edition of banes in a private Chamber a prophane place and not openly in the face of the Church after the Law of Gods Church but contrary thereunto and the laudable custom of the Church of England and how also at the time of the contract of the same pretended Mariage and before and long time after the said King Edward was and stood maried and troth-plight to one Dame Elinor Butler daughter to the Earl of Shrewsbury with whom the said King Edward had made a Pre-contract of Matrimony long time before he made the said pretended Mariage with the said Elizabeth Gray in manner and form aforesaid Which premisses being true as in very truth they be true it appeareth and followeth evidently that the said King Edward during his life and the said Elizabeth lived together sinfully and damnably in adultery against the Law of God and of his Church and therefore no marvel that the Soveraign Lord and head of the land being of such ungodly disposition and provoking the ire and indignation of our Lord God such heynous mischief and Inconveniences as are above remembred were used and committed in the Realm amongst the Subjects Also it appeareth evidently and followeth that all the issue and children of the said King Edward be Bastards and unable to inherit or claim any thing by inheritance by the Law and custom of England Moreover we consider how that afterwards by the three Estates of this Realm assembled in Parliament holden at Westminster Anno 17. of the reign of the said King Edward the fourth he then being in possession of the Crown and royal Estate by Act made in the same Parliament George Duke of Clarence brother to the King Edward now deceased was convicted and attainted of High Treason as in the said Act is contained more at large because and by reason whereof all the issue of the said George was and is disabled and barred of all right and claim that in any case they might have or challenge by inheritance to the Crown and Dignity royal of this Realm by the antient Laws and Customs of this same Realm Over this we consider that you be the undoubted heir of Richard Duke of York very inheritor of the said Crown and dignity royal and as in right King of England by way of Inheritance And that at this time the premises duely considered there is none other person living but you onely that may claim the said Crowne and Dignity royal by way of Inheritance and how that you be born within this Land by reason whereof as we deem in our minds you be more naturally inclined to the prosperity and common-weal of the same And all the three Estates of the Land have and may have more certain knowledge of your birth and filiation aforesaid We consider also thâ— great Wit Prudence Justice Princely courage and the memorable and laudable acts in divers battels which as we by experience know you heretofore have done for the defence and salvation of this Realmâ— and also the great noblenesse and excellency of your birth and bloud as of him that is descended of the three most royal houses of Christendome that is to say England France and Spain Wherefore these premises duly by us considered we desiring effectually the peace tranquillity and weal publique of this Land and the reduction of the same to the antient honourable estate and prosperity And having in your great prudent Justice Princely courage and excellent vertue singular confidence have chosen in all that in us is and by that our Writing choose you high and mighty Prince our King and Soveraign Lord c. to whom we know of certain it appertaineth of Inheritance so to be chosen And hereupon we humbly desire pray and require your most Noble grace that according to this election of us theâ— Three Estates of your Land as by inheritance you will accept and take upon you the said Crown and royal dignity with all things thereunto annexed and appertaining as to you of right belonging as well by inheritance as by lawfull election and in case you so do we promise to assist and serve your Highnesse as true and faithfull Subjects and Liege-men and to live and dye with you in this matter and in every other just quarrel for certainly we be determined rather to adventure and commit us to the peril of our lives and jeopardy of death than to live in such thraldom and bondage as we have done long time heretofore oppressed and injured by Extortions and new Impositions against the Law of God and Man and the liberties and old policy and Laws of this Land wherein every Englishman is inherited Our Lord God King of all Kings by whose infinite goodnesse and eternal providence all things been principally governed in this world lighten your Soul and grant you grace to do as well in this matter as in all other that which may be according to his will and pleasure and to the common and publique weal of this Land So that after great clouds troubles storms and tempests the Sun of Justice and of Grace may shine upon us to the joy and comfort of all true-hearted English men Albeit that the right title and estate which our Soveraign Lord King Richard the Third hath to and in the Crown and royal dignity of this Realm of England with all things thereunto within the same Realm and without it annexed and appertaining been just and lawfull as grounded upon the Laws of God and Nature and also upon the antient Laws and laudable Customs of this said Realm And also taken and reputed by all such persons as been learned in the abovesaid Lawes and Customs Yet neverthelesse for as much as it is considered that the most part of the people is not sufficiently learned in the abovesaid Laws and Customs whereby the truth and right in this behalf of likelihood may be hid and not clearly known to all the people and thereupon put in doubt and question And over this how that the Court of Parliament is of such authority and the people of this Land of such a nature and disposition as experience teacheth that manifestation and declaration of any truth or right made by the Three estates of this Realm assembled in Parliament and by authority of the same maketh before all other things most faith and certain quieting of mens minds and removeth the occasion of doubts and seditious language Therefore at the request and by the assent of the Three Estates of this Realm that is to say the Lords Spiritual and Temporal and Commons of this Land assembled in this present Parliament and by authority of the same be it pronounced decreed and declared that our said Soveraign Lord the King was and is the very undoubted King of this Realm of England with all things thereunto within the same Realm and
