of Ireland .... may be relieved if
His Majesty and both Houses of
Parliament shall so think fit - London:
April 19 1642. 4to. pp. 8. A good
copy in modern half morocco. Wing

One suggestion made was that
“those that shall be imployed as
officers, or common souldiers in this
present war, after the war shall be
ended may have lands and tene-
ments alotted unto them there also.”
The use of the word ‘also’ stems from
the fact that moneys for pursuing
the war were being raised on foot of
future land grants. Sweeney 952.
