The Kings Majesties most gracious Letter to his Son his Highnesse James, Duke of York, written with his Majesties own hand; read in both Houses of Parliament.
C. R.
IAmes, I am in hope, that you may be permitted, with your Brother, and Sister, to come to some place, betwixt this and London, where I may see you.
To this end therefore; I command you, to aske leave of the two Houses, to make a journey (if it may be) for a night or two.
But rather then not to see you; I will be content that yee come to some conve∣nient place to dine, and go back at night.
And foreseeing the feare of your being brought within the power of the Army, as I am, may be objected, to hinder this my desire.
I have full assurance from Sir Thomas Fairfax, and the chiefe Officers, that there will be no interruption, or impediment, made by them, for your returne, how, and when you please.
So God blesse you.
Your loving Father Charles Rex.
CasamJuly 4. 1647.
