The Queens PROPHECY Concerning Prince CHARLES AND The three Crowns of England Scotland and Ireland With Her Letter Advice and Proposals to His Highnesse at the Hague in Holland Honoured Sir THe Queen of England is much perplexed and sore troubled in mind the Fountain and Rise whereof taking its first derivation from the present streams or head of the Royal Off-spring at the Hague for having sent a Letter to her Sonne Prince Charles to advise him to a Treaty with her Majestys and to meet her at Amians in France but hearing that his affections had taken Center another way and that he could not meet her there she resolved not to make any further addresse unto him but returned backe to Paris condoling much the losse of her late endeared Soveraign and the present proceedings of the Prince in reference to the work in hand touching his restauration And after some few dayes spent in serious meditations watering her Princely bed with teares of sorrow she desired a conserence with Mr. Henry Jermin at which she declared That she had received severall Diciate in a Dream and that many things were revealed to her thereby by Apparitions and Visions to wit First that if her Son Prince Charles did any wayes alienate his affections from going to Ireland and cast himself upon the Kingdom of Scotland He was a lost Prince and that they would serve him as they had done his Father to sell him for a sum of money and so deprive him of all Earthly felicity which might abundantly flow from his three Crownes and Kingdomes Secondly That if his vigilancy were not perspicuous to those in power in playing of his Game at Sea that his Designe would be soone frustrated and all hopes of restauration wholly expiated c. Having dictated unto him these propheticall expressions Her Majesty desired that they might be forthwith communicated unto his Highnesse which was asserted to and a messenger immediatly dispatched from thence to the Hague Leyden 26. Aprill 1649. Another new Proyhfie A Yorkshire Gentlewoman coming out of Cleveland to present some things to the House of Commons delivered a paper to Lieut Gen. Crumwell containing matters which she faith she had in command from God in a Vision viz. 1 That the Parliament reform the Clergy only settle such Ministers as promote holinesse and the glory of God 2 To make the Laws of the Land plain and just grounded upon the Word of God 3 To make speedy and effectuall provision for the poor 4 That differences be composed at home before the breaking out of further distractions abroad These things she saith that she being as dead for a time were revealed to her by God she beholding the glory of Heaven and the Almighty Jehovah Sir Our dependance here is what his gracious Majesty will do all desire his comming hither but the professed downright Royalists would have him come with a force for there instituting him in his Right the other party such as reall for Presbytery would also have him come with a new heart Wee hear that the vulgar sort of people do cry him up exceedingly and say they must and will have a King though it cost them never so much here are dayly risings in severall parts of the Country the Marquesse of Huntleys Son is again in arms with 2000. Gourdons to revenge his Fathers death they have declared for Charles the second and have set forth their Invitation for all persons to come in to their assistance Col. Car and divers other English Officers are likewse very active in raising or Forces and have sent Letters of invitation into Northumberland Cumberland and Wer●merlund for others to come to them promising great matter of preferment but it is more then they are able to performe for the well affected party are both vigilant active in suppressing of them BerWick 24 Arpil 1649. SIR THe Prince of Wales hath had severall conferences and disputations with his grand Councellours at the Hague they presse hard for his going into Ireland but he seemes very unwilling to give his assent thereto and hath delivered several Reasons at the Councell table in the presence of the Lord Cottington and others wherein he remonstrates the apparent danger that may befall his Royall person if once he should set footing in that Kingdom by reason of the falling off of his Subjects of Scotland who are determined to act upon new principles if once he appeares in the head of that Army And therefore he was resolved to make that place his chiefest Center for some certain time having alienated his affections either from England Scotland or Ireland till he saw an opportunity for the playing of his Game with more facility and surety Montrosse during this respire of time seriously minding the dissenting expressions of the Prince arose from the table and with an austeer countenance said That if his Majesty for so is he called at the Court would not hearken to the good Councell now attending his Royall person in all probability he might become the most deplorable Prince in Christendome and in stead of the enjoyment of the prerogative and felicity of three Kingdoms be forced to contain himselfe within the bounds and limits of the Territories of one Naiton The Prince replyed That one Crowne firmly and universally set upon his head might produce greater tranquility and felicity to himself and the rest of the Royall Off-spring than three that should stand in a tottering and unstable motion c So that in all probability it is conjectured that hee will decline his Center both from England and Ireland and wholly cast himself upon the Kingdom of Scotland for hee hath declared That he will cast off the Earl of Montrosse and all those who are conceived Enemies to peace and truth and apply himself to those particulars propounded from the Estates of Scotland which are conceived to be the voyce of the people and the advice of that Kingdom He seemes to make little preparation against England in reference to Warlike affaires rather taking his late Fathers advice and admonition to gain it by the way of reconciliation and treaty then by the power of the bloud-thirsty Sword But yet notwithstanding he is much pressed to the contrary and the two Extraodinary Ambassadours from the King of Denmark and the Queen of Swethland hath saluted his Highness and at a conference condoled the death of his late Father intimating that they wonld use their utmost endeavours for the reinvesting of him in his just Rights and Dignities and restoring of him to his Royall prerogative and Birth right and to that end have delivered their Representation and Invitation to the most high and mighty Lords the States of the United Provinces to joyne with them to assist the said King to obtain his Birthright but it is said they have declared their resolution to be offensive nor defensive against either parties So that it is verily believed that the States will act as Neutralists and neither meddlewith one side nor the other For they have declared that nothing shall be wanting in them for the preservation of a right understanding with the parliament of England and that they will endeavonr the union and peace thereof against all opposition whatsoever Brill 20. Aprill 1649. Postscript Sir Since the writing of my last the two extraordinary Embassadours from Sweden and Denmark have had audience with the 〈◊〉 King of Scotland representing the personall appearance of their Masters and promising him assistance for the obtaining of his Birthright But truly we cannot discerne any visible Force as yet in Armes and the Princes Propositions to the old Souldiers of the United Provinces are much slighted and rejected having unanimously declared that they will not any wayes intermeddle with the affairs of England in relation to the erecting and setting up of Monarchy or any other Government whatsoever Here is a great demur hapned at Court by reason of the Parliaments Navy putting forth to Sea which causeth many who at first seemed very forward to promote the Royall Design to desert any further Engagement taking a president by the late headlesse members who acted against the Common wealth of England Hague 25.
