A Conspiracy so generally inhumane barbarous and cruel as the like was never before heard of in any Age or Kingdom and if it had taken effect in that fulness which was intended by the Conspirators it had occasioned the utter Ruine of this whole Kingdom and the Government thereof And however it pleased Almighty God in his unsearchable Wisdom and Justice as a just Punishment and deserved Correction unto his People for their Sins and the Sins of this Kingdom to permit then and afterwards the effecting of a great part of that Destruction complotted by those wicked Conspirators whereby many thousand British and Protestants have been massacred many thousands of others of them have been afflicted and tormented with the most exquisite Torments that Malice could suggest and all Mens Estates as well those whom they barbarously murdered as all other Good Subjects were wasted ruined and destroyed Yet as his Divine Majesty hath in all Ages shewn his Power and Mercy in the miraculous and gracious deliverance of his Church and in the Protection of Religious Kings and States so even in the midst of his Justice he was graciously pleased to extend Mercy to His Majesty and to this His Kingdom and good Subjects therein not only in mercifully discovering to the then Lords Justices by one Owen O Connelly a meer Irish-man but trained up in the Protestant Religion who out of a sense of his Duty and Loyalty to His Majesty and for the preservation of his good People and as an Effect of that Religion he was trained up in revealed that hideous and bloody Treason not many Hours before the appointed time for the execution thereof but also in preserving the said Castle and City of Dublin and some other Cities Towns and Castles in the Kingdom from the bloody Hands of the barbarous Conspirators as also in thereby rendring deliverance of the Lives of the said Lords Justices and Council and of all the British and Protestants in Dublin and in the said other Cities Towns and Castles preserved and of sundry other British and Protestants fallen into the Hands of those rebellious Conspirators and likewise in sending us Succours out of England hither by the Piety Care and Wisdom of our late Sovereign Lord King Charles the First whereby with God's Blessing the good Subjects of this Kingdom have hitherto continued safe under His mighty Protection notwithstanding the unexampled Rage and implacable Malice of those merciless Rebels Wherefore as we do most humbly and justly acknowledge God's Justice in our deserved Punishments in those Calamities which from the Counsels and Actions of those Conspirators and their Adherents have fallen upon us in this Kingdom in general so we do in like manner acknowledge that even in exercising of that his Justice he remembred Mercy also and magnified his Mercies to us in those great Blessings which we humbly confess to have proceeded meerly from his infinite Goodness and Mercy and therefore to his most holy Name we do ascribe all Honour Glory and Praise and to the end this unfeigned Thankfulness may never be forgotten but may be had in a perpetual remembrance that all Ages to come may yield Praises to his Divine Majesty for the same and have in Memory that joyful Day of Deliverance Be it therefore Enacted by the King 's most Excellent Majesty with the Assent of the Lords Spiritual and Temporal and Commons in this present Parliament assembled and by Authority of the same That the Twenty third day of October shall be kept and celebrated as an Anniversary Holiday in this Kingdom for ever and that all Persons do at that Day forbear all Bodily Labour and the Exercise of their Trades and that all and singular Ministers in every Cathedral and Parish-Church or other usual Place for Common-Prayer within this Realm of Ireland shall always upon the Twenty third Day of October say Morning-Prayer and give Thanks to Almighty God for that most happy and miraculous Deliverance and Preservation far above the Expectations of those wretched Conspirators and that all and every Person and Persons inhabiting within this Realm of Ireland shall yearly upon the Twenty third of October diligently and faithfully resort to the Parish-Church or Chappel accustomed or to some usual Church or Chappel where the said Morning-Prayer Preaching or other Service of God shall be used and then and there abide orderly and soberly during the time of the said Prayers Preaching or other Service of God there to be used and ministred And because all and every Person may be put in mind of his Duty and be then the better prepared to the said Holy Service Be it enacted by the Authority aforesaid That every Minister shall give warning to his Parishioners publickly in the Church at Morning-Prayer the Lords-day next before every such Twenty third of October for the due Observation of the said Day and that after Morning-Prayer or Preaching upon every such Twenty third of October they read publickly distinctly and plainly this present Act.
