Covenant Covenanting Lords and Commons Join In Church Oath
In Westminster the House of Lords and Commons take the Covenant after a morning sermon. Nobles including the Earls of Warwick and Northumberland join, with others to follow. A peremptory day is set for holdouts to take the Covenant or face action. A mission to Leeds and Dublin is noted, while a French ambassador’s carriage is searched near Oxford and a dispute with the guard erupts.
