THE NATIONS RIGHT in Magna Charta discussed with the thing Called Parliament.  
Whereas I Th●●urau John Tendered A Petition dated the 15 of November 1650. To the Parliament so called; There is a name and a thing, and a thing, And a name, And a name, And not the thing, And the Name and the thing both in one according to the Obedience to the thing and name.  
I Tendered my petition upon the declarative: It was but Name to me, And not the thing, which caused this inquiry to be made, And to be declared that the people may see and discern betwixt the Name and the thing.  
Written by me Theaurau john Tannijjour Hipriest sabbah scribah Jail Earl of Exex or otherwise Essex Tenet of Norway or Normandi Lord Paulet of seen in France.  
I John Tanni true Earl of Exex alias Essex of the seed royal desentive from Aaron the Lord's Hipreest, desentive from true right Henry the seventh, which was of the race of the jews, of the Tartarian line, As my record of my Gencoligie, will make appear from Aaron Moses brother; Here is a mystery in this seeming seeing age, yet never more deeds of darkness acted by the sons of men  
Whereas I having laid my claim to the crown of England before any Acts came forth by the members that are members, I deny all that be, to be in the being, for he cannot properly be said to be, that is unradaxed; That is stands not in and upon the foundation that gives a being to them all, and us all, that is Magna Charra, and the petition of right; for mind; it is not names, but things that is consistant with the good of the nation: for a name is not the thing but the thing is the name and thing. So are not you that call yourselves a Parliament. For to make your name true, it must be declarative Acts done by you, yet if it were so you are unradiased men in your conjunct as after I will show not wronging you one tittle, nor any one for Truth is a direct rule measuring all, unmeasuring none which is. Now not any Act that you cause to be published can cut off, or lessen that that is. For that That is truth the say of men cannot unsay it; Theirs is but lettered names. But it is the Thing and will be. Because it hath a being. The name none. You make an act to be death to claim the crown in Charles Stuarts Line. Now what I have claimed, is from Henry the true seventh. No● as that villain 8 Henry hath set them to make his title good. By which treepwhole Stuart came in; yet he is a A Cheat in that name Stuart; which I can declare, and weaken the Ly. For I count him no better when Truth shall have her resurrection: Now my claim was passed before your Act came forth; And now you shall see I shall stoop to your will (Not Law) And in obedience to your command, this you can make no claim to the crown of England; But to that Command I state this full saying; WHAT I HAVE WRITTEN, I HAVE WRITTEN; I beseech you all people take notice of this state, And judge whether since the act I have laid any claim to the crown of England, yet I take your commanding negative to be a co●●ifie to my affirmative, and so by state I lose nothing. For truth is truth: so much for the first.  
Now know I come as. Nay a Commonwealths-man-Nay the Commonwealths-man, and head of your House by my Barony of Oxon 'tis stated Oundell in Northampton in Buckingham-shire; to let you know the meaning of that state; 'tis thus. That villian Henry the 8 so called to deceive the Assinant. Stated it in two Counties. That if claim was made in one, it lay in the other: So this was the indendant cheat. And likewise repealed that Act of Richard the first and third, And made it death to challenge any one into the field, and state place and day: Now I have challenged both the Marquis of Herford, and the Earl of Northumberland by letter, & he thatmade that statute to preserve his wicked seed God hath made it destructive. For they are challenged by that, that they should be defended by as he thought and it is death for them to answer by his own law, The challenge to Northumberland is in my brother Oliver Crumwells' right as he is heir apparent to Deavon and Northumberland: Only Northumberland hath my vicountcie as I shall make appear Now as I am a commoner of England. Now I stare that state Essential none can deny, and in this state you are bound to me: Now we shall, and all capacities look on, and into the question, and state stated: Now know that your being and my being in that right of rights. Nay that divine right intendant to all: ' It's Essential, wherein your and mine is but one: Now comes the state of your being; being in right of, Nay in Magna Charta, that is your life, and mine, and the nations, all conjoined into one: Now in that one, all being right, out of, and from that radax: know that in that right the Major, includes the Minor; Then where is your obedience to the nation, and that, that gave you a being; The Major chose the Minor, not to Lord but to love, Right redress; and suppress: now in the word suppress we see powerful actings to all our griefs, and love & redress shut out of door, is this the end you were chosen for? or that end our Fathers for our good caused such a composure, that though they were dead, the life of their right descentive might live in us and we in it; Alas we are the name, but they were the Thing and name truly: we are nothing in that stock; for every man's right is in, and by, and at a few men's wills: it is death to speak truth which is the Thing, only we live in the name, which name is a  without the thing.  
