WOYTHY SIR OUt of the long and continuall love and affection and also in respect of your continuall expressions of kindnesse and curtesie extended unto me where by you have obliged me unto a necessary gratitude I could not neglect my service unto you whereby you may aswell taste of our joy and comfort as you have formerly understood of our jealousies and fears justly conceived in these parts occasioned here amongst us by reason of his Majesties absence and alienation from the Honourable House of Parliament and by reason of his abode amongst us here in these Northerne parts For since his Majesties residence amongst us we have had continuall rumours of Civill Warres in this Kingdome no discourse almost stirring but what hath possest the Subjects hearts with feare and terror by reason of the continuall expectation of blood and mischief But now we hope all things are at the worst and that the blessed Sun of peace and prosperitie which hath long slept under a discontented cloud will break forth and with its happy and cheerefull beams warm the benummed estate of this distracted State and Kingdome I may indeed truly call it distracted and distempered when a generall malady had over-run and over-spread the whole body so that one continuall grief had disquieted the Head and all the members both Head and members suffering a most grievous and terrible maladie which daily did beget in all true hearts the fear and expectation of ruine and destruction which must of necessitie ensue the disagreement of the King and Parliament I doubt not but you have heard of the Declarations which have been published on both sides both by his Majestie and the Houses of Parliament which have taken but small effect so that the maladie of this Kingdome yet remains unrelieved Upon the seventh of June last since His Majestie gave answer unto the last Declaration of the House of Parliament his Majestie at an Assembly of the Peers and Councell which were then present with him at York declared his last intentions unto them and resolved them that this his last and absolute determination was to set up his Standard and that since he could not win and perswade the Houses of Parliament to consent unto his desires that he would defend himself by his sword and by that meanes secure his Crown and Royall prerogatives which he said he well understood they had an aim and intention to abridge and deprive him of This Resolution was diversly received and entertained among the Nobles some being resolute to hazard all both their persons lives and fortunes in this His Majesties Resolution and to endeavour by all means to justifie his undertakings Others upon more mature consultation and deliberation were of another mind and thought that by this meanes they could not acquit themselves of the fidelitie imposed upon them for the generall good and benefit of the whole Kingdome So that induced by these and other faithfull and mature considerations as in duty and by oath they stood bound they did apply themselves to divert his Majesty from this his intention and determination whereby his Majesty did perceive his Majesty might bring a ruine unto this Nation and also that it was impossible by this meanes to effect his determined purpose without the danger and losse of those who were most neere and deare unto him and in whose fidelity his Majesty did repose his trust and confidence and also out of their loyaltie and care informed his Majesty that they feared that those who had possessed his Majesties eares and breast with this evill and destructive counsell they did very much feare would at the time of most hazard and danger be backward and unwilling to put his will in execution These perswasive reasons could not alter his Majesties resolution for the present but he seemed to be somewhat displeased with their advise Whereupon some of his counsell whose hearts and integritie stood well affected to the State left his Majestie viz. the Earle of Dorset the Earle of Salisbury the Earle of Clare with one Lord more whose name for the present I canot remember took their leave and would have come for London Afterwards Sir John Banks endevored to perswade His Majestie to make His return to London Which at first seemed as pleasing to his Majestie as to the Subject desirous of this most happy union and it received such welcome entertainment with His Majestie that he was graciously pleased to prepare himself for London This was most welcome newes and gave a generall and ample satisfaction to all but those whose aimes are the difference between His Majestie and the loyall Subject Much joy was at the first conceived and expressed and and in this joy and comfort the night was spent But joy and grief have their continual succession and seldome is joy of a long continuance for now when the morning vvas come and the accomplishment of their conceived joy vvas expected a suddain cloud overspread their cheerfull breasts and a new discontent vvas spread through those parts for His Majesties resolution vvas quite altered from what he had over night determined which did cause a generall sorrow in all true hearts the cause of this so suddain change is not as yet made known but t is supposed that His Majestie was moved thus so suddainly to alter his resolution by the wicked advice of some malignant and dangerous spirits who are near His Majesties person Thus have I enformed you of the last proceedings that have happened amongst us God in his good time settle all things that this Nation again may flourish So I humbly take my leave and rest Your faithfull Friend to serve you THOMAS ANDREWS FINIS
