The Impeached and Imprisoned Citizens, Aldermen, and Members, Absolution from Guilt or Treason, by an Ancient Vote of the Commons House, when full, free, disengaged, and out of Wardship to the Army.  
Die Lunae 2 Martij. 1645.  
Resolved &c. by the House of Commons, 
 THat the Actions of the City of London, or of any other person whatsoever, for the defence of the Parliament, or the privilege thereof, or the preservation of the Members thereof, are according to their duty and to their late Protestation, and the Laws of the Kingdom; And if any person shall arrest or trouble any of them for so doing, he is declared to be a public enemy of the commonwealth.  
Resolved &c. That this Vote shall be made known to the Common counsel of the City of London.  
But the Actions of the now Impeached and Imprisoned Citizens, Aldermen and Members, for which they stand Accused and Committed are such; Yea, warranted by Ordinances, Votes, and Orders of both Houses then sitting,  
Ergo; Those Fugitives and Preingaged Members, and other persons who have accused, impeached, arrested and troubled them for so doing, are by this Vote, declared to be public enemies to the State, and the greater traitors of the two, as most honest disinteressed men repute them.
