And a while before the Abbot was made a Bishop at London petente Milone Constabulario favore Populi utriusque Ordinis that is the Lords and Commons or rather the Clergy and Laity In Huntingdon we read of Robert Arch-Deacon of Leicester about this Time Elect Bishop of Lincoln Rege Clero Populo summo gaudio annuente And a while after he shews us the King at London in a full Parliament disputing the grand question of Appeals with the Romish Legate For such Appeales saith he had not been used in England till That Henry of Winton the Legate had cruelly intruded them Malo suo crudeliter intrusit The Monk of St. Albans borroweth from him and sometimes repayeth with interests As in that Statute for Priviledge of Churches and Church-yards with all the Clergy so that none but the Pope could absolve from violence done to such in which they all agree he added also another Act of the Parliament that Plowes in the Field with Husbandmen should enjoy the same Peace or priviledge as if they were in a Church-yard His Geffry de Mandevil Consul or Comes was a very great man de magna villa For he speaks of his Princeps Militiae and of another that was his Magister peditum But in Henry of Huntingdon we find him at length clapt up in Prison but scarcely secundum jus Gentium Rex cepit eum in curia sua ex necessitate magis quam ex honestate Hoveden hath of him the like expressions adding also that from a Baron he had been raised to the degree of a Consul that is an Earl For in him the Earl of Flanders is Consul Flandrensis and the Earl of Anjou Consul Andegavensis This was he that come to be Hen. the 2d who at his Landing being Duke of Normandy coyned money which passed here by the name of the Dukes coyn Nor only he but Omnes potentes tam Episcopi quam Comites Barones suam faciebant monetam and of this Nubrigensis Which may be compared with the Saxon Laws of King Ethelstan and others As K. Hen. monetag common In the same Huntingdon we also read that by the Mediation of Theobald of Canterbury and Henry of Winton the King was so reconciled to this Duke and Earl Henry that they never more discorded also that the Duke was made Iusticiarius Angliae next under the King omnia Regni Negotia per eum terminabantur But in Polydore we find this Pacification made by Parliament Cujus Authoritate pactio facta est Matthew Paris is so full of Law Terms that I could beleive him in this to allude to the Law Fines and Recoveries For at this peace he telleth how the Kingdom was again Recovered And after a disgression to Merlins Prophesie in which the phrase of Vice-comites may be duly considered he concludeth thus a War that had raged 17 years together was now quieted by such a Time hoc fine quievit To which he adds that famous story of the Souldier that in this Vacation made a Voyage to St. Patricks Purgatory And by that occasion he relates the best description of Hell or Hellish Torments that I remember in any Historian of credit With which may be compared divers others in the same Author But that which is added at the Souldier return to the King may be added also to what is observed before touching Irelands dependance on England For the same Souldier was again sent by King Stephen into Ireland to be Assistant as an interpreter to Gilbert who had a grant from hence to found an Abbey in Ireland Whither he also carried this Souldier speaking Irish and with Tears he would often relate his Voyage to Hell Which is so recorded and asserted by divers Religious men To K. Stephen's Militia we may also refer that which so many Historians Record of his damning the Hidage or Danegeld Which yet was not his Act but the Parliaments that did Elect and create him King We must discuss it more fully ere long but now for Danegeld we may assert it to be expressed in his very Coronation Oath on which he was admitted One of the clauses was that he should for ever desist from that which had been paid to some of his Predecessors singulis annis And Wendover or Paris express no more But in Hoveden and Huntingdon Dane-geld is expresly specified which both affirm to be then at 2 s. the Hyde They agree also with others That this was again specified in Parliament at Oxford Where the King did again confirm his Coronation Oath Matthew of Westminster doth also Record that of these promises or Oaths he made a Charter which seemeth to be that Charter which the great Reporter in his 8th part affirmeth to be yet found in an old MS. de antiquis Legibus And that the said Charter among divers other things doth expressely confirm the Laws of K. Edward and of K. Henry Nay the Monk of St. Albans affirmeth that in Parliament Congregatis Regni magnatibus he did there solemnly promise to meliorate the Laws or make them better as they should desire or require juxta voluntatem Arbitrium singulorum which we may consider again upon occasion Nor must I omit that much of this very Charter is yet to be read in Print in an old Monk that lived in King Stephen Time and those particulars for confirmation of all good Laws and in special those of King Henry with divers other things that are worth perusal It is in the Monk of Malmsbury but a little after the Letters written to the Pope about King Henries death confession absolution and Anoynting by the Elders according to what was let to the Church by the Apostle St. Iames as in those Letters is more fully expressed Which may be added to that before of the Church Elders Polydore telleth us that in full Parliament at Oxford King Stephen did abolish that which had been oft exacted for Hydage per singula jugera and that he intreated another Parliament to carry on that War which by their Advise and Councel had been undertaken in the Name of Common Wealth Reipublicae Nomine vestro cum Consilio tum Consensu susceptum est and his desire to them was so to act in Person that the People might not be burthened with Taxes And at his end Virgil addeth that for all his continual Wars he did exact little or no Tribute from the People So that the Parliament it seems did wholly manage his Militia From a long Storm at Sea we are now come into a quiet Port and a calm Haven such were the Thoughts Expectations and Hopes of All in Henry the 2d We have his Laws in Print in several places and his Lawyers known enough For who needeth to be told of Glanvil in his Reign of whom before and much I might add from divers others besides Hoveden Who by occasion of that Judges Name hath not only given us a Copy of St. Edwards Laws but hath also asserted their confirmation by
