If limita- q tions 37 6 APPENDIX tions continue to be fpoke of, I entreat you upon all nc- cefTary occafions, to reprefent on my part to the King, the aflurances he gave me of his not confenting to a thing fo prejudicial to ail the royal family, and which would draw after it the ruin of the monarchy. Tranjlation. Prince of Orange to Sir Leoline Jenkins. PreJJes the par- liament Jhall not be diffohed. Hague, 28 January, l68f. " T^ VERY body here was furprized with the prorogation of the parliame...nt, though they can very well un- derftand that the King was forced to it in fome manner by their vehement proceedings. But I cannot fufficiently exprefs to you the great fear we are in of a longer proro- gation or a diflblution. What will be the effects of it in the kingdom you can judge better than me, although here we have reafon to fear they will be very fatal to the affairs of Chriftendom. I hold thefe affairs to be en* tirely ruined, and abandoned to thofe who have any in- tention to make themfelves matter of them: And if peo- ple perfuade themfelves that when a new parliament is called it will not have the fame fentiments, that is a thing which cannot enter into my mind ; the experience of the part has fhewn clearly enough, that inftead of bein^ more moderate they have always pufhed things a greater length.
