In which the King's Ague
August: The 6th, the count de Mayan, envoy extraordinary from the duke of Savoy, had his audience of their majesties at Windsor.
The 20th, his majestie hath been pleased to change the title of earl of Newberry, which he had conferred on the lord Gerard of Brandon, to that of earl of Mackelsfeild.
The same day the lady Ann and her sister the lady Isabella embarked on their majesties yachts at Greenwich, in order to goe for Flanders, to visitt their royall highnesses.
About this time his majestie was taken with a great cold at Windsor, which did very much indispose him for some time, and prov'd afterwards to be an ague, of which he had severall fits.
The 27th, one David Lewis, who was some time since convicted at Monmouth for being a popish preist, was this day executed at Usk in Monmouthshire, according to the sentence against him.
