His Majesties Declaration from Breda, April 14. 1660.
— We do declare a Liberty to tender Consciences; and that no Man shall be disquieted, or called in question for Differences of Opinion in Matters of Religion, which do not disturb the Peace of the Kingdom; And that We shall be ready to Con∣sent to such an Act of Parliament, as upon mature Deliberation shall be offered to Vs for the full granting that Indulgence.
House of Commons, Jan. 10. 1680.
Resolved, That it is the Opinion of this House, That the Pro∣secution of Protestant Dissenters upon the Penal Laws, is at this time grievous to the Subject, a weakning the Protestant Interest, an encouragement to Popery, and dangerous to the Peace of the Kingdom.
