A Petition delivered unto our gracious King Charles, upon this occasion; The King was to go towards New-market upon Munday, but the waggon and the hounds went thorow Cheapside upon the Lords day, which was not lawfull, O King: I never heard that they removed since upon the Lords day, so gra∣cious was the Kings care herein.
Good King Charles, Remember to keep holy the Sab∣bath day,And let not Charles wain be seen to move on Lon∣don way;But in the high Sphear of heavenly Contempla∣tion:Let that day be spent in holy meditation:Both King, servants, subiects, all zealous for Gods glory,To hate profanenesse, and to abolish all idolatry;That so when thy blest soul shall leave thy Royall breast,Thou mayest in heaven for ever have a glorious rest.
The humble petition of your sinfull subiect
Iohn Spencer
