Incumbit nobis ordinare pro Regno and that is to say It is the Kings will to be governed by the Honorable Discreet and Sage of the Realm and by their common consent and not by his own will ne after his own fashion to rule the same And further enforced that this Realm of any under the Sun might best live of it self and for proof alledged this Authority quod inter Regna hoc principatum tenet 4 He further addeth that to every good government three things belong viz. Justice the Laws duely observed and every Estate in his vocation well governed and thereupon heaped many reasons whereof this Realm ought with all renown to be governed and said further that the King meant to observe those three points 5 He concluded that King Henry their Lord meant to be crowned the Monday ensuing and after that done wholly to addict himself to matters touching the Common-Wealth and prayeth of the Commons the continuance of the Parliament untill the Tuesday ensuing after which Henry de Percie Earl of Northumberland and Constable of England demanded of the Lords and Commons by the Kings commandment whether they would agree to the same continuance who all being severally examined agreed thereunto 6 Receivers of Petitions for England Ireland Wales and Scotland 7 Receivers of Petitions for Gascoin and other places beyond the Seas and of the Isles 8 Tryars of Petitions for England c. as above 9 Tryars of Petitions for Gascoin c. as above The Record of the renunciation of King Richard the Second and the acceptation of the same together with the deposition of the said King 10 On Monday the Feast of St. Michaell in the 23 year of the raign of King Richard The Archbishop of Canterbury the Bishop of Hereford Henry Earl of Northumberland Ralph Earl of Westmerland Hugh Lord Burnell Thomas Lord Berkley the Prior of Canterbury and the Abbot of Westminster William Thurming Knight William Markham Justice Thomas Stow Iohn Burâ—ach Doctors of the Law Thomas of Erpinham and Thomas Gray Knights William Forraby and Dennis Lopham publique Notaries by the assent of sundry of the Lords Spirituall and Temporall and other Lawyers of of all faculties gathered in Councell in Westminster in the place accustomed appointed to execute the Act here underwritten came to the presence of King Richard being in the Tower about nine of the clock 11 The Earl of Northumberland for and in the name of them all remembred the said King Richard of his promise made to the said Arch-Bishop and to him the said Earl at Conway in Wales at what time the said King Richard was at libertie How that he for certain defaults and inabillities in himself to rule would renounce and give up the Crowns of England and France with the whole rule of the same and that by the best advice that could be devised King Richard thereto mildly answered That he would willingly accomplish the same 12 After this the same day Henry Duke of Lancaster accompanied with the persons aforesaid with the Arch-Bishop of Canterbury the Lords of Roos Willoughby and of Burgaveny came into the Tower into the presence of the said King Richard where after familiar talk had between the King the Duke and Arch Bishop of Canterbury and sundry chearfull countenances In the end the same King calling all them that were present said openly That he was ready to make his aforesaid Renunciation and thereupon it was offered that the Instrument should be read by an Order The same King notwithstanding willingly and chearfully took and throughly read the same Instrument in effect following 13 The Instrument contained a clear absolution and discharge of all his Subjects Oaths and Obeysance with free renouncing of all Regiment and Rule and all things belonging thereto to all which he swore upon the Gospell never in thought word or deed to impugn but wholly to observe the same the which Scedule or Instrument he subscribed with his own hand 14 After which done the same King by word affirmed That if it had been in his power he would have appointed the said Duke of Lancaster to have succeeded him which sith it did not he required the said Arch Bishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of Hereford whom he made his Procurators to publish the same to the whol Estates and in token thereof pulled from his own finger a Ring of Gold of his own privy Signet and put the same on the Dukes finger 15 This company bidding the King farewell departed out of the Tower and came the next day into the great Hall of Westminster the place being honorably garnished for the Parliament where the said Arch-Bishop and Duke and other Bishops and Lords after named together with the Commons siting in their accustomed place where also the Kings Seat being very richly decked was void of any President Aâ— which time the Arch-Bishop of Canterbury and Bishop of Hereford caused the renunciation aforesaid to be openly read and declared with all other circumstances of which the Arch Bishop as chief was first demanded and so orderly of all others whether they would admit the same Confession or no all who particularly
admitted the same 16 After which admission it was thought good and expedient over and above the same to expresse by certain Articles the evill government of the King whereby he ought justy to be deposed 17 First was alledged the Kings Oath made at his Coronation 18 The Objections and Articles laid against the King Richard wherefore he was deposed are in the whole the number of 33 worth the noting and well marking 19 First for wasting and bestowing of the lands of the Crown upon unworthy persons and over charging the Commons with Exactions 20 For that the King by undue means procured divers Justices to speak against the Law to the destruction of the Duke of Gloucester and the Earls of Arundell and Warwick at Shrewsbury 21 For that the King against his promise procured the Duke of Ireland sundry Rebels about Cheshire where diverse murders by him were committed 22 For that the King against his own promise and pardon at the solemne procession apprehended the Duke of Gloucester and sent him to Callice there to be choked and murdered beheading the Earl of Arundell and banishing the Earl of Warwick and the Lord Cobham 23 For that the Kings retinue and rout gathered out of Cheshire about the apprehension of those Nobles committed diverse Murders Rapes and other Fellonies besides refusing to pay for their Victualls 24 For that the King condemned the Nobles aforesaid for diverse rodes made within the Realm contrary to his open Proclamation 25 For that the King doubly Fined men for their pardons 26 For that the King to oppress his whole Subjects procured in his lâ—st Parliament that the power thereof was committed to certain Persons 27 For that the King being sworne to minister right did notwithstanding enact in the last Parliament that no mediation should be made for the Duke of Lancaster contrary to his said Oath 28 For that the Crown of England being freed from the Pope and all other forraign power the King notwithstanding procured the Popes Excommunication on such as brake the last Parliament in derogation of the Crown Statutes and Laws of the Realm 29 For that the King banished the Duke of Lancaster for 10. years without any cause as the same King openly affirmed 30. For that the King unlawfully revoked the Letters Patents made to the said Duke of Lancaster as in An 21. Tit. 87. 