His Majesties Speech to the Earl of Northumberland on Fri∣day morning last, and his Protestation thereupon.
Right Honourable,
THis morning his Maj. and the Commissioners met in the Treaty Chamber, where the King, (according to his usuall manner) sat down in the Chair of State, and after some further debate, about the Bill of Church Go∣vernment, His Maj. rose up, and made a Speech: where he most graciously unfolded the Secrets of his royall breast; protesting, That he never had so good an opinion of his 2. Houses of Parl. since the unhappy separation, as now at present, and that he doubts not, but he shall give them good satisfaction, in all things by them desired, so∣beit, it may stand with the honour of his Majestie, and the fundamentall Lawes of the Realm.
His Majesties Courtiers begin to frown upon the joyful results of the Treaty, fearing that they shall not accom∣plish that which they first aimed at; for upon a motion to his Maj. touching a general act of oblivion, and his Maj. to enter into a Protestation to his people, for their future safety, liberties and Freedoms, divers of the great ones shewed a dislike thereof, others countenanced it with a smile, and upon the Agrement, and close of the Treatie, it is conjectured. His Maj. will firmly tye himself in Co∣venant with his people in a strong Protestation and En∣gagement, A Copy whereof I have sent you here inclo∣sed.
Newport. Novemb. 18. 1648.
