HONI SOIT QVI MAL Y PENSE  
DIEV ET MON DROIT   By the Lords justices and Council. 
Maurice Eustace Canc. Orrery. Mountrath.  
WHereas We are given to understand by the Informations of many persons well deserving credit, that of late times there have been sundry unlawful assemblies in many parts of this Kingdom held by Papists, by Presbyterians, by Independents, by Anabaptists, by Quakers, and other Fanatical persons meeting in great numbers, divers hundreds and sometimes thousands at an assembly convened and congregated, some by a foreign pretended jurisdiction, others by a pretended Domestic Authority from a Presbytery, others under pretence of Congregational Churches, and all of them contrary to and in contempt of his Majesty's Royal Authority, and the established Laws of the Land, and if not seasonably prevented threatening the disturbance of the good Government, Peace and Tranquillity of the Kingdom; In which Assemblies some have taken upon them on their own heads to appoint public Fasts, and days of Humiliation or Thanksgiving for his Majesty's Subjects, and to give holy Orders, and induct into Ecclesiastical benefices, and to deprive Ministers (who have good titles by the Laws of this Realm) at their pleasures by their Arbitrary Orders by the force of such of their parishioners as join with them and go along with them, At which meetings they are not afraid to speak evil of Dignities, and to cast dirt in the face of the lawful Magistrates, yea to usurp the essential rights of Sovereignty itself, and to inveigh against the known Laws of this Realm; We therefore the Lords justices and Council, considering and desiring timely to prevent the many sad inconveniences and mischiefs which must of necessity flow from these tumultuous courses if not prevented, and what apparent dangers they threaten to the Kingdom in general, Have thought fit to declare to all his Majesty's loving Subjects, that all such Assemblies, whether it be of Papists, of Presbyterians, of Independents, of Anabaptists, of Quakers, or of any other Fanatical persons, are in themselves altogether unlawful, and most dangerous to the common good of the Kingdom; And therefore We do strictly inhibit and forbid all his Majesty's Subjects either Ecclesiastical or Lay, to call or convocate any such Assemblies under the name of days of Humiliation, or days of Thanksgiving or consistorial days, or under any other pretence whatsoever, or to be present at them, or to execute their sentences, or to be present or any way to assist at the execution of them, as they will answer the contrary at their perils.  
And We do hereby further declare, that as We can readily pass by such disorderly and tumultuous meetings for the time passed upon hope of amendment for the future, so if any person or persons whatsoever, shall for the future presume to convocate or appoint any such Assemblies, or meet at them being convocated by any others, or shall disperse or spread abroad any of their Orders, Sentences, or Acts, or execute or assist at the execution of any of their said Orders or Sentences, or Acts, or any part of them hereafter, We shall call him to a strict account aswel for the time passed as for the future.  
And as We assure Ourselves that the most Reverend Arch-Bishops, and the right Reverend Bishops, will use all due care and industry to gain such as have been seduced into those Turbulent and Seditious courses to obedience and conformity to the just Laws of this Realm, so We do hereby require and charge them, and all Governors, justices of Peace, Sheriffs, and all other his Majesty's loving Subjects and Officers whatsoever, that they suffer not any such unlawful meetings under the pretence of Religion to be held within their several Provinces, Dioceses, Shires, or districts for the future, but seize upon all such persons so assembled, and bind them over with sufficient sureties to answer for such unlawful meetings, and all other abuses and disorders aforesaid either before the judges of Assize, or the justices of the Peace at their Sessions according to the quality or degree of their offences, there to be proceeded with according to Law, as they tender his Majesty's service, and the prosperity and welfare of this Kingdom.  
And We require all Commanders Officers, and Soldiers of his Majesty's Army, and all other his Majesty's Subjects, as occasion may be offered, or their assistance required, to be aiding and assisting in the due execution of these our commands, whereof they may not fail; And We require all Mayors, Sheriffs, and all other Officers of Cities, Counties, and Corporate Towns to cause this Proclamation to be forthwith Published and Proclaimed, and publicly fixed up in all public places within their respective limits.