31 For that the King contrary to the Laws and wills of the Justices suffered Sheriffs to continue longer than one year and placed such therein as were unfit 32. For that the King repayed not to his Subjects debts of them borrowed 33 For that the King in the time of Truce and Peace exacted great Subsidies and wasted the same about frivilous matters 34 For that the King refused to execute the lawes saying that the lawes were in his Mouth and Breast 35 For that the King by procuring by Statutes that he might be free as any of his Progenitors did under colour thereof convert lawes according to his will 36 For this which agreeth with the first part of the thirtieth title before 37 For that the King procured Knights of the Shires to be made to serve his own will 38 For that the King enforced Sheriffs to be sworn to execute all commandements under the great Seal privy Seal or Signet contrary to their accustomed Oaths 39 For that the King to wrack money from his Subjects procured seventeen severall Shires to submit themselves to his Grace whereby great summes of money were levied 40 For that the King being sworn to observe the liberties of the Church notwithstanding at his Voyage into Ireland enforced divers religious persons to give Horse Armour and Carts 41 For that the Justices for their good good councell given to the King were with evill countenance and threats rewarded 42 For that the King of his own will in passing into Ireland carried with him the Treasure Reliques and other Jewels of the Realm which were used safely to be kept in the Kings own Coffers from all hazard and for that the same King cancelled and razed sundry Records 43 For that the King by writing to foraign Princes and to his own Subjects is reputed universally a most variable dissembling man 44 For that the King would commonly say among the Nobles that all Subjects Lives Lands and Goods were in his hands without any forfeiture 45 For that the King suffered his Subjects to be condemned by Marshall Law contrary to his Oath and the Laws of the Realm 46 For that the Subjects being only bound by their allegiance were yet driven to take certain new Oaths for serving the folly of the King 47 For that the King by his private Letters would charge the Ecclesiastical Ministers in any new Canonical matter to stay contrary to his Oath 48 For that the King by force in his Parliament banished the Arch-Bishop of Canterbury without any good ground 49 For that the King by his last will passed under the great Seal and privie Signet gave unto his Successors certain Money and Treasure upon condition to perform all the Acts and Orders in the last Parliament which being ungodly and unlawfull he meant as ungodlily to dye in 50 For that the King in the 11. of his Raign in his Chappell in the Mannour of Langley in the presence of the Duke of Lancaster and York and others received the Sacrament of the Lords Body that he would never impeach the Duke of Gloucester his Uncle for any thing before done and yet to the contrary he procured him to be murdered 51 For that the King most fraudulently and untruely against his own Oath banished the Arch-Bishop of Canterbury and wasted his Goods in which Article in private conference between the King and the said Arch Bishop the King in a manner prophesied and doubted that the like would happen of himself and thereupon shewed a speciall token to the Arch Bishop that if he sent the same at any time that the Arch-Bishop should look that the King would come to him 52 After this for the causes aforesaid and the Kings own confession of his defects the same seemed sufficient to the whole Estates for the Kings deposition whereupon by one consent they appointed the Bishop of Asaph the Abbot of Glastonbury the Earl of Lancaster the Lord Berkley Sir Thomas Erpingham and Sir Thomas Gray Knights and Sir William Thurning Justices Commissioners for giving sentence of deposition and deposing of the same King R. 53 The sentence of deposition by the Commissioners aforesaid 54 This being done Henry Duke of Lancaster so soone as the Kingdome was vacant arose out of his seat and standing upright so as he might be seen of the whole people did humbly cross himself on his

The names of such Lords and others as were at the same Judgement 32. On Wednesday the fifth of March the Commons coming before the King shew how that the States of the Realm might be well resembled to the Trinity viz. the King the Bishops and the Lords and Commons wherein ought to be unitie and therefore prayed the King to appease the Earl of Rutland and the Lord Fitz-Walter both of whom kneeling submitted themselves to the Kings order who promised an order 33. The same day the Commons first and the Lords after pray the King in consideration of the Earls of Rutland and Somerset in the Rebellions tryed to admit them to their Goods Names and Liberties and to his favour as fully as any other Lords notwithstanding the Judgement made against them primo Regis The which with thanks for their motion the King then doth 34. The Commons do grant that after a year and six months the King may reenter upon any of the Farmers for non payment of his Rent except for the Fee Farmes of Lordships Cities and Towns and that from thenceforth the King may make express mention thereof 35. The Commons pray the King that Sir Richard Clifford Keeper of the Privy Seal might enjoy the Bishoprick of Bath and Wells whereto he was commended by the Popes Bull notwithstanding the Statute of Provisors The King answered that could not be so for as much as Master Henry Bonnett was elected thereunto by the Laws of the Realm but otherwise he would remember the same Sir Richard in another time 36. At the request of the Commons it was enacted by the King that Dame Philip late the wife of Robert de Vere Duke of Ireland shall enjoy for her Dower all the Lands as she then had during the minoritie of the heir of Auberie de Vere late Earl of Oxford so as if the said heir at his full age doe confirme her estate that then she should have all the Hereditaments of the said Robert otherwise to forfeit the same and that the said Philip should then have her part during her life as of the Kings gift 37. Upon the Petitions of Sir Ralph Holt and Sir William de Burgh the King restoreth them to their blood and to all their Hereditaments being in the Kings possession or reversion notwithstanding any Judgement given against them in Anno 11 R. 2. 38. The Record and Process given in the Kings Bench against Edmond Basset for certain Lands expressed in 15 R. 2. tit 29. was brought into the Parliament and are annexed to this Record whereupon the Judgement in the Kings Bench for certain Errors was reversed and restitution of the premises with the main profits restored to the said Edmond 39.

