TO THE KINGS Most Excellent MAJESTY : The Most Humble and Faithful ADVICE of Your Majesties ever Dutiful Subject and Servant the Bishop of Durham .

THat Your Majesty would be pleased to withdraw your Protection of those Romish Chappels , which are daily made the occasion of so much Disturbance and Mischief here , and if continued any longer , I fear , will unavoidably endanger the Peace and Safety of this Your great City , and consequently of Your whole Kingdom .

That the Archbishoprick of York , which Your Majesty hath been pleased to offer me , may be filled with some other more deserving Person : And that Your Majesty would be pleased to make another Dean of Christ-Church in Oxford , instead of Mr. Massey , who is utterly uncapable thereof by Law : That the Fellows of Sidney-Colledge in Cambridge , for whom I have so often moved Your Majesty , may have leave to elect a New Master in the place of Mr. Bassett ( he being also unqualified on the same account ) and to proceed in all other Affairs relating to that Society , according to their original Statutes and Constitutions .

That Your Majesty would be pleased to Call a Free Parliament so soon as may be , this being the only probable means for preserving Your Sacred Person , for preventing the Effusion of Christian Blood , and for establishing Your Throne , and Government both in Church and State upon sure and lasting Foundations .

N. DURHAM .
