chances and uncertainties of this present world wherein the Lives of the Best of Princes as well as other men are liable to the stroke of Death and Violence Only fear the Lord and serve him in truth and with all your heart For consider how great things he hath done for you But if ye shall still do wickedly ye shall be destroyed both ye and your King Now let us pray as the Church very seasonably instructs us in the Collect for the day O Lord Coll. for Septuagesima we beseech thee favourably to hear the Prayers of thy People that we who are justly punished for our offences may be mercifully delivered by thy Goodness for the Glory of thy Name through Jesus Christ our Saviour who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Ghost ever one God world without end Amen THE END An Account of what His Majesty said at His first coming to Council His Majesty at His first sitting in His Privy-Council was graciously pleased to express Himself in this manner My Lords BEfore I enter upon any other business I think fit to say something to You. Since it hath pleased Almighty God to place me in this station and I am now to succeed so Good and Gracious a King as well as so very Kind a Brother I think it fit to Declare to you That I will endeavour to follow His Example and most especially in that of His great Clemency and Tenderness to his People I have been reported to be a Man for Arbitrary Power but that is not the only story has been made of me And I shall make it my endeavours to preserve this Government both in Church and State as it is now by Law Established I know the Principles of the Church of England are for Monarchy and the Members of it have shewed themselves Good and Loyal Subjects Therefore I shall always take care to Defend and Support it I know too that the Laws of England are sufficient to make the King as Great a Monarch as I can wish And as I shall never depart from the Just Rights and Prerogative of the Crown so I shall never invade any mans Property I have often heretofore ventured my Life in Defence of this Nation and I shall still go as far as any man in preserving it in all its Just Rights and Liberties Whereupon the Lords of the Council were humble Suiters to His Majesty That these His Gracious Expressions might be made publick which His Majesty did order accordingly And this is no more than what His Majesty several times before had given assurance of particularly when the Vniversity of Cambridge waited upon His then Royal Highness at Newmarket to welcom his Return to England in March 1682. To whom after Thanks for their kind expressions He thus answer'd That He was glad of this and all other occasions to declare That He would ever stand by the Church of England as now Established and countenance the Members of it as having seen by experience that They are the best Supporters of the Crown And that He would use his Endeavours and Interest for the Preservation of the King's Person and the Government in the State and the Church of England as now Established by Law O Lord Save the KING And mercifully hear us when we call upon thee FINIS Books Printed for Charles Brome DR Comber's Paraphrase on the Common Prayer in Folio The Fathers Legacy to his Friends containing the whole Duty of Man Dr. Du Moulin's Week of Prayers Precepts and Practical Rules for a truly Christian Life The Reformed Monastery or The Love of Jesus Montluck's Commentaries Fol.
