Message to H. C. that the Lords agree to the Vote against Government by a Popish Prince;
A Message was sent to the House of Commons, by Sir Miles Cooke and Mr. Metham:
To let them know, that the Lords unanimously concurred with them in their Vote of the 29th of January, "That it has been found by Experience to be inconsistent with the Safety and Welfare of this Protestant Kingdom, to be governed by a Popish Prince."
and with Amendments to their Vote, about K. James's abdicating.
And to carry down the Amendments to the Vote of the 28th of January: In the 8th Line, instead of the Word ["abdicated"], to insert the Word ["deserted"]; and to leave out the Words ["and that the Throne is thereby vacant"] in the 9th Line, to which the Lords do not agree.
