An Order was made upon the motion of the Earle of Pembrooke That all Papists and such as had ●orne Armes against the Parliament should depart the Lines of Communication and 20. miles further except such as should get Tickets from the Committee at Goldsmiths Hall for to stay and attend their Compositions and not to returne againe within 2. months Which very day the said Earle of Pemb●ookes house at wilton neere Salisbury was burnt down to the ground whereby it is supposed he lost above 20000. l. A just judgement of God on so malicious a person 16. The money for the treacherous Scots being 36 cart loads martched out of London 19. The Citie Petition presented and high Resolutions were pitched upon for obtaining a speedy and positive Answer from the Parl. but they received onely thanks for their Desires and of a sudden the Independent Horse of Sir The Fairfax his Army were drawn neerer London to keep the citizens in awe 20. His Majesty dispatcht his 12. most gracious Message to the great men at Westminst wherein he proposed and desired rgaine to come to London or any of his Houses thereabouts upon the publique faith and security of his two Houses of Parl. and the Scottish Commissioners that he might be there with honour freedome and safety c. 28. But instead of returning him an Answer the Higher House voted That there might not be any further personall Treaty upon the Propositions To which the Commons assented and added a further vote That the King comming to Holmby house the Scottish Army gone out of this Kingdome the two Houses of Parliament will then joyne with our Brethren of Scotland in all possible meanes to perswade the King to passe the Propositions and if he refuse that then the Houses will doe nothing that may break the union and affection of the two Kingdomes but to preserve the same January 9. And now they perceive the game is done they begin to share the stakes for this day it was Ordered that the Lord Say should have 10000. l. Sir Rowland Wandesford 5000. l. Sir Benjamin Rudyard 6000. l. Master Bacon 3000 l. Just 24000. l. in one day 13. Went those Lords and Commons from London who were appointed by the Parl. to receive His Majesty from the hands of the treacherous Scots and attend Him to Holmby This night they lay at Dunstable a very fit place for them if you mark it 18 19. The House of Commons passed severall Votes for allowances to be given to such of themselves as could pretend to have sustained any losses or sufferings in the yeare 3 Caroli and particularly 1. To the Earle of Northumberland 10000 Master Vassall 10000 Master Selden 5000 Sir John Eliots children 5000 Sir Will. Strodes poore kindred 5000 Master Bensamin Valentine 5000 M. Peter Hamond's successors 5000 M. Walter Long 5000 Sir Miles Hubbard 5000 M. John Hampdens children 5000 Denzill Hollis Esq 5000 In tote 65000. l. Besides 2000. l. to the Trustees for the sale of Bishops Lands and many hundreds more to petty Petitioners 65000. and 24000. l. is 89000. l. a small pittance not worth the mentioning yet a lesse summe would have stopt a great deale of clamour made at Westminster hall gates by a number of poore women and others who have lost their husbands and friends in their service and yet are suffered to starve in the streets for want of bread whilst these men share the spoile amongst themselves yea no lesse then 89000. l. in three dayes and yet see what care they afterwards took for the good of the Kingdome in desiring His majesties Keepers at Holmby to be sparing in their expences who out of their providence for preserving the wealth of the Kingdome reduced their Prisoner to one meale a day 20. The totall charged upon the Excise of the Kingdome was cast up and reported to the House to be but 390000. l. Neverthelesse it hath plainly been proved in a printed book entituled Londons Accompt that there must needs be above 4000000. remaining in the Accomptants hands of the Excize onely of the city of London and its Weekly Bils And what proportion the Excize of the rest of the Kingdome of England and Dominion of Wales may beare thereunto let all honest men judge 21. Doctor Hudson onely for conducting His maj into the Scottish Army after the Parliament had denyed Him accesse to London or any other of His Houses being formerly apprehended at Yorke and brought up to London was committed Close Prisoner to the Tower for Treason and Ordered that none should speak with Him but in the presence of His Keeper Such are the Com●orts and such the Rewards of Obedience and Loyalty 30. The Perfidious Scots surrendred up New castle to the Parliament Presented a Declaration to His Majesty and the Commissioners sent from London received His Majesty Prisoner and tooke the Charge of him February 3. The last 100000. l. was paid to the Treacherous Scots The House of Lords published a Declaration wherein they set forth that the Compositions made at Goldsmiths Hall were not by Ordinance and so the Sequestrators in the Countries not bound to observe them c. The House you know who we meane Ordered that His Majesties Plate which was appropriated to an holy use and stood usually upon the Communion Table and in the Vestry at White-hall Chappell should be melted for the service of the State Now let all Moderate men determine whether this was done out of contempt to His Majestie and the Church or for meere necessity the Common-Stock being so lately drained of 89000. l. But we have heard a story of a Taylor who had gotten such a habit of theeveing that rather then he would forget the main Principall of his profession he would pilfer the very Rushes where he came to keep his Lime-twiggs in Action The similie may hold save only in this The one stitches together the other rents in peeces The same day the Lord of Ormond sent a Letter directed to Sir Thomas Wharton and Major Salloway with propositions therein enclosed for the surrender of Dublin to the Parliament 7. the House of Lords were this day perswaded by the Commons to passe a Declaration to recall their former Declaration published against the power of the Committee at Goldsmiths-Hall and to joyne with them in another of their drawing up for the establishing of that Committee c. 9. Some of the London Apprentices Petitioned the Lords for a Play day once a Moneth 10. Ordered that the Library of the late Arch Bishop of canterbury should be imployed and disposed for the service of the University of Cambridge 11. The Treacherous Army of the Scots martched over Tweed at Kelsey and Barwick 12. Barwick quitted and the Garrison dismantled 15. A great Tumult in Smithfield The Excise house pulled downe and burnt the bookes torne in peeces and as the Clerkes say 80. l. in money scattered but we heare not of a penny that was found