Upon the like Petition of the Prior of Newport Pannell as before was granted as Scire facias returnable in the next Parliament 41. The print touching the order of Cisteaux Cap. 4. agreeth with the Record in effect though not in forme 42. The print touching provisions from Rome Cap. 3. agreeth as before 43. The King upon Petition of the Mayor and Merchants of the Staple of Callice revoketh certain particular Licences granted to the Merchants of New Castle upon Tyme for transporting of Staple VVare to other places than to Callice 44. The Commons require the King to help to pacifie the Schism of the Church which had of long time continued so as the same might be no charge to the Realm The Lords require the same The King answered the Bishops shall consider the same 45. On Thursday the tenth of March the Commons require that the Article touching the moderation made at the last Parliament concerning the Act of Provision may be examined for as much as the time was recorded otherwise than was agreed The King granteth thereunto by Protestation that the same should be no example And upon examination the Bishops and Lords affirmed the same to be duly done the which the King then called to remembrance 46. The same Thursday being the last day of the Parliament the Commons kneeling before the King beseech the King to pardon them if happily they should through ignorance offend The King granted 47. The Commons assemble unto Mass where the Archbishop read the Epistle and Gospell the King did the Sacrifice by promising to maintain the Churches Faith and they were come to say Ite missa est Deo gratias they offer their granted Subsidie aforesaid for which the King giveth them thanks and the Chancellor willeth them to depart 48. The print touching the converting or punishing of such as hold any erronious opinion Cap. 15. far swerveth from the Record and not onely in forme but much more in matter also to maintain tyranny then in the Record which note well And note that this was the first Statute and Butcherly Knife that the impeaching Prelates procured or had against the poor Preachers of Christ

The Bishop of Durham being Chancellor of England by the Dukes commandement declared the cause of the said Parliament and took for his Theam Deum timete Regem honorificate Upon which words he shewed how we ought to fear God viz. with a child-like fear quoniam qui timet Deum diligit eum tunc illuminabitur cor ejus And that the King ought to be honoured sith this realm had their longing viz. that the King of England might be King of France the which being brought to passe by the travel and Conquests of this Kings Father enforced the same according to this saying Omnis qui diligit eum qui genuit diligit eum qui natus est He further sheweth that the Lords of the Council appointed in the last Parliament for the governance of the realm and observation of peace during the Kings minority were assembled to the end they might by advice and assent of the Commons perfect the same wherefore he willed the Commons by their assembling to choose their Speaker and to present him to the said Duke the Kings Commissary 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 Friday the 22. of October the Commons presented before the Commissary and Lords Iohn Russell Esquire to be their Speaker who with the common protestation was allowed Where Iohn la Talbott of Furnivall being the Kings Lieutenant of Ireland had accused Iames Boteiler Earl of Ormond of certain treasons depending before Iohn Duke of Bedford and Constable of England in his Marshals Court the King to appease the same doth by assent of Parliament utterly abolish the said accusation and suits upon the same Note the Accusations are particularly recited The Commons doe send certain by name to the Duke of Gloucester for vouch safing to make them privy to the Treaty of the Scotish Ambassadour for the delivery and marriage of the Scotish King which they liked well The order that the Minter within the Tower shall keep the Exchange conteined in the last Parliament tit 35. is to continue at the Kings pleasure It is enacted at the petitions of the North Counties that a Coinage should be at York during the Kings pleasure and that all men doe bring in their gold there to be coyned which is not of full weight On Wednesday the 17th day of December the Chancellor by the Kings Commissary appointed and adjourned the Parliament from the same day unto the next after Saint Hillary then ensuing On the 18th day of February being the last day of the Parliament the Commons granted to the King for two years the subsidie of Poundage as in c. The names of such Bishops Lords and other persons as were appointed to be of the Kings Council All which persons took upon them to be Counsellors upon certain Articles for the Orders touching the Council far swarving from the Articles in the last Parliament tit 26. to 34. and much in derogation of the Protectors power Amongst all the Articles I find this not the worst that the Clerk of the Council should be sworn ever to preferr and to procure the poorest man his Bill and Answer And the Kings Sergeant for Council to take no money therefore Iohn Mortimer of Bishops Hatfield in the County of Hereford Knight being committed to the Tower for supposition of Treason done against H. 5. broak the Tower in the first year of this King for which breach he was indicted of Treason and thereupon the same Indictment by consent of Parliament was confirmed to be good and the same Iohn being after apprehended was at this Parliament brought against whom upon the same Indictment Judgement was given that he should be carried to the Tower drawn through London to Tibourne there to be hanged drawn and quartered his head to be set on London-bridge and his four quarters on the
Duke of Gloucester that was son to King E. 3. next the Lord of Darbie that was after King H. 4. and then the Earl of Darby the next to him the Earl of Warwick father to the now Earl Defendant and then afterwards the Earl Marshall father to the now Earl Item also King H. 4. kept a great Councell at Westminster where debate was moved between the Earles of Kent and Arundell for their places in Parliament and likewise between the Earl of Warwick and the Earl Marshall brother to the now Earl Marshall where it was determined that the Earl of Kent should have place above the Earl of Arundell and that the now Earl of Warwick above the then Earl Marshall and so they were both set personally in possession In a patent of King R. 2. made to Thomas Duke of Gloucester of Holdernes and Okeham in the Testees the Earl of Warwicks father was set before the Earl Marshalls father Item in a letter sent to the Pope by King R. 2. for the matter of provision the name and seal of the Earl of Warwick was set before the Earl Marshall Item though the Earl of Arundell be not of the bloud royall nor ever bare the Armes of this land yet he hath had place in Parliament alwayes above the Ancestors of the Earl Marshall without interruption Item he requireth the Duke of Gloucester to call to his remembrance the Parliament holden at Leicester 2. H. 5. where notwithstanding the noble service done by the Duke of Exeter then being Earl of Dorset in the Dutchy of Guienne who was of the bloud royall