A PROCLAMATION , For all persons within Our Quarters in the County of DEVON able to bear Arms , not being otherwise imployed by His Highnesse , or dispenced withall , to attend His Highnesse now advancing in Person to meet the Rebels . AS ALSO For a Generall Supplication to be made in all Churches of DEVON and EXETER , on Sunday the 4. of Ianuary , for Gods blessing on His Highnesse , and His Forces . WHereas , upon the motion of the Enemy on this side Exeter , We have resolved in Our own Person to repair to Our Army , & to that end We resolve with all possible expedition to advance with Our Forces , hoping , by the blessing of God , to expell the Enemy from this County , We have thought fit to publish and declare this Our resolution , desiring and requiring all Loyall and able men of what degree or quality soever within Our Quarters in that County as well those of the Trained-Bands , as all others able to bear Arms , who are not otherwise imployed or dispenced with by Vs , to repair to Vs very speedily in person , to Our assistance , with such Arms as they can bring ; And We must professe that We shall impute the absence of any person , not so imployed or dispenced with as aforesaid , to want of Loyalty , or want of Courage , both which at so important a time , and upon so important an occasion , We hold equally odious . And for the procuring a blessing from God upon this Our first enterprize , which We undertake for his Service , and for the procuring a blessed Peace upon this miserable Kingdom , towards the which Our entreaties and earnest desires of mediation have been rejected , We desire that on Sunday next a generall Supplication may be made in all the Churches within Our Quarters for Gods blessing upon Vs and Our Forces , intending also to see the like Supplication solemnly made by the whole Army , when We shall have drawn it into a body . And the High-Sheriffe of Devon is to cause this Our Declaration and Proclamation to be speedily publisht in all Market-Towns and Publike Meetings in Our Quarters there , and read in all the Churches and Chappels within the said County , We having directed the like to be done in Our Dutchy of Cornwall , and hereby likewise directing the like to be done in the City of Exeter .
