
Monck
now
,
as
much
as
ever
they
did
the
Church
,
their
King
,
or
Country
?
17.
If
the
Proverb
be
true
,
When
Knaves
fall
out
,
Honest
men
may
come
by
their
Goods
;
then
whether
Lamberts
switching
the
Rump
out
of
Doors
,
and
their
driving
him
into
the
Tower
,
may
not
open
a
Door
of
Hope
for
something
further
?
18.
Whether
a
Long
Parliament
,
a
Lord
,
and
five
Members
,
might
not
,
were
they
now
conjoyned
together
,
be
termed
the
Devils
Coach
with
six
Horses
?
19.
Whether
there
is
not
like
to
be
a
lesse
Arbibitrary
administration
of
Justice
in
Hell
,
if
Bradshaw
be
made
President
there
,
instead
of
Minos
,
Rhadamanthus
,
or
Aeacus
?
20.
VVhether
the
next
Parliament
ought
not
to
condemn
Dr.
John
Owens
Primer
,
to
be
burnt
by
the
Common
Hangman
,
since
it
was
made
for
the
use
of
the
Children
of
the
Rump
?
21.
Whether
any
of
the
late
Rump
could
have
stood
for
Parliament-men
,
if
neither
fools
nor
knaves
had
been
capable
of
Election
?
22.
Whether
it
be
not
the
Cheapest
way
of
buying
Lands
,
with
Col.
Harvey
and
others
,
to
agree
with
the
State
for
three
moieties
,
and
then
cozen
them
of
two
?
23.
Whether
that
Comedie
,
called
The
Costly
Whore
,
was
not
intended
for
the
life
of
the
Lady
Sands
,
and
was
written
by
Henry
Martin
?
24.
Whether
the
Bastard
,
a
Tragedie
,
was
compiled
by
Mr.
Goff
,
or
written
by
J.
Ireton
?
25.
Whether
Orlando
Furioso
that
antient
Italian
Poem
,
was
not
meant
for
a
Prophetical
Relation
of
the
life
of
Sir
Arthur
Haslerigg
?
26.
Whether
the
Discontented
Collonel
,
be
not
the
fittest
play
to
be
acted
by
our
cashiered
Officers
,
since
they
have
now
no
more
to
do
in
State
Comedies
?
27.
Whether
Sir
Arthur
did
not
act
the
Raging
Turk
in
Westminster-Hall
,
when
he
saw
the
admission
of
the
Secluded
Members
?
28.
Whether
it
was
to
know
if
he
should
be
chosen
for
Parliament
man
,
or
when
he
should
take
his
turn
at
Tyburn
,
that
the
said
Gentleman
lately
addressed
himself
to
the
Star-cheater
Lilly
?
29.
Whether
Col.
S.
Creditors
have
any
assurance
of
his
honestie
,
since
he
may
,
being
a
Printer
,
so
easily
change
the
first
letters
of
his
name
,
and
make
it
Cheater
?
30.
Whether
Atkins
be
the
Anagram
of
a
Stink
,
or
a
Stink
of
Atkins
;
and
whether
that
be
not
a
very
fitting
name
for
a
Member
of
the
Rump
?
31.
Whether
the
fift
of
November
,
or
the
twenty
one
of
February
,
deserve
the
greater
solemnity
,
as
a
day
of
delivery
from
the
grander
Traytors
?
32.
Why
a
Rump
being
a
small
and
worst
part
of
a
man
,
so
many
good
Saints
should
go
together
to
the
making
of
it
up
?
33.
Whether
ever
Doctors
Commons
might
more
fitly
be
called
the
Spiritual
Court
than
lately
,
when
none
but
Saints
were
Judges
and
Proctors
?
34.
Whether
the
Proverb
that
saith
,
Facilis
descensus
Averni
,
the
way
to
Hell
is
easie
,
be
not
a
mistake
,
since
our
late
States-men
took
such
pains
in
it
?
35.
Whether
the
so
stately
equipping
of
the
Naseby
Frigat
,
be
not
for
the
bringing
home
of
the
Son
,
since
the
Father
lost
his
Crown
and
Dignity
at
that
fatal
place
,
that
so
there
may
be
an
allusion
to
that
Proverb
?
—
Quâ
cuspide
vulnus
acutâ
Tulerat
,
hâc
ipsâ
cuspide
tulit
opem.
36.
Whether
an
act
of
Oblivion
can
ever
be
really
passed
for
the
late
men
of
the
Tail
;
since
they
can
never
forget
their
former
Rogueries
,
if
they
be
suffered
to
injoy
the
profits
of
them
?
37.
Whether
the
salt
of
the
English
wits
is
not
strangely
unprofitable
,
since
it
makes
the
Rump
to
stink
more
and
more
in
the
nostrils
of
the
People
?
38.
Lastly
,
Whether
it
be
not
good
service
to
the
Nation
,
to
keep
the
stink
of
them
thus
fresh
in
their
noses
,
that
they
may
for
the
future
avoid
fouling
their
fingers
with
them
?