Now to come to the true state of this our called Parliament fellow-Commoners that cannot offend, if you understand your own Essence, ye were chosen but the choice at first was not perfect; consistant with the intendant of our Radaxes; there ought not in that choice parties to be made to make a choice, but a free voluntary intendant was intended:  
I beseech you brethren if you Be, yea will hear truth if you cannot do it be assenters to it, and not opposers of it, in so doing you will be found fighters against the Lord of hosts, whose breath is in you if you be in the truth, I measure no man I hate no man, only the Lord hath caused me to lay down to you the rule to measure yourselves by, if you be convinced that it is truth follow after it, and ensue it and break off your transgressions by righteous Actions, that the broken may be healed; For this I know great wrath is gone forth from the Lord: Now to grant you were a 〈…〉, and set acting for the intending, you were chosen, you 〈…〉, and abused and the Nations right not only vilifide, destroyed, 〈…〉 of the Nations choice was called forth then be came you another thing, and no Parliament according to the ancient right of Mag●● 〈◊〉, and the Petition of right that hath its essential right in and ●om Magna Charta: there this is your proper state, you were no Parliament, that though you in heart were right members, for the heart makes the right member of a true assembly. This is an allusive allegory, but to state it home, you were in truth your servants servants and no Parliament according to the ancient right of Magna Carta, and the second petition of right in King James his time. Now according to the right of our right there must be an account rendered for the invading all our Rights in that state; O it had been a glorious work that then a new choice had been according to true election, than was the time to have made us a free people as you call us, but your calling us free, we cannot say Amen, but we may safely affirm we are worse bound, And you now can not help us, nor yourselves, Nor can never recover: I know in what state this stands, but I conseal. Now to speak proper you were the soldier's thing called a Parliament: Now to them you proved the name, and not their intending thing, For than they thought you should do right to them and they would do Right to you, and you two held all our Rights by force from us: If you, or they or both had caused a new choice: not that you had power by right to stand, and choose to you: but the soldier standing defensive, having let the right down from you into the people again in whom it is inhearent, and you have put yourselves in hazard of the New choosing again; which thing you ought to have done: And I need not let you know this; for you know too much in doing no more: Now it is just that they that wronged the Nation in their right, should be wronged by them they wrongfully set up to have their right by, not regarding the Nations wrong it suffers by them: Now I speak as a Commoner of England, nay I speak for the whole Native: It is a dishonour to you that the soldier is not paid fully to a penny 'tis his due, yea much hardship have they suffered for nothing. Now I beseech you consider that when a Parliament is, it doth right maintaining the honour of the Nation in all its proper essences: Now I hope I shall offend none that truly Are, for they that Be will endure looking into: for truth seeks no covert nor Corner, but stands openly to be viewed of all and views all; mind that state: But falsehood and a  is seeking coverts continually, and always building defensives, and yet never strong, but always weak and fearful: The Righteous is as bold as a Lion walks in, and by one and the same rule: Now if that rule which is here intendant be all your measures, or the Major part, than fear will not possess you. But if ye be wicked, that is weakness, and soon offended: But 'tis better to return though to the Manhood disgrace, then to go on in stubborness in an evil way, and resolve thus, that though we have done thus, and conscience witness against us, we will cut off to establish our own way not God's way: Then know that guilt will never be secured, but will cut off all, but itself: This is the true nature of rebellion against the Command of God: That word true is not proper stated in that sense, because truth cannot be in a ; for nothing but truth confounds the : Now to return, to you whom is intended thus much; if you say a Parliament, I say the disgrace of the Nation; Thus will you stand to your words, your vows, your Oaths, your Covenant, your engagement, now I know some of the least Actors can with innocency, and uprightness stand to it. Now while it is thus, the upright, and innocent suffers, for God hath a people among you, who are of a trembling heart, and now these suffer, through the miscarriages of others, & are branded with the name of infamy: But my Brethren, God will clear you in the day of restitution (and it is at hand) Now if men dare not own their word, Oaths, Covenant, Engagement, nor stand by Magna Charta, these men must be spirits; and not men, yet we see and feel these to be men; but if they do disown that is stated: judge ye, are they fitted to be such men? know, so much as a man is