WHereas by Our Proclamation , bearing date the eleuenth day of December last past , ( for the reasons in that Our Proclamation expressed ) Wee did straitly commaund , that none of Our Subiects should harbour or conceale the sayd Smith , but that foorthwith they should arrest and apprehend his bodie , and bring him before the next Iustice of Peace , to the place where hee should bee apprehended , whom Wee thereby commanded to commit him to prison without Bayle or Maineprise , and presently to enforme vs , or Our Priuie Counsell , of his apprehension : And Wee did thereby declare , That if any person should then after , directly or indirectly , harbour or conceale the sayd Smith , or vse , or conniue at any meanes , whereby the sayd Smith might escape from beeing apprehended or arrested , that Wee should extend the vttermost seueritie of Our Lawes against euery such offender , as by Our Proclamation more at large appeareth ; Which Our Proclamation hath not yet wrought that good effect which Wee expected , the sayd Smith beeing still hidden and harboured by those , who , beeing infected and blinded with Popish superstition , preferre their respects to him , before their duetie to vs , and the feare of Our high displeasure , and the consequence thereof ; Wee therefore , by the aduice of Our Priuie Counsell , haue thought fit by this Our second Proclamation to renew Our former command in that behalfe .

And to the end that none of Our Subiects may hereafter excuse themselues by a pretended ignorance of the danger they shall fall into , if they shall harbour or conceale him ; Wee doe hereby publish and declare , That the sayd Smith is not onely a Popish Priest , and with a high presumption taketh vpon him to exercise Ecclesiasticall Iurisdiction , pretended to bee deriued from the Sea of Rome , within this Our Realme , and endeauoureth to seduce Our Subiects from the true Religion established in the Church of England , ( which , by Gods assistance Wee shall euer constantly maintaine ) but doeth also seditiously and traiterously hold correspondence with Our enemies , tending to the destruction of Our State .

And therefore Wee doe now againe renew Our former command for his apprehension , and doe hereby further signifie , That whosoeuer shall Lodge , Harbour , or Relieue the sayd Smith , or any other Priest , Iesuite , or other , hauing taken Orders by authoritie pretended to bee deriued from the Sea of Rome , shall incurre the danger of Our Lawes made against the Harbourers , Lodgers , and Relieuers of Priests , to the full extent thereof , which by the Statutes of this Our Realme is Felonie .

And Wee doe further hereby declare , ( which Wee shall really performe ) That whosoeuer shall discouer the sayd Smith , and cause him to bee apprehended , as aforesayd , shall haue a reward of one hundred pounds in money , to bee presently payd vnto him by vs , and shall also haue the benefit of all such Penalties and Forfeitures , which shall or may accrue vnto vs , and bee forfeited by that person , in whose house the sayd Smith shall bee found to haue beene harboured or concealed .

And Wee further charge and command heereby , ( as by Our former Proclamation Wee did ) all and singuler Our Iudges , Iustices of Peace , Maiors , Shiriffes , Constables , and all other Our Officers , Ministers and louing Subiects , That if they shall finde any person offending herein , that then they , and euery of them , proceede with all diligence and readinesse , not onely against the sayd Smith , but also against all such as shall harbour , conceale , or conniue at his concealement , or shall not vse their best endeauours for his discouery and apprehension , according to the vttermost extent of Our Lawes .
