the three Rydings upon three severall dayes but for what service we doe not know Sir you have here a large Narrative of the passages at this meeting what dangers this poore Countrey lyes under wee humbly referre it to you to judge not taking upon us to deliver any opinion The businesse lasted so long that it hindered us from giving a more speedy accompt Sir This is what at this time is sent from Your assured friends and servants Fer. Fairfax Hu. Cholmley Philip Stapleton He. Cholmley Yorke 13. May 1642. His Majesties Speech I Have cause of adding not altering what I meant to say When I gave out the Summons for this dayes Appearance I little thought of these Messengers or of such a Message as they brought the which because it confirmes Me in what I intend to speake and that I desire you should be truly informed of all passages between Me and the Parliament you shall here read First My Answer to the Declaration of both Houses concerning Hull The Answer of the Parliament to My two Messages concerning Hull together with My Reply to the same And My Message to both Houses declaring the Reasons why I refused to passe the Bill concerning the Militia All which being read his Majesty proceeded I Will make no paraphrases upon what ye have heard it more befitting a Lawyer then a King only this Observation Since Treason is countenanced so neer Me it is time to looke to My safety I avow it was part of My wonder That men whom I thought hertofore Discreet and Moderate should have undertaken this Imployment and that since they came I having delivered them the Answer you have heard and commanded them to returne Personally with it to the Parliament should have flatly disobeyed Me upon pretence of the Parliaments Command My end in telling you this is to warn you of them For since these men have brought Me such a Message and disobeyed so lawfull a Command I will not say what their intent of staying hereis only I bid you take heed not knowing what Doctrine of Disobedience they may preach to you under colour of obeying the Parliament Hitherto I have found and kept you quiet the enioying of which was a cheife cause of My coming hither Tumults and Disorders having made Me leave the South and not to make this the Seate of a War as Malice would but I hope in vaine make you beleeve Now if Disturbances doe come I know whom I have reason to suspect To be short you see that My Magazine is going to be taken away from Me being My owne proper goods directly against my will The Militia against Law and my consent is going be to put in execution And lastly Sir Iohn Hothams Treason is countenanced All this considered none can blame me to apprehend Dangers Therefore I have thought fit upon these reall grounds to tell you That I am resolved to have a Guard the Parliament having had one all this while upon imaginary Iealousies only to secure my Person In which I desire your concurrence and assistance and that I may be able to protect you the Lawes and the true Protestant Profession from any Affront or iniury that may be offered which I mean to Maintaine My Selfe without charge to the Countrey intending no longer to keep them on foot then I shall be secured of My iust Apprehensions by having satisfaction in the particulars before mentioned THE ANSWER TO HIS
