The King's Commissioners Paper. 20. February

[ CXCI] HAving now spent 18. days with your Lordships in the Treaty upon Religion, the Mili∣tia, and Ireland; and besides the present satisfaction we have given your Lordships in those particulars, we having offered that further consideration and order be taken there∣in by His Majesty and the Two Houses of Parliament, and your Lordships having pro∣posed many important things in the said several particulars to be framed, settled, and dis∣posed by the Two Houses before a full Agreement can be established; we propose to your

Lordships, whether the two days remaining may not be best spent towards the satisfying your Lordships in those three Propositions, and the procuring a speedy blessed Peace, up∣on finding out some expedient for His Majesties repair to Westminster, that so all Diffe∣rences may be composed, and this poor Kingdom be restored to its ancient Happiness and Se∣curity: and to that purpose if your Lordships shall think fit, we are willing to Treat with your Lordships concerning the best means whereby (all Armies being first disbanded) His Majesty may with Honour, Freedom and Safety, be present with his two Houses of Par∣liament at Westminster. To which two particulars, that is, first concerning the Disband∣ing all Armies, and then for His Majesties speedy repair and residing at Westminster with Honour, Freedom and Safety, we shall (if your Lordships think fit) apply our selves; and accordingly to morrow will be ready to deliver to your Lordships some Propositions upon that Subject: And if your Lordships shall concur with us herein, we hope it will be a good inducement to procure an addition of time to this Treaty, according to His Maje∣sties Proposition in his late Letter to us, which we delivered to your Lordships.
