There was no "coronation speech" but he did take an oath: Coronation Oath of England
His opening speech to parliament in 1624? I cannot locate anything but references to it. Seems it should be somewhere?
He did have a role in what it said. This issue was much a factor in his "downfall".
The Manner of the Coronation of King Charles the First of England: At Westminster, 2 Feb., 1626
by Church of England, Christopher Wordsworth - 1892 - 147 pages
I read the above: no speech was given.
I do not know if Charles I Oath is online.
