ACT against separation and disobedience to Ecclesiastical Authority FOrasmuch as the King's Majesty considering the prejudices which did ensue to the Church and Protestant Religion to the Prerogative of the Crown to the Authority of Parliament to the Liberties of the Subject and to the publick Laws and Peace of the Kingdom by the invasions made upon Episcopal Government during the late troubles And finding that Government to be the Church-government most agreeable to the Word of GOD most convenient and effectual for preservation of Truth Order and Unity and most suteable to Monarchy and to the Peace and Quiet of the State Hath therefore with advice and consent of His Estates of Parliament by several Acts past in the second Session of this Parliament restored the Church to it 's ancient and right Government by Archbishops and Bishops and hath redintigrated the estate of Bishops to the exercise of their Episcopal Function and to all the Priviledges Dignities Jurisdictions and Possessions due and formerly belonging thereunto And in further order to the settlement of the Church and bringing the Ministers to a due acknowledgment of and complyance with the Government thereof thus established by Law His Majesty with advice foresaid hath also Statute and Ordained That all these Ministers who entered to the Cure of any Paroch without Right or Presentations from the lawfull Patrons in and since the year one thousand six hundred and fourty nine and should not betwixt and the twentieth of September last obtain Presentations from their several Patrons and Collation from the Bishop of the Diocess where they lived should have no right to the uplifting the Rents of any Benefice or Stipend for the year one thousand six hundred and sixty two but that their Places Benefices and Kirks should be ipso jure vacand And that what ever Ministers should without a lawfull excuse to be admitted by their Ordinary absent themselves from the diocesian Assembly or who should not concur in all the Acts of the Church-discipline as they should be thereunto required by the Archbishop or Bishop of the Diocess should be for the first fault suspended from their Office and Benefice till the next diocesian Meeting and if they amend not should be deprived and the Church and Benefice to be provided as in other cases of vacancies And the King's Majesty having resolved to conserve and maintain the Church in the present State and Government thereof by Archbishops and Bishops and others bearing office therein and not to endure nor give way or connivance to any variation therein in the least Doth therefore with advice and consent of His Estates conveened in this third Session of His Parliament Ratifie and Approve the aforementioned Acts and all other Acts and Laws made in the two former Sessions of Parliament in order to the settling of Episcopal Dignity Jurisdiction and Authority within this Kingdom and Ordains them to stand in full force as publick Laws of the Kingdom and to be put to further execution in all points conform to the tenor thereof And in pursuance of His Majesties Royal resolution herein His Majesty with advice aforesaid doth recommend to the Lords of His Majesties Privy Council to take speedy and effectual course that these Acts receive ready and due obedience from all His Majesties Subjects And for that end that they call before them all such Ministers who having entered in or since the year one thousand six hundred and fourty nine and have not as yet obtained Presentations and Collations as aforesaid yet dared to preach in contempt of the Law and to punish them as seditious persons and contemners of the Royal Authority As also that they be carefull that such Ministers who keep not the diocesian Meetings and concur not with the Bishops in the Acts of Church-discipline being for the same suspended or deprived as said is be accordingly after deprivation removed from their Benefices Glebs and Manses and if any of them shall notwithstanding offer to retain the possession of their Benefices or Manses that they take present course to see them dispossest and if they shall thereafter presume to exercise their Ministry that they be punished as seditious persons and such as contemn the Authority of Church and State And as His Majesty doth expect from all His good and dutifull Subjects a due acknowledgment of and hearty complyance with His Majesties Government Ecclesiasticall and Civil as it is now established by Law within this Kingdom and that in order thereunto they will give their chearful concurrence countenance and assistance to such Ministers as by publick Authority are or shall be admitted in their several Paroches and attend all the ordinary Meetings for divine Worship in the same So His Majesty doth Declare That He will and doth account a with-drawing from and not keeping and joyning in these Meetings to be seditious and of dangerous example and consequence And therefore and for preventing the same for the future His Majesty with advice and consent of His Estates in Parliament doth hereby Statute Ordain and Declare That all and every such person or persons who shall hereafter ordinarily and willfully withdraw and absent themselves from the ordinary Meetings of divine Worship in their own Paroch Church on the Lords-day whether upon account of Popery or other disaffection to the present

they be required otherwayes to pay to their said Masters ten shillings Scots for ilk dayes absence till they be restored And His Majesty considering that the chief cause whereby the foresaids Acts

Persons in their service and that now by His Majesties Princely care common Works for Manufacturies of divers sorts are setting up in this Kingdom Therefore His Majesty with advice and consent of His Estates in Parliament Ratifies and Approves the foresaids Acts of Parliament with this addition That it shall be leisum to all Persons or Societies who have or shall set up any Manufacturies within

rate aforesaid the one half thereof to be payed by the Heretors either conform to the old extent of their Lands within the Paroch or conform to the valuation by which they last payed assessment or otherwayes as the major part of the Heretors so meeting shall agree Life-renters and Wod-setters alwayes being lyable during their Rights as Heretors and the other half thereof to be laid upon the Tennents and Possessors according to their means and substance And in case the saids Heretors being required by any Person or Society imploying the Poor as said is shall failzie to make up and deliver a stent Roll in manner foresaid with power to the Persons Society or others intrusted by them to charge the Heretors of each Paroch for the sum of two shillings Scots per diem for each one of their

against the recepters of them being so imployed for ten shillings Scots money per diem upon fifteen dayes only Providing alwayes that after examination of the case the Lords of the Privy Council shall find cause for directing such Letters And Ordains all Sheriffs Stewarts Bailies of Regality Principality Magistrates of Burroughs or Justices of Peace and their Constables to be assisting in the apprehending of the saids Vagabonds or in the bringing of them back to their service after they shall be employed And strictly Prohibits and Discharges all persons whatsoever to oppose or hinder the taking or bringing back of them in manner foresaid respective under the pain of deforcement Likeas it is hereby Declared That the Poor so imployed shall continue in the service of the employers and
