A Letter written by master Symon Rodes Minister in Yorke To his Brother in London With the substance of Sir THO: WIDRINGTONs Deputy Recorders Speech of Yorke to His Majestie at his Entry into the Citie Brother PErhaps as the World is now come about you may in some particulars be as glad of tydings from us as we formerly have beene from you His Majestie made his entrance into Yorke on Fryday last in the afternoone about foure of the Clock The Mayor and Aldermen with some others of the chiefest Citizens meeting him a mile from the City Where Sir Thomas Widrington his Deputy Recorder of York made a very worthy and solemne Speech unto him and in some passages was seene to weepe His Speech by any expression the King could be observed to shew was not very well liked of him The Speech as neere as I could get a Copy of it I have here sent you enclosed The Lord Mayor tendred the Sword unto his Majestie upon his knee and having kissed his Majesties hand received it of him againe bearing it before him through that part of the City unto the Pallace That night late the Earle of Newcastle came in with some other Company which Earle departed very early againe the next morning some reported towards Hull others for the Bishopricke of Durham His Majestie had no extraordinary Attendance with him What may follow I know not Here flie divers conjectures suspitious rumours upon his Majesties removeall so farre from His Parliament That Discontent occasioned it we all feare God remove in his good time all Iealousies from betweene the King and his people There came on Thursday night a servant or Messenger from Sir Iohn Haughtham Governour of Hull unto the Lord Mayor being the night before His Majestie made his entrance What the importance of that Message did concerne I for my part am as yet wholly ignorant of but it is given out to be something that the said Governour requested the Lord Major to impart unto his Majestie as touching some great charge he had lately received from both Houses as touching something about giving entrance into the Towne The rest Time must produce Here are great feares about Strangers Danes and others with a great Fleet that should be upon the Coast and to come for Hull or Newcastle But I trust in God t is not so Some Disturbances for certaine are broke forth in the Bishopricke of Durham but whereupon and what the true ground of it is I dare not yet write although it is heere in Yorke given out that some of the Popish Partie there doe not onely speake but begin to attempt strange matters One whereof is That they will not part with their Armes according unto the last Order of the Parliament Your true affectionate Brother Simon Rhodes Sr. Thomas Widrington Deputy Recorder of Yorke his Speech unto his Majesty Friday March 18. 1641. what time His Majesty made his entry into Yorke met by the Lord Major Dread Soveraigne I Am by the assignement of the Right Honourable the Lord Major the Worshipfull Aldermen and worthy Citizens of Yorke by the duty of my place by my owne so many personall great obligements unto your most Sacred Majesty this third time appointed to welcome Your Royall presence to Your City of Yorke and assuredly most undoubted Soveraigne were it not that wee in our minds as full of Loyalty as affection toward Your Majesty have too just cause to feare that high discontent arising from the heavy distance which it hath pleased God for our sinnes for no long time wee trust to breake out betweene Your Majesty and Your Grand Counsell now assembled hath rather occasioned this Your Majesties repaire hither at this season then the oportunity of the place as Your Majesties affaires now stand or any our deserved worthinesse Your Majesty being the onely Sol of our hearts should have had a farre more transcendent vigour in them toward the raising a farre more forward Spring of joy in them then yet the Sunne from his Spheare hath in these par●s produced out of the Earth I speake not this Deare Soveraign in any wise to bee understood as if it were not deepely possessed with all reall and cordiall comfort not onely at the Presence of Your Royall selfe but likewise of that of Your Royall Sonne the Princes Highnesse whose Excellency is this very first time beheld generally by so great a multitude of Northen eyes as never before in these parts whom God Almighty long preserve to Your

Loyall Subiects throughout Your Kingdome to see once a happy and a firme correspondency betweene Your Maiesty and this Parliament wherein Your Maiesties good and ours as head and members is a like
