FOR Our Right Trusty AND WELL-BELOVED, THE Lord Major, Aldermen, and Common-Councell of Our City of LONDON.

of Estates of Our Parliament of Scotland, to give all just Satisfacti∣on to the joynt desires of both King∣doms, We have now likewise thought fit to assure the two chiefe Cities of both Our Kingdomes, That nothing is more grievous to Vs, than the trou∣ble and distractions of Our People, And that nothing on earth is more desired by Vs, then, that in Religi∣on and Peace, with all the comfor∣table Fruites of both, they may henceforth live under Vs, in all god∣linesse and honesty; And this profes∣sion Wee make for no other end, but that you may know immediately from Our selves, Our integrity and full resolution to comply with Our Parliaments in every thing for setling Truth and Peace, And our desire, to

have all things speedily concluded, which shall be found requisite for that end, That Our returne to that Our ancient City, may bee to the Satis∣faction of Our Parliament, the good liking of you, and all Our good peo∣ple, and to Our own greater joy and comfort. Wee bid you heartily fare∣well.

From Newcastle the 19 of May, 1646.
