In pursuance of this Paper, the most part of the next day, being the last of the Treaty, was spent in Dispute between the Divines; and after, their Commissioners deli∣vered in this Paper. 22. Feb.

[ LXXI] HAving the last night given in a Paper unto your Lordships, wherein we signified that we doubted not but that you were fully satisfied that Episcopacy was not Jure Divino, we are the more confirmed in it, because your Lordships have since that time given us nothing in to the contrary: And we hope we have by clear Arguments from Scripture and Reason this day likewise satisfied you, that the Government by Arch-Bishops, Bishops, &c. which we desire to be taken away by this Bill, is unlaw∣ful; and that the Government which we desire to be established is agreeable to the Word of God. And therefore we desire your Lordships to agree to the passing of this Bill, and to give us your full and clear Answer to this and the rest of the Propositions concerning Religion.
