WHereas aduertisement is giuen vnto vs , that there is at this time dispersed within our City of London , and the Suburbs thereof , a great multitude of base and loose people , such as neither haue any certeine place of abode , nor any good or lawfull cause of businesse to attend hereabouts , but lie priuily corners and bad houses , listning after newes and stirres , and spreading rumours and tales , being of like lihood ready to lay holde of any occasion to enter into any tumult or disorder , thereby to seeke rapine and pillage : And like wise that further numbers of such forst of vagabond people doe continually stocke and gather to our City , and the places confining about the same : Forasmuch as we haue lately in this most dangerous and desperate action of Rebellion , had most euident and full proofe of the loyall and true hearts and setled and vnmoouebale affections , aswell of the rest of our Subiects , as specially of our Citizens of London , whereby we do to our great comfort foresee there can grow now account of disturbance of our peace and quiet , but from such refuse and vagabond people :

Therefore we doe streightly command and charge all persons , that such loose people , hauing no certaine dwelling or abode within the Citie and Suburbs thereof , or otherwise no sufficient cause of stay or lawfull businesse , presently anoyde , and get them downe into the Countrey , vpon paine of death by Marshall Lawe , to be executed vpon them , And doe in like maner commaund all people of like sort and condition , or any other persons that cannot yeelde some reasonable cause of their repaire , to forbeare to come out of the Countrey to our saide Citie , or the Suburbs thereof , vpon like paine : And wee doe streightly charge as well our Prouost Marshall , as the Constables and others , to whom it may appertaine , to apprehend such offendours , that they be proceeded with , with all care and diligence , as they will answere it at their vttermost perill .

Giuen at our Palace of Westminster the fifteenth day of Februarie 1600. in the three and fortieth yeere of our Raigne . God saue the Queene .
