us by those whom we represent, most humbly to offer to Your Majesty's serious

the same into Your Royal Care, and to strengthen Yourself with such stricter
Alliances as may secure Your Majesty's Kingdoms, and preserve and secure the
said Netherlands, and thereby quiet the Minds of Your
Majesty's People."
