Together with a Description of his Life and Throne And a cleare view of his Court and Counsell The Manner of Crowning CHARLES the Second King of Scotland THe Crown Sword and Scepter being brought to Scoon by the Estates of Parliament their King sitting in his Chaire of State and the Nobility Barons and Burgesses of Parliament about him in the Presence Chamber The Marquesse of Arguile made a Speech advertising the King that the Parliament of Scotland were come to present his Majesty with the Crown Sword and Scepter But that before he received it he was to take an Oath and sweare as his former predecessors had done before him which Oath was tendred to the King and he sware to it as followeth The Oath sworn by CHARLES the Second King of Scotland at his Coronation 1 Jan. 1650. I Doe Promise and Vow in the presence of the Eternall God that I will maintain the true Kirke of God Religion right Preaching and administration of the Sacraments now Received and Preached within this Realme in purity And shall abolish and gain-stand all false Religions and Sects contrary to the same And shall rule the people committed to my charge according to the will of God and laudable Lawes and Constitutions of the Realme causing Iustice and Equity to bee ministred without partiality A Speech made by CHARLES the Second King of Scotland at his Coronation on 1 January 1650. I Will by Gods assistance bestow my life for your Defence wishing to live no longer then that I may see this kingdome flourish in happinesse Then the Scots King stood upon a place where he might shew himselfe to the people and made protestations of great love and affection to them and the Crown being tendred to the King by three Ministers of the Assembly one of them spake as followeth The Ministers Speech at the tendring of the Crown to the King SIR I Doe present unto you King Charles the Second the right Descended Inheritor the Crown and Dignity of this Realm then turning his face towards the people the Minister said further Are ye not willing to have him for your king and become subject to him At which time the Crowne was held before the King three Ministers of the Assembly being present then the King turned himself to be seen of the people who cryed with a great noise God save King Charles the Second And then he had the Crown put upon his head by the Marquesse of Arguile and he took the Scepter in his hand and the Sword he gave to a Lord of Scotland to bear it before him A Description of the Life and Throne and a ●…e view of the Court and Councel of CHARLES the Second King of Scotland This glittering Commet is not to be numbred amongst the fixed Starres his Crown carrieth no luster but what assumes a fained aspect to the pur-blind Jockeys between Fife and Orkney who deale with him as their predecessors did with their simple ignorant King Ethodius the second whom they Crowned for reverence to the Race of Fergus to carry the name of a King but the Estates governed him by a guard of Tutors yet he himselfe acts his designs like Nathalocus their thirtieth King who corrupting their Grandees with buds of faire promises obtained the Regall power This Artificiall Meteor is only a Scottish vapour exhaled by French distillation and with clensing thunder shaken out of the English horizon fallen into the bosome of the Kirke of Scotland and made their Baby in the Stoole of repentance swearing as once Galdus did in the same Thron Se majorum consiliis acquieturum They having poured the oyle of the Presbytery upon him and given him the Crown and Scepter to weare for them though Arguile had not power to hold it right and easily on his disturbed and a king head whilst they devide the rags of his tattered Throne between the Kirke and Cavaliers whose actings towards their new Soveraign puts him into a worse condition in the Charles-Waine they make him draw then an honest English Carter that hath a Team of Horses to pul for him His unhappinesse in his fatall Progenitors he may read in Capitalls engraven even on the Throne he sits in where is legible to his eyes the ecodemical disasters of the Family out of which he sprang His Father was beheaded His Grand-Father as some Phisitians have declared poysoned His great Grand-Father and so on to severall assents before successively cut off by disastrous deaths And for himselfe His niger haire and swarthy complexion is a visible heroglifix of his gloomy motions in which he followes the dictates of his mothers counsels and the Scots commands resolved into politickes as furiously as his obstinate Father did the humor of ●is own will He hath designed popularity from a child and even in his tender years expressed passion against his maidens that disturbed those boys that came to play with him And he did often in the City of London the metropolis of his fathers Teritoryes to draw the peoples affections to be as fixed on him as their eyes scatter many handfuls of silver in smal coyne from several Windowes and Belconyes in Cheape-side and other places amongst the vulgar and as if he had Roman Royalty bred in his visage forced himselfe to triumph in this liberality without any visible change in his countenance But the words of Augustine containe the Encomium of charity Charitas est amor rerum quas non nisi volentes amittemus In his fathers presence he seemed to admire his Throne and before his mother her Idolls yet to persons popular hee had many glances against the Arch-Bishop of Canterbury and others whom the peoples discontents struck at as if Absolom-like he cheifly studyed the Preparation to his Fathers Kingdomes But herein he did but delude those poor dreamers as he doth now the Scotch Presbyters who being rich onely whilst they sleep loose all as soon as they awake their dreames inrich them but when they awake they are plundered of all and reduced to their former poverty During the late bloody warres of his Fathers waging against the Parliament of England he was either with him actually or in his absence carried on by the advice of Cottington Barkley Culpepper and others by his Father appointed for his absolute Councellours and after his Fathes death he wholly prostrated himselfe to the fortune of his mothers and the Jesuites and Popish Priests resolutions as Culenus did to the Monastery of St. Andrews And after a foundation to act his designes upon which were laid with great consultations by power and policy to subdue England Scotland and Ireland to his obedience which gave him some seeming promises but no conclusion at Jersey His brother of Orange was thought to have more sublime wings to give influence to those cockatrise egges who brooded so effectually that the Treaty at Breda
