Sir,

VVEE thirst after no mans blood, but desire that God will scatter the people that delight in warre. I doe therefore, as here Commanded for settlement of these parts, and prevention of insurrections and tumults, demand of you the hould wherein you now are, together with your armes, to be forthwith delivered into my hands for the use of the King and Parliament. If this moti∣on be rejected, expect hostilities, and the Lord looke upon each of us according to the sincerity of his heart, as we desire our peace, to the greatest honour both of God and the King.

C. Fairfax.

Thornhill the 16. of Iuly, 1648.
