To His Highness the Prince of ORANGE.

The Humble Address of the Lieutenancy of the City of London.

WE can never sufficiently express the deep Sence we have Conceived and shall ever retain in our Hearts, that Your Highness has exposed Your Person to so many Dangers both by Sea and Land for the Preservation of the Pro∣testant Religion, and the Laws and Liberties of this Kingdom, without which unparal∣lel'd Undertaking we must probably have suffered all the Miseries that Popery and Slavery could have brought upon us.

We have been greatly Concerned that before this time we have not had any Sea∣sonable Opportunity to give Your Highness and the World a Real Testimony that it has been our Firm Resolution to venture all that is Dear to us to attain those Glori∣ous Ends which your Highness has proposed for Restoring and Setling these Di∣stracted Nations.

We therefore now Unanimously present to Your Highness our just and due Ac∣knowledgments for that Happy Relief you have brought to us, and that we may not be wanting in this present Conjuncture, we have put our selves into such a posture that (by the Blessing of God) we may be capable to prevent all ill Designs, and to preserve this City in Peace and Safety till your Highnesses Happy Arrival.

We therefore Humbly Desire that your Highness will please to repair to this City with what convenient speed you can for the perfecting the Great Work which Your Highness has so Happily begun to the General Joy and Satisfaction of us All.
