<P><HI>_THat His Maje&s;ty may avoyd the great danger and com|plaints against him for folow|ing private and evil Coun&s;els. It principally at this time concernes him, not to promi&s;e or ingage him&s;elfe in any publique bu&s;ine&s;&s;e, either of State or Church without a generall or publique con&s;ent and agreement: not only of the pre&s;ent hou&s;es of both Kingdoms, but likewi&s;e the a&s;&s;ent of the City of London, and of the Common people in Generall. And therefore,</HI></P>
<P N="1">I. THat his Maje&s;ty will be plea|&s;ed with patience to expect
<PB N="2" REF="3"> from his great Councells, all &s;uch Propo&s;itions and &s;o formed into acts as may concerne the finall &s;et|tlement both of Church and State, according to their owne de&s;ires. And that his Maje&s;ty doe not in|gage or con&s;ent to any of the&s;e &s;ing|ly, or by parts, but joyntly and all|together.</P>
<P N="2">II. That his Maje&s;ty be well a&s;&s;u|red, that the&s;e Propo&s;itions and acts&punc; be with the generall con&s;ent, a&s;&s;ent, meaning and interpretati|on of both Hou&s;es of both the Kingdomes, the City of London, and the common people in gene|rall; lea&s;t a peace made and con|cluded without &s;uch a generall
<PB N="3" REF="3"> con&s;ent or a&s;&s;ent be the beginning of a new warre.</P>
<P N="3">III. That his Maje&s;ty would be gra|ciou&s;ly inclined when &s;uch Pro|po&s;itions come to his hand, to give life unto them, by his Royall a&s;|&s;ent; And if there be &s;ome &s;uch acts, which he &s;hall conceive contrary to the dictates of his con|&s;cience, contrary to his former oathes, and contrary to the Pro|te&s;tation taken by this pre&s;ent Par|liament. That then with all wi&s;|dome and moderation, he take time to con&s;ider of &s;uch. And that upon debate, he may either receive &s;atisfaction or &s;till to take time, either for the &s;atisfying or
<PB N="4" REF="4"> rectifying of his con&s;cience.</P>
<P N="4">IV. La&s;tly it is not po&s;&s;ible accor|ding to chri&s;tianity or humanity, to pre&s;&s;e any thing upon his Maje&s;ty further, unle&s;&s;e it be to give way; that &s;uch acts as his Maje&s;ty is not &s;atisfyed to pa&s;&s;e as lawes, may yet for a time limited be put in execu|tion as <HI>Probationaries,</HI> in hope with|in the time limited his Maje&s;ty may &s;atisfie his con&s;cience, either for allowing, or di&s;allowing &s;uch acts for future. And this, (if pre&s;|&s;ed) his Maje&s;ty may with wi&s;|dome, u&s;e &s;uch caution, as neither to inthrall his owne con&s;cience, nor the tender con&s;ciences of his good Subjects, who &s;hall &s;cruple
<PB N="5" REF="4"> the &s;ame. All things being thus in a faire way of compo&s;ing, it will be fit for his Maje&s;ty (if not offe|red to him) to demand and ex|pect the payment of his debts, con|tracted upon him&s;elfe, or his par|tie for his &s;ervices, as well as the debts upon publique faith. And that a generall act of oblivion be pa&s;t of all acts done on either &s;ide in order to the Warre, either by his Maje&s;ties expre&s;&s;e command, or comnis&s;ion, or by order or ordi|nance of Parliament. And per|haps it will not be improper for his Maie&s;ty to demand all the fines of his owne party, who have not formerly compounded accor|ding to the rates of &s;uch as have compounded already. That the&s;e
<PB N="6" REF="5"> fines may helpe to di&s;charge the debts of his Maie&s;ty and his inga|ged party in debts contracted upon them. But the&s;e and many others may be better upon debate as oc|ca&s;ion is offered to prevent the to|tall ruine of his Maje&s;ties partie (which it is not doubted) he is mo&s;t &s;en&s;ible of.</P>