Vaughan fell on a party of the Parl. neare Welch Poole Commanded by S. John Price killed some wounded others took divers Prisoners and many Horses and Armes 28. Master Blakes house at Pinnell neare Calne in Wiltshire taken by a party of the Lord Gorings forces 31. The Members at VVestminster voted Sir Thomas Fairfax to be their new Generall cashiering the E. of Essex with whom July 12. 1642 they had sworn to live and die January 1. Young Hotham was beheaded on Tower-hill 2. Sir John Hotham his father was likewise beheaded by Martiall Law Here the Reader may take notice of a speciall marke of Gods judgement for Apr. 23. 1642. when old Hotham denyed His Maj. admittance into Hull he held up his hands and prayed God never to prosper him or his posterity if he were not His Majesties loyall Subject And now see both father and sonne adjudged by their fellow-members and condemned by their owne beloved Martiall Law for intending to deliver up Hull to His Majesty The same day the Lord Astley took Lypyate house in Gloucestershire Sir Marmaduke Langdale totally routed Col. Ludlowes Regiment of horse at Salisbury 10. The Lord Archbishop of Canturbury was beheaded on Tower-hill It would be too long here where we aime at Brevitie to set downe the particulars of his Imprisoment the preposterous proceedings against him in his Triall and his pious magnanimity at the time of his Death his Sermon on the Scaffold whereof here followeth a true Copie will satisfie the world that he dyed innocently and ●hich is more that His Majestie hath beene most unjustly accused of any inclination to Popery Good People THis is an uncomfortable time to preach yet I shall begin with a text of Scripture Heb. 12. 2. Let us run with patience that race which is set before us Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our Faith who for the joy that was set before him endured the Crosse despising the shame and is set downe at the right hand of the Throne of God I have been long in my Race and how I have looked to Jesus the author and finisher of my Faith Hee best knowes I am now come to the end of my Race and here I find the Crosse a death of shame but the shame must be despised or no comming to the right hand of God Jesus despised the shame for me and God forbid but I should despise the shame for Him I am going a pace as you see towards the Red Sea and my feet are now upon the very brinke of it an Argument I hope that God is bringing me to the Land of promise for that was the way through which he led his People But before they came to it Hee instituted a Passeover for them a Lamb it was but it must be eaten with sowre Hearbs I shall obey and labour to digest the sow●e Hearbs as well as the Lamb. And I shall remember it is the Lords Passeover I shall not thinke of the Hearbs nor be angry with the hand which gathereth them but looke up only to him who instituted that and gov●rnes these For men can have no more power over men then what is given them from above I am not in love with this passage through the Red Sea for I have the w●aknesse and infirmities of flesh and blood pl●ntifully in me And I have prayed with my Saviour ut trans●●et Cal●x iste that this Cup of red wine might pass● from me But if not Gods will not mine be done an● I shall most willingly drinke of this Cup as deep as he pleases and enter this Sea yea and passe through it in the way that he shall lead me But I would have it remembred Good people that when Gods Servants were in this boysterous Sea and Aaron among them the Aegyptians which persecuted them and did in a manner drive them into the Sea were drowned in the same waters while they were in pursuit of them I know my God whom I serve is as able to deliver me from this Sea of Blood as he was to deliver the three Children from the Furnace and I most humbly thank my Saviour for it my Resolution is now as theirs was then They would not worship the image the King had set up nor will I the imaginations which the people are setting up nor will I forsake the Temple and the truth of God to follow the bleating of Jeroboams Calfe in Dan and in Bethell And as for this people they are at this day miserably missed God of his mercy open their Eyes that they may see the right way for at this day the blind lead the blind and if they goe on both will certainly fall into the ditch For my selfe I am and acknowledge it in all humility a most grievous sinner many wayes by thought word and deed and I cannot doubt but that God hath mercy in store for me a poore penitent as well as for other sinners I have now upon this sad occasion ransacked every corner of my heart and yet I thanke God I have not found among the many any one sin which deserves death by any knowne Law of this Kingdome And yet hereby I charge nothing upon my Judges for if they proceed upon proofe by valuable witnesses I or any other innocent may be justly condemned And I thank God though the weight of the sentence lie heavy upon me I am as quiet within as ever I wa in my life And though I am not only the first Arch-Bishop but the first man that ever dyed by an Ordinance of Parliament yet some of my Predecessours have gone this way though not by this meanes For Elphegus was hurried away and lost his head by the Danes and Symon Sudbury in the fury of Wat Tyler and his fellowes Before these Saint John Baptist had his head danced off by a lewd woman and Saint Cyprian Arch-Bishop of Carthage submitted his head to a persecuting sword Many Examples great and good and they teach me patience for I hope my Cause in Heaven will looke of another dye then the colour that is put upon it here And some comfort it is to me not only that I goe the way of these great men in their severall generations but also that my Charge as soule as t is made looks like that of the Jewes against Saint Paul Acts 25. 3. For he was accused for the Law and the Temple i. e. Religion And like that of Saint Steven Acts 6. 14. for breaking the Ordinances which Moses gave i. e. Law and Religion the holy place and the Temple verse 13. But you will say doe I then compare my selfe with the integrity of Saint Paul and Steven No farre be that from me I onely raise a comfort to my selfe that these great Saints and servants of God were laid at in their times as I am now And it is memorable that Saint Paul who helped on this Accusation against Saint Steven did after fall under the very same himselfe Yea but here
