JULY 18. A DIURNALL out of the NORTH OR The daily Occurrences of this Weeke with every particular Passage at YORKE and BEVERLEY unto this present 16. of Iuly 1642. THis day the King desired to see his Army knit in a Posture and rode thorough and about them three or foure times very gallantly mounted and Armed the entire Body still faced which way soever he rode or passed by them and stooping all their Colours together made a shoute of an houre long to Congratulate his Person the number and men both Commanders and private Soldiers very considerable however talkt on and slighted especially in their alacrity and forwardnesse to obey his Majestie though the middle sort of the Country at first seem'd to stand in a pause or cogitation what to resolve but now every day more and more come and send in supply of Men Horses money and provision the King hath wonne upon them so by his Protestations and disposition towards the Country There was certaine Carts of Provision intended out of Lincolnshire to Hull interposed others thinke rather betrayed willingly by those that had the Conduct to this side and the suggestion is not unlikely because the men are are thankt and ●is very credible the Common people of that Country doe begin to deny what they were lately and breake forth into murmures But the wisdome of our Parliament having plac'd such faithfull and able men there who are of sufficient power and eminencie in the Countrey discharge their Imployment with a great deale of discretion and safety And if their wisdomes doe not suddenly contrive some supply for Hull it may fall into an unexpected strait for the Towne begins to fall into parties and combustion amongst themselves and Sir Iohn finds it a hard taske to make his Commands be obeyed pray God direct all things for the best There is privately come over divers Comman●●●s for Horse and some supply of money as appeared by a Moneths pay to the Souldery but how from whom is not knowne nor doe the Souldiers make it their enquiry suffices that they find it in their pockets the Prince whome the Cavaleers stile Captaine Stewart Commands as brave a Troope as ever came into Field and some two dayes before the remove to Beverley exercised them a● the Head himselfe and with a countenance behaviour so full of reservednesse and manhood that without flattery it much amazed the beholders and one might read their admiration in their looks The Knights and Gentry of his Troope presented him at his comming into the Field and as he lest his Caroach by him that had the right hand of the Troope with a very goodly white Horse trapped most richly to the ground with Velvet all studded with burning waves of Gold and a rich Tent for that dayes purpose he put on a very curious guilt Armor and straight way mounted his gallant Present with generall acclamations through the Field for though his Troope compleately consists but of Two Hundred Horse yet there was to wa●●e upon him an infinite number of young Spirits martially habited and bravely hors't and of all sorts at least 40000. who followed him to the Towne with continuall shouts There had like to have bene the next day though the occasion fell out that morne about some terme● of comparison a dangerous falling out between● one Colonell Vavasor a very goodly Gentleman and gratious with his Majesty and a Knight of the Princes Troope but his Majesty had timely notice of it sent for them and made a timely reconcilement and that which gave another faire interpretation of his disposition was concerning some Citizens or Tradesmen who it seemes compeld by distresse of Trade to leave London to see Yorke and having taken a Shop or two the Townesmen not onely grudg'd their long being there but one Evening sell upon them threw their wares about the Street and beate them saying Those that drove the King from LONDON should not drive him from YORKE This grew to such a strife that the Lord Major told it to his Majesty who was heard to say The meanest Subject or Citizen was as deare to him in their true affection as the greatest and that no good Subject should want his protection The Arch-Bishop doth feast his Majesty very sumptuously and keeps a little Court for the commanders and Souldiers the Earle of Lindsey is to have Ships to stop all provision for Hull by Sea and the mouth of Humber will be strongly guarded the Earle of Newcastle is very strange in the City and t was whispered that Mr. Iermyn the Lord Digby the Lord Foredich and some others were there privately but there was no such thing and those lying papers doe but abuse men indeed infect them and reflects upon the Iustice of the times but certaine it is there is a great expectation from beyond Sea and strong working for it Upon Tuesday morning by foure of the clocke his Majesty received a Packet from London and information of the Lord Majors commitment and the cause and at Dinner was very merry in his discourse of it to the Lords and they as free in delivering their opinions and however hee conceives it be seemes to beare a great mastery and temper over all passages and debatements Amongst other discourse it was told him of some Observations upon his Declarations and the Booke showed him by the Lord Keeper with a very blacke Character both of it and the Author being named a Lawyer of Grayes-Inne In the Afternoone the Lords had a Consultation about him and a Relation of one C. Babbam for writing foolish and seditious Papers and felling them to the Presse to live by them and there was a Message ordered from His Majesty to both Houses of PARLIAMENT for Commitment if to bee found and punishment Sir Francis Wortley and our new made Knight Duncombe are designed a thousand Men eight hundred Foot and two hundred Horse but whither they are to march or which way is not yet knowne but it is possible towards Mr. Hastings who sent a private Packet to the King who makes his party very strong and is like to doe much dammage to Leiceste●shire And the Lord Strange is as active in his way and puts Manchester to a muse but yet they hold him to it It is thought there is a black cloud teeming in Kent which may fall fatally if a North winde take it the Souldiers talke lo●●ly as if the time were come they were to be made for ever and the Parliament had provided all the Plate and money solely for them That night the King came to Beverly about the shutting up of the day there was sent in Fifty great Horses all of a darke Bay handsomely set out with ash-colour'd Ribbins every man very gentilely accoutred and armed they were presented to His Majesty but it is not knowne from whom certainly but supposed from the Earle of Newcastle by the bravery of their accoutrements His Majesty next morning went to the great Church heard Service and a Sermon by one of the Arch bishops Chaplaines his text was Heb. 10.24 Let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good workes and held the ballance of his text both equally and excellently though peradventure the Cavaleers did not carry much of it home Colonell Lunsford came the next day about two of the clocke in the Afternoone to Beverley had private speech for an houre with the King and returned by Post immediately to the Earle of Rivers who hath a Thousand men at command into the field and begins great things as is said and within an houre after another Post came from the Lord Strange and returned presently with a Warrant Signed for the putting out certaine Justices that opposes or are cold to his Commands As the King was Bowling there was scatter'd a paper with Verses very scandalous against Mr. PYM and shewed the King who having read them tore them in pieces and with a sad looke said such libellous Rascals hath broke the peace of the Kingdom and if Iustice did but lay hold of them peoples minds would be quickly calm'd he that showed them very likely looked for better thankes The Lords here sit as close as the Houses of Parliament doe at London let every good heart pray their consultations may meet in the Glory of God and this Kingdome FINIS LONDON Printed by T.
