Hauing obserued in the Presidents and customes of former times , That the Kings and Queenes of this our Realme vpon extraordinary occasions haue vsed either to resort to those contributions which arise from the generality of subjects , or to the private helpes of some well-affected in particular by way of loane ; In the former of which courses as We haue no doubt of the loue and affection of Our people when they shall againe assemble in Parliament , so for the present We are enforced to proceede in the latter course for supply of some portions of Treasure for divers publique services , which without manifold inconveniences to Vs and Our Kingdomes , cannot be deferred : And therefore this being the first time that We haue required any thing in this kind , We doubt not but that We shall receiue such a testimony of good affection from you ( amongst other of Our subjects ) and that with such alacrity and readines as may make the same so much the more acceptable , especially seeing We require but that of some , which few men would deny a friend , and haue a minde resolved to expose all Our earthly fortune for preservation of the generall ; The summe which We require of you by vertue of these presents is _____ which We doe promise in the name of Vs , our Heires and Successours to repay to you or your Assignes within eighteene moneths after the payment thereof vnto the Collector . The person that We haue appointed to collect , is _____ to whose hands we doe require you to send it within twelue dayes after you haue receiued this Privy Seale , which together with the Collectors acquittance , shal be sufficient warrant vnto the Officers of Our Receipt for the repayment thereof at the time limited .
