Address.

The Lord Ferrers reported from the Lords Committees appointed to draw an humble Address of Thanks to Her Majesty for Her most Gracious Speech, "That they had drawn an Address accordingly."

Which was read, and agreed to, as follows; (videlicet,)

"We, Your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal Subjects, the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament assembled, present our humble and hearty Thanks, for Your Majesty's most gracious and excellent Speech at the Opening this Parliament; and particularly for the great Confidence Your Majesty is pleased to place in the Duty and Affection of Your Subjects.

"We conceive it to be of the highest Importance to carry on the War with Vigour in all its Parts, and particularly in Spain, in order to procure a safe and honourable Peace; and, Your Majesty may be assured, we shall concur in all reasonable Methods to that End. And, we humbly hope, Your Majesty's great Example will engage all Your Allies to join with Your Majesty in doing their utmost to the same Purpose.

"We have the Happiness to agree entirely with Your Majesty, in the several Resolutions You have declared so plainly and affectionately to Your Parliament; and we think ourselves obliged to repeat our Thanks, for Your Majesty's great Care to transmit the Blessings of Your Reign to Posterity, by securing the Protestant Succession in the House of Hanover.

"We cannot also but have a particular Satisfaction in the Assurances Your Majesty has given, to maintain and encourage the Church of England as by Law established; which is the firmest Support of the Monarchy, and the strongest Defence against Popery.

"We have no more to add, but that we shall carefully endeavour, in all our Consultations, to proceed with that Unanimity and Dispatch as may give the greatest Weight to them; and to assure Your Majesty, that nothing shall be wanting on our Part, to satisfy the World, that, with an unshaken Zeal, we will constantly defend Your Majesty's Royal Person, Honour, and Dignity, on which our Safety and Happiness so much depend."

Ordered, That the whole House do attend Her Majesty, with the said Address.

Ordered, That the Lords with White Staves do wait on Her Majesty, humbly to know what Time Her Majesty will please to appoint, for this House to attend Her, with their Address agreed to this Day.
