A Declaration. Upon The Statute Of 5H.4. Whereby The Commission Of Array Is Supposed To Be Warranted: Together With Divers Other Statutes. As Also His Majesties Letter To The Sherif Of Leicestershire. July 1This 1642 pamphlet presents a detailed legal argument by Parliament against a Commission of Array, arguing that the authority to compel arms and train subjects is not grounded in the Statute of 5 Henry IV, and that earlier statutes and the Petition of Right limit royal power. It traces the history of arms-bearing laws from Edward I to Henry IV, and explains that previous Parliaments attempted to regulate or repeal such commissions. The document includes the Lords and Commons' concerns about liberty and property, the proclamations and statutes cited, and ends with the King's Proclamation authorizing array and the printed proceedings, including the signatures and messages to the counties. The work illustrates the constitutional tensions of the English Civil War era and the ongoing struggle between Parliament and the Crown over militarization of subjects.
