The
Queenes
Maiesties
Proclamation
for
staying
of
all
vnlawfull
assemblies
in
and
about
the
Citie
of
London
,
and
for
Orders
to
punish
the
same
.
THe
Queenes
Maiestie
being
infourmed
of
sundry
great
disorders
committed
in
and
about
her
Citie
of
London
,
by
vnlawfull
great
assemblies
of
multitudes
of
a
popular
sort
of
base
condition
,
whereof
some
are
Prentises
and
seruants
to
Artificers
,
and
to
such
like
as
are
not
able
or
not
disposed
to
rule
their
seruants
as
they
ought
to
doe
,
And
some
attempting
to
rescue
out
of
the
handes
of
publique
Officers
such
as
haue
bene
lawfully
arrested
,
whereby
her
Maiesties
peace
hath
bene
of
late
notably
violated
and
broken
,
to
the
dishonour
of
her
Maiesties
gouernment
,
and
chiefly
for
lacke
of
due
correction
in
time
of
such
manifest
offenders
by
the
Officers
of
her
Citie
and
others
in
the
places
round
and
about
her
Citie
:
For
reformation
whereof
,
her
Maiestie
hath
had
conference
with
her
Counsell
,
of
the
most
ready
meanes
both
for
punishment
of
such
offences
already
committed
,
and
for
stay
of
the
like
.
And
to
that
purpose
doeth
most
straitly
charge
all
her
Officers
both
in
the
Citie
,
and
in
places
neere
to
the
Citie
,
in
the
Counties
of
Middlesex
,
Kent
,
Surrey
and
Essex
,
that
haue
authoritie
to
preserue
the
Peace
,
and
to
punish
the
offenders
of
the
Peace
,
That
they
do
more
diligently
,
to
the
best
of
their
powers
,
see
to
the
suppression
of
all
offenders
against
the
Peace
,
And
especially
of
all
vnlawfull
assemblies
,
vpon
paine
to
be
not
onely
remooued
from
their
Offices
,
but
to
be
also
punished
as
persons
maintayning
or
rather
comforting
such
offenders
.
And
because
these
late
vnlawful
assemblies
and
rowtes
are
compounded
of
sundry
sorts
of
base
people
,
some
knowen
Prentises
,
such
as
are
of
base
Manual
occupation
,
and
some
others
wandring
idle
persons
of
condition
of
Rogues
and
vagabonds
,
and
some
colouring
their
wandring
by
the
name
of
Souldiers
returned
from
the
warres
:
Therefore
her
Maiestie
hath
for
better
direction
to
her
Officers
of
Iustice
,
and
for
the
inquisition
and
knowledge
of
all
such
kinde
of
persons
,
so
either
vnlawflully
gathering
themselues
in
companies
or
wandring
about
like
Vagabonds
,
without
any
knowen
maner
of
honest
liuing
,
notified
her
pleasure
to
her
Counsell
,
to
prescribe
certaine
Orders
to
be
published
in
and
about
the
saide
Citie
,
which
she
will
haue
straitly
obserued
.
And
for
that
purpose
meaneth
to
haue
a
Prouost
Marshall
with
sufficient
authoritie
to
apprehend
all
such
as
shall
not
be
readily
reformed
&
corrected
by
the
ordinary
Officers
of
Iustice
,
and
them
without
delay
to
execute
vpon
the
gallowes
,
by
order
of
Martiall
lawe
.
And
these
her
Maiesties
commandements
,
She
willeth
to
be
duely
obserued
,
vpon
paine
of
her
indignation
.
Giuen
at
her
Maiesties
Mannour
of
Greenewich
the
fourth
day
of
Iuly
1595.
in
the
seuen
and
thirtieth
yeere
of
her
Highnesse
raigne
.
God
saue
