THE DECLARATION OF His Excellency the Lord Marquis of ORMOND Lord Deputy of JRELAND and Generall of all the Forces in that Kingdome for the KING Together with the Lord INCHEQVEENE and all the rest of the Kingdome Concerning the Death of His Sacred MAJESTY who was Murdered at White-Hall the 30. of Ianuary By an usurped Power of the COMMONS of ENGLAND as they call themselves Likewise their Intentions to Crown Prince CHARLES King and ingage in His Quarrell against ENGLAND To which is added the Reasons which moved them to joyne with the Irish Rebels as they Call them in England Published by speciall Command Printed at Corke in Ireland and now reprinted 1648. THE DECLARATION c. FOrasmuch as we know and are ascertained of the Tragick proceedings and treasonable attempts put in practice by that rebellions Army of Sectaries now in England and the Command of Baron Fairfax who by Martiall power and contrary to their once protended principles for which they did at first engage which were to seate their Lawfull King upon his Throne and make him a great and glorious Prince and not to injure His Royall Person and likewise to maintaine and defend the Priviledges of Parliament and liberty of the Subject unto which engagement they were sworne which Oath they have presidiously broken by their excluding and making the Major part of the house of Commons uncapable of the trust reposed in them by the respective Counties for whom they were chosen as Members imprisoning some and denying others admittance also disabling the Lords for ever having any voice in Parliament unlesse they please to entertaine them into their Conventicle of Sectaries who are not above forty or fifty at most which be now considerable with that perjur'd Army of Rebbels and presume to call themselves the Commons of England and pretend that the supreame power of the Kingdome is in herent in them a thing before never heard of by which like aspiring 〈◊〉 they assume the power Legislative to make and 〈◊〉 Lawes They have by this pretended and new found authority 〈◊〉 a Court of Iudicature as they 〈◊〉 it which indeed is no other but Conventicle of injustice and wicked treasonable practises By which pretended Court they like imperious proud and barbarous regicids have presumed to bring their Le●ge Lord and gracious King to an illegall tryall and contrary to all Law both of God and man have condemned and tyranously laid violent hands on His Sacred Person perpetrating Murder upon him without all or any just cause O what a tyranicall cruelty was this Acted upon their King Father of the Country is it possible they can think that God will let such a infinit sin slip without revenging his blood upon such cruel murderers who have made theselves drunk with the innocent blood of their Soveraign and the best of K●ngs whose fervor and zeal to Peace and his Subjects good was ever visible even to his latest breath as may appear by his Declarations several Messages sent to his two Houses of Parliament desiring a Treaty with them that all differences might be happily composed and His three Kingdom setled in Peace and Unity which he with much desiring at length procured to Treat with his two Houses of Parliament where his alacrity and integrity to Peace was made most plaine and manifest for he was graciously pleased to yeild to all that was desired although to bind up his own hands and throw himselfe into the laps of his own Subjects and to do what they should think fit whereby to stop the bleeding o● his people in all three Kingdoms but when every mans eyes were fixt of a conclusion of the Treaty and expected peace and his late Majesties Concessions voted satisfactory and sufficient to the grounds of peace and settlement and his late Majesty thought he had been in safety he was by some Arch traytors of that trecherous Army taken away from the Isle of Wight and His body hurryed from place to place and at last unhumanely murdred by them who of right ought to have been his Subjects and to have protected his Royall Person from violence And whereas they have since his late Majesties death of famous memory by pretended Acts and Proclamations declared that it shall be high-Treason for any one to Proclaim Prince Charles who is now rightfull heyre to the Crown of England to be King of great Brittaine without their approbation which they have since manifested shall not be granted by another Act of theirs saying the Office of Kings is chargeable and withall uselesse amongst them therefore ought to be abolished which wicked and illegall practice of theirs is abominable and of right is to be shun'd by all true Subjects and good Christians who are bound by Conscience and by their Oath of Allegiance to use their best endeavours to circumvent their consultations and hellish designe which tends only to the subversion of Monarchy and setting up the rule and government of Democracy by wrongfully expelling their lawfull King and not giving to Caesar those things which be Caesars but keeping him in exile and banishment and murder rob and despoyle all his Loyall Subjects of their inheritance by that unjust sword which they have in their lawlesse hands It is not unknown to all the three Kingdoms our forwardnesse loves and affections to the Parliament of England and what hazard we have divers times sustained in behalfe of it both indangering our lives and fortunes to maintain its priviledges but now we can acknowledge it no Parliament at all neither King nor Lords being there but only a few of the Commons house and whether those rightly elected or no we are uncertain but this we know that at the death of the King the Parliament is dissolved untill the succeeding King have elected a new one But so soone as we found and did perceive that they took severall Oaths Protestations and the Covenant meerely to make a nose of wax of and cheate the vulgar and meane people deviating from their once as it seemes onely pretended principles and that by backsliding clandestine plots and trecherous designes their sole aime was to take away our late Kings life who indeed we may boldly assirm that for a vertuous liver and Kingly parts he was unparalel'd there not having been his Peere for acute wit and solid judgement amongst all his Royal predecessors in former ages But what may we really say he was too good to rule so sinfull a people therefore God in his high displeasure hath taken him away however we have a young Phoenix his Royall son Charles late Prince of Wales whom we must acknowledge for our King as we are bound by our Allegiance so to do and his Royall Cause we shall with our lives and fortunes prosecute and with our swords endeavour to establish him in despite of those proud Rebbels who did so trayterously murder his late Father to satisfie their blood-thirsty appetites To satisfie all Christian people of the Truce and
