SPEAKERS SPEECH On Thursday , the thirteenth of May , 1641. as it was delivered to the Kings Majesty , before the Lords in Parliament . At the presenting of these three BILLS , viz. An Act For the shortning of Michaelmas Term . For the pressing of Marriners for the Kings Ships . For the remainder of the six entire Subsidies . LONDON , 〈…〉 Anno 1641. Mr. SPEAKERS SPEECH On Thursday , the thirteenth of May , 1641. as it was delivered to the Kings Majestie , before the Lords in Parliament . May it please your most excellent Majestie , THe great security of the Kingdome , rests in the happy concurrence of the King and people , in the unity of their hearts . These joyned , safety and plenty attends the Scepter ; but divided , distraction and confusion , as Bryers and Thornes over-spreads , and makes the la●d barren . No peace to the King , No prosperity to the people . The duties and affections of your subjects are most transparant , most cleere in the cheerfull , and most liberall contributions , given to knit fast this union with the bond of peace . The Treasures of the privie purse , are but the supplies of Fancies , warranted by a common Interest ; But the publick Tribute given by common assent , supports Royall Dignitie , is sheltered under the wings of Prerogative , and by that power covered from the eyes , from the touch of deceivers . In these wee render Caesar , what is due to Caesar , and Tribute to whom Tribute belongeth . The proper inscription of the Crown , is borne here , and censures those malignant spirits that dare whisper , ( nay ) into the eares of sacred Majestie , that our selves only , not your sacred person , not your Royall posterity , are the supreame objects of the givers . The preservation of the publick union , the supply of your Armies , the distresses , miserable distresses of the Northern parts , the common Calamities of the times , begat the consideration of this Bill , ( the remainder of the six entire Subsidies , happily presented to your sacred Majestie , by this unworthy hand ) the first vote advanced a credit to us , to issue them for the use of your sacred Majestie . The full perfection addes growth to that credit , and enables us to return to your sacred Majestie , as to the Ocean , the Tribute due to Iustice and Soveraignty . These are the vast earnests of our desires , which take their rise from the due regard , from the safety of your Throne , of your posterity . Your Royall assent stamps your Image heere , and makes this yours , and yours only , which I by the commands of the Commons humbly beseech of your sacred Majestie . FINIS .
