WE cannot but call to mind that as the Declaration set out and published by the late Lords Justices and Council , bearing date the 30th . of April , 1662. did so far indulge those Recusants , Non-conformists and Sectaries , who were misguided and did not conform to the Laws of the Land , concerning Uniformity of Common Prayer and Service in the Church , and the Administration of the Sacraments , that they were not to be further proceeded against for the Offences then past ; so that Proclamation conteined also a premenition to them , that no person or persons were for the time then to come to expect the like indulgence , and yet it is found that that extension of His Majesties gracious clemency towards them , hath not wrought those effects of Conformity in those persons , which that high favour from His Majesty hath deserved : And although His Majesty might be thereby provoked , and that most-justly , to proceed against them with that strictness which is due to such great contempts , not onely of His Laws , but also of His Clemency : Yet considering that we well know that such is His Majesties aboundant goodness and tenderness towards His Subjects , as he wishes rather that those of them who are misguided , may be won by gentleness , than by the strict execution of His Laws : And considering also that We do believe that the rendring hitherto fruitless the hopes We had of their Conformity , proceeded rather from the seducement of others , than from evil in the mindes of the people themselves , therefore as a means to preserve the people front the danger of such seducement , as We did formerly give Orders for suppressing unlawful Assemblies , so We have larely directed Our Letters into leberal parts of this Kingdome , to remove the persons of some Ministers , or pretended Ministers , whereby they may not have such opportunity as they have hitherto had to continue their evil practises in seduting too many of the People : And We conceiving that from thence may yet follow the desired Conformity from them ; and considering likewise , That We now find that some attempts have been made to draw into the late borried Conspiracy for taking His Majesties Castle of Dublin , some persons that are as yet Non-conformists , and that they ( agreeable to the duty and loyalty of good Subjects to His Majesty ) utterly declined any Conjunction in so Traiterous a Design , We therefore judge it fit once more to make a further trial if by any gentle ways or means the seduced people may be reclaimed ; and to that end do hereby declare , That for the time past all Offences committed against His Majesties said Law of Uniformity of Common Prayer and Service in the Church , and the Administration of the Sacraments , shall be no further proceeded against before any His Majesties Judges of Assize or Justices of the Peace , but that there be a stop put to all proceedings and penalties for such Offences for the said time past .

And as We have taken this course to prevent any such trouble or punishment to the people by Authority of the Temporal Courts , so We are well assured that We need not give any directions to the Arch-Bishops or Bishops as to the Spiritual Courts in regard We are well satisfied that such is the Piety and Moderation of the Arch-Bishops and Bishops , that they are willing and ready without looking back into the former Errors of any of the People , to receive and imbrace into the Bosome of the Church all such of them as shall desire to conform themselves .

And We do further Declare , that after the 24th , day of December next , no person or persons are to expect the like indusgence , but that all Judges of Assize and Justices of Peace , and all others concerned , are thenceforth to see the said Law duely put in execution : Provided , That this indulgence extend not to any Minister , or pretended Minister , that shall go about to disswade the People from their Obedience to the said Law : And of this Our Declaration We require all his Majesties Judges , Justices of Peace , Sheriffs , and all other Officers whatsoever whom it may concern to take notice , and to take rare that any Writ or Process issued for attaching any persons for any the said Offences past as aforesaid , be not executed .
