LVI. To the Lords Commissioners, at their taking leave, NEWPORT, Nov. MDCXLVIII.

MY Lords, You are come to take your leave of Me; and I believe we shall scarce never see each other again: but God's Will be done. I thank God, I have made my Peace with Him, and shall without fear undergo what He shall be pleased to suffer man to do unto Me.

Page 189

I am fully informed of the whole carriage of the Plot against Me and Mine; and nothing so much afflicts Me, as the sense and feeling I have of the Sufferings of my Sub∣jects, and the Miseries that hang over my three Kingdoms, drawn upon them by those who upon pretences of Good violently pursue their own Interests and Ends.