and Uncle to the King and bare the royall Armes of England and France yet neverthelesse the said Earl of Warwick had place above the said Marshall and the said Earl of Dorset Item where the Lord Stafford that now is is lineally descended from E. 3. by royall whole bloud and not demi sanguinis by his mother the Countesse of Stafford daughter of Thomas of Woodstock Duke of Gloucester yet the Earl of Warwick hath place above the Lord Stafford Item it was declared that E. 1. had issue by his second wife the French Kings sister Thomas of Brotherton and Edward the younger brother which Thomas the Lord Marshall is descended of and of Edmond the Lady Princesse and the Earles of Kent came of the younger and that their difference in Armes was further off then the Earl Marshalls yet they had place before the said Earl Marshall Item it was also declared that E. 1. had another wife named Ellinor daughter to Alphonso King of Spain by whom he had a daughter two yeares elder then her brother E. 2. which daughter was wedded to the Earl of Hereford by whom she had two sons and two daughters the one named Earl of Hereford and the other Earl of Northampton the elder daughter being wedded to Courtney afterwards Earl of Devonshire who by this meanes was lineally descended of the bloud royall and yet the Earl of Warwick had his place in Parliament beâ—ore him It was moved that where commandement was before given that the Earles should both forbear to sit in the Parliament house untill the title of both parties were by their Councell declared in writing there were then writings exhibited into the Court declaring each others titles Item it was alleged for the said Earl of Warwick that he ought to enjoy the possession of the place in Parliament till the said Earl Marshall had a Judgement for his right Item it was answered for the Earl Marshall that such possession had against Title of right which began but lately by commandement ought not to be affirmed nor put him to his action or out of possession for lack of Judgement Item it was desired by Walter Beauchamp for the Earl of Warwick that learned men might examine the matter and if they should find the same otherwise over ruled than the law would that the said commandement might be reformed and that they might declare for the Lord of Warwicks possession and suffer him to enjoy the same peaceably seeing that all exceptions given on the Earl Marshals part may not hurt the possession of the Earl of Warwick The writings of both sides being shewed it was desired for the Earl Marshall that forasmuch as in his opinion he had brought sufficient proof he might have Judgemenr and that the Earl of Warr. might be excluded from claiming or challenging the said place and that all matters declared for the Earl Marshall might be entred of record And for the better and more speedy determination of the said Controversy the said Iohn Earl Marshall caused to be shewed unto the Court of Parliament that R. 2. by his Letters Patents dated the 21. year of his reign created Thomas then Earl of Nottingham and Marshall of England Duke of Norfolk giving him also for the better sustentation of the said Title forty marks yearly to hold both the said title and stipend to him and â—is heirs males which said Thomas Duke had issue Thomas and Iohn now Earl Marshall which Thomas died without issue and so the said Iohn claimeth to be Duke of Norfolk as heir uâ—to his brother Thomas The said Earl Marshall made humble petition to the King and to the said Duke of Gloucester his beloved Uncle and the rest of the Lords that he might be so reputed and declared Duke in that Parliament saving alwayes the right of possession of him and his heirs of his body coming as Earles of Norâ—olk to his place in that high Court above his said Cousin the Earl of Warwick desiring all that all other matters by him and his Councell notified and declared might be entred of record The King upon consideration of the said Letters Patents and such other proofs as the said Earl Marshall had made and declared by the advise and consent of the Lords spirituall and temporall and the Commons of the realm c. caused it to be declared and with one assent accorded That the foresaid Iohn Earl Marshall as son of the aforesaid Thomas Duke and brother and heir of the said Thomas son of Thomas by vertue of the said Letters Patents and by succession should from thenceforth be held and reputed Duke of Norfolk and should use and enjoy the stile title name and honour of the Duke of Norfolk according to the tenor of the aforesaid Letters Patents which declaration c. accorded the said Lord Chancellor by authority from the King openly delivered whereupon the foresaid Iohn as Duke of Norfolk immediately did homage to the King which done the King commanded the said Duke to take his place amongst his equalls which he did most thankfully The Parliament holden at Westminster the last of April in the third
year of King Henry the Sixth AT the beginning of the Parliament before the King sitting in person in the chair of Estate in the painted Chamber there being the Lords and Commons the Bishop of Winchester Chancellor of England declared that the Kings will was that all Estates should enjoy their liberties and for his Theam he took these words Gloria honor pax omni operanti bonum the which he divided into three parts viz. bonum honestum as which consisted in due obeysance of the Subjectâ— bonum delâ—ctabile as which stood in giving good Counsell and bonum utile which was by free and willing sustentation or relieving the Prince and Commonwealth By the first God was most glorified by the second the Prince best honoured by the third the Subjects saâ—ety governed according to the saying of Luke Gloria in excelsis Deo in terra pax hominibus bona voluntas Glory is given to God by due obedience of the Subjects the Prince is honoured by sound Counsell the Subjects governed in peace by relieving the Prince wherein he affirmeth that Princes ought to be obeyed though they were evil according to the saying of Peter obedite praepositis for albeit they were not good yet for that they commanded many good things to be observed they ought to be obeyed and remembreth Sicut Princeps tenetur regere regaliter sic plebs obedire The second division touching sound Counsell he allegeth Sapient 12. Salus ubi multa consilia and therein shewing how the Elephant had three properties the one for that he wanted a gall the second â—or that he was inflexible and could not bow the third for that he was of a most sound and perfect memory the which properties by application he wished to be in all Counsellers First that wanting a gall they should thereby be free from all malice rancor and envy by being inflexible that they should worship no reward nor in Judgement respect any person of a ripe memory that they by remembring perils past might prevent dangers to come The third for relieving the King he proved that the same ought to be done with all readinesse of mind considering that God by the young Prince his chosen vessel had not only governed them in safety but also given to them honourable victories and great conquests all which ought to enforce them more willingly to offer than the same should readily be taken Wherefore he willeth the