Exceeding joyfull Newes from the Earle of WARVVICKE IT is not unknowne to the subjects of England the great Plots and wicked Designes which the Papists or rather the party which we now call Malignants have often and sundry times endeavoured to bring this Land to perpetuall ruine and destruction neither can it bee unknowne to the whole world how powerfull and active the wicked Counsellers about his Royall Majesty have been both before and since the Parliament now assembled in seeking to destroy and extinguish the true Protestant Profession the lawes of the Land and the Liberty of the Subject and have also wrought many traiterous and damnable designes against the Parliament But by the great care of the omnipotent God of heaven they have been discovered taking no effect praised bee his name for it And seeing they could not prevaile in these their damnable and Hell-bred attempts they prevailed so farre with his Royall Majesty that they drew his Highnesse from his Parliament to divers adjacent places thereabouts and after to the Northerne parts where in his name they publish divers scandalous and ignominious speeches against the Parliament to the great danger not onely of the disturbance but even of the subversion of the originall Constitution and Fra●● of this Kingdome But they not prevailing in all these attempts which they have plotted against the Parliament they thought it a businesse very convenient for them to bring their projects more to perfection to desire his Majesty to send command to the Earle of Warwicke for to resigne his place to Sir Iohn Pennington At which time there was a disrovery of a great mischiefe that had like to have happened upon the discharging him of his place Sir Iohn Pennington being then in the Downes with a great company expecting to have the ships delivered up unto him but t was prevented His Majesty through the instigation of wicked Counsell hath put the Earle of Pembroke Earle of Essex Earle of Holland and the Lord Fielding out of their places of Honour for no other cause but discharging their consciences in Parliament being Members of the said House and likewise the Earle of Northumberland and his Majesty hath displaced of high Admirall a man so eminent in all qualifications of honour and safetie so necessary for these times All which were done by the meanes of evill Counsell being a dangerous preparative to future Confusions Both Houses having taken into consideration the displacing of these persons especially the Earle of Northumberland cannot thinke the Kingdome to bee in safety till they have done their utmost in all fit waies till that office be restored whereby the Commanders of the ships which are the walls of the Kingdome may againe be setled in charge of that noble Lord. The Honourable House of Peeres taking into serious consideration the great distempers of this Kingdome and the great distresse and danger the Kingdome of Ireland was in unlesse timely remedy be forthwith prepared and made ready But for the prevention whereof they ordered and resolved at a Conference to make this insuing Declaration That they having taken into consideration the weighty affaires of both Kingdomes thought it very requisite and necessary that the Earle of Leicester should be forthwith dispatched for Ireland declaring and laying open the great necessity and want of him in that distressed Kingdome To which Mr. Pym answered that he was very willing to goe but that many we●ghty occasions hindered him and at the same time the Earle of Leicester seconded him Mr. Pym presented to the House of Peeres divers Propositions concerning that motion which was to this effect That whereas their Lordships were desirous that he should forthwith goe for Ireland he was very willing if so be provision were in readinesse he demanding a great sum of money at his first setting forth But it was referred to a Committee for the consideration ●hereof To the Kings most excellent Majesty The humble Petition of the Lords and Commons in Parliament assembled May it please your Majesty ALthough wee your Majesties most humble and faithfull Subjects the Lords and Commons in Parliament assembled have been very unhappy in many former Petitions and Supplications to your Majesty wherein we have represented our most dutifull affections in advising and desiring those things which wee held most necessary for the preservation of Gods true Religion your Majesties safety and honour and the peace of the Kingdome And with much sorrow doe perceive that your Majesty incenc'd by many false calumnies and slanders doth continue to raise forces against us and your other peaceable and loyall Subjects and to make great preparations for warre both in the Kingdome and from beyond the Seas And by armes and violence to over-rule the judgement and advice of your great Councell and by force to determine questions there depending concerning the government and liberty of the Kingdome yet such is our earnest desire of discharging our duty to your Majesty and the Kingdome to preserve the peace thereof and to prevent the miseries of civill warre amongst your subjects That no●withstanding we hold our selves bound to use all the means and power which by the Lawes and Constitutions of this Kingdome wee are trusted with for defence and protection thereof and of the Subjects from force and violence We doe in this our humble and loyall Petition prostrate our selves at your Majesties feet beseeching your Majesty that you will be pleased to forbeare and remove all preparations and actions of warre particularly the Forces from about Hull from Newcastle Tynmouth Lincoln and Lincolnshire and all other places And that your Majesty will recall the Commissions of

punish all tumults and seditious actions speeches and writings which may give your Majesty just cause of distaste or apprehension of danger That your Majesty will leave Delinquents to the due course of Justice And that nothing done or spoken in Parliament or by any person in pursuance of the commands and directions of both Houses of Parliament be questioned any where but in Parliament And we for our parts shall bee ready to lay downe all those preparations which we have bin forced to make for our defence And for the Towne of Hull and the Ordinance concerning the Militia as wee have in both these particulars onely sought the preservation of the peace of the Kingdome and the defence of the Parliament from force and violence So wee shall willingly leave the Towne of Hull in the state it was before Sir Iohn Hotham drew any Forces into it delivering your Majesties Magazine into your Tower of London And suppressing whatsoever hath been disposed by us for the service of the Kingdome Wee shall bee ready to settle the Militia by a Bill in such a way as shall bee honourable and safe for your Majesty most agreeable to the duty of Parliament and effectuall for the good of the Kingdome That the strength thereof be not imployed against it selfe and that which ought to be for our security applied to our destruction And that the Parliament and those who professe and desire still to preserve the Protestant Religion both in this Realme and in Iceland may not bee left naked and indefensible to the mischeivous designes and cruell attempts of those who are the profest and confederated enemies thereof in your Majesties Dominions and other Neighbour-Nations To which if your Majesties courses and counsels shall from hence-forth concure Wee doubt not but we shall quickly
