The Form of the Oath of Abjuration which was taken by all the Members before they were admitted of the Council of State.
The Oath was in these following words, viz.
I Do hereby swear, That I do renounce the pretended Title of Charles Stuart, and the whole Line of the late king James, and of every other person, as a Single Person, pretending, or which shall pretend to the Crown or Government of these Nations of England, Scotland, or Ireland, or any of them, and the Dominions and Territories belonging to them, or any of them; And that I will by the Grace and Assistance of Almighty God, be True, Faithful, and Constant to the Parliament and Common-wealth, and will oppose the bringing in, or setting up any Single Person, or House of Lords, and every of them in This Common-wealth.
To the Ingenious and Impartial Reader.
You are desired seriously to consider whether any person above-named ought to have any share in the Government of either Church or State that took that Horrid Oath of Abjuration.
