"The sincere Concern Your Majesty hath shewed
for our Religion, the Government in Church and

the Crown in the Protestant Line; the Hazards You
have exposed Yourself to, in Concert with His late
Glorious Majesty, for maintaining our Laws and Liberties, as well as Your most gracious Assurance at

sensible their Preservation is necessary to our own,
and who are as desirous as ever to support the Character of the Crown of England, in enabling Your
Majesty to maintain the Balance of Europe.
"We cannot make suitable Returns to Your Majesty, for Your most gracious Promises of a careful
and diligent Administration for the Public Good;
which we think ourselves sufficiently secured of, by
so solemn an Engagement under Your Sacred
Word.
"Your Majesty hath been pleased to assure us of all
we could wish, and recommend to us what we ought
to desire; and, we doubt not, Your pious Intentions
will procure a Blessing from Heaven: And Your Majesty may be assured, that Resolutions so becoming a
Queen of England cannot but make the deepest Impression upon all Hearts that are true to the Interest
of their Country."
