Tant And did the King go on Collecting and taking Tunnage and Poundage notwithstanding Tory. Yes he said he could not want it and sent them a former Message that if He had not a timely supply He would betake himself to New Councils Tant New Councils what were they Tory. The Commons in their said Remonstrance often with thoughtful Hearts remember the words New-Councils repeating and Repeating them as if they were somewhat against the old Parliamentary Councils and course of this Kingdom and they Order'd every Member of the House to have a Copy of the said Remonstrance for they had not time to Present it to his Gracious Majesty but were Dissolv'd though the Lords also prepared a Petition to stay the Kings purpose in Dissolving the Parliament sending Viscount Mandevil Earl of Manchester Lord President of his Majesties Council the Earls of Pembrook Carlisle and Holland to entreat his Majesty to give Audience to the whole House of Peers But the King returned Answer that his Resolution was to hear no motion for that purpose but He would Dissolve the Parliament and he was then as good as his Word for he immediately Dissolved them by Commission under the great Seal Dated at Westminster June 15.2 R.

The King also Published another Proclamation against Preaching or Disputing the Arminian Controversies Pro or Con but the effects of that Proclamation how equally soever intended became the stopping of the Puritan's Mouths and an uncontroul'd Liberty to the Tongues and Pens of the thriving Divinity-men the rising side Mountagues Party And though the Parliament was Dissolv'd so that the Duke of Buckingham for that nearly-reflecting Article the last against him which the King in Honour and by the Bonds of natural Affection and Piety to the Memory of his Deceased Father thought himself obliged to Call him to a publick account for so Daring an Insolence in applying a Plaister to the Kings breast against his Will and without the Advice and contrary to the Opinion of the Sworn Physitians of King James who attributed the Cause of his trouble unto the said Pla●●●●● and a Drink that Buckingham gave him as was Alledged in the Thirteenth Article of the Dukes Impeachment and the said Drink twice given to the King by Buckingham's own Hands and a third time refused by the King who felt great Impairment of his Life and Health complaining of the Drink that the Duke gave him His Physitians telling him to Please him and Comfort him that His second Impairment was from cold taken or some other ordinary Cause No no said his Majesty It is that which I had from Buckingham as more at large much aggravated and insisted upon by Mr. Wandesford who managed the Thirteenth Article of the Impeachment against Buckingham Tant But what

I must needs say that the Law which should be Wise Holy and Good would be
