A TRUE RELATION OF The great Plot discovered in Suffolk, against the Kingdom of England.  
Worthy Sir,  
I Having such a fit opportunity, to accompany my desires, my pen could no longer cease from paper, but thought meet, to declare itself to all true-lovers of England's prosperity. For this ensuing subject is of so great concernment, for the common preservation of the Kingdom of England, that I shall most willingly expose my life and fame to all hazard and contempt, for the welfare of my Country.  
I have observed all the wind and turn of the Malignant party, in their obstructing of this places security, ever since the beginning of these sad divided times. Sovereign favours tend principally to the enlargement of their own interests; what this place may prove in a foreign possession, which is not only an inlet to a future Conquest, but shall at present contribute most (of any particular place in the Kingdom) to the subversion of the whole Nation: it will be vast sums, and multitude of lives, that will regain it, if once lost;  
And (indeed) there was never more danger, by reason of the many Plots and Conspiracies daily contriving by the Malignant party, for the bringing in of a Foreign enemy.  
For, within these sew days, (through the divine providence of God) there hath been discovered a great Conspiracy against the whole Kingdom in general (divers eminent persons being concerned in it;) which I will briefly intimate unto you as followeth;  
Some persons of note who had formerly been in actual service against the Parliament in this Kingdom, had confederated with the enemy beyond the Seas, to have had an army transported from France & Denmark, to the Island of Lovingland, and so to have invaded the Kingdom of England, for the subversion of this Nation, and violating the Laws thereof, who (notwithstanding many difficulties and oppositions) are so firmly maintained by this present Parliament.  
But I hope, all their Machavilian Plots, and Hell bred Devices will be timely prevented, through the great vigilancy, of the well-affected party in this Island; For there is no ways left unassayed for the preservation thereof but keepeth strong guards at all the inlets, or weak places, whereby an enemy may have the advantage to land any Forces: and although their number be but small, yet they are the better able to manage it, by reason, there is not above three places, that an enemy can land at, though it be a vast and spacious place, consisting of sixteen Parishes, (abounding with all things requirable) and situated for a general accommodation of trade, having the Sea bordering upon a fourth part of it; the other parts being begirt with the great Rivers of You're and Waurney, by which the Country Comoditieses are brought unto it, and from thence transported unto all transmarine parts.  
The whole Peninsula is (as it were raised) into one entire Hill, defended towards the Sea, with Cliffs and Sànds; and on all parts by Land, surrounded with a spacious level of low grounds; amidst which level, runs the afore named Rivers, discharging themselves (with a third) into the Sea, through the said Island, by which they are all commanded:  
So that it is in accessible by Land, four passages excepted, and one by Sea, called Newton Gap; which place not improperly, for it is a gallant place of strength & pleasure, having formerly been termed Little or Low-England.  
And it is very much desired, that this place, (being of so great consequence to England) may be put in such a posture, that it may render itself defensible upon any attempt whatsoever.  
We hear, that the Earl of Montrosse is very active in Denmark, for the raising of Forces, and divers other Commanders with him, Prince Rupert doth not lie idle (in France. Most of our skilful. Pilots are gone to Dunkirk, but upon what design we know not.  
Here are divers papists within the Island it having been a place of refuge ever since the beginning of the wars.  
Thus, having acquainted you with the chiefest of our affairs in these parts, I humbly take my leave, and remain  
Yours to serve you, N. F. Loving land Island, Feb. 7. 1647.  
Much more may be declared, to illustrate and demonstrate the danger and necessity to prevent all these imminent dangers, four hundred foot soldiers maintained, will be a sufficient remedy against ensuing dangers.  
Letters were presented to the House of Commons coming from beyond Sea, which tell of strange stories, how true we know not, but the relation comes from a good hand.  
One is a letter from Poland, speaking plainly that the great Assembly or Parliament of that Kingdom have put their King under restraint for raising of forces without their consent.  
That they told him freely in open Parliament, he had forfeited his Crown, and that all his subjects are thereby discharged of their Allegiance, and are not to be furrher subject to his commands, That they have commanded the Kings Seal not to be any longer used and raised a Guard of twelve hundred to attend the King, and keep the Kingdom in Peace.  
One cause of the difference between the King of Poland and his subjects, is said to be, his endeavour to continue a war contrary to the advice of the States and Council of that Kingdom, and against the mind of the Lord Martial.
