My Lords and Gentlemen,
I Thought it requisite to acquaint you with what I have done now this day; which is, That I have Established a new Privy-Council, the Constant number of which shall never exceed Thirty.
I have made choice of such Persons as are Worthy and able to Advise Me, and am Resolved in all My Weighty and Important Affairs, next to the Advice of my Great Council in Parliament (which I shall very often Consult with) to be Advised by this Privy-Council.
I could not make so great a Change without acquainting both Houses of Par∣liament.
And I desire you all to apply your selves heartily, as I shall do, to those things which are necessary for the good and safety of the Kingdom, and that no time may be lost in it.
