MDCXLVII. His MAJESTIES Declaration and Profession, disavowing any Preparations in Him to levy War against His two Houses of Parliament.

CHARLES R.

THere having been many Rumors spread and Informations given, which may have induced many to believe that We intend to make War against Our Parlia∣ment:

We Profess before God, and Declare to all the World, That We always have, and do abhor all such Designs; and desire all Our Nobility and Commoners who are here upon the place to declare, Whether they have not been Witnesses of Our frequent and earnest Declarations and Professions to this purpose; whether they see any colour of Pre∣parations or Counsels that might reasonably beget a belief of any such Design; and whe∣ther they be not fully perswaded that We have no such intention, but that all Our En∣deavours (according to Our many Professions) tend to the firm and constant settlement of the true Protestant Religion, the just Priviledges of Parliaments, the Liberty of the Subject, the Law, Peace, and Prosperity of this Kingdom.
