Sect. 7. King James's Council of War.
THerefore King James calls a Council of War, And plainly states the matter as they are; You know, my Friends? the Northern Hereticks Have still withstood our milder Politicks; There's nought can conquer them but dint of sword, We must use force, I see, upon my word. I've call'd you hither for your sound advice, Lets think how we may do it in a trice. If England such true Friends as you had bred, I ne're had bow'd unto the French for aid.
