ON Tuesday May the 29. His Majesty made his Entrance into the City of London and it is very remarkeable that Tuesdays are with some Rubrick at least to be observed in our Almanacks It was on a Tuesday that my late Lord King Charls Father to this present King was beheaded It was on a Tuesd●y that this King was born It was on a Tuesday that he received the intelligence at Brussels that a way was made for his inauguration in England It was on a Tuesday that he came from Brussells to Breda It was on a Tuesday he was Proclaimed King And it was on a Tuesday that he came unto London The manner and gallant Equipage whereof is the present subject of this discourse The King on Monday having bin most Honourably received by the most Illustrious the Lady Mary Countesse Dowager of Richmond did on Tuesday prepare himselfe himselfe for London He had before at his first Landing bin nobly entertain'd by the Mayors of Dover and Canterbury where finding with what a flame of Love and Duty he was expected and attended He made more hast to his City of London there was never seen a more gallant train of the Nobility and Gentry of England then at this present and every one striving to exceed another at much in loyalty as in Gallantry the wayes on both sides were hedged with people and the trees were filled with them to behold his Majesty as he Passed by the shouts and acclamations were loud and universal Comming to Dartfort there were a hundred maids arrayed all in white who strowed the way with Lillies and Roses before him which sweet ceremonies were continued by these untill he came to his pallace at White-hall the streets as he passed all along were railed in It was Ordered that no Muskets should be discharged to the end that the Traytors if any should be so barbarous as to make a desperate shot might more readily be discovered but had the Muskets of the City and the Army made never so many Volleys the shouts and the Acclamations of the many thousands that perpetually cryed God save the King were so loud that they would even have deafned the noyse of the Guns the King was on Horse-back in a sad colourd Suit and a Red Feather round about his Hat On the right hand of him rode the Duke of Yorke and on the left hand the Duke of Glocester a little before him rode his Excellence the Lord Generall Monk bare-headed and the Marquesse of Newcastle Master of the Horse and a little before them were the Lord Mayor and his Brethren the Aldermen and many other Citizens most richly habited and behind there rode bare-headed my Lord Viscount Mordant my Lord the Earle of Northampton the Earle of Northumberlands and my Lord Jocelin his Son and a numerous and glorious company of the Nobility and Gentry In this stately Equipage he came to Whitehall about sixe of the Clock in the evening where Long may he live to Reigne over us and let all the people say Amen Englands Gratulation Assist me all the Nine helpe me to sing The glorious praises of great Charls our King whom heaven hath try'd and brought out of the fire And layd him low to raise him up the higher That to the wondring world he is become The Grace and Glory of all Christendome 'T is he repaires our Breaches and restores Our Land to safty and doth heale our sores 'T is he that strokes our griefs and wipes our eyes Sets us in order and doth make us wise For ne'r was Nation so before misled To Court the Tayle and make the Rump their head No more wee now shall rayle at Noble Blood No more shall rich men for their little good Be look 't upon as guilty nor vile spyes Enjoy the lust of their so murdring eyes Men shall put off their Iron hands and hearts The times forget their old malitious arts With this new minute and no print remain Of what was thought the former ages stain where are our Saints now that would fain be known To have no other holiday but their own Where are our cruell Regicids and all The petulent Crew wee Anabaptists call Whose wild Religion and whose zeale doth border On Faction Ruine Falshood and disorder Whose Gospell speaks It is too hard a thing At once to fear God and obey the King And from their Bibles doe expunge that text As too obliging or too much perplext Behold the hour's at hand that shall declare What men of conscience and what Saints they are That still pursue Oh most unhumane wrongs The Lords Anoynted with their threatning tongus As if the Father slain they had not done Enough unlesse they massacred the Sonne This to prevent the King himselfe druws nigh Full of his cause his eye with Majesty His brow with thunders arm'd and on each hand The youth of Heaven in files unnumbred stand His glorious guard for the world be 't known That heaven is pleased to make this cause his own For who the King affront the like would do To th' King of Kings could they come at him too And as the Sun when his absented light Approacheth neerer day doth smile outright And the thick Vapours of the night do fly In guilty tumults from his searching eye So now the King in person hath begun To shew himself like the Meridian sun To shine in all his glories and dispence Throughout his Isle his powerful influence The clouds of bold Rebellion the false light Of falser zeal and meteors of the night The sullen Vapours and the mists that made A great confussion in so great a shade Shall wast before him as he comes our states Extreams to temper for it pleased the fat es Though others labourd in the work yet none Should heal our griefes but who our hearts do own Nor shall this Isle regaine her antient worth But by that monarch which this Isle brought forth And fame no sooner to our ears did bring The joyful story of the landed King But all the Lords and Gentry of the land Made hast to waite upon his high command So full their trayn so gallant their array As if their splendour would outshine the day There was the Noble General with whom The best of all his men of armes did come And many able Citizens were sent To make the show seem mo●e magnificent Who all so soon as they the King displaid Who can imagin what a shout they made The glitering of their cloaths out vy'd the suns Hats in the Ayre flew up Guns roard to Guns trumpets deafned trumpets who 'd have thought These ere in arms ' gainst each other had fought Th' outlandishmen that markd it and stood by In our behalf all out aloud did cry Was never Nation now more blest then wee Nor ever monarch more admir'd then he Invirond thus and come to the Cities gate He was received in all high pomp and State By the Lord Mayor and his brethren who Were proudly glad their Noble Prince to view How great will be our growing joyes we may Presume will crown his Coronation day Which to his matchless merit will be more Then ever King of Evgland had before At which since heaven earth with shouts do ring Let altogether saye God save the King FINIS
