The Lord Keeper by the King's command, spake next:
... Concerning the Duke of Buckingham, his Majesty hath commanded me
to tell you that himself doth know better than any man living the
sincerity of the Duke's proceedings; with what cautions of weight and
discretion he hath been guided in his public employments from his
Majesty and his blessed Father; what enemies he hath procured at home
and abroad; what perils of his person and hazard of his estate he ran
into for the service of his Majesty, and his ever blessed Father;
and how forward he hath been in the service of this House many times
since his return from Spain. And therefore his Majesty cannot believe
that the aim is at the Duke of Buckingham, but findeth that these
Proceedings do directly wound the honour and judgment of himself
and of his Father. It is therefore his Majesty's express and final
commandment that you yield obedience unto those directions which you
have formally received, and cease this unparliamentary inquisition,
and commit unto his Majesty's care, and wisdom, and justice the
future reformation of these things which you suppose to be otherwise
than they should be....
