LONDON'S Triumphant Holiday Being a brief Relation of the chiefest memorable Proceedings that hath attended his Majesty since his Troubles TRiumphs hath ever been allowed of and commendable by all Nations under the Sun not onely of Heathens but Christians too so far forth as we do not in adoreing the Creature forget the Creator as the Herodians did Solomon saith there is a time for all things a time to laugh as well as to weep a time of joy as well as sorrow But let our rejoycing be in the Lord who always is working for the best for them that fear him This great work or we may miraculous wonder May make the very Atheists of these Times see there is a God that governs that can turn and overturn in a moment and in a month bring in a Reformation without blood which the gods of our own inventions hath been a Reforming Deforming we may say these twenty years sheading Royall and Innocent Blood to mix with their untempered morter and with the bones of innocent Martyrs build the walls of their confused Babel and wasted this Nations Treasure to set up a bloody Traitor to Rule over it who whilst he was living I am afraid some lov'd and serv'd him more than God or else they would not have so Deifi'd him on the earth so long after his death but he was kept so long or as I may say the Popet of him for they took two-pence a piece in Westminster to see him where he lay there in his Hospitall Roabs for it was bestowed on him by the forc'd alms of the Country and they thought to have had a gathering for it for the mony was borrowed for the present of some of his voluntary or forc'd friends which I believe they are all the mourners that ever was for him I believe he did degenerate so from Nature that his own wife or children could scarce drop a tear for him if they did it was more for fear of losing their Estates or Honor more than him But what should I relate more of him it asks whole volumes to declare his wickedness I shall with Gods leave here relate to you most of the chiefest passages that hath hapned this last memorable month of May in relation to his Majesty our most gracious Soveraign CHARLS the Second King of England Scotland France and Ireland whom God hath most wonderfully brought into his own Birth-right which hath béen detained from him by bloody Mechanick Rebells The first day of this month of May 1660. he was Voted by both Houses of Parliament

most parts in England to the utmost of their powers So he was proclaimed and the Commissioners was with his Majesty in Holland by the next Tuesday being the fifteenth day and the Wednesday after being the 23d day his Majesty set sail for England and Tuseday following being the 29th day and his Birth-day he was entertain'd in London with great triumph and joy which I shall for the more satisfaction of all you that are his faithfull Subjects give you a brief and true acount of most of the Royalest entertainment he received since his landing Fryday the 25th his Majesty Landed at Dover where his Excellency General Monk fell on his knees to his Majesty which the King would not suffer but took him up imbracing him more like a Father then a Subject his Majesty walking with him towards his Coach