just, he is the representative of his maker's majesty and no farther: For your words let the Nation judge, which truly is essential, your Judges hold the same method in the first state, as the Major chose the Minor, I hope we that have stood for truth may now speak truth, though we cannot enjoy it: your word and our adherents to you in the first, was for the Gospel, the Law, the liberty of the subject, we that are the Commons: you having overcome by our  charge, loss, and trouble what hath been enjoyed of this by us yet? but thus we have paid your request: I mean taxes, you have deducted the fouldiers pay for his quarter in part, and the Country hath had this by the soldier eaten up, and no pay; whose wide purse holds that sum that was worse than ten taxes together: this I know I felt, and from fence I speak only▪ Now I blame not the soldier for this; but you, named Parliament: One more to that when all the provision was spent, there comes another reckoning, the Excize-man he must have so much for beer and meat, that was eaten by your, nay our own soldiers; and never a penny for the substance, but so much for the pleasuring the soldier, with parting with that we have for nothing; is this a demonstrative of a true Parliament, I desire no offence may be taken of truth for what I have writ I will maintain, and send the least Messenger, or porter I will appear and answer by writing; for I have an impeade in my speech, and I desire no more favour: for truth is truth and will be though trod on: I am not thus chastised to run into a corner, if he whom I serve will not deliver me, I am content, so that deliverance come but to the poor peeled Nation, though I be offered a sacrifice, and burnt to ashes for them I shall rejoice: he cannot be that I am, but must be so in the reality of his sold before the eternal God: know you, I know what I speak, though this state you cannot reach: So much for the first freedom.  
The next is to maintain the Law of the Land, and pull down tyranny, this we were sworn to: Now what law is there preserved but all destroyed? for Magna Charta is the being of all our beings; if we have then beings in the true right of the Nation; in which being ye assembled have no being and then ye which have no being, 'tis impossible for you to demonstrate a being to us that are (if we durst say) in the right being, and ye in the wrong being: for you Be not for us; but ours: I pray mind this the intention is good, if right construed: can you say you are for us? 'tis saying indeed, that saying stands you in little, there is the price you pay for us; but prey upon us by consequence, doth this stand in full with your Covenant of pulling down Tyranny? Know tyranny is not a name, but the Thing: We cut of Charles for tyranny, it● writes a sad motto amongst Tyrants. Now what is a Tyrant: An Oppressor, an Incrocher, a Conjoiner to himself of that, that is not his, against that Thing the Nation covenanted, not the name of tyranny, but the Thing: now where that Thing reigns in its sphere, the Nation is bound by Oath to take it down or else they are perjured men, and covenant-breakers, and let all the earth know covenant-breakers God will judge: For the preservation of the Law, we have none made; know you that an act or law, takes its birth at your rising, or dissolving, and not before: Now good men may be made bad by sitting too long, and the custom of Parliament was that the last should reform the first, if any miscarage was in the foregoing state, and add what good, they in their wisdom thought good for the Commonwealth: But we sit so close, so long that it gives a cause of jealousy we are afraid that others should see what we have done: is truth ashamed that her acts should be looked into? 'Tis not truth that is so: The next and greatest, the influence of the people is wholly depopulated, in all their essential liberties, so that Magna Charta which was their koatrified strength, now 'tis of no use at all to them: now to deal plainly with you, if Magna Charta takes being, and life, it can no ways, but by destruction of one or both, that is the Parliament or people: Sirs it is heavy, and lamentable I mourn to see it, yet cannot help it: happy is he whose hands and heart is not defiled with blood, for blood must, and will have blood: now what is wanting? Why love, What is Love? It is God; What is God? A King and he cannot reign over bloodthirsty men: now know that king is but a name, and not the Thing, and king is the name and the Thing: The manhood is not king, but the anointing is the king, But this method is not known among you, for if it were better actions would flow: I know my afflictions you have heard of, I have been made hands, feet, food, eyes, and clothing to many: I have been emptied of temporals, but am filled with the eternal being, which hath loved me with everlasting love: now know I hate no man's person, I envy none, I care for none, I am One, and that One that state what you, nay the creation can, in earth, air, fire, water, Terrestrial, Celestial, the influences of the stars, I am able to answer, to give an account, I am able to give a state, in these things in anyone of these things, that the whole creation cannot answer, if they could I could not be high Priest to my God.  
