SEVERAL VOTES OF The Lords and Commons assembled in Parliament, Concerning such as take up Arms against the Parliament of England, or assist in such a WAR.  
WHereas the Lords and Commons in Parliament assembled did upon the Twentieth of May, 1642. for the preventing of the late War, pass these three Votes: 

I. That it appears, That the King( seduced by wicked Counsel) intends to make War against the Parliament, who in all their Consultations and Actions, have proposed no other end unto themselves, but the care of the Kingdoms, and the performance of all Duty and Loyalty to His Person.  
II. That whensoever the King maketh War upon the Parliament, it is a Breach of the Trust reposed in Him by His People, contrary to His Oath, and tending to the Dissolution of this Government.  
III. That whosoever shall serve or assist Him in such Wars, are Traytors, by the Fundamental Laws of this Kingdom, and have been so adjudged by two Acts of Parliament, and ought to suffer as Traytors, 11 Richard. 2. 1 Hen. 4.    
And whereas there are now at this time divers persons in Arms, who endeavour to raise war against the Parliament; The Lords and Commons assembled in Parliament, for better informing of the Subjects of this Kingdom in their Duty, do now at this time Declare, That it doth appear, That divers who have assisted the King in the late war against the Parliament, as also divers others do endeavour to seduce the people, and do actually Levy War against the Parliament.  
That whosoever shall make war against the Parliament of England, or assist in such war, are Traytors, by the Fundamental Laws of this Kingdom, and have been so adjudged by two Acts of Parliament, and ought to suffer as Traytors, 11 Ric. 2. 1 Hen. 4.
