To the Right Honourable the Noble Lord Chancellor , and Lords of His Majesties Privy Council and Thesaurie , and Lords of the Session , and all who are entrusted to serve GOD , and his Majestie in Church and State.

OBserve an Old Gentleman , Sir William Campbel , Brother to the Laird of Elengreg , who came of an Ancient Family , that has seen the Vanities of himself , in Great and Small , by great Expedience , the Wheelings and Turnings of Governments ; So now take notice seriously , both Church and State , what ye have seen , and what is Chronicled , and what Conditions that Men should walk on , assure your selves , GOD will send our Saviour to judge you all , in His Appointed time , There is no Repentance in the Grave ! Now the Almighty GOD is now sifting Men and Nations , but Honest Men should pray to GOD that King William is sent for Relief to Britain and Ireland , If you miss him , you and many will be in a mistake , and all Good Subjects ; so I leave to you all his wise Subjects to look to GOD's Glory , and the Kings good .

Therefore . Noblemen and Judges , Tour poor Servant Sir William Campbel being misfortunat in all his Attempts , and now being Old and very Tender , and has but a short time in this vain World , and he resolves ( GOD willing ) to retire himself to Good Company , to seek . Pardon from GOD for his mispent time : Now Lords and Judges , I take my leave of you all , fear GOD and keep his Commandments , Love CHRIST to plead for you , and ye will not be ashamed in this Life , nor That which is to come ; If you please to give me your Charity you may , for my Cause requires it , I being low , and meeting with Varieties and Troubles in my Young days and Old.

GOD Bless his Majestie King WILLIAM , and all his good Subjects .

I leave this in Memory To all of High and Low degree : Memento Mori . By Sir William Campbel , Brother to the Laird of Elengreg .
