the long Free Conference had with the House of Commons Yesterday, concerning the Amendments in the
Bill for abrogating the Oaths of Allegiance and Supremacy.
He said, "The Commons do insist, that, according to
the Statute 7°
Jacobi, all Persons should be enjoined
to take the Oaths; and they hold, that there should
be no Difference between the Clergy and the Laity
in taking these Oaths."
Bill for abrogating the Oaths.
After Consideration of the whole Matter, and after
a long Debate;
This Question was proposed, "Whether it shall be
left to the King, to order the Oaths to be put to such
of the Clergy as He shall think fit to exempt from
being obliged to take them, in the Manner prescribed by the Act; the said Clergy not exceeding the
Number of Twelve, and to be named by His Majesty before the 23th Day of May next?"
The Question being put, "Whether this Question
shall be now put?"
It was Resolved in the Negative.
Another Question was proposed: "Provided always, That such of the Clergy as, by their not taking
the Oaths, fall under the Pains of Deprivation, may
be provided by His Majesty with such Maintenance,
out of the Benefice, Dignity, or Ecclesiastical Promotion, as He shall think fit to appoint, for their Subsistance, not exceeding the Third Part of the Profits
and Rents of the said Benefice, Dignity, or Ecclesiastical Promotion; the said Maintenance to be payable
during the King's Pleasure, and no longer?"
The Question being put, "Whether this Question
shall be now put?"
It was Resolved in the Negative.
Then this Question was proposed, "Whether it shall
be left to the King, to allow to such of the Clergy
as shall refuse the Oaths prescribed by this Act, as
He shall think fit, not exceeding the Number of
Twelve, an Allowance out of their Ecclesiastical Benefices or Promotions, for their Subsistance, not exceeding a Third Part; and to continue during His
Majesty's Pleasure, and no longer?"
The Question being put, "Whether this Question
shall be now put?"
It was Resolved in the Affirmative.
Then the main Question was put.
It was Resolved in the Affirmative.
Then this Question was put, "Whether to agree
with the House of Commons, with this Clause
added?"
