That it may please ye to put on short allowance all Bishops, Priests, and Deacons, that their fleshly appetites being reduced, their spiritual-mindedness may be thereby increased and so that both by their preaching and living they may set it forth, and show it accordingly;
We beseech ye to hear us, O Rulers.
That it may please ye to take to yourselves true repentance, inasmuch as ye have erred from the way of your forefathers; and amend your method of governing according to our free constitution;
We beseech ye to hear us, O Rulers.
Son of George, we beseech thee to hear us.
Son of George, we beseech thee, &c.
O House of Lords, that takest away so many tens of thousands of pounds in pensions,
Have mercy upon us.
O House of Commons, that votest away the money of the whole nation, instead of that of those only who elect you;
Have mercy upon us.
