WHereas We have heretofore , by Our Proclamation , straightly charged and commanded , That the Laws should be put in due execution against Popish Recusants , and We have , and shall have it still in Our care , to suppresse and prevent the growth of Popery , and to use all good means that may tend thereunto , and not to countenance Papists , by any imployment or trust , by or for Vs . And whereas there are now at and neer London great Forces levied , and in levying , and Moneys raising , by way of contribution , and otherwise , towards the charge of raising , and maintaining an Army , or Forces , under pretence of the Order of Our two Houses of Parliament , not onely without Our consent , but contrary to Our severall expresse Commands , published by severall Proclamations , Letters , and otherwise . And the same Forces are actually in so much forwardnesse , as that t●ere are divers Horsemen daily Exercised , and Trained in places about London , and great numbers of Foot in raising ; and a Generall , and other principall Officers are nominated and declared , and they have accepted and taken upon them those places , and have already done severall Acts of Hostility against Vs , which cleerly appear to be a levying of War against Vs ; We have found it necessary , to raise and levy Forces , for the defence of the true Protestant Religion , Our Person , the two Houses of Parliament . And now , lest any Popish Recusants should presume to offer to serve Vs herein , or procure themselves to be listed , as Officers , or Souldiers in Our Army , without Our knowledge , and to the end that Our intention herein may be cleerly known , That whereas one principall aim of raising these Forces , is , for the defence and maintenance of the true Protestant Religion , We may not be served with Papists , as falsly and slanderously hath been objected against Vs , We do hereby declare Our expresse Will and Pleasure to be , and We do hereby straightly Command , That no Person or Persons soever being Popish Recusant , shall presume to come to Our Court , contrary to the Law in such Case provided , nor any Popish Recusant , or Papist take any Office , or Place , or List himself as a Souldier in this Service . And to the end there may be as full discovery as can be made of such as shall , contrary to this Our Proclamation , be 〈◊〉 listed into such Our service , We do straightly command and charge all Officers and Souldiers , who shall be entred or listed for this Our service , That upon the first Muster-day after they shall be so listed , they take the Oathes of Supremacy and Allegiance , both which We shall take care shall be tendered unto them according to the Law , thorowout Our Army . And if any shall continue his name in those Lists , and yet shall refuse the said Oathes , We shall not onely cashiere them , but also otherwise proceed against them , according to the Law . And as We shall be carefull that all Our Officers and Souldiers shall be duly paid , that there be no occasion or pretence of necessity amongst them to burden any of Our Subjects , So we do hereby straightly charge and command , That none of the said Officers , or Souldiers presume to take any thing from any of Our good Subiects , without due payment for the same , nor commit any unlawfull Violence or Outrage . And to all these Our Commands We expect a strict Obedience of all Our Subjects whom it may concern , as they will answer the contrary at their uttermost perill . And being thus carefull that by this Our necessary service , Our Subjects should not in any degree suffer or be wronged , so We do expect and require , That all Our Sheriffes , Iustices of Peace , Majors , Bayliffes , and all other Our Officers and Subjects , should use their best endeavours as there shall be occasion for the assistance and convenient supplies of Our said Officers , and Souldiers , with such things as shall be necessary and fit for them , at reasonable Rates and Prices .
