and during his captivity, we may afford them redress and consolation, and adopt the measures calculated to ensure their future welfare and tranquillity. X. That, considering the merit acquired by this Province, in having been the first to offer, with heroic fortitude, to its King, the warmest sentiments of its ancient fidelity, and that a great portion of its resources depends upon its industry and commerce, we will grant to its Inhabitants, in particular, all the favours and privileges which may be in our power, in order to promote their interests, which shall be extended to others, who shall be found possessing equal energy, excepting solely those Places which shall manifest disobedience to this Government. XI. That this Supreme Government, being desirous of proving to the whole of Europe that the only sentiments which animate it are, the re-establishment of peace and order, and the destruction of ideas subversive of and contrary to Religion and Thrones, we command all the Authorities subject to our jurisdiction to take especial care that, within the extent thereof, no Person be sheltered, of whatever class or condition he may be, who, either in publick or private, directly or indirectly, may have attempted or shall attempt to overthrow any of the Thrones of Europe, and their legitimate Governments; and that, if any such Criminal be apprehended, he be placed at the disposal of this Supreme Government, for the ulterior measures. XII. That, it being indubitably notorious that the respectable Person of His Majesty is treated with every insult, and that repeated attempts have been made against his estimable life, which is the most secure guarantee of the felicity of Spain, it be declared that, should similar excesses be repeated, notwithstanding the appeal of this Government, which expresses the true wish of the Nation, we will omit no means to cause such chastisement to fall upon the Perpetrators thereof as shall be a warning to future Generations; but that, on the other hand, rewards will be conferred upon those who contribute to His Majesty's defence.
