March 26. 1643.

HIS Majesty knows not what proportion of His Revenue hath been made use of by His two Houses of Parliament, but He hath reason to believe that if much of it hath not been used, very much remains still in their hands, His whole Revenue be∣ing so seized and stopped by the Orders of one or both Houses, even to the taking away of His Mony out of His Exchequer and Mint, and Bonds (forced from His Cofferers Clerks) for the Provision of His Majesty's Houshold, that very little hath come to His Majesty's use for His own support. He is well contented to allow whatsoever hath been employed in the maintenance of His Children, and to receive the Arrears due to himself, and to be sure of His own for the future.

He is likewise willing to restore all Monies taken for His Majesty's use by any Autho∣rity from Him, upon any Bills assigned to other purposes; His Majesty being assured He hath received very little or nothing that way: and expects that satisfaction be made for all those several vast summs received and diverted to other purposes by Orders of one or both Houses, which ought to have been paid upon the Act of Pacification to His Subjects of Scotland, or employed for the discharge of the Debts of this Kingdom, and by other Acts of Parliament for the relief of His poor Protestant Subjects of Ireland.
