CHARLES I. King of Great Britain France and Ireland was the Son of James VI. King of Scots and Anne his Wife a Daughter of Denmark By His Father descended to Him all the Rights together with their blood of all our Ancicient both Saxon and Norman Kings to this Empire For the Lady Margaret Sister and sole Heir of Edgar Atheling the last surviving Prince of the English Saxons being married to Malcolme Conmor King of Scots conveyed to his Line the Saxon and Margaret Daughter of Henry VII married to James IV. did bring the Norman titles and blood From this Imperial Extract He received not more Honour than He gave to it For the blood that was derived to Him elaborated through so many Royal Veins He delivered to Posterity more maturated for Glory and by a constant practice of Goodness more habituated for Vertue He was born at Dunfermeling one of the principal Towns of Fife in Scotland on Nov. 19th An. 1600. An. 1600 in so much weakness that his Baptism was hastened without the usual Ceremonies wherewith such Royal Infants are admitted into the Church Providence seeming to consecrate Him to Sufferings from the Womb and to accustome Him to the exchange of the strictures of Greatness for clouds of Tears There was no Observation nor Augury made at His Birth concerning the Sequel of His Life or course of Fortune which are usually related of such whose lives have different occurrences from those in others of the same state Either the fear of His Death made those about Him less observant of any Circumstances which curious minds would have formed into a Prediction He appearing like a Star that rises so near the Point of his Setting that it was thought there would be no time for Calculation Or He being at distance by his Birth from the Succession to the Crown Prince Henry then having the first hopes made men less sollicitous to enquire of His future state on whom being born to a private Condition the Fate of the Kingdom did not depend But in the third Year of His age when King James was preparing himself to remove to the English Throne a certain Laird of the Highlands though of very great age came to the Court to take his leave of him whom he found accompanied with all his Children After his address full of affectionate and sage Advice to which his gray hairs gave authority to the King An. 1602 his next application was to Duke CHARLES for in the Second year of his Age he was created Duke of Albany Marquess of Ormond Earl of Rosse and Baron of Ardmanock whose hands he kiss'd with so great an ardency of affection that he seem'd forgetful of a separation The King to correct his supposed mistake advised him to a more present observance of Prince Henry as the Heir of his Crown of whom he had taken little notice The old Laird answered that he knew well enough what he did and that It was this Child who was then in His Nurses arms who should convey his name and memory to the succeeding ages This then was conceived dotage but the event gave it the credit of a Prophecy and confirmed that Opinion That some long-experienced souls in the World before their dislodging arrive to the height of prophetick Spirits When he was three years old He was committed to the Care and Governance of Sir Cary's Lady An. 1603 as a reward for being the first Messenger of Queen Elizabeth's death whose long life had worn the expectation of the Scotish Nobility into a suspicion that the Lords of England would never acknowledge her to be dead as long as there was any old Woman of that Nation that could wear good cloaths and personate the Majesty of a Queen In the fourth Year An. 1604 after he had wrestled with a Feaver He was brought in October to the English Court at Windsor where on the Jan. 6. following having the day before been made Knight of the Bath He was invested with the Title of Duke of York An. 1606 and in the sixth Year was committed to the Pedagogie of Mr Thomas Murray a Person well qualified to that Office though a favourer of Presbytery Under this Tutor and confined to a retiredness by the present weakness of his Body He was so diligent and studious that He far advanced in all that kind of Learning which is necessary for a Prince without which even their natural Endowments seem rough and unpleasant in despight of the splendour of their Fortune His proficiency in Letters was so eminent that Prince Henry taking notice of it to put a Jest upon Him one day put the Cap

the Nobility wherein He acquitted Himself with a Bravery equal to his Dignity And on the Sunday following attending His Father to the Sermon at St Paul's Cross and to the Service inthe Quire He shewed as much humble Devotion there as He had manifested Princely Gallantry in his Justs admired and applauded by the People for His Accomplishments in the Arts both of War and Peace That he could behave Himself humbly towards His God and bravely towards his Enemy pleased with the hardiness of His Body and ravished with his more generous Mind that the Pleasures of the Court had not softned one to Sloth nor the supremest Fortune debauched the other to Impiety Confident in these An. 1622 and other evidences of a wise Conduct the King without acquainting his Counsel sends the Prince into Spain there to Contract a Marriage with the Infanta and as a part of the Portion to recover the Palatinate which His Sisters Husband had lost and was by the Emperour cantel'd to the Duke of Bavaria and the King of Spain And herein He was to Combate all the Artists of State in that Court the practices of that Church and put an Issue to that Treaty wherein the Lord Digby though much