OF a Just King, the Powrful Words de-clare Great James Presumptive and Appa-rent Heir: (The words betoken one and self-same Thing: Though some, Them would under distinction bring) Such Declaration, Henry Third of France Wisely made use of, when some gan advance Pretensive Heirs, Fourth Henry to displace, (A lawful Heir, though much remote in Race.) Such Declaration by both kings must be, An Act impulsed by Divine Decree, What good effects from first of these did flow, The Gallick Chronicles at large doe show: Checkd Henry after Care and War became Eternally great in his Fame and Name. Great Duke in this Declarement acquiesce, In sweet repose and rest thy self possess. This heavenly opening of thy Brothers Breast, (With all due Reverence be it exprest,) Hath likeness unto that in Sacred Text. Save that a Brothers ownd in stead of Son, What more than this can in the Case be done? [Who dare henceforth this Kingly Act gainsay,] Who dare against Thy Royal Highness bray, Surely the Mouths of the Tumultuous Crew, Are stopt, or else to Meanes we bid Adiew, Where a Kings word is, There is Power, (so saith The Sacred Writ on which we ground our Faith.) Henceforth of just necessity must cease Those Clamours which so much disturb Thy peace, Henceforth no Voiage over British Seas, Or cold Retirement under Scotch Degrees Needst thou to take, but still abide where Birth Thou first receivdst (passing time in Mirth) By Sovereign belovd, by Friends carest, Reverd by all, and by the Heavens blest, Exactly making good that Expectation, Of being mighty Pillar to this Nation: A Stay of State, a strong supporting Prop, Ordaind to Scale the Point of Honours top: Long since foretold of Thee, as we may see At large exprest in day Fatality. Nor canst be spard from Serene Charles his side. Being active vigilant, helpful to Guide Affairs of State by land as well as Sea, For last of which none more renownd can be, Let Arragon her Testimonial give, And Thy Dutch Victory in Sixty five. Which Higgons muse hath so inspirdly sung. Making Thee Neptunes Heros chief among. None may so well that glorious Motto claim, Of being terror of the Ocean main, (Which Louis did for Michaels Knights ordain. As once a Servant of King Edwards went With Royal Cup his Master to present, One foot did trip; being quick he did prevent (With tother legg the Fall) Godwin of Kent, Eccl. 8.4. 906. Fr. Gen. Hist. 881. Math. 3. 16. 17. See the Fatality. Ashmold Garter p. 119.
Laughing, said to the King, Evn thus, one Brother We see is ready still to help another. The King replyd, Just so might Alphred me, But, That removd by base Treachery. The Belgick Sheaf and AEsops Moral Teach, Betwixt own Brothers there should be no Breach. The Scripture saies, They must together dwell, Unions their Heaven, Disunions their Hell. Unworthy are They, whosoer they are Fraternal Union to break that dare. Then in despight of such as would disjoiyne Your persons, live together says Eloigne. When men are absent, their back friends dare say And do those things which else theyd ner essay; Divide & Impera we may English make, First separate, and then Advantage take. Long live Great Prince, who not desirest to see Thy Lieges Funeral Solemnity, But guided by an equal and just Soul, Humbly submitst unto Divine controul, Nor dost expect, but stay to see the Fate, Ordaind above, Signd from Eternal Date. We read of Louis a Montpensier Peer, Who th[o]ugh his Father had been dead 5 year[,] Yet took such Grief at seeing of his Grave, As did streight after him of life bereave; Even just so, James we may expect to Die, When Charles submits to mortal Destiny: Gods wondrous hand, after a long Exile, Them hand in hand brought back to Native Isle, When wisest men esteemed their state forlorn, They saw them stated in the Land where Born; A strange agreement they have underwent, Sometimes of Bliss, sometimes of Discontent: Why may not then Fraternal Sympathy Co-operate to dying Harmony? When thinking what theyve suffered in times past, One cant endure the other to out-last; But as theyve livd together so to die, May be their Fate ordaind by God on high; The possibility of this is no doubt, By various Authors we may make it out. Let em both live until they have out-done, That Age which David calls a wondrous one: That Royal Prophet whose Afflictions were So great, and with which James his may compare. Those Clouds are cleard, the Sun is now brast out, His Brothers Rays incompass him about; Apollos Rays, That can alone dispell All fumes and vapours though exhaled from Hell; Those Rays late issued from the Declaration, Forever making Calm and Still the Nation. Psal. 133. I. Pro. 64. 19. Gen. Hist. Fran. 792, Weav. mon. p. 598. Ps. 90, 10 in metro. See the Swans Wellcouort p. 4.
