de Foresta hath been above Thirty times and lastly in 4 Hen. 5. confirmed and enacted and commanded to be put in execution Co. Inst 4. Part. Fol. 303. And it is very observable that if any Act of Parliament hath been made against any of the Articles of the Statute of Carta de Foresta by the Act of Parliament of 42. E. 3. the same is made void and by the Statute of Confirmationes Cartarum in 25. E. 1. all Judgments given against any of the points of Carta de Foresta shall be holden for void CHAP. III. What Woods made Forest shall be disafforested ALL Woods that have been made Forest by King Richard our Uncle or by King John our Father untill our first Coronation shall be forthwith disafforested unless it be our Demesne Wood. Whereas Henry 2. Fitz Empress claim'd that he might make Forrests not only within his own Woods and Grounds but in the Woods and Grounds of his Subjects and thereupon made divers such Forrests within his own and other mens Woods and Grounds Whereupon some Readers and others that have followed them are of opinion that Henry 2. might de Jure do that which he did This Act of Charta de Foresta which is but a declaratory Law restoring the Subject to his former right is directly against that conceipt as you may see before in the first Chapter of it and to the same effect is this third Chapter Neither could Henry 2. or any other King have made or rais'd a free Chase Park or Warren for himself in any of the grounds of the Subjects for it is truly said in Plowdens Commentaries Lord Berkely's case fol. 236. that the Common Law hath so admeasured Note the Kings Prerogatives that they should not take away nor prejudice the Inheritance of any But we agree that all the Lands of the Subject are originally derived from the Crown And therefore when the Ancient Kings had the most part in their own hands or at least great Desarts Waste and Woody grounds for want of habitation they might make what Forests it pleased them therein which may be a Reason and cause of a lawfull beginning and therefore a Forest may be by Prescription good in Law over other mens grounds But the King in his own grounds may make a Forest at this day which is proved by these two Chapters for such Forests are thereby saved and Enacted to stand Co. 4. Part. Instit fol. 300 301. Desertum id quod ab hominibus deseritur feris relinquitur CHAP. IV. No Purpresture Waste or Assart to be made in Forests ALL Archbishops Bishops Abbots Priors Earls Barons Knights and other our Freeholders who have their Woods in Forests shall have their Woods as they had them at the first ‖ Coronation of Henry our Grandfather so that they shall be quit for ever of all a Purprestures b Wastes and c Asserts made in those Woods after that time untill the beginning of the second year of our Coronation And those who from henceforth do make Purpresture without our Licence or Waste or Assert in the same shall answer unto us for the same Wastes Purprestures and Asserts a Purpresture cometh of the French word purprise or pourpris which signifieth an Inclosure or building and in legal understanding signifieth an encroachment on the King either upon part of the Kings demesne Lands of his Crown which are accounted in Law as re's publicae semper favorabile fuit in Omni Republica Principis patrimonium or in the High wayes or in Common Rivers or in the Common streets of a City or generally when any Common Nusans is done to the King and his people endeavouring to make that private which ought to be publick which Glanvil lib. 9. cap. 11. very aptly describeth in these words Dicitur autem purprestura vel porprestura popriè quando aliquid super Dominum Regem injustè occupatur ut in Dominicis Regis vel in viis publicis obstruct ' vel in aquis publicis transversis à recto cursu vel quando aliquis in Civitate super regiam plateam aliquid aedificando occupaverit generaliter quoties aliquid fit ad nocumentum Regii tenementi vel Regiae viae vel Civitatis Co. 2. Instit fol. 272. It was an Article of the Eyre before the Statute de Bigamis in 4. Ed. 1. to enquire de purpresturis factis super Dominum Regem sive in Terra sive in Mari sive in aqua dulci sive infra libertatem sive extra Cap. itineris id ibid. It appeareth also by Glanvil that there be likewise Purprestures done to Subjects id ibid. b Waste Vastum dicitur à vastando of wasting and depopulating and for that waste is often alledged to be Timber which we call in Latine Maremium or Maresnium or Maresmium it is good to fetch both of them saith my Lord Coke from the Original First Timber is a Saxon word Secondly Maremium is derived of the French word Marreim or Marrein which properly signifieth Timber Co. 1. Instit fol. 52. b. 53. c Assert is so called of the effect as some hold and is derived say they of ad and sero assero because of Wood grounds Marishes or waste grounds they are converted to be sown with Corn and therefore in the Register and F. N. B. it is written assertare with an E. and so it is in this Chapter here in the Latin Bracton † Lib. 4. fol. 226. hereof saith Illud quod fuit aliquando boscus locus vastae solitudinis communia jam inde efficitur Assartum vel redactum est in Culturam And herewith agreeth Fleta lib. 4. c. 22. lib. 2. cap. 25. illud olim fuit Foresta et boscus c. et jam efficitur Assartum reductum est in Culturam et idem dici poterit de Mariscis et aliis vastitatibus in culturam redactis Others fetch it otherwise but we hold that it is derived of the French word essarter to grub up or clear a ground of wood c. and this appeareth by Domesday Hereford-shire Merchela in eodem manerio sunt 58. acrae terrae provect de silva written over the same essars de essart silvae exeunt 17. s. and 4. d.
