THE Duke of BUCKINGHAMS speech to the Magistrates of St. NEEDS.

Gentlemen,

WE come not hither to carry any thing from you, but have given strict or∣der, that neither Officers nor Souldi∣ers take what is yours away. Nor are our intentions to make a new warre, but to rescue the Kingdom from the Arbitrary power of the Com∣mittees of the severall Counties that labour to con∣tinue a bloody warre, to destroy you. Our resolu∣tion for peace is, by a well-setled Government un∣der our Royall King Charles, and do blesse God that he hath made us instruments to serve the King the Parliament, and Kingdom, in the way of peace.
