New port September 23. 1648. Soit baillè aux seigneurs, a ceste bille les seigneurs sont assentuz: an act which His Maiesty hath promised his royall word to passe, : for justifying the proceedings of Parliament in the late vvar, and for declaring all oathes, declarations, proclamations, and other proceedings against it to be void. Agreed on between His Majesty and the Commissioners, at Newport in the Isle of VVight.
Whereas the Lords and Commons have been forced to make war in self-defence, and certain oaths, declarations, and proclamations have been made against them, judgements given, and grants of their lands made. These are all void, and no man is to award any writ, or pronounce any sentence against any member of these Houses for any such cause -- Steele.