Commons by their assembling to choose their Speaker and the next day to present him 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 Wednesday the second of May the Commons presented before the King and Lords Sr. Tho. Nanton knight to be their Speaker whose excuse being refused he with his protestation was allowed A great debate arose upon the Claim of Iohn Earl Marshall against Richard Earl of Warr touching the higher place in the Parliament house both of which Earles were commanded not to come at the house till the matters were fully heard but that the Councell learned of either of them should be heard what they could say touching the same And for that the Lords should be Judges of the same the Duke of Gloucester being Protector and other the Bishops Lords and others of the lower house swore upon the Gospel that they would uprightly judge the case leaving all affection For the proving of the Earl Marshalls title Roger Hunt of his Councell learned exhibited to the Lords a Pedegree shewing that the said Earl Marshall came of the bloud royall and gave the Armes of England whereby he ought to be preferred Note the said Pedegree proveth the Earl Marshall to come of the bloud royall from E. 1. It farther sheweth the said Earl to be allyed in bloud to the King from Thomas Earl of Lancaster It also affirmeth the said Earl to be allied in bloud to the King by the line of the Earl of Arundell To all this Sr. Walter Beauchamp Knight being of the Councell learned of the Earl of Warr. answereth and by many authorities sheweth that Antiquitie hath had superioritie above the bloud royall and so enforced the title of the Earl of Warr. but chiefly he relyeth upon the possession of the Earl of Warwick Herein is to be noted that the affirmations answers and replications of both parties being very long contain many good reasons and sundry lines of Noble-men very delectable to be read The Councell for both these Earles were instant for Judgement in the end it was devised and the said Earl Marshall for pacifying of the same required that he might be restored to be Duke of Norfolk according to the Creation of Thomas his father as brother and heir to Thomas who died without issue son of the said Thomas his father the which for sundry considerations worthy the sight was granted On Friday the fifteenth day of May the Duke of Gloucester by the Kings Letters Patents there read proroged the Parliament from the same day unto the Thursday then ensuing Iohn Lord Talbot with other Lords there named were bound by recognizance in the Chancery that the said Iohn should keep the peace towards Hugh Wenlockward that he should appear at the next Parliament The Lords of the Parliament by name promised by their faiths to the Bishop of VVinchester that they will not hinder but further such assurance as shall be made to the said Bishop by the King for money to him lent The Commons by the assent of the Bishops and Lords grant to the King the Subsidie of wools for three years and Tonnage and Poundage for one year upon condition that Merchants Aliens should hardly be looked unto Touching the charge of Scotish hostages according to one Article of league it is enacted that the Wardens of the Marches shall not hereafter be impeached for attempting any hostage for the other but that upon their oathes they be discharged And further that they may take two or more hostages for one as of good will and no duty It is enacted that the quarrell and combat betwixt the Duke of Gloucester and Duke of Burgaine do in no case proceed but that the same by the Kings Letters Patents be committed to the old French King the Kings mother and to the regent of France and that the Duke of Burgain do deliver into indifferent hands the person of my Lord of Gloucester It is enacted that the Kings Councell shall have power to make assurances to the Bishop of Winchester and other of the

Proctor to the Commonalty of England then assembled or represented by their Knights or Burgessesâ— in the Commons House of Parliament or distinguished from the Lords and Barons like that Deed of intayl by Sir Iohn Tiptoft their Speaker in 8 H. 4. as Sir Robert Cotton imports and others would thence inferr which I shall irrefragably evidence 1. By the beginning close and subscription of this very Letter printed in the Additamenta of Matthew Paris It begins thus Sanctissimo Patri in Christo Alexandro c. COMMUNITAS COMITUM PROCERUM MAGNATUM ALIORUMQUE REGNI ANGLIAE cum subjectione debita pedum oscula beatorum And it is thus joyntly subscribed and sealed by 6. Earls and 5. other Great men Et Nos R. de Clare Gloverniae Herefordiaeâ— S. de Monteforti Legriae R. Bigod Mariscallus Angliae H. de Bohun Herefordiae Essexiae W. Albemarle J. de Placito Warwici Comites H. Bigod Justiciarius Angliae P. de Subaudia J. Filius Galfridi Jacobus de Audel Petrus de Monteforti VIâ—E TOTIUS COMMUNITATIS praesentibus Literis SIGILLA NOSTRA APPOSUIMUS IN TESTIMONIUM PRAEDIâ—TORUM The Whole COMMUNITY therefore in whose behalf or stead they signed and sealed this Letter was only the Communitas Comitum Procerum Magnatum aliorumque Regni Angliae or Whole Baronage of England mentioned in the beginning of it in whole names alone it was written not the meer Commons house or Commonalty of England either in or out of Parliament as contradistinct from the Lords And these 11. Earls Barons and Great men joyntly signed and sealed it Vice totius Communitatis as joynt Proctors to this whole Community of the Baronage of England not ten of them as Proxies to the Earls Nobles and Great men and Peter de Montfort the 11. as Speaker or Proctor to the Commons in or out of Parliament as is erroniously surmised 2ly It is most evident by the words of Mat. Paris who placeth this Letter in Anno 1458. or 41 H. 3. whereas Sir Robert Cotton and Rishanger referr it to Anno 1260. or 44 H. 3 Destinantur Nuncii solennes ad Dominum Papam ex parte Regni ET TOTIUS ANGLIAE UNIVERSITATE c. Causam autem Itineris eorum et SCRIPTUM A BARNAGIO TRANSCRIPTUM audire qui cupit in libro Additamentorum invenire praevalebit Which compared with his Istud detestabile factum Romano erat Pontifici PER BARONES significatum in this very Letter his Magnates Nobiles terrae c. And his Tale iniit Consilium UNIVERSITAS BARNAGII will undeniably manifest That the Barons and Universality of the Baronage only not the meer Commons of England writ and sent this Letter and were the tota Communitas mentioned and intended in it in whose behalf these 11 Earls and Grandees subscribed and sealed it not the UNIVERSITAS REGNI POPULARIS ETSI NON NOBILES whom Mat. Paris distinguisheth from them by this very expression in the same year and upon the same occasion who Pictavienses obsiderent et Castra eorum funditus dissiparent Wherefore neither the signing nor sealing of this Letter by them Vice totius Communitatis nor this Clause in it Etsi Dominus Rex et Magnates hoc vellent COMMUNITAS tamen ipsius ingressum in Angliam nullatenus sustinerent meant only of the Vulgar Rable or Uiversitas Regni popularis as Mat. Paris stiles them who were much inraged against him being the same in substance with that phrase in King Henry the first his Letter unto Pope Paschal not in but out of Parliament Et si ego quod absit in tanta me