ADMIRABLE And Notable things of Note viz. 1. The Royall Letter sent from the French King to his Brother the King of England 2. A true Coppy of the Lord George Digbies last Letter to the Queenes Majesty 3. The Queenes Majesties gracious answer to the same 4. A horrible Treason discovered from Holland which was plotted by a company of Iesuites and Papists against the Lady Elizabeth at the Hague the seventh of March last 1641. LONDON Printed for Francis Coules and Thomas Banks 1642. The Copy of a Royall Letter sent from the King of France to the King of England Royall Brother ALthough the Imperiall Diadem hath Crowned each of us by the Omnipotent providence of the Almighty and those once dis-united might exasperate our Princely mind against the British nation yet the noble lenety of your Clement Nature and the propitious consideration of those impendent and intricate perills wherein your Kingdomes are dangerously involved have respectively induced me to declare our good exoptations well-wishes to you And whereas we maturely understood and with credible information received intelligence of the rebellius insurrections of Ireland We did respectively sympathize with your solicitous deploration of their disasterous proceedings and will as shall be perspicuously declared hereafter vindicate their furious rebellion But your Majesty as hath been promulgated by report hath been mis-informed of divers particulars which not onely casts an indigne aspersion o our royall Name and Monarchicall Throne but highly derogates from Our Imperiall prerogative and innocuous intention It hath been publikly divulged that we alwayes made a ludibrious dirision at the perillous distractions of your Kingdomes and did not onely rejoyce at the disloyalty of Ireland but also instigated those Rebells with a calumnious suggestion to proceed in their bloudy Tyranny as if they should depend in expectation of our auxiliary assistance But we doe utterly defie and detest this scandalous and trecherous imputation reflected on Us and doe withall desire that the Authors of this ementitious Fable fathered on us may suffer exemplary punishment For we royally protest and affirme with our cordall assertion that whereas the dolefull intelligence of the British distraction came to our first audience We were so farre from entertaining any derisive alacrity that we seriously rather deplored the preposterous condition of of the same And as for the rebellion in Ireland it did so astimulate Our just indignation that Wee alwayes dis-affected the same and did not onely de●ort our subjects from presuming to conjoyn with them but also did publish a Proclamation to the Epidemicall Aspect of all in disswasion from that resolute intention Wherefore in this behalfe We are infinitely abused and our royall Clemency blasted with the infamous tongue of audacity for rather a reciprocall sympathy of those grievances did concurre in our Princely lenity then a contradictory antipathie of vindicative resolution found any entertainement of Tyrannicall habitation in Our commoted Ire Although many fugitive delinquents as Finch and others escaping from Impartiall Iustice supposed to find their Asylum in our realme yet impute not so vitious a connivance to our unspotted Innocency for we wil never protect them from impunity First then the fraternall concatenation of Brotherhood which by the legitimate bond of nature We are enjoyned unto doth foment a solicitous Indulgency in Our Princely minde to concord and co-union and not to inhiate the precipitious demolition or at the least extenu●tion of each others Crown Secondly the singular love of our Sister which likewise by the respective injunction of Nature we are induced unto doth by a sweet and delicious compulsion injoyne Vs to corroborate and not to precipitate each others Throne Lastly the firme League made between us which by the Nationall Law of Kingdomes we are bound to observe doth propitiously instigate us to preserve each others Imperiall Diadems All these unitely concurring together to the pl●usible composition of mu●ual tranquillity did respectively enjoyne us in a reciprocall coaction to declare ●ur Royall intents and indulgent desires for the flourishing prosperity of England We applaud you for the Royall entertainment of our Mother although we have little cause in regard of her intestine stratagem against us yet we conceive had shee tarryed longer in England she would have suddenly brought the State to a destructive ●u●ne notwithstanding all the sinister deprecations which we wish her are that in what Climate soever she resides in at length she may peaceably consummate her dayes in an happy period We now involve our intentions to the affaires of Ireland whose Barbarous Insolency We will sedul●usly endevour to cohibit in the limited termination of Loyalty and Obedience to you their dread Soveraigne VVhat I now implore and desire more is contained in these concise subsequent Declarations First that your Majesty would be graciously pleased to expedite and animate your Parliament to deliberate things in a conclusive Confirmation that as they have begun Nobly they may conclude with more fortunate successe to the future security of the Realm for procrastination in State matters doth either discourage some in the same Nation whose imminent grievances are not eased or at least doth animate forraigne Enemies to perfect any conspiracy against a Kingdome but a sudden conclusion doth both create alacrity in the joyfull minds of Subjects also prevent what stratagem may be in agitation Secondly We desire that your Parliament would correspondently accord with your Majesty without any opposition on either sides that thus unitely concurring together the waighty affaires of the Kingdome may be determinated with more facility Lastly what we desire more is that you would expedite your consultations for the more propitious reliefe of Ireland And for our selfe wee royally protest that we will confirme our former resolution to curbe the Tyrannicall insolency of those Rebels which shall bee a sufficient testim●ny of our indulgent affection to your Majesties prosperous raigne and the undoubted security of your Kingdomes Sealed with our royall Signet at our Palace in Paris Feb. 24. 1641. A true Coppy of the Lord Digbies Letter to the Queene MADAME I Shall not adventure to write unto your Majesty with freedome but by expresses till such time as I have a Cypher which I beseech your Majesty to vouchsafe me At this time therefore I shall onely let your Majesty know where the humblest and most faithfull servant you have in the world is here at Middleborough where I shall remaine in the privatest way I can till I receive instructions how I shll serve the King and your Majesty in these parts If the King betake himselfe to a safe place where he may avow and protect his servants f●o● rage and violence for from Justice I will never implore it I shall then live in impatience and in misery till I waite upon you But if after all hee hath done of late hee shall betake himselfe to the easiest and compliantest wayes of accommodation I am confident that then I shall serve him more
