that are put to worry by the many rumors

that his majesty yet seeks an

intervention from the Scottish Force no

no and that is also a promise from his

majesty of course it is a promise

Thomas

Reb what of him

Majesty he's a

fanatical a

leveler should such a man be in such

high

command I would sleep easier in my bed

if he were removed from our affairs

Thomas is the best man in England

sire and my

friend well then let any man here tell

me a better way they let any man here

tell me any other way this ship can be

brought into Harbor other than to talk

to Charles

Stewart he gave me solemn undertakings

promises from his own lips which will

prove false as ever before

gentlemen we have royalist uprisings in

South Wales in Yorkshire and in let us

crush

them hi Thomas we can crush

them we can spend our lifetimes and our

children's lifetimes killing and killing

again but when the killing stops where

Is

England we cannot achieve all my

friends but we can

achieve a sufficiency a sufficiency of

Charles Stewart a sufficiency of bloated

thieves in the parliament a sufficiency

of soldiers who fought for their country

only to be told they must now St starve

for the wages

promised I fought not for that

sufficiency yeah well what then Thomas

More Death more destruction

what we Exile Charles

Stewart let him depart let us govern the

country through councils elected in the

streets the guilds the universities eled

in the streets by who by all men for I

think the poorest he that is in England

has a Life to Live is the greatest

he no more parliaments for men with

property only we should burn it

[Applause]

down well then

Thomas and all of you my friends and

comrades I must tell you

this what Colonel rebor urges this

Council to accept as a form of

government unknown on this Earth and one

that will straightway fall into

Anarchy rather than let this beloved

England fall into such misery I tell you

now I would pull promises out of Charles

Stewart's mouth another thousand

years then it's clear General in this

beloved England one of us will not

[Music]

live if you rise up you will become mut
