HIS MAjESTIES DECLARATION CONCERNING LEAVIES Charles R. OUr expresse Pleasure is That this Our Declaration be Published in all Churches and Chappell 's within the Kingdom of England and Dominion of Wales by the Parsons Vicars or Curates of the same LONDON Printed by ROBERT BARKER Printer to the Kings most Excellent Majestie And by the Assignes of JOHN BILL MDCXLII C R HONI SOIT QVI MAL Y PENSE DIEV ET MON DROIT ❧ His MAjESTIES Answer to a Printed Paper intituled A new Declaration of the Lords and Commons in Parliament of the 21. of June 1642. in Answer to his Majesties Letter dated the 14 of June and sent to the Lord Major Aldermen and Sheriffes of the City of LONDON IT seems by a new Declaration of the 21 of Iune in answer to Our Letter of the 14 of the same month to the Lord Major of London that the Lords and Commons in Parliament have much more leasure then they pretend or that those Persons whom We have before described in Our former Answers and Declarations and of whom onely We would be understood to speak think such Declarations and Votes to be such unresistable Engines of Batterie against Vs and the Law that no strength can oppose them And therefore though they will take notice from whence that Letter came they will vouchsafe it no other mention but of a Paper as if found by chance inscribed To Our trustie and welbeloved c. And it is wonder that since they have usurped the Supream Power to themselves they have not taken upon them the Supream Style too and directed this very new Declaration To their trustie and welbeloved their Subjects of the Citie of London For it is too great and palpable a scorn to perswade them to take up Arms against Our Person under colour of being loving Subjects to Our Office and to Destroy Vs that they may Preserve the King They are offended that We should beleeve That their end of perswading Our Subjects to raise Horse and to furnish Money upon pretence of a Guard for the Parliament is in truth to imploy those Horse Men and Money against Vs Let the reasons of Our belief be never so strong and their Actions never so evident to compell all other men to beleeve so too The Lords and Commons do declare think what you will and see what you can That the Designe of those Propositions for raising Men Horse and Money is to maintain the Protestant Religion The Kings Authority and Person in His Royall Dignity The free course of Justice The Laws of the Land The Peace of the Kingdom and Priviledges of Parliament against any Force which shall oppose them And this all men are bound to beleeve though they see the Protestant Religion and the Professors thereof miserably reproached and in danger of being destroyed by a vicious and Malignant Party of Brownists Anabaptists and other Sectaries the principal ring-leaders of whom have too great a power even with some Members in both Our Houses of Parliament Our Authority despised and as much as in them lies taken from Vs and reviled in Pulpits and Presses by persons immediately in their Protection and of their recommendation and Our Person driven away by Tumults and rude multitudes against whom We can have no Iustice The course of Iustice interrupted and stopped by Orders and Injunctions never heard of till this Parliament The Laws of the Land trampled under foot and frustrated and new Laws attempted to be made and imposed upon Our Subjects without and against Our consent The Peace of the Kingdom shaken and frighted away by discountenancing the Laws absolving as much as in them lies the people from the Rules of Government or Obedience and even declaring a War against Vs and the Laws of the Land And lasily The Priviledges of Parliament so far extended as if to the bare sound of Priviledge of Parliament The Liberty and Property of the Subject the dignity and certainty of the Law were in such subjection that they may first make what Orders they please and in what cases they please And whosoever disputes those Orders and submits not to those Votes breaks their Priviledges and whosoever breaks their Priviledges is an Enemie to the Common-wealth and worthy of such other Attributes either of favouring the Rebellion in Ireland or advancing the War here as are most likely to render that person suspected or odious to the People If in truth this be evidently and demonstrably the case such Declarations will no more gain credit with or longer mis-lead Our Subjects then if they should tell them That We are personally with them in London when all men see Vs here at York As they have Declared the best Argument or Evidence you are to look for that all that they do is lawfull because they do it so they proceed by the same power to assure those who are apt to be deceived by them that the Force already attending Vs they would certainly do otherwise if they did really beleeve such Force to be about Vs and the Preparation We are making do evidently appear to be intended for some great and extraordinary Designe and do justifie their former Votes of Our intention of Leavying Warre against Our Parliament And they have at last given some Reason for that Vote and Declaration They finde by Our severall Declarations that We intend force against those who shall submit to the Ordinance of the Militia and that We intend to make an attempt upon Hull In both which Cases they are pleased to declare That whatsoever violence shall be used either against those who exercise this Militia or against Hull they cannot but take it as done against the Parliament We are beholding to them that they have explained to all Our good Subjects the meaning of their Charge against Vs That by Our intention of making War against Our Parliament no more is pretended to be meant but Our Resolution not to submit to the high injustice and indignity of the Ordinance the businesse of Hull We have never concealed Our intentions in either of those particulars We wish they would deal as cleerly with Vs but have alwayes and do now declare That that pretended Ordinance is against the Law of the Land against the Liberty and Property of the Subject destructive to Soveraignty and therefore not consistent with the very Constitution and Essence of the Kingdom and to the Right and Priviledge of Parliament That We are bound by Our Oath and all Our Subjects are bound by theirs of Alleagiance and Supreamacie and their own Protestation lately taken to assist Vs to oppose that Ordinance which is put already in execution against Vs not onely by Training and Arming Our Subjects but by forceably removing the Magazines from the places trusted by the Counties to their Own houses and guarding it there with Armed men whither it will be next removed and how used by such persons We know not That the keeping Vs out of Hull by Sir John
