“Who are the oppressors but the Nobility and Gentry; and who are oppressed, if not the Yeoman, the Farmer, the Tradesman and the Labourer? … your slavery is their liberty, your poverty is their prosperity; yea, in brief, your honouring of them, dishonoureth the commonality… Unlord those that are lorded by you.”
– Ranter Laurence Clarkson, 1647 (p. 81)
