TO The Right Honourable, the House of PEERES, now assembled in PARLIAMENT. The Humble Petition of JAMES Archbishop of ARMAGH.

Humbly sheweth,

THat whereas your Lordships were pleased to employ your Petitioner in preaching before you on the Fast-day, the 22. of December last: (which service, according to his mean ability, he was carefull to performe:) so it is, that one Iohn Nicholson, having got into his hands a collection of some rude and incoherent Notes of that Ser∣mon, took the boldnesse to publish the same (under the Title of Vox Hiberniae) as a true Relation of that which was uttered before your Lordships that day. Which be∣ing in many places void of common sense, & in the whole every way unanswerable un∣to what vvas fit to have been delivered before so Honourable and judicious an Audience,

His humble request is, That your Lord∣ships would be pleased, to call in that sup∣positions Pamphlet, &c.
