Also, how Sir Iohn Hinderson and Collonel Cockram were sent to Hamburgh and Denmarke, to raise forces there, and in other forraine parts, to bring into this kingdom. With the names of some who have been proclaimed rebels in Ireland, now in great favor with his Majesty. For which and other reasons they are resolved to enter into a solemne oath and covenant with God to the utmost of their power, with the hazzard of their lives and fortunes to defend the truth against the Kings popish army, and all that shall joyn with them in the prosecution of this wicked designe..
