Concerning His Resolution to go into Ireland for suppressing the Rebels there . LONDON : Printed for JOSEPH SMITH , 1642. C R royal insignia HIS MAJESTIES Message sent to the Parliament the Eighth of Aprill , 1642. Concerning his Resolution to go into Ireland , for suppressing the Rebels there . HIs Majesty being grieved at the very soul , for the calamities of His good Subjects of Ireland , and being most tenderly sensible of the false and scandalous Reports dispersed amongst the people , concerning the rebellion there , which not onlywounds His Majesty in Honour , but likwise greatly Retards the reducing of that unhappy Kingdom , and multiplies the Distractions at home , by weakning the mutuall confidence betwixt Him and his People : Out of his pious Zeal to the Honour of Almighty God , in establishing the true protestant profession in that Kingdom , and his princely care for the good of all His Dominions , hath firmly resolved with all convenient speed to go into Ireland , to chastise those wicked and detestable Rebels ( odious to God aad all good men ) therby so to settle the Peace of that Kingdom , and the security of this , that the very name of Fears and Jealousies may be no more heard of amongst us . As his Majesty doubts not , but that His Parliament will cheerfully give all possible assistance to this good work ; so He requires them and all His loving Sobjects to beleeve , That he shall upon those Considerations as earnestly pursue this Design ( not declining any hazard of his person , in performing that Duty which he oweth to the defence of Gods true Religion , and his distressed Subjects ) as for these , and only these Ends he undertakes it : to the sincerity of which profession he cals God to witnesse , with this further assurance , That His Majesty will never consent ( upon whatsoever pretence ) to a Toleration of the Popish profession there , or the Abolition of the Laws now in force against popish Recusants in that Kingdome . His Majesty hath further thought fit to advertise his Parliament , That toward this Work He intends to raise forthwith by his Commissions , in the Counties neer Westchester , a Guard for His own person ( when He shall come into Ireland ) consisting of 2000. Foot , and 200. horse , which shall be Armed at Westchester from his Magazine at Hull : At which time all the Officers and Souldiers shall take the Oaths of Supremacy and Allegiance : The charge of raising and paving wherof His Majesty desires His Parliament to adde to their former Undertakings for that war which His Maiestie will not only well accept ; But if their Pay be found too great a Burthen to His good Subjects , His Majesty will be willing ( by the advice of His Parliament ) to sell , or pawn any of His Parks , Lands , or House towards the supplies of the Service of Jreland : with the addition of these Leavies to the former of English and Scots agreed upon in Parliament , He hopes so to appear in this Action , that ( by the assistance of Almighty God ) in a short time that Kingdome may be wholly reduced and restored to peace , and some measure of happinesse . whereby he may cheerefully seturne , to be welcomed home with the Affections and blessings of all his good English people . Toward this good work , as his Majestie hath lately made dispatches into Scotland , to quicken the Leavies there for Vlster , So he heartily wishes that his Parliament here would give all possi expedition to those which they have resolved for Munster and Conaught : and hopes the encouragement which the Adventurers ( of whose interest His Maiestie will be alwayes very carefull ( will hereby receive ( as likewise by the lately signing of ● Commission for the Affairs of Ireland , to such persons for were recommended to him by both houses of Parliament ) will raise full sums of Money for the doing there of . His Majestie hath been likewise pleased ( out of of His earnest desire to remove all occasions , which do unhappily multiply M●s-understandings between Him and His Parliament ) to prepare a Bill ro be offered to them by His Attourney , concerning the Militia , whereby He hopes the Peace and Safety of this Kingdom may be fully secured , to the generall satisfaction of all men , without violation of His Maiesties iust Rights or preiudice to the Liberty of the Subiect . If this shall be thankfully received ; He is glad of it . If retused ; He calls God , and all the world to judge , on whose part the default is : one thing his Majestie requires , ( if this Bill be approved of ) That if any Corporation shall make their lawfull Rights appeare , they may be reserved to them . Before his Majestie shall part from England , he will take all due care to entrust such persons with such authority in his absence , as he shall find to be requisite for the Peace and Safety of this Kingdom , and the happy Progresse of this Parliament .
