And the other in Answer to a Book Intituled , The Pourtraicture of his Sacred Majesty in his Solitude and Sufferings . In both which are contained sundry Treasonable Passages against Us and Our Government , and most Impious endeavors to justifie the horrid and unmatchable Murther of Our late Dear Father , of Glorious Memory . And whereas John Goodwin , late of Coleman-Street , London , Clerk , hath also published in Print , a Book Intituled , The Obstructors of Justice , written in defence of his said late Majesty . And wheras the said John Milton , and John Goodwin , are both fled , or so obscure themselves , that no endeavors used for their apprehension can take effect , whereby they might be brought to Legal Tryal , and deservedly receive condigne punishment for their Treasons and Offences . Now to the end that Our good Subjects may not be corrupted in their Iudgments , with such wicked and Traitrous principles , as are dispersed and scattered throughout the beforementioned Books , We , upon the motion of the Commons in Parliament now assembled , doe hereby streightly charge and Command , all and every Person and Persons whatsoever , who live in any City , Burrough , or Town Incorporate , within this our Kingdom of England , the Dominion of Wales , and Town of Berwick upon Tweed , in whose hands any of those Books are , or hereafter shall be , That they , upon pain of Our high Displeasure , and the consequence thereof , do forthwith , upon publication of this Our Command , or within Ten days immediately following , deliver , or cause the same to be delivered to the Mayor , Bayliffs , or other chief Officer or Magistrate , in any of the said Cities , Burroughs , or Towns Incorporate , where such person or persons so live ; or , if living out of any City , Burrough , or Town Incorporate , then to the next Justice of Peace adjoyning to his or their dwelling or place of abode ; or if living in either of Our Universities , then to the UiceChancellor of that University where he or they do reside . And in default of such voluntary delivery , which We do expect in observance of Our said Command , That then and after the time before limited , expired , the said Chief Magistrate of all and every the said Cities , Burroughs , or Towns Incorporate , the Justices of the Peace in their several Counties , and the Uice-Chancellors of Our said Universities respectively , are hereby Commanded to Seize and Take , all and every the Books aforesaid , in whose hands or possession soever they shall be found , and certifie the names of the Offenders unto Our Privy Councel . And We do hereby also give special Charge and Command to the said Chief Magistrates , Iustices of the Peace , and Uice-Chancellors respectively , That ●●y cause the said Books which shall be so brought unto any of their hands , or seized o● taken as aforesaid , 〈◊〉 vertue of this Our Proclamation , to be delivered to the respective Sheriffs of those Counties where they respectively live , the first and next Assizes that shall after happen . And the said Sheriffs are hereby also required , in time of holding such Assizes , to cause the same to be publickly burnt by the hand of the Common Hangman . And We do further streightly Charge and Command , That no man hereafter presume to Print , Uend , Sell , or Disperse any the aforesaid Books , upon pain of Our heavy Displeasure , and of such further Punishment , as for their presumption in that behalf , may any way be inflicted upon them by the Laws of this Realm .
