his
Speech
in

of

in
SCOTLAND
,
Octob.

Concerning
the
Kings
returne

My
Lords
,
OF
this
most
Honorable
Convocation
,
my
bounden
duty
commandeth
me
to
bee
a
Speaker
,
which
as
yet
have
alwayes
bin
silent
,
and
which
is
not
concerning
any
meane
matter
,
or
the
affayres
of
so
little
consequence
,
but
that
it
concernes
both
Kingdomes
,
and
my
owne
particular
affront
at
my
first
comming
to
this
Assembly
.
But
first
,
I
begin
in
my
Kings
behalfe
,
who
hath
beene
present
here
so
long
,
that
others
bemoane
to
my
knowledge
,
his
absence
.
You
cannot
but
thinke
my
Lords
,
that
England
will
be
contented
without
their
Soveraigne
,
for
a
body
without
a
head
,
what
is
it
but
dead
,
CoĢmissioners
are
left
behind
it
is
true
,
but
yet
the
Land
receives
the
more
courage
while
their
King
is
present
,
concerning
State
affayires
,
then
is
to
be
conceived
they
can
,
he
being
absent
.
I
very
well
know
,
that
when
his
Majestie
came
first
hither
,
it
was
not
his
Royall
intent
to
stay
so
longe
,
but
promised
a
speedy
returne
,
which
is
well
known
unto
your selves
,
as
others
,
and
yet
doe
I
perceive
that
you
are
all
sicke
of
a
lingring
disease
,
that
I
am
forced
to
confesse
that
there
have
many
great
disturbances
concerning
the
State
,
and
many
Treacheries
are
daily
discovered
,
but
yet
my
Lords
consider
,
distractions
are
as
well
in
England
and
Ireland
,
as
in
this
Kingdome
,
Religion
there
claymes
its
due
,
which
is
to
be
preferred
before
a
private
danger
,
which
is
both
wicked
&
pernicious
to
the
Common
wealth
.
The
one
may
destroy
some
perticular
persons
,
but
the
other
destroyes
a
whole
Commonwealth
,
where
but
in
part
a
Kingdome
halts
concerning
Religion
,
great
danger
must
needs
hang
over
the
head
of
the
whole
,
as
long
as
errour
is
crowned
,
truth
must
consequently
be
dispossessed
of
its
right
and
it
behoves
a
King
to
defend
the
right
.
Why
is
our
Soveraigne
stiled
the
defender
of
the
faith
,
but
to
defend
the
righteous
&
just
,
for
where
there
is
neither
right
nor
justice
,
Faith
cannot
subsist
.
To
bring
the
first
part
of
my
intents
to
a
period
,
it
is
requisite
that
the
returne
of
the
King
be
no
longer
delayd
.
Let
not
England
be
deceived
any
longer
of
its
diurnall
expectation
,
least
danger
be
heaped
on
your
heads
,
for
why
it
is
already
suspected
,
that
you
keepe
him
here
for
no
Loyall
intents
.
Although
I
must
confesse
that
his
Entertaynement
hath
beene
such
amongst
you
;
that
Envy
it selfe
,
can
finde
no
just
cause
to
complaine
,
and
ever
since
his
Majestie
hath
beene
here
,
you
cannot
deny
,
but
that
he
hath
beene
willing
to
condiscend
to
your
Demands
.
The
Castle
of
Edenburgh
is
discharged
of
all
it's
forces
,
the
Souldiers
are
disbanded
,
and
the
Ordinances
dismounted
,
although
Carleile
as
yet
have
not
yeelded
to
doe
the
like
,
yet
no
wtong
is
offered
by
them
,
but
they
wish
well
to
both
Kingdomes
,
and
the
Soveraigne
thereof
.
His
Majestie
subscribes
to
any
thing
that
is
Lawfull
,
and
hath
yeelded
to
all
things
hitherto
according
to
justice
,
and
he
being
absent
hath
given
his
power
into
your
hands
,
wherefore
it
is
now
requisite
my
Lords
,
that
he
returne
home
into
England
,
all
delay
being
put
aside
,
so
shall
you
stop
the
mouthes
of
all
which
be
apt
to
report
the
worst
.
Now
my
Lords
,
give
me
way
to
speake
for
my selfe
,
for
I
have
hitherto
spoken
in
the
behalfe
of
my
Soveraigne
the
King
.
When
first
I
intended
,
according
to
my
degree
,
to
take
my
place
in
this
house
of
Parliament
,
both
my selfe
,
and
the
Marquisse
of
Hamilton
were
disturbed
,
and
must
not
be
permitted
hither
without
a
subscribing
to
the
Covenant
,
which
command
of
yours
wee
seemed
not
to
disobey
.
And
yet
daily
doe
I
heare
mutterings
and
murmurings
,
as
if
both
of
us
were
unworthy
to
receive
such
honours
,
and
blame
me
not
,
if
at
this
time
you
perceive
me
untongue-tyed
,
so
much
as
now
at
length
I
am
forced
to
speake
.
Can
it
bee
the
lowlinesse
or
basenesse
of
our
births
,
which
doe
force
such
ill
conjectures
of
us
,
or
have
you
knowne
us
to
be
either
Traytors
or
Rebels
to
our
King
or
Countrey
,
from
whence
I
wonder
then
doth
issue
,
such
unheard
of
Rumors
,
I
thinke
,
nay
I
dare
avouch
it
,
that
neither
of
us
in
a
just
and
right
cause
would
be
Tymerous
to
loose
our
bloods
in
your
defence
.
My
Lords
,
let
not
Loyall
hearts
be
accounted
as
those
which
be
treacherous
,
let
Caesar
have
his
due
,
and
let
not
the
just
be
wronged
,
I
know
that
there
be
some
here
present
,
which
wonder
how
my
excitated
passion
,
could
be
so
long
cohibited
,
I
have
now
utteedr
my
mind
,
judge
of
it
as
your
Lordships
shall
please
;
my
Conclusion
shall
bee
as
I
said
before
,
that
Caesar
may
have
his
due
,
and
that
the
just
may
not
be
wronged
.
FINIS
.
