THE WELSHMANS REPLICATION, To a Petition and Protestation made in vindication of her defamed Reputation. Ann. Dom. 1641. FOr, whereas to her create disgrace and defamation, a Petition and Protestation hath been made and framed py idle and frantic wits, that reflects not only upon her own proper person, but her whole Country, as well of te Shentility as Commonalty, which her cannot hear in such deriding and shearing manner cried up and down te streets, but her was enforced to vindicate her reputation therein publicly by writing, and if not by te same prevented, it may in time coming be an occasion of creater trouble. Put it is not her particular case only, to pe apused and scandalised py such Pamphlets, put te Autors thereof have pin so prodigal, as to apuse not only herself, and te rest of her cousin's Countrymen, put also tivers teserving members of te English state as well create persons as lower, whose dispositions have not agreed to every one's humour; yea, they have not pin ashamed to apuse her King, queen, and Prince, put Nobility and High Court of Parliament, which if they pe suffered without punishment, such danger may arise poth to City and Country, as was hard to appease. These foul apuses in printing such pooks, under colour either of Parliament proceed; or Irish News, hath produced a create scandal over te whole Kingdom, which her hairs is also taken notice of py Outlandish Nations. Her also was never read such printing in former Parliaments without power of the same, put now poor fellows and pretended writers pends their endeavours to devise scandalous pooks, pe they of what Nature or quality soever, pe it of never such ill consequence, be it against never so create and venerable Pishits. Is there put te least thing done in Parliament, nay put a tale or thought of such a thing of proceeding against any man whatsoever, poe he Lord or Peer, if not py them fancied, put present a pook is made of them, if they have put te name of the person, it was to her a could reason to make and create a Pamphlet of them. Put pless me God, this is not all, her tivelish and mortal enemies perform; te waters are acquainted with the affections of the people, how they stand inclined, who was ready to take part with her foes and who not; py which such remote enemies that have intelligencer in her King's Provinces, may know te better how to compass their designs in agitation against her Person and Country, which is of create advantage to her enemies poth public and private. Her was therefore earnestly entreat, that this her writing, showing her intention to defend her reputation may be respected, that such pooks which tend only to te stirring up strife and dissension, may not again pe ritten or published to her discrace and discredit. Her affections are no ways tardy to any thing tat may prove profitable and necessary to her advancement in her Country and te English people in their Britannicall glory and fame. Her endeavours shall always comply with her could King and his high Court of Parliament in in settling of peace and quietness, which her was ever apide in all her King's nations, her shall pe willing to lose her own dear person and coods in any service when her was commanded in maintenance thereof. Her was sensible with could feeling, tat te authors of these pooks are shearing and pabling poor rogues, desirous in their tivelish works to please the times, poe it crooked or strait. Her is so well literated in latter examples, tat py examples her can make manifest what her say, and defend it to pe could. Te troubles petween England and Scotland, which nation hath since approved themselves loyal and faithful subjects to their could King, and that all they did in taking up Arms, was only in defence of their Religion, Laws, and Liperties of that Kingdom, which tivelish persons seeked to testroy. And during these troubles, what evil pooks and scandalous papers were printed and published in disgrace; and contrariwise, what pooks were devised in praise and honour of te Pishits, and others in create places of Authority in Church and State, that were incendaries in those dissensions. And since the meeting of this plessed Society, that there is by the wisdom thereof a Peace concluded petween poth Countries, her perceives contrary pooks made in honour of the Scots, and defamation of malefactors, py which her well sees these fellows will do any thing, right or wrong. Put her will say no more put this, if her desires pe not py this writing considered, her was intent in humility to pe a Petitioner in pehalf of herself and Country, to the Parliament for relief, and punishing te Autors of these abuses.
