All such whose Habitations are within Fourscore miles of London , before the Tenth day of November next ensuing ; And all other at a greater distance , before the Four and twentieth day of November aforesaid , shall be discharged from the said Penalties : And the Commissioners for Compounding with Delinquents , are Ordered to return to the Parliament , or such as they shall appoint to receive the same , the Names of all such Delinquents as shall not within the respective days herein before limited , pay in the whole Fine imposed on them , with Interest as aforesaid , in order to the speedy Sale of their Estates .

Resolved , That all such Delinquents , who upon the setting of their Fines have had Saving to certain parts of their Estates , under several pretences , that the said Estates were litigious , Shall have liberty to Compound for such part of their Estates so saved and reserved , at the same Rate and Value that they Compounded for the other part of their Estates , if they shall perfect the same within the times limited ; viz. All such Delinquents as are inhabiting within Eighty miles of London , before the Tenth day of November next ensuing , and all others further distant before the Four and twentieth of November aforesaid ; And in default thereof , the Estate of any person or persons so saved or reserved , shall be lyable to be sold as the Lands of other Delinquents uncompounded for , unless the Commissioners for Compositions , &c. shall upon good cause shewn give further time for such saving or Reservations to continue . Resolved , That all such Delinquents , whose Compositions have been set , as shall within the respective times before mentioned discover to the said Commissioners any part of their Estate , which at the time of their Composition was under-valued or concealed , & ought to havebeen Compounded for ( shal in such case where no Information is depending , or Judgement given ) be admitted to Compound for such part of his or their Estate so under-valued or concealed as aforesaid , according to the Rates and Proportions at which they did formerly Compound , so as they pay in their whole Moneys before the Four and twentieth day of November next ensuing ; And that all such Delinquent against whom any Information is depending or Judgement given , or who shall be discovered by Information of any other person then themselves within the times before limited , shall be admitted to Compound at the Rates and Proportions following ; viz. Every person who hath formerly Compounded at a Tenth part of their Estates , shal● Compound at a full Sixth part of what is so undervalued or omitted ; Every person who hath Compounded formerly at a Sixth part , shall pay one full Third part ; And all such who formerly did Compound at a Third , shall pay one full Moyety of what is concealed or under-valued respectively , according to the present Rules for Compositions so as the said persons do pay the whole Fines to be imposed upon such omissions or under-valuations before the said Four and twentieth of November .
