A Declaration of His Majesties Royall Pleasure, in What Sort He Thinketh Fit to Enlarge, or Reserve Himselfe in Matter of Bountie (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from A Declaration of His Majesties Royall Pleasure, in What Sort He Thinketh Fit to Enlarge, or Reserve Himselfe in Matter of Bountie I have examined the little book in the Museum Library, and quite understand why it is not included in K. J ames's works. It is not a personal production of his own, but an official declaration issued in his name, like any other declaration or proclamation. Though it was printed in 1610 (la, between March 25, 1610, and March 25, it was drawn up in the end of 1608, and was one of Salisbury's many attempts to check J ames's extravagance. You will find it 111 various forms amongst the State Papers Domestic XXXVII., 72 - 76 (mrs. E. Green's Calendar, 1603 - 10, p. The only interest that attaches itself to the date of publi cation is to show that it was printed in connection either with the Great Contract or with the break-up of the Parlia ment. I do not remember any evidence which would fix the date to the month. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
