<P>_WHereas a Petition hath been preferred unto Us, by divers Lords,
and Gentlemen of the <HI>Engli&s;h</HI> Pale, in the behalfe of them&s;elves
and the re&s;t of the Pale, and others of the old <HI>Engli&s;h</HI> of this
Kingdom; &s;hewing, That whereas a late con&s;piracy of Trea&s;on
is di&s;covered, of ill affected Per&s;ons of the old <HI>Iri&s;h,</HI> And that
thereupon, a Proclamation was publi&s;hed by Us, wherein among other
things, it is declar'd, That the &s;aid con&s;piracy was perpetrated by <HI>Iri&s;h</HI> Papi&s;ts
without di&s;tinction of any; And they doubting by tho&s;e generall words
of <HI>Iri&s;h</HI> Papi&s;ts, they might &s;eem to be involved, though they declare them|&s;elves
confident, that We did not intend to include them therein, in regard
they are none of the old <HI>Iri&s;h,</HI> nor of their faction, or confederacy; but they
are altogether a ver&s;e and oppo&s;ite to all their de&s;ignes, and all others of
like condition: We do therefore, to give them full &s;atisfaction, hereby
declare and publi&s;h, to all His Maje&s;ties good Subjects in this Kingdom,
That by the words, <HI>Iri&s;h</HI> Papi&s;ts, We intended only &s;uch of the old meer
<HI>Iri&s;h</HI> in the Province of <HI>Vl&s;ter,</HI> as have plotted, contrived, and been actors in
this Trea&s;on, and others who adhere to them; And that We did not any
way intend, or mean thereby any of the old <HI>Engli&s;h</HI> of the Pale, nor of any
other parts of this Kingdom, We being well a&s;&s;ured of the fidelities to the
Crown, And having experience of the good affection and &s;ervice of their
Ance&s;tors in former times of danger, and rebellion; And We further re|quire
all His Maje&s;ties loving Subjects, whether Prote&s;tants, or Papi&s;ts, to
forbear upbraiding matter of Religion, one again&s;t the other. And that up|on
pain of His Maje&s;ties Indignation.</P>
