Therefore if the misfortunes and calamities of his poor Protestant subjects there shall grow upon them ... he shall wash his hands before all the word, from the least imputation of slacknesse in that most necessary work." Reaffirming also his desire to acknowledge and respect the privileges of parliament but requiring (particularly as regards the Militia) that no law be passed without his express approval.ENGLISH PRE 1701; WING; BROADSIDE; CHARLES I; HISTORY; ENGLAND; ; ; ; ; ;
