THe kings most excellent Majesty understanding by the lamentable complaints and humble suits of diverse and several merchants aswell his highness own subjects, as strangers, that their free trades and traffic of merchaundizes hath been now of late, and yet is much empeched and hindered, because thexchange and rechaunge of money (without which they cannot as they say without much difficulty, especially at this time, use their said traffic,) hath been of late time by our authority restrained and not permitted within any part of our dominions as they ware wont to be and yet be in all other parts beyond the sees: Albeit the restraint of the said exchanges and rechaunges was made according to our laws and grounded upon many good and just considerations mentioned in our proclamation, set forth and published in june last paste, yet at thumble suits of the said merchants and for the better continuance of thaccustomed free traffic in, to, and from, all foreign parts: His Majesty of his godly disposition and by th'advise of the lords and other of his highness privy counsel, is pleased that thexchanges and rechaunges of money shall be at liberty, and that the same may be from hencefurth used in all parts of this his majesties realm & other his highness dominions, in like, and as ample manner as the same was used before the publishing of the said proclamation. And that all merchants both his Majesties own subjects & strangers using & occupying the same shall from henceforth (during his majesties pleasure) be discharged from all pains forfaictures and penalties contained in any former statute, law or proclamation, any thing contained in them, or any of them to the contrary, notwithstanding.  
And his Majesty nevertheless, willeth to be understanden and known to all men, that his majesties pleasure & straight commandment is, that no man presume to carry out of this his majesties Realm or any other his highness dominions any Gold or Silver in money, Bullion, Plate, vessel, or otherwise then by his majesties laws is permitted upon, such pains as by his laws be provided against offenders in this behalf.  
Given at Westminster the xxiij day of March, in the uj year of our reign. 
 God save the King.
