Prynne Esq ; a Bencher of Lincolns Inne . WHereas not only one Walker , Bates , and others heretofore , for their own privat lucre , have printed sundry illiterate Pamphlets in my name , to cheat the People , but likewise one Chapman in Popes-head alley ( as I am credibly informed by those who will prove it ) on the 30. of this instant May hath printed and dispersed a paper , intituled , [ A Sheet , Or if you will , a Winding Sheet for the good Old Cause : By W. P. Philopolites . ] Prefixing the Letters of my name before it , as penned by me , and on this 31. of May , hath printed and published another Sheet , stiled [ Mola Asinaria : Or , The Vnreasonable and Vnsupportable Burthen now press'd upon the shoulders of this groaning Nation , &c. ] BY WILLIAM PRYNNE , Bencher of Lincolns Inne . Printing my name thus at large not only in the Title , but in the Contexture it self , insinuating it to be penned by me , on purpose to cheat the people of their monies ; and make me the Father of these BASTARDS , ( through the Stationers Knavery ) which the true Fathers need not be ashamed to own publickly by name , being Ingenuous well-penned Pieces . To prevent all future Frauds of this nature ( especially in Pamphlets declaiming against Publike Cheats , ) I held it my duty openly to detect and disclaim these two , in print before all the world ; having no hand at all in the conception , generation , or production of either of these Pamphlets directly or indirectly , whose Compilers are altogether unknown to me . And I shall desire all Stationers , Printers henceforth to take notice ; that their thrusting out Books in other mens names to pick peoples purses , is a Counterfeiting of Letters in other mens names falsly and deceitfully to get mony from other persons , within the Stat. of 33H 8. c. 1. punishable by Imprisonment , Pillory , and all other corporal pains , except death : Which Law I intend to prosecute against them , if they shall henceforth abuse me , and the people in this kinde . As for the scurrillous rayling , nameless , empty abusive Printed Libels and Papers formerly and lately published against me ; I look upon them onely with contempt , as the braying of illiterate Asses , who can neither contradict nor refute my writings for the publike good and safety : and value them no more , than the barking of mangie Doggs against the Moonshine : having treasured up this Soveraign Antidote of my Saviours own composition , in my breast many years since , against the venom of all false viperous tongues or pens , Luke 6. 22 , 23. Blessed are ye when men shall hate you , and seperate you from their company , and cast out your name as evil , for the Sonne of mans sake : Rejoyce and leap for joy , for great is your reward in heaven , for so did your Fathers unto the Prophets . A wise Heathen could say , Regium est male audire cum bene feceris ; much more a magnanimous Christian . The best refutation of Raylings , is Contempt ; Spreta exolescunt . In testimony of the premises , I thought necessary to subscribe and publish them under my own hand and name . From my Chamber at Lincolns Inne 31 May 1659. WILLIAM PRYNNE . LONDON , Printed for Edward Thomas at the Adam and Eve in Little Brittain , 1659.
