The Oath of Allegiance , Enacted 13. Jacobi , Cap. 4. Which Oath was solemnly taken by every Member of both Houses of PARLIAMENT , RUMP and all .

I A. B. do truly and sincerely acknowledge , professe , testifie , and declare in my Conscience before God and the World , That our Soveraign Lord KING CHARLS is lawfull and rightfull King of this Realm , and of all other His Majesties Dominions and Countreys ; and that the Pope neither of himself , nor by any Authority of the Church or See of Rome , or by any other means with any other , hath any power or authority to depose the King , or to dispose any of his Majesties Kingdomes or Dominions , or to authorize any forreign Prince to invade or annoy him , or his Countreys , or to discharge any of his Subjects of their Allegiance , and obedience to his Majesty , or to give License , or leave to any of them to bear Arms , raise Tumult , or to offer any violence or hurt to his Majesties Royal Person , State or Government , or to any of His Majesties Subjects within His Majesties Dominions .

Also , I do swear from my heart , That , notwithstanding any Declaration , or Sentence of Excommunication , or Deprivation made or granted , or to be made or granted by the Pope , or his Successors , or by any Authority derived , or pretended to be derived from him , or his See , against the said King , His Heirs , or Successors , or any Absolution of the said Subjects from their obedience : I will bear Faith and true Allegiance to His Majesty , His Heirs and Successors ; and him and them will defend to the uttermost of my power , against all Conspiracies and Attempts whatsoever , which shall be made against His , or their Persons , their Crown and Dignity , by reason or colour of any such Sentence or Declaration , or otherwise : and will do my best endeavour to disclose and make known unto His Majesty , His Heirs and Successors , all Treasons and Traiterous Conspiracies which I shall know or hear of to be against Him , or any of them .

And I do further swear , that I do from my heart abhor , detest , and abjure , as impious and heretical , this damnable Doctrine and Position , That Princes which be Excommunicated or deprived by the Pope , may be depos'd , or murther'd by their Subjects , or any other whatsoever .

And I do believe and in conscience am resolved , that neither the Pope nor any person whatsoever , hath power to absolve me of this Oath , or any part thereof , which I acknowledge by good and full Authority to be lawfully ministred unto me ; and do renounce all Pardons and Dispensations to the contrary : And all these things I do plainly and sincerely acknowledge and swear , according to these express words by me spoken , and according to the plain and common sence and understanding of the same words , without any Equivocation , or mental Evasion , or secret Reservation whatsoever . And I do make this Recognition and acknowledgement heartily , willingly and truly , upon the true Faith of a Christian .

So help me God .

Printed for the benefit of those Persons who have forgotten that they did once take this Oath . Anno Dom . 1660.
