It is humbly proposed on the behalf of the PURCHASERS OF BISHOPS , and DEANS and CHAPTERS Lands .

WHereas his late MAJESTY of blessed memory , in his Concessions upon the Treaty at the Isle of Wight , did grant , That the Purchasers of Bishops Lands should hold the same for 99 years ; and did also declare his Judgement and Condescention for the alienating Deans and Chapters Lands in Fee , for such uses as should be afterwards resolved on :

It is humbly proposed , That the Purchasers of the said Lands respectively , may hold the same for 99 years , paying one fourth part of the first Purchase-money ; or to be confirmed to them in Fee , paying one third part of the said purchase-money ; one Moiety thereof within two moneths after an Act of Parliament shall be pass'd for that purpose ; and the other Moiety within six moneths then next following : which is conceived will amount to about six hundred thousand pounds , for that the said Lands were sold for about three and twenty hundred thousand pounds ; and paying a twentieth part of the present improved Rent to his MAJESTY , or such other use as by Act of Parliament shall be appointed ; which , with the Remainder of the Possessions unsold , will raise a greater yearly Rent then formerly .

Hereby , a considerable sum of money for his MAJESTIES service , will be speedily raised ; the Kingdom so much eased , and discharged of so great a debt as three and twenty hundred thousand pounds , for which the said Lands were sold ; the Honour of Parliaments , and the Publick Faith given for the same , repaired ; as great a Revenue as formerly to his MAJESTY , or the Church , continued ; the Purchasers satisfied , their Possessions quieted ; Industry and Improvements encouraged ; no Sales , Settlements or Securities disturbed , and infinite Suits prevented .
