A COPY OF THE FOURE REASONS TO diswade the King from his journey into Scotland for fourteene dayes longer . Delivered by Mr. Hollis to the Lords at a Conference , 7. August 1641. M. Hollis went up to the Lords with this Conference from the House of Commons .

I Am commanded to put you in mind what hath passed upon this occasion before , concerning the Kings journey to Scotland , that both Houses did Petition his Majesty not to begin his journey till the tenth of August , and to acquaint the Scots Commissioners therewith , who afterwards desired this House to expresse their resolutions in the affirmative , upon which the House of Commons passed a resolution , that then if his Majesty pleased to goe , they would submit unto it .

I am commanded to declare unto your Lordships that the House of Commons is desirous to submit unto his Majesties good pleasure in all things : but such is the present condition of this businesse , as it now standeth ; that they are enforced to present some further considerations to your Lordships .

That when they gave this assent , they were in hope both Armies would have been disbanded by that time ; but though there hath been all possible meanes used to that end , yet it could not be effected : so the same inconvenience doth still continue .

The treaty cannot in so short a time be finished , being returned from Scotland but three dayes since : but since it is ready to be finished , and moneys are provided , the Armies will be disbanded by that time we desire his Majesty to take his journey .

The distempers and jealousies of the Kingdome are such that they cannot be composed by passing some Act , unlesse his Majesty stay the desired time .

No course is yet taken for the government of the Kingdome in his Majesties absence , there being so many weighty things to be taken into consideration .

Upon these reasons the House of Commons have thought fit to move your Lordships to joyne with us in a Petition to his Majesty to stay his journey for 14. dayes longer , and we make no doubt but our brethren in Scotland will consider the streight we are in , and for our safety condescend to our desires . And if his Majesty yeeld thereunto , then we shall desire your Lordships to joyne with us by some expresse messenger to the Parliament in Scotland for the Kings stay for that time , which we hope will give them satisfaction .

Printed in the yeare , 1641.
