An Exact Description Of the manner how his Maiestie and his Nobles went to the Parliament , on Munday , the thirteenth day of Aprill , 1640. to the comfortable expectation of all Loyall Subiects . To the tune of Triumph and Ioy , &c.
COme the merriest of the nine , And now unto my aid incline , I need a little helpe of thine For now I have intent Unto the world to say and sing The praises of our royall King , Who now this present hopefull spring Hath call'd a Parliament . This happy Aprill will , I trust , Give all fiue subjects reason just Of joy to feele a pleasant gust , To yeeld them hearts content : For we may be assur'd of this , If any thing hath beene amisse , Our King and State will all redresse In this good Parliament . The order how they rode that day To you I will in briefe display , In the best manner that I may , For new my minde is bent To publish what my selfe did sée , That 〈◊〉 ( Loyall ) hearts may be Participants as well as wee I th' joy o th' Parliament . The Messengers 〈…〉 In their rich coats , on horses tall , Rode formost as their places fall , And next in order went Some Gentlement of quality , That serve the King for annuall fée , Thus every man in his degree Rode to the Parliament . Heralds in rich coats did ride , Whose proper office was to guide , And range the show on every side By place or by descent : The Trumpets made a chéerfull sound , Thus joy did every where abound , Heaven blesse King Charles , the word went round , And guide the Parliament . The Masters of the Chancery The next present themselves to th' eye , The Councell of his Maiestie , All learn'd and eloquent : Next came the Iudges gr●ve in sight , In scarlet furr'd with Miniver white , Thus every one in order right Rode to the Parliament . The Master of the R●ls i place Rode next along with gen●●e pace , A fable Uelvet gowne tha space He wore for ornament : The sons of our Nobilitie Each one according to 's degrée , In rich apparell brave to se , Did ride to th' Parliament . The Barons of the Kingdome all , In Parliament ( robes as we them call ) Each one iust as his place did fall , In noble order went By the antiquitie of blood ; The ●●●hops next made places good , Each one in 's Scarlet gowne and hood , Rode to the Parliament . The Uiscounts next inorder past As due decorum did fore-cast , Clad every one , both first and last , In fit acoutrement : Our Princely Earles in rich attire , Did cause spectators to admire The peoples hearts were set on fire For joy o th' Parliament . The noble Marquesse Winchester , Whose vertue doth on him confer Such excellencie which all prefer Most high and eminent , Did ride alone with gallant grace , As was indeed his proper place , Thus all rode on with stately pace Vnto the Parliament . Earle Marshall with a Scepter of gold , The Lord high Chamberlain brave and bold , His staffe of office then did hold , And thus in State they went : Lord Treasurer , Lord Privie Seale brave , Lord Keeper , and the Archbishop grave , These next the Prince their places have I th' Court of Parliament . Then Princely Charles ( that hopefull Lad ) Whose sight made all true subiects glad , Did ride ( as he good reason had ) In place most eminent : 〈…〉 the streame of honour bring 〈…〉 all to the head Spring , 〈…〉 Prince , fromth Prince ●oth King In this high Parliament . The next and last in honours seat Was he who made the show compleat , Our gracious King , our Charles the Great , Our ioyes sweet complement , Did ride in state to open sight , The royall band of Pensioners wait About him with guilt Polaxes bright Vnto the Parliament . The Master of the horse did lead ( On horse-backe ) in his hand , a Stéed , A horse of State t is call'd indeed : And last behinde him went The Noble Captaine , and the Guard , All in rich coats ( for this prepar'd ) Against this day no cost was spar'd To grace the Parliament . Besides all this which hath béen told ( To speake the same I dare be bold ) Though corporall eyes could not behold , A Legion did present Celestiall service to attend King Charles , and him from harm defend , The King of Kings did's Angels send T' assist our Parliament . FINIS . M. P.
