¶ By the Queene.
A Proclamation for keeping of the peace in London.

THe Queenes Maiestie commandeth all manner her Subiects of what degree soeuer they bee to keepe the peace as they be bound, and specially towards all manner of persons of strange Nations within her Maiesties Citie of London, or else­where, without reproches of words, or like quarrels, and to re­mit the auenge of all quarrels past of late in the same Citie to the ordinary Iusticers. And the like also her Maiestie commandeth to all Strangers borne to be obserued on their part: And for the satisfaction of all sorts, both English and Strangers, her Maiestie most straightly commandeth her Maior of London, and all other Iusticers, as they will answere at their perils duely to see with in­differencie, and without any partiality, the first occasioners next hereafter of quarrels and frayes, to be seuerely punished to the example of others, like as it is presently ordered by her Maiestie, that the whole circumstance of certaine frayes in London, betwixt her Subiects and certaine Strangers shalbe duely examined and tryed, and according to the Lawes of the Realme, iudged and determined. For this is her Highnes determination, that no par­tiall fauor be shewed to English or Stranger, but that euery of them shall liue in the safetie and protection of her Lawes.


¶ God saue the Queene.
