by_o the_o king_n a_o proclamation_n of_o grace_n and_o pardon_n to_o all_o such_o as_o shall_v return_v to_o their_o obedience_n and_o submit_v to_o and_o seek_v his_o majesty_n mercy_n before_o

property_n of_o the_o subject_a and_o the_o privilege_n of_o parliament_n and_o be_v heretofore_o carry_v on_o in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n upon_o pretence_n also_o of_o the_o preservation_n of_o our_o honour_n and_o the_o right_n of_o our_o crown_n and_o the_o safety_n of_o our_o person_n and_o redeem_v it_o from_o the_o hand_n and_o power_n of_o evil_a counsellor_n and_o under_o these_o specious_a pretence_n very_o many_o of_o our_o subject_n have_v be_v mislead_v into_o it_o but_o that_o which_o be_v at_o first_o know_v and_o foresee_v by_o some_o may_v now_o be_v manifest_a to_o all_o even_o of_o the_o mean_a capacity_n that_o these_o be_v but_o pretence_n to_o colour_v the_o ambition_n malice_n and_o avarice_n of_o a_o few_o man_n since_o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o in_o the_o prosecution_n and_o for_o the_o uphold_n of_o the_o rebellion_n there_o have_v be_v more_o profanation_n and_o scorn_n to_o the_o protestant_a religion_n here_o establish_v more_o oppression_n of_o the_o subject_a by_o deprive_v they_o of_o their_o life_n liberty_n and_o property_n without_o and_o against_o law_n and_o more_o usurpation_n upon_o the_o right_n of_o our_o crown_n and_o violation_n of_o law_n and_o of_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o of_o privilege_n of_o parliament_n public_o avow_v then_o can_v be_v parallel_v by_o any_o former_a example_n in_o this_o kingdom_n and_o upon_o our_o several_a message_n and_o invitation_n for_o a_o treaty_n for_o peace_n nothing_o be_v propound_v to_o we_o and_o insist_v upon_o concerning_o the_o breach_n

and_o destroy_v without_o exception_n or_o regard_n of_o our_o person_n so_o that_o beside_o the_o trial_n we_o have_v already_o undergo_v we_o may_v easy_o discern_v what_o safety_n or_o defence_n we_o be_v to_o expect_v hereafter_o and_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o design_n tend_v to_o the_o destruction_n not_o only_o of_o our_o person_n and_o posterity_n but_o even_o of_o monarchy_n itself_o and_o that_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o true_a protestant_a religion_n establish_v of_o the_o law_n liberty_n and_o property_n of_o the_o subject_a of_o the_o just_a privilege_n of_o

to_o believe_v that_o very_o many_o of_o our_o subject_n who_o be_v heretofore_o seduce_v and_o mislead_v be_v by_o this_o and_o their_o own_o manifold_a suffering_n bring_v to_o a_o sight_n of_o their_o error_n and_o to_o a_o dislike_n and_o detestation_n of_o this_o execrable_a rebellion_n which_o threaten_v speedy_a ruin_n and_o destruction_n to_o the_o nation_n but_o be_v heretofore_o

therefore_o of_o our_o constant_a purpose_n to_o omit_v nothing_o which_o we_o shall_v conceive_v may_v give_v security_n to_o those_o our_o subject_n who_o shall_v not_o still_o wilful_o and_o
