SInce after a bloody War , followed by its worst Effects , Confusion , Violence , and Phanatick Fury , It hath pleased Almighty God by unexpected Methods , to bring us not only within hope , but even in view of Settlement : And that his Excellency the Lord General Monck , the Glorious and Immediate Instrument of Providence in this great work , through his Heroick Courage , Conduct and Moderation , hath brought Affairs to that pass , that there is scarce any thing left for other hands , but to lay hold of , and receive their Happiness . And unless we had bin mis-represented , as Bars to this Felicity , by false Apprehensions , we should not at this Instant have appeared in publick : So that the Enemies of this Nations Peace , traducing us as Persons Implacable and studious of Revenge , have at once laid an Obligation upon us to vindicate our selves by renouncing so unworthy a Suggestion , and an Opportunity of serving the publick by removing those Pretensions for Diffidence and Jealousie , which ( as things now stand ) are the only Hinderance of that perfect Union , which cannot fail to bring the Nation to a Happy Settlement . Upon which Ground , we have thought it fitting to declare , that we do disclaim , and with perfect detestation disown , all purpose of Revenge , or partial Remembrance of things past . Likewise , we desire , that in whatever any of us have dis-oblig'd either the Publick , or any Private Person , we may partake from them that Oblivion which we so readily dispense . Moreover , we promise and ingage to acquiesce in the Determinations of ensuing Parliaments , resolving in our several Stations , to compose our selves thereunto with Chearful Vigorous Obedience . Lastly , we are Resolved perfectly to forget all Names of Difference , excepting those , which the more Active Endeavours of Charity and Peace shall give unto us , who have this Strife alone to manage the Being out-done by none in Friendship , Love , and Condescention .
