Re&s;olved upon the Que&s;tion by both Hou&s;es of Parliament, <HI>Nemine Contradicente,</HI> that this en&s;uing Declaration &s;hall be printed.</OPENER>
<P>_WHereas both Hou&s;es of Parliament found it fit to &s;it in Parlia|ment upon the eighth day of Augu&s;t, being the Lords Day, for many urgent and unexpected occa&s;ions concerning the &s;afe|ty of the Kingdom, and being &s;o &s;traitned in time, by rea&s;on of His Maje&s;ties Re&s;olution to begin his Journey towards Scotland on Monday following, early in the morning, it was not po&s;sible for to &s;ettle and order the Affairs of the Kingdom, either for the Government thereof in the Kings ab&s;ence, or for the pre&s;ent &s;afety, as was requi&s;ite: Upon the&s;e pre&s;ent ne|ce&s;sities, though the Hou&s;es thought it nece&s;&s;ary to &s;it, yet the Lords and Commons now a&s;&s;embled in Parliament think it meet to declare, that they would not have done this, but upon inevitable nece&s;sity, the Peace and Safety both of Church and State being &s;o deeply concerned, which they do hereby declare, to the end that neither any other inferiour Court, or Councell, or any other per&s;on, may draw this into Exam|ple, or make u&s;e of it, for their encouragement in neglecting the due ob&s;ervation of the Lords Day.</P>
