WE being informed that as well in the Troops lately come out of England , who made a descent into this Our Kingdom , under the command of Mareshal Schomberge , as in those who formerly have taken Arms 〈◇〉 against us , there are many Officers and Souldiers , as well Our 〈◇〉 as Strangers inlisted , and engaged with Our Enemies ; the first 〈◇〉 for want of taking due consideration of the consequence of Treason and rebellion , suffering themselves to be deluded by those , who under many false ●●etensions labour'd to perswade them to joyn with our Enemy , than out of 〈◇〉 treasonable intention , or want of Affection to vs their Lawful Sove●aign ; The other for want of reflecting upon the unlawfulness of their acti●ns , which tend to promote Injustice and Vsurpation . And being further ●●formed that they are now so sensible of the fault they committed , that Our subjects among them are ready to return to their Allegiance , in case We ●●ould grant them Our pardon for taking Arms against Vs. And having ●aken the same into Our Princely consideration , and being not only inclined to 〈◇〉 clemency , but also to be favourable to such of the said Officers and Soul●iers as shall come to Our Army , in order to Fight for vs , their lawful Prince , against Our Enemy ; We do hereby Publish and Declare , that We will not only Grant Our Royal Pardon to all such Officers and Souldiers , whether Subjects or Strangers , whether they be come out of England under the Command of Mareshal Schomberge , or acted here before against vs , but that they shall have the like Command and Imployment in Our Service , that they now have among Our Enemy ; and shall be Promoted and Preferr'd to better Imployment , according their merit , and shall enjoy the same liberty and freedom any other of Our faithful Subjects , of what perswasion soever in Religion do enjoy ; provided that they return to their Duty , and joyn with Our Army before the 〈◇〉 day of 〈◇〉 next ensuing the date hereof . But in case any of them refuse to accept of this Our Royal Offer , We do hereby declare , that they shall be dealt with according to the utmost rigour of the Common Law , and Martial Law of this Our Kingdom .
