MOst Royall and Illustrious Monarch of great Brittain , my great , my good and worthy Liege , the most regall object of my loving heart , best affections and utmost endeavours ; Be pleased to let this paper in all humilitie salute your Princely hands , and to give your Princely cogitations some account of my endeavors , ( as I am bound in duty , and as I am your Spouse and loyall wife ) for your Majesty in my absence , my love having now no other wayes left of expectation , but by being Your humble and faithfull Agent in accommodating and promoting your high affaires , wherein if my words , the pledges , and earnest solicitors for the improvement of Your present Fame and glory , may cary in them any strength of perswasion , I would earnestly encite your Princely thoughts to a remembrance of your Majesties Resolution to carry forward your designes untill they grow to a famous maturity and ripenesse : maintaine and continue your cause and complexion in the hardy prosecution of your affaires without any mittigation , unlesse an honourable satisfaction may make you disbandon and rayse your former Intentions : Now you have a large field given you , wherein the illustrious vertues inherent in your Royall Person may be actually expressed , and give the whole Christian world which are now spectators , and the eye of all Christendome upon your Person , a cleare approbation and testimonie that Your Majesty merits that noble attribute annexed to your Royall Title , Defendor of the Faith : for by such like actions as these , Princes live when they have paid their debt to Nature , and will be their own monument which shall be everlasting , and more durable then that of Marble . Be therefore constant in your Princely resolutions , full of your own Cause and your Majesty shall never want external accommodations and Forreign compliances , which by my earnest endeavours and solicitations have of late bin somewhat advanced , having obtained a list from our Brother the Prince of Orange , from whence as the speciall merit did distinguish them in worth , I have selected out of that number some choyse , well experienced and serviceable souldiers , such as shall bee forward with couragious affections to maintaine Your Princely affaires , and to amplifie your renowne and glory in the engagement of present actions : and out of these deserving men , I have sent fifty stout Commanders , who will be alwaies be ready to doe your Majestie service in your Army , and that I might further supply and serve your present occasions , I have caused 400. barrells of powder , and 10. pieces of ordnance ; to be conveighed to your Majesty , besides good store of all other ammunition , necessary upon all warlike occasions . The complyance of our noble Brother the Prince of Orange is so setled in a firme complexition , sympathising , and affectionately agreeing with the present condition of affaires , that he hath by many demonstrations given testimony thereof , and by raysing divers sums of money for my use , hath endeavoured the inclination of his particular affections , amongst other accomodations least your Majestie should be any ways necessitated , I am to certifie your Majesty , that the Iewels of your Crown are for present receipts engaged to some certaine Iewes of Amsterdam . Moreover I am to give your Highnesse cause to esteeme the cheerefull undertakings and forward alacritie of our Brother the Prince of Orange , who will with all carefull vigilancy be ready to take all opportunities for your Majesties advantage , and will with cleere intentions wherein you may repose trust , bee ready to expresse himselfe in all Christian Offices : My acknowledgment of Prince Robert's valiant courage and love exprest in personall actions , & those adhering to your Majestie , being arrived to my knowledg by a letter lately sent to Mr. Iermin , must needs deserve my approbation and highest commendation , since his worth and noble actions are of such transcendent expression of Princely merit . Amongst the other endeavours of my affectionate desires , the States haue been earnesty solicited for their ayde and assistance , which as yet cannot bee induced upon them to grant , nor can I by any perswasion obtayne the effect of my urgent motion , though I hope my Letters sent unto my Brother the French King , shall infuse a Royall flame into his breast , and make him through accompable fullnesse of your Highnesse Cause , give such ayd unto your Majesty , as may expresse him Royall in his thoughts , and tender of his Regall relation unto your Highnesse ; but if my Letter should be so unhappy as not fully to inflame and instigate his minde to awake his power in Your ayd and defence , I cannot nor will not see your actions brought on with so much expectation any way disanimated , but since the Ages hopes must be the production and businesse of Your weighty affaires , my personall solicitation shall at my going into Fraunce enduce and incline my most Christian brother to appeare in promoting and assisting your Majesties cause and actions , which are so full of honourable Justice : though absent till wee bee resident in your Princely heart , and beleive my affections and endeavours are ever ready to serve your Majesty . Sir , I am and allwaies shall be your most dutifull wife and liege woman . HENRETTA , MARIA , The Declaration and Petition of the Prince Palsgrave of the Rhyne , and the Queene his Mother , disclaiming and discountenancing Prince Robert in all his uncivill actions which he useth in this Kingdome , desiring both houses of Parliament not to stoppe their annuall pensions due to them for his cause which they cannot help . Their Protestation and Declaration , &c. WE do in the presence of Almighty God , and to all the whole World , and in the sight of all good men , in no manner approve , allow , give consent , or any way countenance the unjust and unruly actions of my Son Prince Robert now in England ; and so do I the same with the Queene my deare mother , by the same vow disrellish and hate all those outrages and cruelties of my brother Prince Robert , and it grieves us at our very Soules for his unhnmane cruelties we heare he commits , whose passion wee cannot confine , and whose hot spirit we cannot calme nor diswade him from acting , by all the lawfull meanes which we have used , as by Letters , Messages , and intimate friends . And our petition and desire is to the honorable houses of Parliament , that our annual pensions may be duely payd us , which is our chiefest lively-hood under God , and that wee may not suffer and languish for his sake , whose actions and behaviour we cannot helpe . Hoping that both Houses of Parliament will speedily consider of our petition which we have sent unto them , having continually found that favour from this Kingdome of England , for their reall loves in our distresse , that we are bound to assist you & your Nation both with our prayers and thankes , which is only acceptable and best pleafing unto God , and to all righteous men . And for my particular , I take God to witnesse , so long as I was in England with his Majesty , I laboured for peace , and a Reconciliation betwixt his Majesty and his Parliament , but finding that I could not prevaile , but I was over-borne by a strong faction who had his Majesties care , I took my leave , and went from Holland , obeying and hearkning unto my deare mothers counsel , whom I shall willingly obey and abide with . From the Hague 5. Octob. 1642. FINIS .