dejectione ponâ—rem Optimates vero et TOTUS ANGLIAE POPULUS ID NULLO MODO PATERETUR can be any convincing or probable evidence at all that this Bishop elect of Winchester was then judicially banished by the joint consent of the King Nobles and Commons in Parliament as is suggested he being forced to fly thence through fear of their arms alone not banished by their judicial sentence as they thus expresly inform the Pope in another Letter sent to him with the former to inhibit his return Maxime CUM IPSE A REGNO EXPULSUS NON EXTITERIT SED SPONTE CESSERIT non ausus exhibitionem Iustitiae quae singulis secundum Iuramenta Regis Procerum debebatur expectare Much lesse is it any proof that the Commons in that age had a Voice and consent in Parliament Iudgments of all Natures since they never had it in succeeding ages unlesse it were by way of Bill as the whole Commons House acknowledged in the Parliament of 1 H. 4. n. 79. and I have manifested at large in my Plea for the Lords no more than that they had then a Speaker or House of Commons which is clear by subsequent Parliaments in this Abridgement they had not till many years after 44 H. 3. and after the Parl. of 6 E. 3. 3ly This will most evidently appear by the Barons Letter sent to King Henry the third to Lewes Anno Dom. 1264. the 48 year of his reign from their Camp Barones alii fideles sui c. subscribed only by the Earl of Leicester and Gilbert de Clare ad Petitionem aliorum And by the Letter of Richard King of Romans Prince Edward the Kings eldest son caeterique Barones omnes Milites praedicto Regi Angliae constanter adhaerentes fide sincera opibus sent to the Barons in answer thereunto thus subscribed Rex Alemanniae Edwardus filius Regis nomine suo aliorum Regi adhaerentium Omnes nos contenti sumus praedictorum Dominorum sigillis In both which Letters the two Earls and the King of Romans and Prince Edward joyntly signed and sealed in the Name of all the Barons Knights and others of either party and not one of them as a Proctor or Speaker to the Commons and the other as Proxie to the Barons and Lords both Letters being writ from their Camp not Parliament and neither of them relating to the Commons House or Judicature in Parliament just like this Letter concerning Bishop Adomar Therefore no inference can be thence deduced to prove the Commons had either any House Speaker or Judicature in the Parliaments of 42 or 44 of Henry the third The first expresse writ I find of any Knights of Counties by name summoned to our Parliaments as Members is that of Claus. 49 H. 3. dors 10 11. requiring Sheriffs to summon 2. Knights out of every County to the Paâ—liament which was presently after the battel of Evesham the same year the Earl of Leicester was slain the Barons totally routed by Pr. Edward and King Henry rescued out of their hands when Sir Robert Cotton affirms and that most truly as I conjecture THESE VVRITS BEGAN The writs of Rot. Claus. 15. Joh. pars 2. m. 7. dorso Patents 8 H. 3. pars 3. m. 4. Dors Claus. 38 H 3. dors 13. which seem somewhat like a Summons of Knights
to Paâ—liament being conceived by some upon good grounds not to be a direct summons of any Commoners or Knights of Shirâ—s to Parliament as Members but in another kinde when as we find VVrits of Summons to Parliament directed to Bishops and the Temporal Lords and Barons before 49 H. 3. without any such VVrits for â—nâ—ghts or Burgesses In what place the Commons usually assembled at first is uncertain but most likely it was in the Chapter House of of the Abbot of Westminster as is clear by 50 E. 3. n. 8. and other records How unable and unwilling the Commons were at first of themselves to advise in maâ—ters of Peace or Warr referring themselves usually herein to the King and Lords alone and desiring a special Committee of Lords to advise and direct them in most things else and how they got a Speaker and House of their own at last in the dotage of King Edward the 3. and nonage of Richaâ—d the 2. and then proceeded by degrees to meddle with the greatest affairs of the State Court and Crown being set on by some ambitious Lords to promote their designes thereby you may observe throughout this Abridgement of which the Table will render you a more particular account What use the Lords made of the Commons and their Speakers to curb the King and his greatest Officers Minions Favourites you may here read at large in the Parliaments of 50 E. 3. of 1 3 5 7 10 11 R. 2. 1 H. 4.28 33 38 39 H. 6. And how King Rich. 2. made use of them to suppresse his Domineering Lords and King Edward the 4. used them as his Instruments to curb suppress both King Hen. the 6. and the Lords that were opposite to him you may observe in the Parliaments of 21 R. 2 33 39 H. 6. 1 Ed. 4. especially n. 38 39. in his Speech there made unto the Commons By whose assistance he was restored to the Crown and soon after to all the Lands and Revenues alienated from it by Acts of Resumption Whereupon he promised the Commons in Parliament with his own mouth To live of his own without charging them and left off all gathering of money and Impositions on them as the only thing which withdraws the hearts of the English from their Prince receiving onely Tonnage and Poundage and but some 3. or 4. Disms and Quindisms of small value which they freely granted him towards his wars during all his 23 years reign A president worthy present and future imitation for the oppressed peoples ease especially after so many yeares uncessant heavy Taxes of all sorts extorted from them rather for private ends than the publike Interest and Welfare of the Kingdom What other particulars of Note touching the Commons Lords or Parliament affairs occurr in this Abridgement the Table will more punctually inform the Reader I shall only further observe that in all the Parliaments of King Ed. 3. R. 2. H. 4 5 6. Ed. 4 and R. 3. here abridged the Commons House never claimed nor exercised any such Jurisdiction as hath been usurped by it of late years in some particulars of moment 1. They never presumed nor pretended to make print or publish any Act Ordinance Order whatsoever relating to the people Kingdom or own Members without the Kings and Lords precedent approbation and concurrence 2. They never attempted to impose any Tax Tallage Charge Impost Excise or Duty whatsoever on the people without the Lords and Kings assent 3. They never adventured to appoint any special Committees or Sub Committees to hear examine determine any particular businesse or complaint before without any Report thereof to the whole House of Commons nor without the privity and assent of the House of Lords by way of transmission or impeachment to their Superiour Authority and Judicature An intollerable Grievance of puny times 4. They never attached fined imprisoned or censured any Person by their own authority without the Lords as they have done hundreds of late years 5. They never presumed to seclude or secure any of their own Members nor yet finally to judge of the Legality or Illegality of their Elections nor of the breach of their Privileges by imprisonment or otherwise of which the King and Lords were antiently sole Iudges as is evident by 16 R. 2. n. 6. 12 R. 2. n. 23. 1 H. 4. n. 79. 4 H. 4. n. 19 20. 5 H. 4. n. 71.78 c. 5. 8 H. 4. 13.

