taken by us in searching ancient Records in the Tower of Londō in other places after great dispute made herevpon in open house by many learned Lawyers we found it cleare in our opiniō that impositions layd upon merchandize or other goods of the subiects of this Realme by the Kings Maiesty with out the free consent of the subiectes in Parliament was not lawfull and therefore we did make and passe a bill by the generall consent of the house of Commons intended by us all to be a lawe thereby to declare that by the lawes of England no imposition could be lawfully layd vpon goods or merchandize of the subiects of England without consent of the subiects in Parliament And because that many subiects were greatly troubled by purueyance and cartaking notwithstanding the good lawes in that behalf made to restraine the same a bill was preferred by some member of the house for reformation of that abuse at the beginning of the last Sessions of Parliament which bill by all likelihood had long since passed this howse of commons if the matter of purveyance had not been comprehended in the great contract which matter of great contract being nowe ended a new bill concerning purveyance and cartaking is in my hands now presently to be delivered into the house to receive such proceeding therin as shal be thought meet And touching wardship tenures because it is thought a heavie law and grievous to the subjects after the death of the father to have the sonne heire within age taken from the mother and kindred to be bought and sold with the heire also to take all the lands and tenements of the father that should many times mainteyne both the heire the rest of the children for the onely benefit of the gardian therefore we made a very large offer to free the land thereof which we laboured earnestly to effect but God hath not blessed it nor brought to good effect any of those good intended lawes above by me mentioned although we much desired the same and had done therein as much as perteyned to vs to doe which if they had been well effected and passed as lawes and statutes and that all such grievances concerning the Church and cōmon wealth as wee carefully cōmended unto his Ma in writing whereof the copies doe remain in this house had procured such amendemēt of things as we expected it had made England so honourable and happy in the government thereof as ever was kingdome in this world as I think And which when the same shal be well effected will as I think make both King and subjects more happy then ever they were For if all these thinges had so concurred togither as wee wished and laboured for what would wee not give to supply the Kings wants and to support him in a most Roiall princely estate But rebus sic stantibus as is before declared without reformation of those things which were by us so earnestly sought we cannot give much to supplie the Kings wants because we know no certainty of that which should remaine to us after our gift so as in mine opinion the good proceeding of this Parliament hath not been hindred by us which is all I meant to say at this time The particulars to be contracted for in consideration of two hundred thousand pounds per annum to be paid unto his Majestie 1.
