His Maties Speech The Queenes Speech Concerning the Reasons of the House of Commons to stay the Queenes going into Holland ❧ The Kings Speech MY Lords and Gentlemen nothing but extreame necessity shall make me willing at this time for to give consent unto the Queenes going out of the Land and I shall be very sorry if the case stand so that she should be forc't to goe to preserve her health and I give unto both Houses many thanks for the care they have of my Wives health and contentment therefore I desire there may be a Committee of both Houses here to morrow at three a clock to attend my Wife with these Reasons which have now been read to me The Reasons of the House of Commons to stay the Queenes going into Holland Delivered to the Lords at a Conference the 14. of July By John Pym Esquire And Delivered the 15. to his Majestie in presence of both Houses by my Lord BANKES THere is great cause to doubt lest the Papists have some designe upon her Majesties Journey because the House hath beene informed that divers of them have sold off their Lands to a good value and used other meanes to get ready money 2. It is observed some of them have beene very diligent gathering great quantities of Gold 3. It is informed that more than an ordinary number of Papists are gone beyond Sea already and those of the better sort II. The great number of English fugitives now beyond the Seas who by their late designes and practises are knowne to be full of malice to the State and will no doubt seeke all opportunities of accesse to her Majesty and as much as they can labour to infuse into her such evill Counsels as may trouble the peace of the Kingdome whereof at this time there is more danger because the affaires of the Kingdome are not yet fully settled and upon disbanding of the Army all parts are like to abound with Souldiers and such others as will be apt to be provoked to tumults and seditions especially in the time of the Kings absence in Scotland III. That the House of Commons have received information of great quantity of Treasure in Jewells Plate and ready Money packt up to be conveyed away with the Queene not onely in such a proportion as the present occasions with due respect to her Majesties Honour may seeme to require but a farre greater quantity and that divers Papists and others under pretence of her Majesties goods are like to convey great summes of money and other Treasures beyond the Seas which will not onely impoverish the State but may be imployed to the fomenting some mischievous attempts to the trouble of the publique peace IV. That as it will be a great dishonour to the State if her Majesty should not be attended and furnished sutably to her quality so it will be a very heavie burthen in this time of great necessity and occasions of other publique charges if shee shall be provided in so Royall a manner as shall be fit for her Majesty and the honour of the King and Kingdome V. That because we understand by Sir Theodore Mayerne that the chiefe cause of her Majesties-sicknesse and distempers proceed from some discontent of her minde the House of Commons have thought good to declare that if any thing within the power of Parliament may give her Majesty contentment they are so tender of her health both in due respect to his most Excellent Majesty and her selfe that they will be ready to further her satisfaction in all things so farre as may stand with that publike to which they are obliged VI That the Commons conceive it will be some dishonour to this Nation if her mtie. should at this unseasonable time go out of the Kingdome upon any griefe or discontent received here and therefore we shall labour by all good meanes to take away and prevent all just occasions of her Majesties trouble in such manner as may further her content and therein her health which will be a very great comfort and joy to our selves and the rest of his Majesties loving Subjects The Queenes Speech July 21. 1641. VVHen the Parliament did th' other day expresse their Affections to me in taking into consideration the journey which I had resolved on for the recovery of my health and represented a desire of my stay with a tender care of removing all occasions of my indisposition I could not then give a positive answer such as I desired for their satisfaction because I knew not that my health would give way unto it but since that time I have resolved to venture my health and for complying with their desires not to goe since my presence here will be acceptable unto them and that they conceive it will be for the good of the Kingdome For I desire nothing more than to let you see that I shall in all things be ready to gratifie them and to serve the State though as I then said with the hazard of my life Printed in the yeere 1641.
