forth the great Apprehensions they lie under, from
the extraordinary Preparations of France to attack
them early in the Spring, and the Necessity, as they
conceived, of making an Augmentation of the Forces
of England and Holland, as the only Means to prevent the immediate Ruin which threatened their
Country; was pleased thereupon to propose some Expedients to The States General, which She hoped
might have been of Advantage to the common Interest, and relieved them in some Measure from their
just Apprehensions, without having Recourse to Her
Parliament: But those Expedients proposed by Her
Majesty to The States General not having produced
the Effect She hoped for, and The States having again
renewed their Applications to Her Majesty, with
more Earnestness than before, to assist them, in this
Time of their Danger, with an Augmentation of Her
Forces, as the only Means to disappoint the Effect
of these great and early Preparations which the
French are making against them; Her Majesty has
commanded the several Letters and Representations
which have passed between Her and The States General, upon this Subject, to be herewith transmitted
to you, that you may the better judge of the Danger
which threatens them.
"Her Majesty conceives this Matter to be of such
great Consequence, as indispensably obliges Her to
acquaint you with the present State of it, that She
may have your Advice upon it; not doubting but it
will be such as will most tend to the Honour and
Advantage of Her Majesty and Her Allies.
"St. James's, Jan'ry
4th, 170 2/3;."