conversant in the Intriegues of that Council had been long cajoled To that Place he was to pass Incognito accompanied only with the Marquess of Buckingham Mr Endymion Porter and Mr Francis Cottington through France where to satisfy His Curiosity and shew Himself to Love He attempted and enjoyed a view of the Court at Paris and there received the first Impression of that Excellent Princess who was by Heaven destined to His Chast Embraces Satisfied with that sight no lesser enjoyments of any Pleasure in that great Kingdom nor Vanity of Youth which is hardly curbed when it is allyed to Power could tempt His stay or a discovery of His Greatness but with a speed answerable to an active Body and Mind He out-stripped the French Posts which were sent to stop Him although that King had intelligence of His being within his Dominions immediately after their departure from the Louvre The certain news of His safe arrival at Madrid drew after Him from hence a Princely Train and raised the Censures of the World upon the King As being too forgetful of the Inhospitality of Princes to each other who when either Design Tempests or Necessity have driven their Rivals in Majesty upon their Coasts without a Caution they let them not part without some Tribute to their Interest and a fresh Example of this was in the King 's own Mother who seeking Refuge in England with her Sister Queen Elizabeth from a Storm at Home did lose both her Liberty and Life This none daring to mind the King of his Jester Archee made him sensible by telling him He came to change Caps with him Why said the King Because replyed Archée Thou hast sent the Prince into Spain from whence He is never like to return But said the King what wilt thou say when thou seest Him come back again Mary says the Jester I will take off the Fools Cap which I now put upon thy Head for sending Him thither and put it on the King of Spain's for letting him return This so awakened the King's apprehension of the Prince's danger that it drove him into an exceeding Melancholy from which he was never free till he was assured of the Prince's return to his own Dominions which was his Fleet in the Sea and that was not long after For notwithstanding the contrasts of his two prime Ministers there Buckingham and Bristol which were sufficient to amaze an ordinary Prudence and disturb the Counsels of so young a Beginner in the Mysteries of Empire and the Arts of Experienced Conclaves the impetuous attempts of the Spanish Clergy either for a change of His Religion or a Toleration of theirs the Spleen of Olivares whom Buckingham had exasperated He so dexterously managed the Treaty of Marriage that all the Articles and Circumstances were solemnly sworn to by both Kings By a civil Letter to the Pope which His Enemies Malice afterwards took as an occasion of Slander He procured a civil return with the grant of a Dispensation baffled the hopes of their Clergy by his Constancy in his own Profession and vindicated it from the odious aspersions of their Priests by causing our Liturgy to be translated into the Spanish Tongue and by His generous mien enthralled the Infanta for whom He had exposed His Liberty Yet having an insight into the practices of that Court that they would not put the Restitution of the Palatinate into the consideration of the Portion but reserve it as a Super-foetation of the Spanish Love and as an opportunity for the Infanta to reconcile the English Spirits who were heated by the late Wars into an hatred of the Spaniards and that this was but to lengthen out the Treaty till they had wholly brought the Palatinate under their Power He conformed His mind to the resolves of His Father who said He would never marry his Son with a Portion of His only Sister's Tears and therefore inclined to a Rupture But concealing His Purpose and dissembling His Knowledge of their Designs He consulted His own Safety and Return which His Father's Letters commanded which He so prudently acquired that the King of Spain parted from Him with all those endearments with which departing Friends ceremoniate their Farewells having satisfied him by a Proxie left with the Earl of Bristol to be delivered when the Dispensation was come Which as soon as He was safe on Shipboard by a private Express He commanded him to keep in his hands till further Order His return to England An. 1623 which was in October 1623. was entertained with so much joy and thanksgiving as if He had been the happy Genius of the whole Nation and his entrance into London was as a triumph for His Wisdom their Bonfires lengthned out the day and their Bells by uncessant ringing forbad sleep to those Eyes which were refreshed with His sight Nor could the People by age or sickness be confined at home but despising the prescriptions of their Physicians went to meet Him as restored Health When He had given the King an account of His Voyage and the Spanish Counsels not to restore the Palatinate a Parliament was summoned which was so zealous of the Honour of the Prince that both Houses voted an Address to his Majesty that he would no longer treat but begin a War with Spain and desiring the Prince's mediation who was always ready to gratifie the Nation therein to his Father they assured Him they would stand by Him with their Lives and Fortunes but yet when the War with the Crown descended unto Him they shamefully deserted Him in the beginning of His Reign When neither a Wife nor Peace was any longer to be expected from Spain both were sought for from France by a Marriage with Henrietta Maria the youngest Daughter of Henry the IV.

