The Resolutions of the Army , against the King , Kingdome and City . Iuly 15. 1648. at 8 of the Clocke in the Morning .

MEMORANDVM , That upon the day above set , Iohn Dias one of Colonell Whaleys Regiment , and Kinsman , did utter these speeches following :

That the resolution of the Army was to fight for themselves , against all that should oppose them ; and that they resolved not to bee governed by a King , and that nothing vexed them more , then the Parliaments recalling their Declarations of making no more addresses to the King .

And being asked why they did not declare ; he answered ,

That yet it was no time , but that shortly , hee did not doubt , but that all would be their owne , and then they would make their resolutions knowne .

It was replied , that if the Army should thus declare , it was likely the City and Kingdome would rise . He answered ,

They regarded not the City , but could fire it at pleasure .

It was likewise inquired , How the Generall had performed his word with the King and Kingdome , in re-establishing the King , and restoring the Kingdome to peace . He answered ,

The Generall never intended any such thing ; and that for the personall Treaty the Army would not suffer it , because the City would thinke they gained the honour of it ; and that the Parliament did Vote the personall Treaty only to delude the people , and to keep them in suspence while they had done their businesse abroad .

Hee likewise sayd , Hee should ( or hoped ) to see the City on fire shortly . He further sayd , That if the Kings Revenew were tenne times so much more , it were the better for them ; for the Crowne Land would make many of the soldiers Gentlemen : and if we conquer you , then you shal be our slaves ; and if you conquer us , wee wil be your slaves ; and further he sayd , that this was not onely his sence , but likewise the sence of the whole Army .
