His Majestie 's Most Gracious SPEECH TO BOTH HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT The Eighteenth Day of January 1666. C R DIEV ET MON DROIT HONI SOIT QVI MAL Y PENSE In the SAVOY Printed by the Assigns of John Bill and Christopher Barker His Majesties Printers 1666. CVM PRIVILEGIO His MAJESTIE' 's most Gracious Speech to both Houses of Parliament My Lords and Gentlemen I Have now Passed your Bills and I was in good hope to have had other Bills ready to Pass too I cannot forget That within few days after your coming together in September both Houses presented Me with their Vote and Declaration That they would give Me a Supply proportionable to My Occasions and the Confidence of this made Me anticipate that small part of My Revenue which was unanticipated for the Payment of the Seamen and My Credit hath gone farther then I had reason to think it would but 't is now at an end This is the first day I have heard of any Money towards a Supply being the 18. of January and what this will amount to God knows And what time I have to make such Preparations as are necessary to meet three such Enemies as I have you can well enough judge And I must tell you what Discourses soever are abroad I am not in any Treaty but by the grace of God I will not give over My self and You but will do what is in My power for the Defence of My self and You. 'T is high time for you to make good your Promise and 't is high time for you to be in the Countrey as well for the raising of Money as that the Lords Lieutenants and Deputy-Lieutenants may watch those seditious Spirits which are at work to disturb the Publick peace And therefore I am resolved to put an end to this Session on Monday next come sevennight before which time I pray let all things be made ready that I am to dispatch I am not willing to complain you have dealt unkindly with Me in a Bill I have now passed in which you have manifested a greater distrust of Me then I have deserved I do not pretend to be without infirmities but I have never broken My word with you and if I do not flatter My self the Nation never had less cause to complain of Grievances or the least Injustice or Oppression then it hath had in these Seven years it hath pleased God to restore Me to you I would be glad to be used accordingly FINIS
