alone and yet still but one It is thy doing that Prudence the chiefe head and governour of vertues the rule and direction of all well doings and prescribing to every vertuous action the manner order and course of doing well doth so knit and joyne together all morall vertues as that by thy secret influence they all may be found joyntly in all wise Subjects and in every one particularly with one heart to performe that duty which both yeeldeth right to the King and maintaineth peace and love among men Siquidem communis vitae societas in unione consistit And seeing it hath pleased his Majesty King Iames by publique Proclamation to assume the name and stile of King of Great Britaine jure haereditario it is meet that all loving Subjects not only acknowledge the clearenesse of his right but joyfully applaud and chearfully follow him herein now in our gracious K. Charles his reign lest murmuring they like evill and base minded souldiers follow their Emperour with an evill will according to that saying Malus miles imperatorem sequitur gemens We see some noble men yea and the gentlemen in our State daily to purchase and unite Land to Land and Lordship upon Lordship and to seek by all meanes to shake off the Tenure in Capite and to hold all their Lands in some other more free Tenure And it cannot be denyed that to all their severall Courts all Tenants and freeholders willingly performe their severall services or else are fined by the Lord of the Mannor or by his Steward And may the inferiour Lord expect more homage from a Tenant then a King require both of Lords and Tenants all Subjects to him and holding all they have from by and under him Pacis interest omnem potestatem ad unum referri But all gain-sayers and murmurers qui contumaciam potius cum pernicie quam â—bsequium cum securitate malunt are not unlike Mesech and Kedar spoken of in the Psalme in respect of whom the good King complained to God and to himselfe saying Woe that I dwell with Mesech and Kedar I labour for peace and they prepare them to battell I study union and they strive to make division Non placeo concordiae author said that good Valerius But alas why should Ephraim beare evill will to Iuda or Iuda vexe Ephraim fratres enim sumus should not they rather both together united now into the name of Britaines as into the name of the beloved Israel of God Esay 11. Flee upon the shoulders of the Philistines and make spoile of their enemies so that the Idumites Moabites and Ammonites even all their enemies might be subdued unto them Duo enim sunt quibus omnis respub servatur in hostes fortitudo domi concordia And verily the uniting the two Kingdomes into the name of Britaine is not unlike Esay 21 that chariot drawne with two horsemen mentioned in Esay at sight whereof the watchman cryed Babilon is fallen Babilon is fallen and all the images of her Gods are smitten downe to the ground For so except we will smother the childe of Vnion in his first birth both English and Scottish will soone heare him sound aloude into the whole world that all great Britaine is like Ierusalem which is as a City at unity within it selfe and Babilon even division disorder discord and confusion are confounded and overthrowne and what King Egbert did write in Sand King Iames of blessed memory and our gracious King Charles hath blotted out and troden under foot all the dishonour thereof and engraven as in a marble Stone the perpetuall honour of great Britaine by Royall restitution This verily commeth of the Lord of hosts which worketh with wonderfull wisdome and bringeth excellent things to passe Alexander asked King Porus his captive how hee would be entertained and Porus answered like a King Alexander demandeth againe Porus answereth againe in Kingly manner Alexander asketh what else Porus answereth nothing else for in this kingly maner every thing else is contained And though God be praised for it the cause be not between English and Scottish in Conquest and captivity as between Alexander and Porus but two famous Kingdomes in right of blood under one mighty Monarch yet our great Alexander in his high wisdome considering how these two might best be governed hath in his owne royall heart best resolved it namely by uniting them into one Monarchy into one government and into one name and if any demand how else verily he must be answered no way else for in this union whatsoever else is contained Nam in istoc sunt omnia even the Stoickes who I think neither were in jest nor arrogantly conceited contained under Prudence both justice and fortitude and temperance and whatsoever vertue else accounting also him who was perfectly wise an Orator a Poet a Rich man a very King and an Emperour All blessings and graces may be thought attendants and companions to union who alone knoweth how to order all things in government and is a princely commander of Subjects obedience and subduer of gain-sayers ordering unruly affections bridling untamed lusts restraining swelling pride composing rebellious appetites determining all doubts and rights within the compasse of her judgement and yet giving to every one his due by her discretion And therefore is like the Sun in the middest of heaven among the Stars and as the Stars take light of the Sun so also blessings of Weale publique proceed from this sacred and thrice happy union into the name of great Britaine whose glorious light shineth to all and every one hath comfort thereby It is also not unlike the Soul in the Body of man for in the whole common Weale it is wholly and in every part thereof whether it be of English or Scottish intire Tota in toto tota in qualibet parte As a shining light it sheweth a way for common good and as a reasonable soule giveth understanding to the blindest body to see the full fruition of all worldly happinesse let no man shut his eyes against the Sunne nor refuse a living Soule for his Carcasse If I could express the image of this union in lively colors I would surely make her a goddess faire beautifull having a garland and crown of all blessings upon her head and sitting in a Chaire of State with all good fortunes vertues and graces attending her and as a goddesse in triumphant chariot going into the capitol or temple of mighty Iupiter where also the Poets have found her but called by another name even Pallas who is also named Monas that is Vnity because having one only parent she resideth in Iupiters braine even in the chiefe seat of his wisdome where all the Muses are her companions so called Musae quasi {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} that is altogether in one where all the Graces goe hand in hand congratulating to Vnion their mutuall society where all vertue and knowledge are neare of affinity but Iustice

English fashion eveâ—â—gainst their former cuâ—tomes and conditions â—t is then a matter not only of utility and neâ—essity but also of reaâ—on and justice that a King in right of blood â—olding two Kingâ—omes or States doe â—nite contract them â—nto one name and naâ—ure specially Kingdomes of one continent and which in ancient times were but one till ambition and contention divided them And this maâ— stand for answer to the Objectors first main head of matter of Estaâ—â— inward Now where it is faâ—ther alleaged that the alteration of the namâ— of the King doth inâ—vitably and infalliblâ— draw on an erection oâ— a new Kingdome and dissolution and extinguishment of the olde herein verily I think the matter is much mistaken for the change oâ—â—â—me is not so rightly ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ be tearmed alteration ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ new erection as reâ—â—â—tution and reparation â—oth of name and hoâ—or for divers his â—ajesties most noble â—ogenitors have hereâ—â—fore been entituled as â—hronicles tell us

And before the conquest of tâ— Saxons it is certaiâ— that the whole I le wâ— called by the name ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ Britain But Saxons eâ—tring at disadvantageâ— that mighty Natioâ— consumed by death aâ— famine

â—ught I understand the matter is not so dâ—â—ficult nor of that incoâ—â—venience and dangeâ— but may with muâ— ease and safety be doâ— with salvo jure or othâ— reservation and explâ—â—nation as the wise anâ— learned in the lawâ— can at large devise when they list five noâ— excogitent sive antiqâ— restituant But for example ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ bring the uniting ã€ˆâ—Šã€‰ Dane-Lex and Merciâ— Lex by Edward

omnium vita moâ—â—ratori est proposita as eâ—â—sily bee cleared and â—â—voided as it was whâ— the principality aâ— Country of Wales wâ— by Parliament incorpâ—â—rated and united unâ— the Kingdome of