I have put 3 small queries on this little manuscript that by them I may know it to be my one.  
What is the creative part of the Cabalesterial inclue in the Terresteriall Orbs of the Theabarick: that word is Called.  
What is the inclue of Philiades in her coertive part in the new Trine in the Hemispheer of sol that word new seems strange, but to let you know there is a new birth in the Planitoriam scheme, or scine.  
What is the inclusive PERTINEAT in the conclave of the medeterranean Assome: Scholars look to PERTINEAT, I am but a child yet, and but 9 weeks since God gave me this childish knowledge, yet with my child shnesse I desire you bear with me: Now know that anger is weakness; And wrath that is not God: but by God it is. Mind but That state last: Now for you to be angry because I do not give you the name of Parliament, It is because you should not be destroyed: Wisdom foresees the dangerous event that will fall on you in that state: your method and rule, hath been all along evasions: Now I will help you to the best, yet it will not help you: For though I koatrefie you there, you fall in another place appointed, but made by yourselves. Now I speak as a Commoner, that state cannot be denied me, And in that state I being it is for the Real, not intentive good I take the whole to speak for. As I am the head of your convene, (if ye were) by my Barony of Oxon alias Essex: Now I have two rights, nay three rights to stand on, and for: for Magna Charta, the being of our Being's, and a commoner in that right in Magna Charta and by Magna Charta the head of you, if you were: Now how can any state be stated betwixt that, that hath an essential being, And that that hath none? To make good that state of Evasion, I promised to you, it is thus: the commonwealth cannot in real truth call you to an account, Neither ought they if you deny that name Parliament, which if you affirm you undo yourselves: Thus to be accountable to that, from whence you had no being in their being, nor being by them, nor from them: but this state you must bear with, your being is of, and upon them; Remember this state was cited in the foregoing page speaking of God; This is mysterious, but I state my method to the reach and overture of your Capacities: Now according to the real rule of right, the commonwealth should render itself ridiculous to demand a due where they committed no trust: your negative is truer than their affimative in this state: this is a strange condition that all our Estates are wasted, oppression goes on, and must go on; Though it is strange, 'tis true, the sensatives can set to their seal: I would it were other ways.  
