Prynne, and the Yorke Commissioners decree to deface, and burne his pictures at Chester high-Crosse. The House of Commons order for, and manner of their returnes from exile; their petitions to the Parliament; the votes of the Commons house upon the report of their cases, declaring the proceedings and censures against them illegall, groundlesse, and against the subjects liberty, with M.
