of Justice The Earl of Cambridge after a little Discourse in private with some of his Servants kneeled down on the Side of the Scaffold and prayed a while to himself When he had finisht his Prayer D. Sibbald spake to him thus My Lord I humbly beseech God that you may now with an Holy and Christian Courage give up your Soul to the Hand of your faithful Creator and gracious Redeemer and not be dismayed with any sad Apprehension of the Terrors of this Death And what a blessed and glorious Exchange you shall make within a very few Minutes Then with a cheefful and smiling Countenance the Earl embracing the Doctor in his Arms said Camb. Truly Sir I do take you in mine Arms and truly I bless God for it I do not fear I have an Assurance that is grounded here laying his Hand upon his Heart now that gives me more true Joy than ever I had I pass out of a miserable World to go into an Eternal and Glorious Kingdom And Sir though I have been a most sinful Creature yet God's Mercy I know is infinite and I bless my God for it I go with so clear a Conscience that I know not the Man that I have personally injured D. Sibbald My Lord it is a marvellous great Satisfaction that at this last Hour you can say so I beseech the Lord for his Eternal Mercy strengthen your Faith that in the very moment of your Dissolution you may see the Arms of the Lord Jesus stretched out ready to receive your Soul Then the Earl of Cambridge embracing those his Servants which were there present said to each of them You have been very faithful to me and the Lord bless you Camb. Then turning to the Executioner said I shall say a very short Prayer to my God while I lie down there and when I stretch out my Hand my Right Hand then Sir do your Duty And I do freely forgive you and so I do all the World D. Sibbald The Lord in great Mercy go along with You and bring You to the Possession of Everlasting Life strengthening Your Faith in Jesus Christ This is a Passage My Lord a short Passage unto Eternal Glory I hope through the Free Grace of Your gracious God You are now able to say O Death where is thy Sting O Grave where is thy Victory And to make this comfortable Answer Blessed be God blessed be God who hath given me an Assurance of Victory thro' Christ Jesus Then the Earl of Cambridge said to the Executioner Must I lie all along Execut. Yes and 't please your Lordship Camb. When I stretch out my Hands But I will fit my Head first tell me if I be right and how you would have me lie Execut. Your shirt must be pinn'd back for it lies too high upon your Shoulders Which was done accordingly D. Sibbald My Lord Now now lift up Your Eyes unto Jesus Christ and cast Your self now into the Everlasting Arms of Your gracious Redeemer Then the Earl having laid his Head over the Block said Is this right D. Sibbald Jesus the Son of David have Mercy upon You. Execut. Lie a little lower Sir Camb. Well Stay then till I give you the Sign And so having lain a short space devoutly praying to himself he stretched out his Right Hand whereupon the Executioner at one Blow severed his Head from his Body which was received by two of his Servants then kneeling by him into a Crimson Taffety Scarff and that with the Body immediately put into a Coffin brought upon the Scaffold for that purpose and from thence conveyed to the House that was Sir John Hamilton's at the Mews This Execution being done the Sheriffs Guard went immediately to meet the Earl of Holland which they did in the Mid-way between the Scaffold and Westminster-Hall and the Under-Sheriffs Son having received him into his Charge conducted him to the Scaffold he taking Mr. Balton all the way in his Hand passed all along to the Scaffold discoursing together Upon which being come observing his Voice would not reach to the People in regard the Guard compassed the Scaffold he said Henry Lord Rich Earl of Holland His Speech on the Scaffold immediately before his Death March 9. 1649. Holland IT is to no purpose I think to speak any thing here Which way must I speak And then being directed to the front of the Scaffold he leaning over the Rayls said I think it is fit to say something since God hath called me to this place The first thing which I must profess is what concerns my Religion and my Breeding which hath been in a good Family that hath ever been faithful to the true Protestant Religion in the which I have been bred in the which I have lived and in the which by Gods Grace and Mercy I shall dye I have not lived according to that Education I had in that Family where I was born and bred I hope God will forgive me my sins since I conceive it is very much his pleasure to bring me to this place for the sins that I have committed The cause that hath brought me hither I believe by many hath been much mistaken They have conceived that I have had ill Designs to the State and to the Kingdom Truly I look upon it as a Judgment and a just Judgment of God not but I have offended so much the State and the Kingdom and the Parliament as that I have had no extream vanity in serving them very extraordinarily For those Actions that I have done I think it is known they have been ever very faithful to the Publick and very particularly to Parliaments My Affections have been ever exprest truly and clearly to them The dispositions of Affairs now have put things in another posture than they were when I was engaged with the Parliament I have never gone off from those Principles that ever I have professed I have lived in them and by God's Grace will die in them There may be Alterations and Changes that may carry them further than I thought reasonable and truly there I left them But there hath been nothing that I have said or done or professed either by Covenant or Declaration which hath not been very constant and very clear upon the principles that I ever have gone upon which was to serve the King the Parliament Religion I should have said in the first place the Commonwealth and to seek the Peace of the Kingdom That made me think it no improper time being prest out by Accidents and Circumstances to seek the Peace of the Kingdom which I thought was proper since there was something then in Agitation but nothing agreed on for sending Propositions to the King that was the furthest aim that I had and truly beyond that I had no intention none at all And God be praised although my blood comes to be shed here there was I think scarce a drop of blood shed in that Action that I was ingaged in For the
