But whereas they made Motion, that the Lords would move the King for Order to be taken for Stay of the Transportation of a great Quantity of Ordnance now ready to be transported from sundry Ports of the Realm, until the said Bill might receive Expedition, albeit their Lordships do acknowledge their good Dispositions herein, as they have observed the like generally in the whole Course of their former Proceedings for the Publick Good, yet, because the particular Reasons for this Stay are best known to that House, and it standeth with the Gravity and Dignity of that House to move the King's Majesty from themselves (they having free Liberty and Access by their Speaker); their Lordships therefore wished, that they would of themselves take Order for the moving the same to His Majesty, either by their Speaker, or by some such other meet Persons, Members of that House, as they might make Choice of; and that they should find that such of the Lords of the Council as shall be present when the said Motion shall be made unto His Majesty, would give their best Furtherance unto it; and as for the Matter itself, touching the Stay of Transportation in general, the Lords do not dissent in any fort from them, but do consent with them as in a Matter for the Publick Good.
