WHereas divers Persons , bearing an inward Hatred and Malice against Our Person and Government , and ambitious of Rule and places of Preferment and Command , have raised an Army , and are now traiterously and rebelliously , ( though under the specious pretence of Our Royall Name and Authoritie , and of the defence of Our Person and Parliament ) marching in Battell Array against Vs their Liege Lord and Soveraign , contrary to their Dutie and Allegiance , whereby the common Peace is like to be wholly destroyed , and this flourishing Kingdom in danger to perish under the miseries of a Civill War , if the malice and rage of these persons be not instantly resisted : And as We do , and must relie on Almightie God ( the Protector and Defender of his Anointed ) to defend Vs , and Our good People against the malice and pernicious designes of these men , tending to the utter ruine of Our Person , the true Protestant Religion , the Laws established , the Propertie and Libertie of the Subject , and the very being of Parliaments ; So We doubt not but Our good People will in this necessitie Contribute unto Vs , with all Alacritie and Cheerfulnesse , their assistance in their Persons , Servants and Money , for the suppression of the same Rebellion : And therein We cannot but with much contentment of heart acknowledge the Love and Affection of Our Subjects of Our Countie of York , and divers other Counties , in their free and ready assistance of Vs ; which We shall never forget , and Our Posteritie will , as We Hope , ever remember for their good . Neverthelesse , in this Our extream necessitie , though We have been most unwilling , We are now inforced for Our most just and necessary defence , again to call and invite them , and all other Our Subjects , of the true Protestant Religion , residing on the North side of Trent , or within twentie Miles Southward thereof , whose hearts God Almightie shall touch with a true sense and apprehension of Our sufferings , and of the ill use which the Contrivers and Fomenters of this Rebellion have made of Our Clemency , and desire of Peace , That according to their Allegiance , and as they tender the safetie of Our Person , the Propertie of their Estates , their just Liberties , the true Protestant Religion , and Priviledges of Parliament , and indeed the very Being of Parliaments , they attend Our Person upon Munday , the two and twentieth day of this instant August , at Our Town of Nottingham , Where , and when We intend to erect Our Standard Royall , in Our just and necessary Defence , and whence We resolve to advance forward for the suppression of the said Rebellion , and the Protection of Our good Subjects amongst them , from the burthen of the Slavery and Insolence , under which they cannot but groan , till they be relieved by Vs . And We likewise call , and invite all Our Subjects , of the true Protestant Religion , in the remoter parts of this Our Kingdom , to whom notice of this Our Proclamation cannot so soon arrive , That with all speed possible , as they tender the forenamed Considerations , they attend Our Person in such place , as We shall then happen to Encamp ; And such of Our said Subjects , as shall come unto Vs ( either to Our said Town of Nottingham , or to any other place , where We shall happen to Encamp ) Armed , and Arrayed with Horse , Pistolls , Muskets , Pikes , Corslets , Horses for Dragoons , or other fitting Arms and Furniture , We shall take them into Our Pay , ( such of them excepted , who shall be willing , as Voluntiers , to serve Vs in this Our necessity without Pay . ) And whosoever shall , in this Our Danger and Necessity , supply Vs either by Gift , or Loan of Money , or Plate , for this Our necessary Defence ( wherein they also are so neerly concerned ) We shall , as soon as God shall enable Vs , repay whatsoever is so lent , and upon all Occasions Remember , and Reward those Our good Subjects , according to the measure of their Love and Affections ot Vs and their Countrey . Given at Our Court at York the twelfth day of August , in the eighteenth yeer of Our Reign . 1642. ¶ God save the King . ❧ Imprinted at York by ROBERT BARKER Printer to the Kings most Excellent MAJESTIE : And by the Assignes of JOHN BILL .
