M.DC.XC. His Majesty's MOST GRACIOUS SPEECH To both HOUSES of PARLIAMENT. My Lords and Gentlemen, I HAVE had such Assurance of your good Affections to Me, that I come now to Thank you, and particularly for the Supplies you have given Me. The Season of the Year is so far Advanced, that I can no longer Delay My going into Ireland; And therefore I think it necessary to have an Adjournment of the Parliament. And though it shall be but to a short Day, yet unless some great Occasion require it (of which you shall have due Notice) I do not intent you shall Sat to do Business until the Winter; And I hope, by the Blessing of God, We shall then have a happy Meeting. In the mean time I Recommend to you the Discharge of your Duties in your respective Countries, that the Peace of the Nation may be Secured by your Vigilance and Care in your several Stations. Then the Speaker by His Majesties Command said, My Lords and Gentlemen, IT is His Majesty's Pleasure, That you Adjourn yourselves to the Seventh Day of July next. And accordingly both Houses did Adjourn themselves to the Seventh Day of July next. FINIS.