They were always Petitioners to the King Lords for publike Laws Grievances and private Persons but very seldom petitioned unto upon any occasion as you may observe throughout this Abridgment some of the first Petitions to them being those of the Upholsters and Merchant Adventurers of London whereon Acts were made mentioned in the printed Statutes of 11 H. 7. c. 19. 12 H. 7. â— 6. since the Parliaments here abbreviated 7. Though they had the free Election of their Speakers granted them yet they alwayes of course presented their Speakers to the King and Lords at their appointed time who had power to allow of them and their excuses or to disallow and discharge them when elected yea to enjoyn them to elect present another Speaker when the former through sicknes imprisonment or other impediment was disabled or discharged as is evident by 1 H. 4. n. 62 63 64 1 H. 5. n. 9 10 11.15 H. 6. n. 10.27 28 H. 6. n. 6 7. 32 H. 6. n. 6.25 26 27 28 29. and Cookes 4 Instit. p. 8. 8. They alwayes stood bare-headed when they repaired to the Lords House upon the first day of the Parliament Conferences Passing of Bils Messages or any other Occasions when as the Lords sate covered 8 R. 2. n. 2. which custome continued so long as the Lords House sate even till 1648. 9. They never did nor could of right administer an Oath to Witnesses or others examined by the whole House or Committees as the Lords House usually did 7 R. 2. n. 14. Plac. Coron 1 H. 4. n. 10. They had no Vote Iudicature in Writs of Error brought in Parliam returnable only before and tryed in and by the Lords House alone nor yet in Criminall Causes upon Impeachments wherein the Lords alone were Iudges in cases both of Peers and Commoners as I have proved at large in my Plea for the Lords Which the Commons themselves acknowledged 1 H. 7. n. 79. and you may here observe throughout this Abridgement To close up this Preface I dare affirm that the several Treatises of our English Parliaments formerly published by Sir Tho. Smith Iohn Vowel Hotinshed Statham Fitzherbert Brook Mr. Richard Crompton Mr Cambden Doctor Cowel Minshew and Sir Edward Cook with

Devereux Symoni de Burleigh Custodi Quinque Portuum The PARLIAMENT holden at WESTMINSTER the Friday next after the Feast of St. LUKE in the ninth year of the raign of King RICHARD the 2. THe same Friday for that sundry of the Nobles were not come nor the Sheriffs returned their Writs the Parliament by the Kings commandement was adjourned untill the next day and the same next day it was adjourned untill the Munday then ensuing On the which Munday Michael de la Poole Earl of Suffolk and Chancellor of England in the presence of the King Lords and Commons pronounced the cause of the Parliament to be how the State of the Realm being assaulted on every side with most mortall enemies might be defended and preserved the Defence he shewed to consist in four points whereof two concerned outward or forrain affairs and two inward or affairs within the Realm The one of the inward affairs was touching the Staple the other concerning Money or Coyn. The first of forrain affairs was what was to be attempted for defence The second how the same War might be nourished and maintained Touching the Staple he thought best that the same were planted within the Realm considering that the Burgesses of Callice and other towns beyond the Seas grew very rich thereby and good towns at home within the Realm were much decayed And so much for the Common profit Touching the King he affirmed that the Subsidie of Wools yeelded more to the King when the Staple was kept in England by 1000. marks yearly than it did now being holden beyond the Seas Touching the Coyn he sheweth that weighing how all Nations much thirsted thereafter and therefore conveyed much over wherefore the best was to raise them by raising the value That the Realm was best defended by pursuing the enemy by sharpe War and he perswaded by many reasons that it was better to seek than to be sought and that a Subsidie was out of necessity to be granted which was as manifest as being offered to the King would be plausible about all which he willed them to consult Receivers of Petitions for England Ireland Wales and Scotland Receivers of Petitions for Gascoygn and other places beyond the Seas and of the Isls. Tryars of Petitions for England c. as above Tryars of Petitions for Gascoyne c. as above The Lords and Commons granted to the King a Fifteen and half a Fifteen towards the voyage of Iohn King Castell and Portugall Duke of Lancaster and for the safe keeping of the Sea and Defence of the Marches The voyage of the same King and Duke was appointed into Spain and agreed by Parliament upon certain considerations The last being so as no part of the said Subsidie was
Estate in that behalf as the Lords of the Parliament would award whereupon the King said openly in the Parliament that he thought that the said Duke was nothing faultie and therefore held him excused In the Parliament all the Lords as well Spirituall as Temporal being present claimed their Liberties and Franchises viz. that all weightie matters in the same Parliament which should be after moved touching the Peeres of the Land ought to be determined and judged and discussed by the course of the Parliament and not by the Civill Law nor yet by the Common Laws of the Land used in other more Courts of the Realm the which clayme and liberties the King most willingly allowed and granted thereto in full Parliament In full Parliament also the 5. Lords Appellants viz. Tho. Duke of Gloucester Henry Earl of Darby Rich. Earl of Arundell Tho. Earl of Worcester and Thomas Earl Marshall made their open protestations that whatsoever they attempted touching their Appeal and Suit in this Parliament or before they and their partakers did the same chiefly to the honour of God the ayde and safetie of the King the Realm and their own Lives In this Parliament the Arch-Bishop of Canterbury made openly solemne protestation for himself and the whole Clergie of his Province entred by word The effect whereof was that albeit he might lawfully be present at all their Parliaments yet for that in this Parliament matters of Treason were to be intreated off whereat by the Canonical Law they might not be present they therefore absented themselves saving their liberties therein otherwise The like protestations did the Bishops of Durham and Carlile make On Tusâ—day the 10 th of March being the 26 th day of this Parliament the Lords and Commons granted to the King one Half Desme and half Fifteenth for the defence of the Sea so as the same be thereon only imployed and so as the same be not made or taken for an example being given before the end of the Parliament whereby any Subsidy should be hereafter demanded before the end of the Parliament On Friday the 20 th of March and the 36 th day of the Parliament the Lords and Commons granted to the King in defence of the Realm and safetie of Merchandize 3 s. of every Tun of Wine and 12 d. of every pound of Merchandize except of Staple Ware and also they granted to the King the Subsidy of Staple Ware The same day all the Lords Bishops and Commons were openly sworne in Parliament upon the Cross of Canterbury that they should see the Peace kept that they should live and dy in the quarrell and defence of the bodies of the 5. Lords named Tit. 8. if any thing were against them attempted saving their allegiance to the King and their due obedience to his Prerogative and Laws The same Friday for that Easter approached the Parliament by Common assent of the whole estates was continued from the said Friday untill Monday next after the Quindene of Easter then ensuing and thereupon Writs were made to all the Lords summoned to the Parliament to be then there On Monday the same Parliament revived his course according to the request of the Lords and Commons On Tuseday the 2. day of Iune being the 30 th of that Parliament the Lords and Commons granted to the King in defence of the Realm one Subsidy of Wooll Skins and Wooll-fells carryed forth of the Realm viz. of every sack of Wooll over and above the old custome of 6 s. 8 d. and 44 s. 4 d. of Denizens and of Strangers 46 s. 8 d. of every Last of skins over the custome of one Mark 4 l. 6 s. 8 d. of Denizens 4 l. 13 s. 4 d. of Strangers of every CC Wooll-fells over the old custome of 6 s. 8 d. of Aliens for one whole year upon condition that the said Lords named in Tit. 8. may receive the c. in manner of this grant and Subsidy untill they have levyed the 20000 l. towards their charges layed out for the honour and safety of the King and of the Realm They also grant unto the King for one whole year as is contained before in Tit 1.