June 1643. VIII The QUEEN to the KING BATH Apr. 21. MDCXLIV My Dear Heart F Red. Cornwallis will have told You all our voyage as far as Adbury and the state of My health Since My coming hither I find My self ill as well in the ill rest that I have as in the increase of My Rheum I hope that this days rest will do Me good I go to morrow to Bristol to send You back the Carts many of them are already returned My Lord Dillon told Me not directly from You though he says You approve it that it was fit I should write a Letter to the Commissioners of Ireland to this effect That they ought to desist from those things for the present which they had put in their Paper and to assure them that when You shall be in another condition than You are now that You will give them contentment I thought it to be a matter of so great engagement that I dare not do it without Your command Therefore if it please You that I should do so send Me what You would have Me write that I may not do more than what You appoint and also that it being Your command You may hold to that which I promise for I should be very much grieved to write any thing which I would not hold to and when You have promised it Me I will be confident I believe also that to write to My Lord Muskery without the rest will be enough for the Letter which I shall write to him shall be with My own hand and if it be to all Your Commissioners it shall be by the Secretary Farewel My Dear Heart I cannot write any more but that I am absolutely Yours IX To the Earl of ESSEX at LESTITHIEL LISKARD August 6. MDCXLIV Essex I Have been very willing to believe that whenever there should be such a conjuncture as to put it in your power to effect that happy settlement of this miserable Kingdom which all good men desire you would lay hold of it That season is now before you you have it at this time in your power to redeem your Country and the Crown and to oblige your King in the highest degree an Action certainly of the greatest Piety Prudence and Honour such an opportunity as perhaps no Subject before you hath ever had or after you shall have To which there is no more required but that you join with Me heartily and really in the setling of those things which we have both professed constantly to be our only aims Let us do this and if any shall be so foolishly unnatural as to oppose their King's their Country's and their own good we will make them happy by God's blessing even against their wills The only impediment can be want of mutual confidence I promise it you on My part as I have endeavoured to prepare it on yours by My Letter to Hertford from Evesholm I hope this will perfect it when as here I do I shall have engaged unto you the word of a King that you joyning with Me in that blessed work I shall give both to you and your Army such eminent marks of My Confidence and value as shall not leave room for the least distrust amongst you either in relation to the Publick or your self unto whom I shall then be Liskard Aug. 6. 1644. Your faithful Friend C. R. If you like of this hearken to this Bearer whom I have fully instructed in particulars But this will admit of no delay X. To the Prince ELECTOR TAVESTOCK September 17. MDCXLIV Nephew IT being a Natural curiosity in Me to know the reason of your Actions I had never so much reason as now to desire it As I wondred at so as yet I never knew the reason of your journey from York to Holland But your coming at this time into the Kingdom is in all respects much more strange unto Me yet 't is possible that the latter may interpret the former And believe Me the consideration of your Mother's Son is the chief I may say the only cause of My curiosity For as to My Affairs your being here in the way you are is not of that importance as to make Me curious to inquire upon your Actions But the great affection I bear My Sister being a sufficient reason for Me to desire that all who appertain to Her should give a fair account of their Actions makes Me now ask you first upon what invitation you are come then the design of your coming wishing by your Answer I may have the same cause and comfort I have heretofore had to be Tavestock Sept. 17. 1644. Your Loving Uncle and faithful Friend C. R. XI To the Marquess of ORMOND OXFORD December 15. MDCXLIV Ormond I Am sorry to find by Colonel Barry the sad condition of your particular fortune for which I cannot find so good and speedy remedy as the Peace of Ireland it being likewise most necessary to redress affairs here wherefore I command you to dispatch it out of hand for the doing of which I hope My publick Dispatch will give you sufficient Instruction and Power yet I have thought it necessary for your more encouragement in this necessary work to make this addition with My own hand As for Poining's Act I refer you to My other Letter And for matter of Religion though I have not found it fit to take publick notice of the Paper which Brown gave you yet I must command you to give him My L. Muskery and Plunket particular thanks for it assuring them that without it there could have been no Peace and that sticking to it their Nation in general and they in particular shall have comfort in what they have done And to shew that this is more
