THE KINGS FAVOVR THE Parliaments Iustice AND The Subiects Ioy. Expressed In His Maiesties care for the Kingdome The Parliaments for endeavouring AND The Commons sedulity in propagating the same Written and avowed by Richard Newrobe Gent. LONDON Printed by Iohn Hammond 1641. Great Brittains Ioy FOR The long desired and happy Vnion between the King and Parliament To the great Comfort of all true Protestants and the astonishment of Papists Pope and DEVILL HItherto the endeavours of both King Parliament and Subiects have been to redresse those evils and expulse such pernitious designes as have been endeavoured against us by the malignant party of this Kingdome which although never so sedulous and vigilant yet have the dangers by them invented alwayes found a repercussion upon their owne heads through the care of this State-governing Parliament and although they have bene very diligent in sowing weeds of divisions amongst us yet our worthy Gardiners have puld them up by the roots that the Flowers of Religion loyalty faith and fidelity might flourish through the removall of our adversaries sith that our disconsolate cares have been so invoked to provide for resistance of these aforesaid evils how welcome and acceptable would the newes of a remedy be The Cite that so long hath been troubled frighted and perturbed with civill commotions and inexpressible dangers how would it shew forth the garlands of good will the Plumes of Peace and Ensignes of Loyalty upon so happy an alteration How would the Protestant reioyce and as it were bee involved in gladnesse to see the Papists and their hereticall adherents either converted or ashamed Such is the newes I meane to treat on so happy as it goes beyond expression to nominate and as reall as it seemes happy These grievances have principally been inverted upon us by his Maiesties disagreeing with the Parliament by the perswasions of some who were but seeming wel-wishers to the State To change these occasions of sorrow into happinesse His Maiesty hath beene pleased considering the manifold inconveniences that hee might incurre upon his Kingdome and himselfe by losing the affections of his Subiects by this so ominous accounted disseveration hath been since graciously pleased to unite himselfe with all alacrity and of his owne free-will with them for the consummation of his Subiects good s●●ling of a perfect peace and dissolving all doubts concerning the former disagreement for ever as followeth That whereas the continuall perturbance of the times had proved grievous and burdensome unto him in respect of the conversant commotions arising through his Non-residence with them at London his Maiesty was resowed for a speedy returne thereby to confiscate and abolish these their sorrowes As also that his hopes of and concerning this gracious message on Munday being the fourteenth of February last should have produced some such effect as by offering what was fit on their parts to doe as also for this Maiesty to granr might beget a mutuall confidence in each other His Maiesty therefore further desired that those his good hopes might not bee frustrated and so his endeavours prove vaine and to no purpose but rather that they would with sedulous diligence labour to strengthen and enable them any way to debilitate or weaken the same reciprocall coniunction or mutuall laborious co-operation And furthermore forasmuch as this his Kingdom of England was very much distressed in continuall fear through the want of exercised force though for souldier there bee sufficient by reason that his Maties chiefe Fortresses towards the sea-coasts were unfortified so the lesse able to make resistance against invasion they having manifested as much unto his Maiesty in care of his Realme and preservation of the secure peace and tranquility of his subiects Hee Royally desired that the present Parliament would speedily set about and expeditiously contrive a remedy and hee in that as in all other reasonable motions as farre as might stand with his Honour would mutually ioyne in assistance towardes the rectifying of the same As for the Petitions of severall Counties delivered and humbly preferred to the Parliament for the reliefe of these and other such like grievances of his Kingdome most especially concerning the grounds of Protestant Religion which hath been abused and little set by since the Bishops introducing bringing in and forcibly maintaining contrary to the consciences of the well-affected Protestants of superstitious and Papisticall ceremonies his Maiesty was graciously pleased with zeale and firme devotion to the truth to importune a reformation of the same thereby to gaine his subiects love and affection and procure them so long-look'd for and ever to be desired peace To the which end Wren and the other Bishops found tardy and to be delinquents concerning this occasion in and against the safety of the State and propagaring of Religion that seeing they were found guilty and the matter of so high consequence as concerning their censure it was ordered that they being the Metropolitans of the Church and principall Clergie of the Kingdome they should be delivered over to the upper House to receive censure from the Honourable Peers concerning their misdemeanors the which his Maiestie earnestly desired and consented unto Thus was the Vnity begun which wee daily pray to continue FINIS
