HONI SOIT QVI MAL Y PENSE   royal blazon or coat of arms  
WHEREAS divers Grants have formerly been made, aswell from his Majesty as his Progenitors, under the great Seal of England, unto sundry Bodies Politic and Corporate; and unto private persons, of Fairs, Marts, & Markets; to be kept within several Towns within his majesties Dominions of England and Wales, for the benefit of his Subjects in general.  
His Majesty being lately informed, that sundry of the said Fairs, Marts, & Markets; through the improvidence of the first Procurers; or by other accidents, are found inconveniently appointed for the days of the week, and times and seasons of the year: rather to the subjects prejudice then benefit.  
His Majesty therefore (nothing more desiring, than the ease, benefit and contentment of his Subjects, in case of this nature, so much concerning the public Commerce in general) hath been sithence graciously pleased to grant his Commission, under his great Seal of England, directed to some of his learned Council, and others whose names are here under subscribed: Giving them thereby authority to compound & agree for reasonable fines, with all & every person and persons; Bodies Politic and Corporate, and others holding any Fairs, Marts, or Markets by grant or prescription from his Majesty or any his Predecessors, for altering, transposing, changing, & accommodating such Fairs, Marts, or Markets, to such days of the week and times of the year as might become most commodious and beneficial for his subjects, without special suit to be made therefore.  
These are therefore to give notice unto all such as shall be desirous to alter, transpose, or change their Fairs Marts, and Markets to more convenient days, times and seasons, by new grants from his Majesty then formerly they have been. That they repair unto the house of Mistress Peirce in Chancery Lane near unto the Subpena Office, where one of the Commissioners will attend, that they may be reasonably dealt withal, according to the tenor of his majesties gracious Commission in that behalf made.
