Die Jovis, 13 Octob. 1642.  
THis Acknowledgement, subscribed by Master Darells own hand, was by himself this day voluntarily offered to the House of Commons and read, viz.  

WHereas I Henry Darell did report, that Master Pym a Bribe of thirty pounds, I do seriously confess I never had any true ground for it, and am hearty sorry that I should report so false an untruth, And humbly crave pardon for this my great folly and offence in reporting the same words: And am so fare from justifying of them, that I am willing to give such satisfaction to this Honourable House, and to Master Pym in particular, as to this House shall seem fitting, and refer myself wholly to your mercy, it being my first Offence, and hope that it shall be hereafter a warning to me ever to commit the like.  
Henry Darell.   
Master Darell was called in, and demanded by Master Speaker, whether this Acknowledgement were his own, and under his hand: he did acknowledge it to be his own, and under his hand: And thereupon the House proceeded to this Sentence, viz.  
Resolved upon the Question, That Master Henry Darell shall make his Acknowledgement here at the Bar presently, and on the first day of the next full Term, that he shall make the same Acknowledgement at the King's Bench Bar, the Chancery Bar, the Common-Pleas Bar, and the Exchequer Bar, the Courts then sitting.  
And then Master Darell kneeling, Master Speaker pronounced the Sentence aforesaid, and in part of performance thereof, he did upon his knees make this acknowledgement, and read it upon his knees.  
Resolved upon the Question, That Master Darell shall be bailed upon such Bail as this House shall allow in the mean time till he hath performed the rest of the Sentence, and upon Certificate thereof to be discharged.   
FINIS.  

Ordered that this acknowledgement of Master Darells, and the Sentence of the Commons thereupon, be forthwith Printed.
