In Pursuance

whereof, We do, upon this occasion con∣jure you to take into consideration Our (too long neglected) Message of the fourth of July from Evesham, which We again renue unto you. And that you will speedily send Vs such an Answer thereunto, as may shew unto Our poor Subjects, some light of a deliverance from their present calamities by a happy Accomodation, toward which We do here engage the Word of a King, to make good all those things which We have therein promised, and really to en∣devour a happy conclusion of this Trea∣ty. And so God direct you in the wayes of Peace,
Given at Our Court at Tavestockthe 8. of September, 1644.
