Printed for Matthew Walbancke 1647.   

Hampton Court, 11 Novemb. 1647  
Colonel Whaley; I have been so civilly used by you and Major Huntington, that I cannot but by this parting farewell acknowledge it under my hand; as also to desire the continuance of your courtesy, by your protecting of my houshold-stuffs and movables of all sorts which I leave behind me in this House, that they be neither spoiled nor imbesled: only there are three Pictures here which are not mine, that I desire you to restore; to wit my wife's Picture in blue sitting in a chair, you must send to Mistress Kirk; my eldest daughters Picture copied by Belcam, to the Countess of Anglesey, and my Lady Stannops Picture to Cary Raleigh; there is a fourth which I had almost forgot, it is the original of my eldest daughter (it hangs in this Chamber over the board next to the Chimney) which you must send to my Lady Aubigny. So being confident that you wish my preservation and restitution, I rest  
Your Friend, CHARLES R.  
I Assure you it was not the Letter you showed me to day, that made me take this resolution, nor any advertisement of that kind; But I confess that I am loath to be made a close Prisoner, under pretence of securing my life. I had almost forgot to desire you to send the black Grew Bitch to the Duke of Richmond.   

Hampton Court 11 Novem. 1647.  
Montague, First I do hereby give you and the rest of your fellow's thanks for the civilities and good conversation that I have had from you; next I command you to send this my Message (which you will find upon this Table) to the two Houses of Parliament, and likewise to give a copy of it to colonel Whaley, to be sent to send to the General: likewise I desire you to send all my saddle-Horses to my Son the Duke of York; as for what concerns the resolution that I have taken my declaratory Message says so much that I refer you to it, and so I rest  
Your assured friend CHARLES Pym   

May it please Your Majesty:  
IN discharge of my duty I cannot omit to acquaint you that my brother was at a meeting last night with eight or nine Agitators, who in debate of the obstacle which did most hinder the speedy effecting of their designs, did conclude it was Your Majesty, and as long as Your Majesty doth live you would be so; and therefore resolved, for the good of the kingdom, to take your life away; and that to that Action they were well assured that Master Dell and Mr. Peter's (two of their preachers) would willingly bear them company, for they had often said to these Agitators, Your Majesty is but a dead dog: My prayers are for Your majesty's safety; but do too much fear it cannot be whilst you are in those hands.  
I wish with my soul Your Majesty were at my house in Broadstreet, where I am confident I could keep you private till this storm were over, but beg Your majesty's pardon, shall not presume to offer it as an advice; it is only my constant zeal to Your Service, who am  
Your majesty's dutiful Subject, E. R. Novemb. 9 1647.
