The

,
or
diuided
Tenements
so
inhabited
,
or
to
be
inhabited
with
poore
people
as

,
should
be
enioyned
,
and
vpon
that

and
Decree
take
sufficient

And
for
that
the
new
buildings
and
diuisions
of
sundry
houses
within
the
Citie
of
London
and
three
miles
compasse
thereof
,
contrary
to
the
tenour
of
the
said
Proclamation
,
had
beene
,
and
was
occasion
of
great
charges
vnto
the
Parishes
of
the
said
Citie
and
Precinct
aforesaid
,
whereby
the
said
Parishes
were
still
ouermuch
burdened
with
poore
and
impotent
perfons
;
It
was
therefore
ordered
and
decreed
,
that
all
such
Landlords
,
or
Owners
of
such
buildings
or
diuisions
,
wheresoeuer
they
should
dwell
,
should
contribute
and
giue
such
like
ratable
and
reasonable
allowance
with
the
said
Parishioners
,
where
such
buildings
and
diuisions
were
,
towards
the
finding
and
maintaining
of
the
poore
of
the
Parish
,
in
which
such
buildings
were
,
or
should
bee
erected
or
diuided
,
contrary
to
the
said
Proclamation
,
as
should
bee
apportioned
and
allotted
him
of
them
to
pay
,
if
hee
or
they
were
dwelling
in
the
said
parish
.
And
it
was
further
ordered
and
decreed
,
that
after
the
death
or
departure
of
such
poore
people
,
as
did
,
or
should
inhabit
the
same
houses
or
diuided
Tenements
aforesaid
,
the
houses
thereby
being
become
voide
;
Then
the
Lord
Maior
,
and
Iustices
of
Peace
neere
unto
the
Citie
adioyning
,
thereby
were
commanded
to
reform
the
said
diuided
Tenements
,
and
to
prostrate
,
pull
downe
,
and
deface
the
said
new
buildings
in
such
sort
as
the
same
should
be
no
more
fit
for
habitation
,
and
the
timber
and
wood
thereof
to
be
conuerted
and
disposed
in
such
manner
,
as
by
the
said
Proclamation
is
required
,
as
also
to
take
order
in
all
other
the
premises
,
That
the
said
Decree
should
bee
duely
obserued
and
kept
,
and
if
any
should
be
obstinate
,
then
to
binde
such
Landlords
as
should
obstinately
and
wilfully
disobey
the
said
Decree
,
to
appeare
in
this
Honourable
Court
,
to
answer
their
contempt
therein
.
And
whereas
the
nine
and
twentieth
of
Nouember
,
in
the
seuenth
yeare
of
the
Reigne
of
King
IAMES
of
blessed
memorie
,
this
honourable
Court
did
decree
and
order
;
That
the
said
Decree
taken
the
twentieth
day
of
October
in
the
said
fourtieth
yeare
of
the
said
late
Queene
,
should
be
presently
,
and
from
time
to
time
thereafter
more
seuerely
looked
into
,
and
put
inexecution
;
And
his
Maiesties
learned
Counsel
,
and
also
the
Lord
Maior
and
Aldermen
of
London
,
together
with
all
Iustices
of
Peace
,
and
other
his
Maiesties
Officers
whatsoeuer
,
which
the
same
may
any
way
concerne
,
were
straitly
charged
and
required
,
that
they
,
and
euery
of
them
,
should
from
time
to
time
thereafter
diligently
and
strictly
cause
,
and
see
the
said
Decree
to
be
in
all
points
duely
obserued
and
put
in
execution
,
and
termely
to
make
certificate
to
this
honourable
Court
of
their
proceedings
therein
,
and
of
such
persons
as
they
should
finde
to
offend
in
that
behalfe
,
whereupon
on
this
Court
did
purpose
to
proceed
against
them
for
their
contempts
with
very
seuere
punishment
.
Since
which
time
sundry
other
Proclamations
,
as
well
in
the
time
of
the
said
late
King
IAMES
,
as
of
His
Maiestie
that
now
is
,
haue
been
published
and
set
out
against
the
said
offences
,
and
many
exemplarie
sentences
in
this
honourable
Court
haue
been
pronounced
against
offenders
in
that
behalfe
,
and
many
houses
and
buildings
erected
against
the
said
Proclamation
haue
beene
demolished
and
pulled
down
.
And
yet
neuerthelesse
,
such
hath
been
the
disobedience
and
contempt
of
great
multitudes
,
aiming
onely
at
their
own
gain
,
whatsoeuer
perill
or
inconuenience
might
happen
to
the
Publique
,
that
the
new
buildings
and
diuiding
of
Tenements
haue
dayly
more
and
more
increased
,
and
such
numbers
of
poore
dissolute
and
lewd
persons
are
therin
harboured
,
that
in
many
parishes
within
the
limits
and
precincts
aforesaid
,
there
are
farre
more
housholds
and
families
that
liue
