both express'd the greatness of their Founders and preserved the splendor of the Kingdom which might at the reformation have in some measure been kept up and converted to sundry pious uses Upon consideration thereof those Gent. declined it and pitch'd upon the Vault where K. Ed. 4. had been inter'd being on the north side of the Choire near the Altar that K. being one his late Maj. would oftentimes make honorable mention of and from whom his Maj. was lineally propagated That therefore induced Mr. Herbert to give order to N. Harrison and Hen. Jackson to have that Vault opened partly covered with a fair large stone of Touch raised within the Arch adjoyning having a range of iron bars gilt curiously cut according to Church work c. But as they were about this work some Noble-men came thither namely the Duke of Richmond the Marq. of Hertford the Earl of Lindsey and with them Dr. Juxon B. of London who had license from the Parliament to attend the Kings body to his grave Those Gent. therefore Herbert and Mildmay thinking fit to submit and leave the choice of the place of burial to those great persons they in like manner viewed the Tomb-house and the Choir and one of the Lords beating gently upon the Pa●ement with his staff perceived a hollow sound and thereupon ordering the stones and earth to be removed they discovered a descent into a Vault where two Coffins were laid near one another the one very large of an antique form and the other little These they supposed to be the bodies of K. Hen. 8. and Qu. Jane Seymour his third wife as indeed they were The Velvet Palls that covered their Coffins seemed fresh tho they had laid there above 100 years The Lords agreeing that the Kings body should be in the said Vault inter'd being about the middle of the Choir over against the eleventh stall upon the Soveraigns side they gave order to have the Kings name and year he died cut in lead which whilst the Work-men were about the Lords went out and gave Puddifant the Sexton order to lock the Chappel door and not suffer any to stay therein till farther notice The Sexton did his best to clear the Chappel nevertheless Isaac the Sextons man said that a Foot Soldier had hid himself so as he was not discern'd and being greedy of prey crept into the Vault and cut so much of the Velvet Pall that covered the great body as he judged would hardly be missed and wimbled also a hole thro the said Coffin that was largest probably fancying that there was something well worth his adventure The Sexton at his opening the door espied the sacrilegious person who being searched a bone was found about him with which he said he would ha●t a knife The Governour being therefore informed of he gave him his reward and the Lords and others present were convinc'd that a real body was in the said great Coffin which some before had scrupled The girdle or circumscription of capital letters of lead put about the Kings Coffin had only these words King Charles 1648. The Kings body was then brought from his Bed-chamber down into S. George's Hall whence after a little stay it was with a slow and solemn pace much sorrow in most faces being then discernable carried by Gentlemen of quality in mourning The Noblemen in mouring also held up the Pall and the Governour with several Gentlemen and Officers and Attendants came after It was then observed that at such time as the Kings body was brought out from S. George's Hall the sky was serene and clear but presently it began to snow and the snow fell so fast that by that time the corps came to the west end of the royal Chappel the black velvet Pall was all white the colour of innocency being thick covered over with snow The Body being by the Bearers set down near the place of burial the Bishop of London stood ready with the Service book in his hands to have performed his last duty to the K. his Master according to the order and form of burial of the Dead set forth in the book of Common Prayer which the Lords likewise desired but would not be suffer'd by Col. Whitchcot the Governour of the Castle by reason of the Directory to which said he he and others were to be conformable Thus went the White King to his grave in the 48 year of his age and 22 year and 10 month of his Reign To let pass Merlins Prophecy which some allude to the White Sattin his Maj. wore when he was crowned in Westm Abbey former Kings having on purple Robes at their Coronation I shall conclude this Narrative with the Kings own excellent expression running thus Crownes and Kingdoms are not so valuable as my honor and reputation Those must have a period with my life but these survive to a glorious kind of immortality when I am dead and gone a good name being the embalming of Princes and a sweet consecrating of them to an eternity of love and gratitude amongst posterity MARTIN LLEWELLIN Lluellyn or Lluelyn so many ways I find him written the seventh son without any daughter between of Mart.

Mary the Virgin but one of the Commissioners appointed by the King for regulating the University of Oxon in which office he shew'd himself active enough In 1664 he left the University and setling with his wife and family in a market Town in Bucks called Great Wycombe practised his faculty there was made a Justice of the Peace for that County and in 1671 was elected Mayor of that Corporation in which offices he behaved himself severe against the Phanaticks He hath written Men-miracles A Poem Printed 1656. in oct Divers Poems Printed 1656. in oct Satyrs Printed 1656. in oct Elegies Printed 1656. in oct Divine Poems Printed 1656. in oct Among his Elegies is one upon Rob.

K. Jam. 2 did confer upon him the Bishoprick of Oxon void by the death of Dr. Sam. Parker an act so egregiously resented by the true sons of the Church of England that they look'd upon it as a matter to bring their Church into contempt by throwing upon it such an obscure person to be a father as he had before two or more c. without any regard had to merit He was consecrated at Lambeth by the Archb. of Canterbury Bishops of Chichester and Chester on the seventh of Octob. 1688 but when he came into these parts to see and take possession of his house at Cudesden the Dean and Canons of Ch.
