The Parliament holden at Westminster in the Quindene of St. Michael in the Sixth year of Henry the Sixth IN the Quindene of St. Michael being the thirteenth day of October before the King sitting in the Chamber de pinct the Lords and Commons being present Iohn Arch Bishop of York being Chancellor of England declared the cause of the Parliament taking for his Theam Machab. 2. cap. 4. Sine providentia regali impossibile est pacem regibus dare wherein he noted two points the one the duty of the Prince towards the Subjects the other the duty of the Subjects towards the Prince To the first he affirmed three things to belong viz. That the Subjects should be kept from forein Invasion that Peace might be kept within the realm and that Justice should be indifferently ministred And that three things belonged to the Subjects viz. First largely to relieve the Prince in cases of defence In peace readily to obey all Magistrates And humbly to submit himself to the lawes The which the better to accomplish the King had assembled the same Parliament whereby he also would that all Estates should enjoy their liberties And for expedition herein he willed the Commons to make choice and presentation of their Speaker the next day to the King accordingly Receivers of Petitions for England Ireland Wales and Scotland Receivers of Petitions for Gascoyne and other places beyond the Seas and of the Isles Tryers of Petitions for England c. as above Tryers of Petitions for Gascoyne c. as above On the fifteenth day of October the Commons presented before the King and Lords Iohn Tirrill Esq to be their Speaker whose excuse made and not allowed he with the common protestation was liked The Chancellor by the appointment of the Duke of Gloucester to whom the Kings Letters Patents were made for proroguing the Parliament did the same prorogue from the eighth day