Lords Appellants Tit. 8. granted to ayde Ieffrey Martin Cleark of the Crown and at the request of the Commons granted to ayde Iohn de Scardeburgh Petitions of the Commons with their Answers THat the Parliament may be holden in the Quindena of Michaelmas then ensuing The King will be advised That no person do intermeddle about the Kings person or affairs of the Realm other than those that be appointed by those of the Parliament or other than such as be assigned by the Lords of the continuall Councell That those Lords may remove all persons in the Kings Houshold and place others as they think that those Lords be sworn as in the oath there is contained To the first the King granteth to the second upon proof of any ones unworthiness about his person and declaration to him made he shall be removed and others placed The effect of the aforesaid Oath was that he should by no means suffer any Judgment Ordinance or Statute made in this Parliament to be repealed at any time to come that he should see the Laws observed and the Peace kept That no hereditaments or other profits then escheated to the King be granted to any during the Wars and that no Person do attempt to crave any of the same but that the same be imployed to the Kings best profit The King granteth except Offices and Bayliwicks and such gifts as he hath made in the Parliament so as
all men that do pretend any title of any thing forfeited do therefore sue to the Councell That the Queen do pay xiii l. to the Kings Houshold as the late Queen that dyed did or otherwise according to

Chancellor of the choice of their Speaker The fourth day of the Parliament the Commons presented unto the King Iohn Green Esquire to be their Speaker whose excuse being refused he with the common protestation was allowed The print touching the revocation of the Parliament holden at Coventree cap. 1. agreeth with the record Walter Clark Burgesse of Chippingham in Wilts being committed to the Fleet for sundry condemnations and outlawed upon some of them as well at the Kings sute as otherwise is discharged and set at liberty out of the Fleet. The sixteenth day of October the Councell of the Duke of York exhibited to the Lords in full Parliament a writing touching the right and claim of Richard Duke of York to the Crown of England and Lordship of Ireland the which Lords upon consultation willed it to be read amongst them but not to be answered without the King The title deriveth the pedegree from H. 3. to Edw. 3. and proving himself of the right line from Lyonell Duke of Clarence the third son of E. 3. and next sheweth himself to be indubitate heir of the said Crown before any of the line of Iohn of Gaunt the fourth son of E. 3. The Lords upon large consultation declared this title to the King who willed them to call the Justices Sergeants and Attorney to answer the same They so being called utterly refused to answer the same and order taken that every Lord might therein franckly utter his conceipt without any impeachment unto them In the end there was objected against the Dukes title as followeth First the Oathes of the Lords made to the King and namely of the Duke Secondly the Acts of Parliament sunderly made against the title of the Duke Thirdly sundry Acts of Intayl made of the Crown of England Fourthly that the Duke pretending title from Lyonel Duke of Clarence should rather bear his Arms than of Edmond of Langley Duke of York Item that at what time as H. 4. took upon him the Crown of England he took the same as right heir to * H. 3. and not as Conqueror The answer of Richard Plantaginet commonly called the Duke of York to the objections aforesaid First that no Oath being the Law of man ought to be performed when the same tendeth to suppression of truth and right which is against the Law of God To the second and third he knoweth no other Acts than one Act in Anno 1 H. 4. touching a general tayl made by him a wrong-doer for if he had any right to the same he neither needed nor would have made any such intail To the fourth he justly might have bore the Arms of the Duke of Clarence and of England only he forbore the same for a time as he did his claim to the Crown The fifth being a manifest and approved untruth was only a Cloak to shaddow the violent usurpation of Henry of Derby After this the Lords devised this order that the King should enjoy the Crown of England during his life and the Duke and his heirs to succeed after him and appointed that the Chancellor should declare this to the King Whereupon the Yorksâ—pedegree â—pedegree and title was again repeated and the King assented that an accord between them should be made the which was devised in form following First that the King should during his life enjoy the Crown and preheminence of the Realm of England That the said Duke the Earl of March and Edward Earl of Rutland his Sonnes should be sworn by no means to shorten the dayes or impair the preheminence of the said King during his life That the said Duke shall be from thenceforth reputed and instiled to be the very Heir apparent to the Crown aforesaid and shall enjoy the same after the death or resignation of the said King That the same Duke shall have Hereditaments allotted to the clear yearly value of 10000 Marks viz. 5000 Marks for himself 35000 Marks for the Earl of March and 1500 Marks of the Earl of Rutland That the compassing of the death of the said Duke shall be treason That all the Bishops and Lords in full Parliament shall swear to the said Duke and to his Heires in form aforesaid That the said Duke and his two Sons shall swear to defend the Lords for this agreement The King by assent of the Lords agreeth to all the Ordinances aforesaid of his free motion The King by the assent aforesaid utterly repealeth the said Statute of Intayl made Anno 1. H. 4. so alwayes as hereafter there be no better title proved for the defeating of this title and Act. After all this in the 〈◊〉 of Aâ—hallâ—es the said Duke and the two Earls his Sons came into the Parliament Chamber before the King and Lords and there promised and sware to perform the accord aforesaid with protestation if the King for his part duly observed the same the which the King then promised to doe The which protestation the said Duke and Earls required to be enrolled The King by his Letters Patents assigneth to the said Duke sundry Countries and other Hereditaments in Wales and elsewhere to the yearly value of 10000 Markes as is aforesaid Where sundry provisions are and namely for the Dutchy of Lancaster all which are confirmed by whole assent of Parliament An Act for publishing of the Duke of York to be rightfull Heir to the Crown and power given him to ride through the whole Realm for suppressing of all Rebellions and Insurrections wherein commandement is given to all Sheriffs Officers and Subjects to obey him as the King with certain provisions Whereas such Hereditaments of the Dutchy of Lancaster as the King had put in Feoffment to the use of his will there was appointed one Chief Steward and Chancellor one General Receivor and Attorney General and Auditors with fees accordingly The King by assent of Parliament revoketh all the said Offices and Fees of the same grant so all the said premisses in Feoffment shall be under the rule and government of such Chancellors and other Officers as were and had the same before the said Feoffment made It is enacted that all the revenues of the Dutchy of Lancaster as well of Land and Feoffment as otherwise shall be received by the Receiver General of the said Dutchy for two years and by him payed over to the Treasurer of England and touching weighty affairs of the Realm wherein are contained principal provisions for Foreiners and Officers of the said Dutchie All the Conveyances and Feoffments in use of all the Hereditaments contained in 38 H. 6. tit 28. are rehearsed enacted that all and singular the premisses shall go only to the performance of the Kings will and not