by
begging
,
and
other
vnlawfull
wayes
,
and
by
reliefe
and
almes
of
the
parish
,
then
are
in
the
same
parish
to
liue
by
their
own
meanes
and
vocation
;
So
as
the
burthen
is
growen
so
heauy
to
many
of
the
said
parishes
,
that
the
wealthy
are
not
able
to
relieue
the
poore
in
time
of
health
,
much
lesse
in
time
of
sicknesse
or
Infection
,
as
hath
appeared
in
the
late
visitation
of
the
plague
,
wherein
such
multitudes
of
those
poore
&
miserable
housholds
haue
beene
infected
,
and
their
necessities
growne
to
that
extremity
,
that
the
officers
of
the
parish
haue
not
been
able
to
keepe
them
within
their
houses
,
but
the
sicke
and
infected
haue
gone
among
the
whole
,
and
great
swarmes
of
indigent
and
poore
people
,
and
many
of
them
infected
with
the
sicknesse
,
haue
,
maugre
all
authoritie
and
command
of
the
officers
,
flocked
in
troupes
in
the
principall
streets
of
the
citie
and
suburbs
of
London
,
whereby
the
Infection
of
the
plague
hath
been
much
the
more
dispersed
,
not
only
in
the
said
citie
and
places
adiacent
;
but
into
many
other
parts
of
the
kingdome
:
Besides
,
it
is
apparantly
found
out
,
that
those
multitudes
of
new
buildings
and
diuided
Tenements
,
doe
draw
into
the
said
citie
,
and
parts
adioyning
,
from
all
parts
of
the
kingdome
,
great
numbers
(
idle
,
loose
and
dissolute
persons
)
who
are
harboured
in
those
obscure
and
meane
houses
,
and
hauing
no
lawfull
trade
or
vocation
,
doe
begge
,
and
also
commit
Pilferies
,
Cosenages
,
and
infinite
disorders
to
enable
them
to
pay
their
Landlords
rents
:
And
many
of
the
Owners
and
Landlords
or
such
Tenements
,
of
purpose
for
raising
of
excessiue
rents
to
themselues
out
of
their
houses
and
Tenements
,
doe
let
,
and
parcell
them
out
to
such
idle
,
loose
,
and
ill
disposed
persons
,
though
they
know
them
to
bee
of
that
condition
,
in
regard
they
will
give
greater
rents
then
a
poore
labouring
man
is
able
to
doe
and
vse
all
shifts
and
vnlawfull
meanes
to
pay
it
.
All
which
enormities
and
many
more
,
hauing
,
vpon
Suruey
lately
taken
,
more
euidently
appeared
then
in
former
time
.
This
Court
for
reformation
thereof
,
doth
now
againe
order
and
decree
,
that
the
said
seuerall
Decrees
made
in
the
fortieth
yeere
of
the
said
late
Queene
ELIZABETH
,
and
the
seauenth
yeare
of
the
said
late
King
IAMES
,
with
such
additions
and
alterations
as
hereafter
ensue
,
be
seuerely
and
strictly
executed
.
And
forasmuch
as
it
appeareth
not
onely
by
the
said
Decrees
,
but
by
the
generall
resolution
of
all
the
Reuerend
Iudges
of
the
Realme
(
whom
His
Maiestie
out
of
His
great
care
of
the
Publique
,
hath
lately
commanded
to
assemble
)
that
the
erecting
of
new
buildings
within
the
limits
before
mentioned
,
and
the
diuiding
of
greater
houses
into
pety
tenements
and
habitations
,
and
pestering
and
filling
the
same
with
Inmates
,
or
with
Inhabitants
of
such
euill
condition
as
aforesaid
,
is
a
most
vnsufferable
annoyance
against
the
Publique
,
and
consequently
is
against
the
Common
law
of
the
Realme
;
And
that
not
only
the
said
euill
conditioned
Inhabitants
,
but
such
by
whom
,
or
by
whose
meanes
they
are
placed
there
,
or
who
receiue
the
rents
of
such
Inhabitants
,
are
guiltie
of
a
Common
Nusance
;
and
also
that
such
Landlords
or
Owners
of
such
houses
or
tenements
,
which
haue
or
do
receiue
the
rents
of
such
poore
Inhabitants
,
may
by
law
be
taxed
towards
the
reliefe
of
the
poore
of
the
said
Parish
,
though
they
dwell
out
of
the
parish
.
This
Court
holdeth
it
meet
,
that
since
the
offendors
haue
not
taken
warning
by
two
such
solemne
Decrees
made
in
this
Court
,
they
should
now
be
proceeded
against
with
more
rigor
and
seuerity
,
and
not
bee
suffered
any
longer
to
make
vnreasonable
gain
and
profit
to
themselues
by
so
great
a
wrong
and
generall
grieuance
.
And
therefore
this
Court
doth
order
and
decree
,
aswell
in
execution
of
the
said
former
Decrees
,
and
pursuance
of
the
said
resolution
of
the
Iudges
,

any

formerly
built
within
the

aforesaid

And
