MAY IT PLEASE YOUR MOST EXCELLENT MAIESTY .

THE over-ruling hand of God having so wonderfully brought your Sacred Majesty to Reign over us , after so long and so unjust detaining of your Rights , we cannot but express our rejoycings in a thankfull acknowledgement of his mercy for so great a blessing , especially being accomplished without effusion of bloud ; and because we cannot conceive any thing can so well provide for the continuing safety of your Majesty and People , as the restitution of Religion , under the ancient apostolical Government by Bishops , according to the undoubted Laws of this Kingdom , so highly asserted by Your Royal Father of blessed Memory ; and the enjoyment of the civill Rights in the due execution of the Law ;

We Therefore humbly implore your Majesties Piety and Justice , for the full attaining these great Ends in the settlement of Church and State , in which your Majestie shall not want the Prayers and subservient endeavours of ,
