THe House of Commons having considered, both that Paper given in to them from the Scottish Commissioners upon Saturday last, as likewise their advice lately given to His Majesty, by occasion of these present troubles, which at the entreaty of the said House, they have communicated to them, and finding therein a large testimony of fidelity to the King, of af∣fection to the State, and of wisedome for the honour, security, and peace of His Majesty, and both Kingdoms, doth hereby declare that they have herein done that which is not onely very acceptable to this House, but likewise that which is of great advantage to both Nati∣ons. And therefore have ordered, That Sir Philip Stapleton, M. Hampden, M. Fynes, M. Pym, M. Arthur Goodwin, M. Long, Sir Henry Vane Junior, or any three of them, shall return them very hearty and affection∣ate thanks in the name of this House. And this House doth further desire them, That according to their af∣fections already expressed, they will continue their care and endeavours to remove the present distractions amongst us, as also to preserve and confirm the Union between the two Nations so happily begun.
