To the King. writ, 1644.

TO thee, Great Monarch of this Isle I send my Babes, pray make them smile; For yet methinks tis in thy power, To make them smile, or let them lower. They'r children to that Prince of might, Who is the Prince of peace behight. Do not with war my Babes affright, In smiling peace is their delight, My Prince by yeelding won the field, Be not too rigid, dear King yeeld: Examples that are great and high. I hope you'l follow, fix your eye On my great prince, that is your King, He left a Heaven, you peace to bring. A Kingdome I'de not have you leave, But rather three reform'd receive. All blisse and peace I wish to you, Let us in peace, your presence view.
