Report of Address.
The Earl of Sunderland reported from the Lords Committees, an humble Address to be presented to Her Majesty, from this House, pursuant to the Order Yesterday.
Which Address was read, as follows; (videlicet,)
"May it please Your Majesty,
"We, Your Majesty's most dutiful and obedient Subjects, the Lords Spiritual and Temporal in Parliament
assembled, with Hearts full of Joy, beg Leave to congratulate Your Majesty, upon Occasion of the Many
great Successes obtained by Your Majesty's Arms, and
those of Your Allies, in all Places, during this wonderful Year. We could not hope for any Thing more
glorious, than the opening the Campaign by the evermemorable Victory gained at Ramellies, under the
Command of Your Majesty's wife and valiant General
the Duke of Marlborough; and nothing could be more
seasonable, at the Close of the Campaign, than the
compleat Victory gained by the Duke of Savoy and
Prince Eugene, before the Walls of Turin. The illustrious Consequences of those Two Battles made it
impossible for Your Enemies to disguise their Losses;
and demonstrated to the World, that never any Generals better understood how to make Use of their
Success. And if we, Your Majesty's Subjects, should
not do all that lies in our Power, towards improving
the Advantages which the Divine Providence has
given to Your Majesty and Your Allies; we should
shew ourselves unthankful to God, inexcusable to
Your Majesty, and manifestly wanting to our Country,
and the common Cause of Europe.
"We cannot sufficiently express the universal Pleasure and Satisfaction of Your People, upon the public Declaration which Your Majesty, in Concert with
The States General, made to the Ministers of the other
Consederate Princes, "That no Negotiations of Peace
should be entered into, but in Conjunction with all
the Members of the Grand Alliance." This generous
Method will prevent the indirect and dangerous Practices of the common Enemy, will put a Stop to clandestine and corrupt Transactions; and must not only
remove all present Jealousies from the Allies, but
create in them a lasting Confidence and Reliance on
Your Honour and Justice.
"Your Majesty's Example, and that of The States
General, ought to inspire all the other Allies with a
noble Emulation of acting with the like Vigour. If
any of them have been failing for the Time past, we
hope Your Majesty will find proper Means to let
them see, that the only right Amends they can make
to the Cause of Liberty, is by doubling their Efforts
at this important Conjuncture.
"This will be the true Way to obtain such a Peace
as all good Men desire; which may secure to Your
Majesty's Subjects the Protestant Succession, and all
the Advantages of Trade and Commerce; may restore
the whole Monarchy of Spain to King Charles the
Third; may fix such a Barrier for The States General
(in whose Security we must always think the Interest
of England is engaged) as may be to their just Satissaction; and may procure such Terms and Conditions
for all the Allies, as may be just, safe, and honourable; such a Peace as may be durable and lasting, by
reducing effectually the exorbitant Power of a Prince,
whose restless Ambition nothing could satisfy, and
who has always despised the Obligations of the most
sacred Leagues and Treaties.
"Most Gracious Sovereign;
"We cannot omit to make our most thankful Acknowledgements, of our universal Happiness under
Your just and mild Government; of your true Zeal
for the Safety and Honour of the Church of England;
of your great Care for the due Administration of Justice, and Your tender Regard for the Properties and
Liberties of Your People; but, in a particular Manner,
we must own, with all Gratitude, Your Majesty's
Wisdom and Foresight, as well as Your Goodness, in
Your Royal Endeavours, to bring to pass an entire and compleat Union of Your Two Kingdoms of
England and Scotland. May God Almighty make
these Your glorious Designs successfull and may Your
Majesty long reign over us, to see the happy Fruits
of them, in the Safety, Tranquillity, Wealth, Honour;
and flourishing Estate, of Your Majesty's united People!"
To which the House agreed.
Ordered, That the whole House do attend Her
Majesty, with the said Address.
It is Ordered, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal
in Parliament assembled, That the Lords with White
Staves do attend Her Majesty, humbly to know when
Her Majesty will please to be attended, with the Address

Thanks of the House to be given to the D. of Marlborough.
It is Ordered, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal
in Parliament assembled, That the Thanks of this House
shall be given to his Grace the Duke of Marlborough,

do give his Lordship the same, when his Grace is in his
Place in this House.
