apprehended The three months relate to the time of the Offenders being apprehended whereas by the Act he cannot be required to abjure until three months after his apprehension and he turns the three months after his apprehension into three months after his arrival All great mistakes and fit to be taken notice of by Justices of Peace whose part it is to require the submission and abjuration that they may not be misled in the Execution of this part of their Office by trusting to that Abridgment Required to submit within what time Being thereunto required by the Bishop c. If the Offender be not before the end of the three months next after his apprehension required by the Bishop a Justice of Peace or the Minister or Curate to make such submission he cannot be required afterwards nor be compelled to abjure by force of this Act. But if he be required within the three months to make submission and refuse he may be at any time afterwards warned or required to abjure Vide Stat. 35 Eliz. cap. 1. Sect. 2. Abjure this Realm of England c. The Oath of Abjuration may be in this form or to this effect Oath of Abjuration You shall swear that you shall depart out of this Realm of England and out of all other the Kings Majesties Dominions And that you shall not return hither or come again into any of his Majesties Dominions but by the Licence of our said Sovereign Lord the King or of his Heirs So help you God Stamford 119. 120. Co. 3. Inst 217. Wilkinson P. 66. hath set down another form upon this Statute much resembling that heretofore used at the Abjuration of a Felon mutatis mutandis in these words This hear you Sir Coronor that I J. M. of H. in the County of S. am a Popish Recusant and in Contempt of the Laws and Statutes of this Realm of England I have and do refuse to come to hear Divine Service there read and exercised I do therefore according to the intent and meaning of the Statute made in the 35th year of Queen Elizabeth late Queen of this Realm of England abjure the Land and Realm of King Charles now King of England Scotland France and Ireland and I shall hast me towards the Port of P. which you have given and assigned to me And that I shall not go out of the highway leading thither nor return back again and if I do I will that I be taken as a Felon of our said Lord the King And that at P. I will diligently seek for passage and I will tarry there but one Flood and Ebb if I can have passage and unless I can have it in such space I will go every day into the Sea up to my Knees assaying to pass over So God me help and his holy Judgment But in alluding to the old Oath in Case of abjuration for Felony which began with the Confession of the particular offence for which the Felon was abjured as Ego A. B. sum latro unius Equi vel homicida unius hominis or the like as the Case was Wilkinson is mistaken in the very offence for which the Popish Recusant is to abjure by force of this Statute for the offence is not his refusal to hear Divine Service for that is but only one of the precedent Qualifications of the person But the Offence it self is of another nature viz. his not repairing to the place the Statute appoints him or his removal from thence contrary to the Statute or his not presenting himself and delivering his true name as aforesaid Either of these if he be a Popish Recusant within the meaning of this Act is a crime for which he ought to abjure unless he prevents his Abjuration by a timely Submission Nor is the Popish Recusant bound to swear that he will not go out of the High way or return back or will tarry but one flood and ebb or go into the Sea up to his knees nor ought the Coroner or Justices of Peace to require any such Oath of him For this is a new offence made by a Statute Law which doth not require the strict form of Abjuration as in Case of Felony And although the Felon were tied to these circumstances yet the Recusant is not nor shall be a Felon for omitting them But 't is sufficient if he simply abjure as the Act directs and go from the appointed Port within the time limited and not return without Licence into any of the Kings Dominions He that thus abjures the Realm doth yet owe the King his Ligeance and remaineth within the Kings Protection He that abjures yet oweth the King his Ligeance Qui abjurat Regnum amittit regnum sed non Regem amittit Patriam sed non patrem patriae Co. 7. 9. Calvins Case And if any such Offender Stat. Sect. 7. The punishment for refusing to abjure not departing or returning without Licence which by the tenour and intent of this Act is to be abjured as is aforesaid shall refuse to make such Abjuration as is aforesaid or after such Abjuration made shall not go to such Haven and within such time as is before appointed and from thence depart out of this Realm according to this present Act or after such his departure shall return or come again into any her Majesties Realms or Dominions without her Majesties special Licence in that behalf first had and obtained That then in every such Case the person so offending shall be adjudged a Felon and shall suffer and lose as in Case of Felony without benefit of Clergy And within such time c. and from thence depart When and whence the Offender must depart The Offender is strictly tied to depart from the same Haven assigned him and within the time appointed him by the Justices of Peace or Coroner so that if he depart the Realm from any other Haven or Port or over stay his time and depart afterwards yet he is a Felon within this Act. Or return or come again into any her Majesties Realms or Dominions An Offender within this Act abjures in form aforesaid and departs this Realm and afterwards goes into Ireland without Licence Return and then returns into England with Licence such going into Ireland seems to be Felony by this Act. But quaere how the offence shall be tried How triable not in Ireland for this Statute binds not that Kingdom nor can be taken notice of there nor yet can it be tried in England for that the offence was done elsewhere So that this is casus omissus and cannot be punished for that no way of Trial is appointed Stat. Sect. 8. A Jesuit or Priest refusing to answer shall be imprisoned And be it further Enacted and Ordained by the Authority aforesaid That if any person which shall be suspected to be a Iesuit Seminary or Massing Priest being examined by any person having lawful Authority in that behalf to examine such
