WHereas out of our tender care to Our City of London and in hope to reduce them to their due obedience to Vs We by Our Proclamation bearing date at Our Court at Oxford the 8. day of December now last past did Declare Our Royall pleasure to be That there should be no stop or interruption to any of our loving Subjects as they should travell to our City of London with any Cloathes Wares or Merchandize but that they should freely and peaceably passe without any let trouble or molestation whatsoever Which grace and favour unto them hath in these many Months wrought this contrary effect That above all other parts of this our kingdom a prevalent faction of that City which over-rules the whole hath so far joyned with and in that horrid rebellion that it hath denounced war against the whole kingdom by violent opposing all the possible wayes to peace and so that City formerly famous for their loyalty and love to their Soveraigns is now become the head of that traiterous faction and the receptacle of all such as are disaffected to our Government and the Laws of the Kingdom and not only willingly consents and submits to all burthens and impositions layed upon them for the support and maintenance of the rebellious Armies raised against Vs but maliciously prosecutes and pursues all such who are but suspected to wish well to Our service And when We pittying the desperate and deplorable condition of Our People were graciously pleased to desire a Treaty for an Accommodation and propounded that whilest that Treaty should continue there might be a cessation of Arms and a free Commerce for all Our loving Subjects in all the parts of Our Kingdom that so the benefits of Trade and Commerce being enjoyed Our good People might be the more in love with Peace yet this motion thus proceeding from Vs was neverthelesse by speciall incitation from the city of London which by the Grace of Our said Proclamation enjoyed the advantage of the whole Trade of the Kingdom scornfully neglected by the Enemies of Peace and all intercourse interdicted to Our city of Oxford the present place of Residence for Our Court and Army and that restraint is continued upon all those who are thought to be serviceable or but well-affected to Vs We therefore being thereunto enforced out of this necessity and finding that the Trade and Commerce of the Kingdom which ought to be maintained for the publique benefit of all our good people is by this means inverted onely for
the advantage of those Places and Persons which cherish this Rebellion the Goods and Merchandize of such who are thought well-affected to Vs ●●●ng seised when they are brought to Londo● 〈…〉 thought it fit and reasonable to revoke 〈…〉 that Our former Act of Grace and 〈…〉 this Our Proclamation We do publish 〈…〉 Declare to all Our Subiects That whosoever of them either in their Persons shall from henceforth travell unto our city of London without License from our Self or one of our Principall Secretaries of States the Generalls or Lieutena●●-Generalls of our Armies or the Governours of any our Towns Castles or Forts or with their Goods cattle Victuall or Merchandize of any sort whatsoeover shall from henceforth travell unto or for our said city of London or suburbs thereof without our expresse License for the same under our Signe Manuall shall adventure the same at their own perills We being resolved by all possible means to seize the same And that all those who from any parts of this our Kingdom shall furnish or serve our said city of London or suburbs thereof either by sea or land with any Victualls or other Provisions or with any Merchandize to maintain them or their Trade as long as they shall thus obstinately stand out in Rebellion against Vs VVe shall esteem as persons disaffected to Vs and to our Government and as Ayders and Assisters to the Rebells and shall accordingly deal with them and proceed against them And that this restraint shall continue upon them untill such time as the Inhabitants of the said city finding their Errors shall return to their due Obedience unto Vs straitly commanding all the officers of our Armies and all other our officers Ministers and loving subjects in all places through which any persons Goods cattle Victuall or Merchandize shall passe or be conveyed towards the said city of London to apprehend the persons and seize and detain the Goods untill upon speedy notice to Vs they shall receive our farther directions VVe hereby assuring them they shall receive part of such Goods so seized in satisfaction and for their reward But for the continuing of the generall Trade and commerce of the Kingdom and the Manufactures thereof which we desire to uphold and advance VVe leave all Our subjects to Trade freely in and unto all other parts and in and unto all other Ports or Harvens of this our Kingdom not being in actuall Rebellion against Vs and from those ports to Trade with their Merchandize freely into any other parts wheresoever beyond the seas being in amity with Vs without any restraint whatsoever Given under Our Signe Manuall at Our Court at Oxford this Seventeenth day of Iuly in the Nineteenth yeer of Our Reigne God save the King AFter the Proclamation was read Mr. Pym spake as followeth My Lord and these worthy Gentlemen you have heard this Proclamation read there is no man but in the very hearing of it must needs apprehend that it is very contrary not onely to the wealth and profit of the City but to the Peace and Safety of it This in generall I doubt not doth appear to every one of you I am commanded to make you some particular Observations The first that I shall present to you is this That in this Proclamation there are terms of great aspersion of great Infamy put upon some Actions of the City which actions in themselves are not only warrantable and very laudable but such as will be evidences of your vertue of your piety of your honour to the present age and Monuments of all to the future age you are here in respect of that obedience which you have shown to the two Houses of Parliament in respect of that fidelity which you have shown to to the State in defending the Parliament from violence of the War that is raised up against them you are here called Traitours nay to be the head of a great Rebellion to be the Fomentors of it This action of yours so full of Honour of Justice and of Duty is now represented here in these odious terms that is the first Another action of yours which is represented here in very odious termes is this That you have been ready by the valour and by the dilligence of the Citizens to suppresse Mutinies and Rebellions and Insurrections and Violence in your Neighbour and adjacent Counties here and this is called a making War against the whole Kingdome being an action very full of honor in you and very full of good care of the publique peace yet it is here odiously represented The third is this That you have given safety and protection here by the good Government of the City to many that could find no safety in the Countrey Ministers and others and for this worke of Charity of Honour of publick good you are represented here to be a Den a Receptacle of Rebells and Traitours These particulars are upon the first head that your actions that are vertuous and honourable and worthy both of present thankes and of future remembrance to the honour of the City they are hore represented after an odious manner The second Observation that I shall make to you is this That some actions of the Kings that are here represented to you with a face of Favour and of Grace were yet in themselves such as would have been either fruitlesse to you or would have been full of danger both to you and to the whole Kingdom The first is this That Proclamation that there should be a free Trade from all parts of the kingdome to this City it hath a face of much Grace but it was in a great manner fruitlesse for notwithstanding this Proclamation divers Carriers were robbed not onely of private mens goods but of the good of the Kingdome even those Provisions that were sent for Ireland they were taken away that is the first thing An other thing that is represented unto you as a matter of great Grace is That the King was pleased to desire a Treatie for an Accommodaton A Treaty indeed was desired but there have no evidenses been given that wee can beleive that an Accommodation was indeed desired for though Committees weer sent though such propositoins were offered as were full of Honour and securitie to the King and yet did afford the Subject also resonable securitie and safety in enjoying Religion and liberties which they ought to desire they were refused the Treaty was desired which would have been a snare to you which would have withdrawne the hearts of the People from you your abilities from the Parliament of raising such strength as was neessary The Treaty was desired indeed but if the Accommodation it selfe had been desired wee might have expected a betrer Answer to the Propositions that were made A third thing is this it was represented that a Cessation was propounded that there might have beene a free Trade to Oxford udder which all provisions of Munition Armes and money might be sent thither to strengthen
