HIs Majestie having seen a Printed Paper, entituled, A Question answered how Laws are to be understood, and Obedience yeelded; (which Paper He sends together with this Message) thinks fit to recommend the consideration of it to His House of Peers, that they may use all possible care and diligence for the finding out the Author, and may give directions to His learned Coun­cell, to proceed against Him and the publishers of it, in such a way as shall be agreeable to Law and the course of Justice, as persons who indeavour to stir up Sedition against His Majestie. And His Majestie doubts not but they will be very sensible how much their own particular Interest (as well as the publike government of the Kingdom) is, and must be shaken, if such Licence shall be permitted to bold factious spirits to withdraw His Subjects strict obe­dience from the Laws established, by such Seditious and Treasonable distinctions. And of Doctrines of this nature His Majestie doubts not but that their Lordships will publish their great dislike, it being grown into frequent Discourse, and vented in some Pulpits (by those desperate turbulent Preachers, who are the great Promotors of the distempers of this time) That humane Laws do not binde the Conscience; which being once beleeved, the civill Government and Peace of the Kingdom will be quickly dissolved. His Majestie expects a speedy account of their Lordships exem­plary Justice upon the Authors and Publishers of this Paper.
