<HEAD>A PROCLAMATION.</HEAD>
<P>VVHEREAS it hath plea&s;ed Almighty God in his Great Mercy to this King|dom, to Vouch&s;afe us a Miraculous Deliverance from Popery and Arbitra|ry Power; and that our Pre&s;ervation is due next under God, to the Re&s;olution and Conduct of His Highne&s;s the Prince of ORANGE, whom God hath Cho&s;en to be the Glorious In&s;trument of &s;uch an Ine&s;timable Happine&s;s to us and our Po&s;te|rity: and being highly Sen&s;ible, and fully Per&s;waded of the Great and Eminent Vir|tues of Her Highne&s;s the Prince&s;s of ORANGE, who&s;e Zeal for the Prote&s;tant Religion will no doubt bring a Ble&s;&s;ing along with Her upon this Nation. And whereas the Lords and Commons now A&s;&s;embled at <HI>We&s;tmin&s;ter,</HI> have made a Declaration, and pre&s;ented the &s;ame to the &s;aid Prince and Prince&s;s of ORANGE, and therein de&s;ired Them to accept the Crown, who have accepted the &s;ame accor|dingly. We therefore the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and Commons, together with the Lord Mayor and Citizens of <HI>London,</HI> and others of the Commons of this Realm, do with a full Con&s;ent, Publi&s;h and Proclaim according to the &s;aid Declara|tion, WILLIAM and MARY, Prince and Prince&s;s of ORANGE, to be KING and QUEEN of <HI>England, France</HI> and <HI>Ireland,</HI> with all the Dominions thereunto belonging, Who are accordingly &s;o to be Owned, Deemed, Accepted, and Taken by all the People of the afore&s;aid Realms and Dominions, who are from henceforeward bound to acknowledge, and Pay unto them all Faith and true Alle|giance; Be&s;eeching God, by whom Kings Reign, to Ble&s;s King WILLIAM, and Queen MARY, with long and happy Years to Ring over us,</P>
<CLOSER>GOD Save King WILLIAM and Queen MARY.
