Parliament before his Peers The King made answer That he would attend to the common affairs and after hear others The Articles of the Commons First That the great Charter may in all points be observed so as such persons as are neither appealed indicted or followed at the suit of the party and yet have their goods and lands and possessions taken from them may be restored thereto again That the Chancellor and other Officers there named shall upon their entries into their offices be always sworn to observe the Laws of the Land and points of the great Charter That every man for debts due to the Kings Ancestors may have therefore Charters of pardon of course out of the Chancery That certain by Commission may hear the accounts of all such as received wooll aid or other money for the King and that the same may be enrolled in the Chancery That the Ordinances made at Northampton That men of ev●l life and name should be attached whereby sundry honest men by colour thereof have been arrested may be repealed That many Commissions whereby sundry men have been fined by the Commissioners outragiously may be revoked and new granted to others That the Chancellor and all other Officers there named may be chosen in open Parliament they also there openly sworne to observe all Laws as aforesaid And the meaning of the Lords and Commons by one assent is That all things in the Statute wherein the Ninths are granted should be kept otherwise they think themselves not bound to pay any where if the King should grant those things in the Petitions they will then make him reasonable answer They also pray that till the Wednesday then ensuing their Articles may be committed to certain Bishops Earls Barons and other wise men there named by them to be amended the which the King granted The Articles of the Clergy The same day the Archbishop of Canterbury and other Bishops exhibited to the King certain Petitions viz. First they shew how sundry Clerks were imprisoned by the Kings Officers without due Process That the liberties of the Church and all liberties granted to any estate may be kept and that the Great Charter may be newly proclaimed and by oath confirmed That such Clerks and Lay-men as are imprisoned against the order of the Great Charter may be delivered That the Justices upon the Sheriffs return that a Clerk hath no Lay-fee awardeth a Capias without any Writ to the Bishop and so upon a Condemnation against a Clerk causeth the same to be levied without any Writ to the Bishop against the priviledge of the Church That sundry of the Kings Officers and others have entred into divers Religious houses and Parsonages and by force taken away their goods and further upon oaths extorted upon those persons have enquired of things within their houses and them so found have carried away That the Justices have punished Usurers and impeached the Officers of the Church for taking money for Corporal pain Probate of W●lls solemnizing of Marriage That the Kings Officers have levied of Parsons of the Churches the Ninth of their Corn Wooll and Lamb where they ought to pay their Tenths Touching the Petitions of the Clergy the Kings Answer was openly read in the Parliament the which because the Clergy liked not they desired a Copy of the same to deliberate thereupon which was granted In the end the Answer was as followeth The Answer to the Clergy The Kings meaning is not that any Clerk should be attached against Law To the second He would the observation of the Great Charter and other Liberties which being exemplified under the Great Seal he thinketh may suffice and that there needeth no other swearing thereto considering that within the Realm there are already too many forsworne To the third He is ready to hear if any be imprisoned against the Law or Statute of Northampton To the fourth The Process and order therein are avowable by Law and neither would the King that any man should enter into the Churches Fee against their liberties The King would not that any of his Officers should enter into any of the Kings Churches lands or to take any their goods but if Lay-men to defraud the King do bring their goods thither the King thinketh himself to be wronged To the seventh The King will have the punishment of dead Usurers and the Ordinaries of living Usurers And touching money for pains pecuniary Probate of Wills solemnity of Marriage and such like the King would not his Officers to have any Cognisance To the eighth He would not the Ninths or Tenths to be paid otherwise then the same was granted viz. of such as hold by a Barony or use to be summoned to the Parliament But if any of the Church have appropriated any possessions heretofore not taxed that then they pay the Ninth by the equity of the Statute The Saturday after the King answered the Demands of the Lords in manner following The King granteth for him and his heirs That if any person commit any act against the form of the Great Charter or any other good Law that he shall answer in Parliament or else where he ought to answer according to the Law And to the Commons Petitions an Answer was made as followeth To the first He will as in the Answer to the Lords To the second for the Oath of his Officers He would the same To the third for pardoning of Debts He granteth To the fourth he granteth so as the Treasurer and Chief Baron may be adjoined To the fifth He revoketh the Statute made at Northampton To the sixth the King willeth the same be done in the presence of him of the Lords and certain of the Commons To the seventh The King liketh that if any such Officer dyeth or otherwise shall fall void that in the choice of a new Officer he shall have the assent of the Nobles and that such Officer shall be sworne at the next Parliament according to the Petition And at every Parliament the King shall reassume into his hands all such Offices so as the said Officers shall answer unto all objections Hereupon at the request of the whole Estate these Articles were Statutes as on the back of the Roll doth appear the which Statutes with the conditions were after read before the King the Chancellor Treasurer Justices of both Benches Steward of the Kings Chamber and others all who were sworn upon the Crosse of Canterbury to perform the same only the Chancellor Treasurer and certain of the Justices refused the same Oath as repugnant to their former Oath and Laws of the Realm The which Statutes and Conditions together with the Commissions for the enquiry of oppressions were exemplified
declared the causes of the Parliament in effect following viz. How the King in his weighty Affairs had always used their counsel and assent And lastly in taking the last peace with the French on conditions following viz.
