Cum priuilegio Regiae Maiestatis ¶ An Acte of a Subsedye with two Fyftenes and Tenthes graunted by the Temporaltie THE certeyne knowledge and perfite sence that we your Maiesties moste humble subiectes haue and fele of the great felicitie which synce your reigne we hitherto haue enioyed and nowe presently do enioy farre beyonde all other nations our neyghbours yea muche augmented to our happynesse hauyng regarde to the former troublesome times amongst our selues doth vehemently presse and enforce vs first and principally with all our hartes and soules to acknowledge our most bounden dueties to Almightie God the king of kinges for his exceadyng singuler and diuine goodnes shewed to vs his creatures in preseruyng for our safetie after so many stormes your royall princely person our moste gracious Quene and in guydyng directing the same for our happynesse in so vnhappy an age thus happyly quietly and prouidently to gouerne vs his people committed to your charge And nexte for the same great benefites bestowed vpon vs by his mercyfull goodnesse by and through your Maiesties person Regiment to offer our selues most ready with all obeysaunce and loyaltie to serue and most humblye obey your Maiestie as Gods immediate minister in earth and supreme gouernour ouer vs to the vttermost of our power and ende of our lyues And furthermore consyderyng with our selues and beholdyng manyfestlye with our eyes the many notable beneficiall and princely actes done by your Maiestie with thassent of Gods fauour in these fewe yeres for the weale and suretie of this your Realme ¶ First in restoring vs to the fauour knowledge true seruice of almightie God by restauration into this Churche of Englande a sincere vniforme rule and order in Christian religion by delyuery of vs and our consciences from a foreyne vnnaturall tiranny and power notwithstandyng the many great threatnynges of worldly power to the contrary ¶ Next by reducyng this your Realme and all other your dominions from warre wherin you founde it to peace with your neighbours which two godly actes your Maiestie did accomplishe immediatly at your first entrie to this your crowne ¶ Thirdlye by the euident deliuery of this Realme frō the great manifest intended inuasions conspired prepared by strangers the auncient enemies of this Realme ioynyng therwith the princely and vpright preseruation of the libertie of the next Realme and nation of Scotlande from imminent captiuitie and desolation and so without any bluddy battayle most prouidētly though chargeably diuerting the force of the enemie intended against this Realme to their reproffe ¶ Fourthly by repayryng storyng enrychyng buyldyng reenforsyng this your Realme with the worthyest treasures of Armure Munition and all kynd of prouisions offensiue and defensiue for warre and of a princely nauie of Shippes for the seruice and defence of this your countrey and vs your people ¶ And next thereto as it were in a time almost desperate or doubtfull for

most prouident seasonable enterpryse nowe taken in hande this yere beyng therto necessaryly prouoked besides the foresight for safetie of your own Realme for the defence also of your Maiesties tender yong Brother and next neighbour the French Kyng beyng forcyblye gouerned agaynste his lawes and libertie by reason of the ambition of certeyn his vncontented subiectes being not disposed to liue as subiectes in quietnes as the experience of them towardes this Realme hath also proued And consequently in this enterprise your Maiestie not forgettyng the iust and seasonable recouery of an auncient porcion of this your crowne lately and vnfortunately spoyled and broken
