HIS
MAJESTIES
SPEECH
TO
THE
Gentry
of
the
County
of
YORKE
,
Attending
his
Majestie
at
the
City
of
Yorke
,
on
Thursday
the
12th
of
May
,
1642.
Gentlemen
,
I
Have
cause
of
adding
not
altering
,
what
I
meant
to
say
when
I
gave
out
the
summons
for
this
dayes
appearance
,
I
little
thought
of
these
Messengers
,
or
of
such
a
Message
as
they
brought
,
the
which
,
because
it
confirmes
mee
in
what
I
intend
to
speake
,
and
that
I
desire
you
should
be
truly
informed
of
all
passages
between
me
and
the
Parliament
,
you
shall
here
read
,
First
,
my
answer
to
the
Declaration
of
both
Houses
concerning
Hull
,
the
answer
of
the
Parliament
to
my
two
Messages
concerning
Hull
,
together
with
my
Reply
to
the
same
,
and
my
Message
to
both
Houses
declaring
the
Reasons
why
I
refused
to
passe
the
Bill
concerning
the
Militia
.
All
which
being
read
his
Majesty
proceeded
.
I
Will
make
no
paraphrases
upon
what
yee
have
heard
,
it
more
benefiting
a
Lawyer
then
a
King
,
onely
this
observation
,
since
Treason
is
countenanced
so
neere
me
,
it
is
time
to
looke
to
my
safety
:
I
avow
it
was
part
of
my
wonder
,
that
men
(
whom
I
thought
heretofore
discreet
,
and
moderate
)
should
have
undertaken
this
imployment
,
and
that
since
they
came
(
I
having
delivered
them
the
Answer
:
you
have
heard
,
and
commanded
them
to
returne
personally
with
it
to
the
Parliament
)
should
have
flatly
disobeyed
me
upon
pretence
of
the
Parliaments
command
.
My
end
in
telling
you
this
,
is
to
warne
you
of
them
,
for
since
these
men
have
brought
me
such
a
Message
,
and
disobeyed
so
lawfull
a
Command
.
I
will
not
say
what
their
intent
of
staying
here
is
,
onely
I
bid
you
take
heed
,
not
knowing
what
doctrine
of
disobedience
they
may
preach
to
you
,
under
colour
of
obeying
the
Parliament
.
Hitherto
I
have
found
and
kept
you
quiet
,
the
enjoying
of
which
was
a
chiefe
cause
of
my
comming
hither
(
Tumults
and
disorders
having
made
mee
leave
the
South
)
and
not
to
make
this
a
seat
of
Warre
,
as
malice
would
(
but
I
hope
in
vaine
)
make
you
beleeve
;
Now
if
disturbances
doe
come
,
I
know
whom
I
have
reason
to
suspect
.
To
be
short
,
you
see
that
my
Magazine
is
going
to
be
taken
from
me
(
being
my
owne
proper
goods
)
directly
against
my
will
;
The
Militia
(
against
Law
and
my
consent
)
is
going
to
be
put
in
Execution
:
And
lastly
,
Sir
Iohn
Hothams
Treason
is
countenanced
;
All
this
considered
none
can
blame
me
to
Apprehend
dangers
.
Therefore
I
have
thought
fit
(
upon
these
reall
Grounds
)
to
tell
you
,
That
I
am
resolved
to
have
a
Guard
(
the
Parliament
having
had
one
all
this
while
upon
imaginary
Iealousies
,
(
onely
to
secure
my
person
.
In
which
I
desire
your
concurrence
and
assistance
,
and
that
I
may
be
able
to
protect
you
,
the
Lawes
,
and
the
true
Protestant
profession
from
any
Affront
or
Injury
that
may
be
offered
,
which
I
meane
to
maintaine
my selfe
without
charge
to
the
Countrey
,
intending
no
longer
to
keepe
them
on
foote
,
then
I
shall
be
secured
of
my
just
Apprehensions
by
having
satisfaction
in
the
particulars
before
mentioned
.