But to find out this Thing that BEES upon us all: there it is we may swear Thing, we feel it: Now to find this BEE, that BEES every where amongst us: I have found it first: I bring tidings: For this Thing sake am I sent forth to undeceive the people, 'tis the soldiers intended right Thing to himself. He gave it a being: and the Thing that he thought should have been in a sense life to him, is proved death in a sense: for the Thing, nay his Thing proves but name, and that name in that credit, that when he hath done his duty to his Thing, he thought it would have proved, and in his accounts he finds it Thing, and in deduction for his quarter, and by that his sum cut less, and then counting at his agreement at 8 d. a day, for which many out of conscience havedestroyed them, and theirs and coming to their Thing, it is but name, and the name bearing no more credit to him then to be worth to him 4 shil. a pound; Is this payment for faithful service: judge all men soldiers this is truth you know: my heart bleeds to see, but cannot help it: unlawful, and unjust ways is ever paid in its own coin, and so 'tis just; your full sums agreed of, is your due, as God is just, for there is a justness in the meeanest thing and that is properly called Gods essential being (I speak after the manner of men) now soldiers by creating your Parliament, if you can call it so, it matters not to me: to me name is not; but things are the substance: now though for the present your moneys would not make much of it a 'bove 4 shil a pound, it would be inquired into now the cause came that procured the effect of your sail of your due earned debt; was it weakness in your radax, that it was note able to state a strong essence, that must be denied; for their power and your power would have fetched in your own deuce, being the whole kingdom was under your commands But it might be thus: In writing I can make the last letter take the whole state, when I writ in Mophes, that is in the Medish method than I writ k for cough which is strong now from a radax; I can let fall a weak essence, to take the state in k to the radax again: I am afraid of this juggling nay plain dealing: I will prove it the soldier is necessitated through you, he is forced to sell, you must be paymasters your derivacies draws up into essency; your essency, and ye state the radax of the soldiers earned wages: is it fair or foul let the world judge: true 'tis undeniable; how comes such an involved enrolment of soldiers deuce into a payment, for whose lands I know not, but the soldiers due is the true due in that patched purchase; Now soldiers I must show you your undues: for I have but one rule; you wronged the Commonwealth, when you divided the Parliament, than you erred as is hinted before: Now whereas ye soldiers wronged the Nation in their right, you are rewarded with wrong by your own intended right; now to do the nation wrong, having done so, you ought to do the Nation right, for that end you were set on work: Now to do right to the Nation, is all you can do, take down your Thing set up by you: that Thing nay name Parliament, and let the right descend into the people again, and a new choice made, these to be accountable to you, because they had a being of, and from and by you, in this doing you prove yourselves, nay they cause you prove yourselves honest men at last, now this way will prove good for the nation; Only the loss of their monies: thus you may account with them, that have so straightly accounted with you: take your due where it is due to be taken: for your due God doth know is dear earned, and justly aught to have been paid you natives know, 'tis not the soldier that wrongs you, love the soldier, none can help you but he, 'tis he that should pay the soldiers that wrongs you, who that is judge ye: now if any man or men be offended at this truth here inserted, and count me an enemy to the Parliament: know I cannot properly nor unproperly be an enemy to that that truly is not the Thing but a name, nay death to them by law in and by Magna Charta to own the same according to the right of the nations right; a Parliament is the glory of the nation, Nay the truth of the Nation; 'tis the splendour and beauty of our beauty, if by us it hath a being, or else it can be no Parliament, now this I honour, and would lay down my life for, as at first I stood for you, when you were, and covenanted with you, and held with you till you from lambs turned wolves, than I was afraid of you, I opposed Charles Stuart in ship money was committed for it in London, my horse taken, and sold for shipmoney in Cambrige shire; by Pitcher of Trumpington then sheriff, know I ever stood against the Thing Tyranny, and not the name, now I hope no man, no honest man or men, will conceive anger against me for speaking the truth, as this I leave to all men to judge of, But thus in plain terms, if any man, or men be angry and charge me with crime, This I declare to all people, that, that Man or men I will prove traitor, or traitors by the law of the land, by word, by promise, by protestation, by oath, by covenant, by engagement, All this I will do so sure as the Lord lives, I jest not, I am in True earnest. Look to it, I weep for it, to your consciences I commit to judge of: But know a  with a  is one Meathod, 〈…〉 one Meathod. But bring 〈…〉 to be measured by, Truth than it will not hold, so much for this time.  
Now know I am a mad man; And ye declare me so to be, it will be weakness in you to question me; But know that A mad man is not to answer, by the law of the land: I take that privilige, you cannot deny it, if you be men sensable bare with my v●●knesse; God I hope will give me greater understanding: so I rest your ●●at are truly the Lords; that sear him, and walk in obeeience to him.  
Yours To serve you in love Theaurau John Tani. From the three Golden Lions without Temple-bar. December 28. 1650.
