THough it cannot be denyed out that the promulgating of a Duty takes away almost the honour concomitant ; yet since the late small Actions of every p●tty Borrough that hath but the least tincture of a new acquired Loyalty , are still with singular care and indu●●ry dayly commended to the Press ; why should then these considerable demonstrations of Loyalty be w●apt up in Oblivion , that were laid forth in the proclaiming of his Sacred Majesty in the famous County and Town of Nottingham and the loyal Corporation of Newark . Assoon as the joyfull newes came of the proclaiming of his Majesty at London , the Mayor of Nottingham who for his early Loyalty had suffered imprisonment and banishment by the barbarous fury of the Tyrannical Governour ) without staying for Order , by beating of Drums did convene all the Townsmen together in Armes , who were nigh 1000. shot , besides a Militia Troop ; and then in all the usual places d●d solemnly himself proclaim it , at every time with vollies of shot , and such shouting of people as was to the wonderment of all , and astonishment of those few Phanaticks in town . The like in every respect was at Newark , save that the Deputy Mayor who proclaimed it was a Commissioner for Lambert , and a King-hater as long as it was in fashion : but one solemnity was not sufficie●t for Newark ( a Town as early as any in Loyalty , and beyond all in perseverance ; a Town that proposed no other end but his Majesties service , which was seen by enduring all extremeties for his sake , and yielding ( in order to his command ) upon bald terms for their own Town , where onely for Original Sinne , people were punisht in this world by one of the late Kings murderers who by a rump●ng Order rob'd some O●phans of 2500. l. for their Loyalty , the pretended sinne of the parents . ) [ T is hop't the Right honourable , the Lords will take this into their consideration , and relieve them who by their means are reduc't to pressing penury ; before they passe an Act of Oblivion , the Lord Lexinton is able to inform further . ] They thought it as fit likewise to keep a memorial of the Kings comming into the World , in order to which May 29. i' th morning one of the Militia Companies drew into the field , where no sooner drawn up , but the Mayor , Aldermen , and Vicar with the inhabitants came by in solemn procession with singing of Psalmes , and at the Towns end made a halt , that the foot might march before them all the streets along were strew'd with green Bouchs and Flowers , to the Church , where was an excellent Sermon preach't by one Mr. Brawell , who took for his Text Eccles. 10. v. 17. the very choice of which is sufficient to set forth the ingenuity of the Gentleman , there was one thing observable during the sermon , that chose pathetick expressions conc●●ning the murder of the late King , ( which fetch't tears from most of the Auditors eyes , yet could not fetch off the ha●s of three or four fear'd Aldermen ) after Sermon an Anthem 1'th Organ-lo●● , with loud Musick ; at 3. of the clock they drew into the field again , both the Horse and Foot of the M●litia , and a Company of Townsmen ; where after some pleasant skirmishing , which took up 2. or 3. hours they march't in again , where being drawn round the Market-place in a single File , they gave 3. handsome vollies of shot : after this bon fi●e and much so well compos'd , that I defie malice ( nay the aforesaid Aldermen themselves ) to say that there was either Souldier or Officer seen drunk that night . The Horse was commanded by Captain Eyre ; the Foot by Captain Whaley the loyal Chief of a loyal Family ; the other one who never receded from Loyalty by bowing a knee to Baal ; there were present at the solemnity Squire , Leek and others , besides divers Gentlemen of quality , who riding as Volunteers , gave singular demonstration of their good Affections that day . Wednesday , 13 Iune . At the House of Lords .
