Fairfax was General and Oliver Cromwel was Leiutenant General of the Army The latter over ruling overawing over fooling the former or else Dr. Hammond's Letter would have turned that violent Torrent which with him took no effect but was altogether slighted or unregarded but would have converted any unbjassed person from doing or suffering to be done such a bloody and unjust Act by so many impious Regicides Then the above named false and confused Society adjourned Hilary Term. Febr. 6. the Kings Office voted unnecessary and burdensome the 7. the King's body removed to Windsor and there interred under a small Marble Stone and so remains to this day without any show of Magnificence or Regal Monument where I hope his now dust will rest quietly But before I close up this fatal year let me produce one little wonder Note that in the Hundred of R●ckford Essex an Army of Mice shaved off all the Grass at the bare roots which withered to Dung was infectious to Cattle the March following numberless flocks of Owls from all parts flew thither and destroyed them and 68 years before this year happened the like accident in the Hundred of Dengy in Essex Jo.

Slingsby and the Reverend and Pious Dr. Huit was beheaded under the Tyranny of Oliver Cromwel However he set up a High-Court of Justice called so then Dr. Huit was a very great and good Divine and though Oliver's Daughter very much besought her Father upon her knees for his life all was but in vain however it was believed that the Monster of mankind Oliver never enjoyed himself long after for he was much troubled with Gravel and a little after that was much tormented with the Stone in the Bladder and though Dr. Bowls set him on his head and his heels upwards to remove the stone and gave him some ease at present yet he being return'd to his natural posture and the Dr. into the Country with his Coach and Six which Oliver had bestowed on him for his fees and attendance the Stone pressed down again with that violence and force and caused that horrible pain and that pain a Feaver and the Feaver brought that which took the insolent Usurper from his Protectorship which happened Sept. 3. 1658. Now let me desire you to accept of the Company of his Son Richard for a Protector Though he staid but six Months at the Helm the Sea the Commonwealth of Engl. grew very boisterous and sick till Richard was spewed up and outed of his Protectorship And he wanting his Fathers Courage and Judgment was outed accordingly 't was said he had some kindness for King Ch. II. and was willing to shew it at that time and help to restore him but too many eyes were upon him and his own want of experience made all ineffectuall at that juncture of affairs and the Government was put into other hands as shall appear afterwards This short-ruling Protector did very little in his half years Reign only got together things necessary for his Fathers Pompous Funeral which was upon Novomber 23. 1658.

good a work By this time the Reader may give this account that any man of reason being 58 years of Age in this Year of Jubilee 1688. may demonstrate and make it plainly appear to others of younger dates that he has lived under Eight Governours and Governments viz. In the Reign of King Car. I. Car. II. James II. William and Mary and is truly called Monarchy then under the power and Tyranny of two persons Regalwise in respect they were single persons and had the power of Calling and Dissolving Parliaments making War and Peace to condemn or save guilty Malefactors Robbers and Rebels and indeed Oliver's power did much exceed that Authority which King Charles I. did take upon himself yet this Oliver and his short-Reign'd Successor Richard wanted the Crown the Royal Title of a King and were content to enjoy the Nomination of Protectors with this addition upon the Great Seal of England inscribed By Divine Providence c. He then was under the arbitrary will and disposal of Parliaments ends and pieces formerly called the Rump Parliament which in the last eight Years of King Charles I. were the sole Lords and Rulers of England raising War against their King and likewise great Funds of Money which was also raised by imposition of the first Excise of Ale and Beer in England and not only publick but every private House paid for all the Beer they brewed and consumed the Butchers in all places paid so much for a Cow or Heifer a Bull or Ox so much a Calf and also for Sheep and six pence in the pound for all Woollen Cloth that was made and fold and there was an imposition upon Salt and several other things in this Nation This Domus Communis for brevities sake Dom.

Their dark actions being discovered in these intervals I judged they might seasonably in this place be interposed And now Reader having brought thee according to my promise under the figure of 8 to the year 1688 I leave thee there and bid thee Meditate on what was acted therein and heartily wish that the remembrance of that 88 may admit no FINIS AN APPENDIX REginald Pole Born at Stoverton Castle in Staffordshire was second Son to Sir Richard Knight of the Garter and nearly related to King Henry 7.
