To the Ingenuous Readers, especicially those of the Long Robe, and more Noble or Generous English Extraction.  
THere are 5. grand Defects of very public concernment, highly tending if not to the dishonour, yet certainly to the great disservice, prejudice of our Kingdom, Parliaments, great Officers of State, Nobility, Gentry, Nation, and more especially of the Professors and Profession of the municipal Laws, which I have for many years last passed, not only much admired at, and exceedingly deplored, but also used my best endeavours to get supplied, so far as there was ●ny probability to effect it.  
The 1. is the irreparable loss of all the Parliament ●olls during the Reigns of our antient●●t Kings, from William the 1. till 5 E. 2. ● the first Roll of that kind now extant) and of many other of those Rolls since, during the Reigns of Edw. 2. and 3. with the not publishing in Print those Parliamentary Rolls and Records yet extant by public Order, for the benefit of Posterity, to prevent their suppression, destruction, Embezelling by fire, war, casualties, t●e negligence, or present malice of some jesuitical Furies, or illiterate Animals, instigated thereunto by Hugh Peter's his misintituled Pamphlet, Good work for a good Magistrate, printed 1651. p. 96. Where after his proposal of a short new Model for the Law, he subjoins, This being done, I● IS VERY ADVISABLE TO BURN ALL THE OLD RECORDS, YEA EVEN THOSE IN THE TOWER, THE MONUMENTS OF TYRANNY: Which desperate bedlam advise of his, I have 
a The 2. p●rt of a short Demurrer to the lews long discontinued Remitter into England, p. 136, etc.  elsewhere at large refuted, as most pernicious to the public, and to all Corporations and Landed men.  
The 2. is the great want of an Exact Collection out of the Clause, Parliament, and Statu'e Rolls, of all Statutes, Ordinances and Acts of Parliament made before the use of Printing them immediately after the Parliaments conclusion, or during their Sessions, came in fashion: all our Statutes at large, and the Abridgements of them, (even Ferdinando Pultons of Lincoln's Inn Esq. the best & most refined) having sundry 
b See the Exact Abridgement of the Records in the Tower, and my Table there, to Title Statutes.  Spurious Impostures printed in them, under the Titles of Acts, Statutes, and Ordinances of Parliament, which in verity are neither of them, but only particular Writs or Instuctions of the King to the justices and other Officers by advice of his Coun●l out of Parliament: Such are the Statutes, De circumspect agatis, said to be made in 13. E. 1. (resolved to be no Statute, but made by the Prelates alone. M. 19 E. 3. Fitz. Jur. 28.) The Statutes of Protections, Champerty, and Conspirators, in 33 E. 1. De conjunctim feoffatis, in 34 E. 1. Ne rector prosternat arbores in caemiterio, in 35 E. 1. The Statute for Knights, 1 E. 2. of Gavelet, 10 E. 2. with sundry others, as the very form, words, & penning of them demonstrate, being transcribed only out of the Clause or Patents not Parliament or Statute Rolls. Besides these there are some forged Acts and Statutes printed in these Statute Books not extant in the Statute Rolls that remain entire: yea, there are sundry misprisions in printed Statutes, varying both in form & substance from the Statute Rolls wherein they are recorded, omitting some material words and clauses, adding and altering others; most of the publishers of our Statutes taking them upon mere trust, as they found them transcribed by others, but never examining them by the Statute Rolls & Original Records, as is most apparent by their 
c See the fi●st part of my short Demurrer to the jews long discontinued Remitter into England, p. 36, 37, 49. 53, 54, etc.  mistakes of the very times and dates of some Statutes, by their printing others of them without any date, as 
d See Pultons' Statutes at large, Lond. 1618. p. 115. Rastals calendar of Statutes in the end of his Abridgement; and Tottles Magna Char●ta, out of which they transcribed them.  made during the reign of King H. 3. Ed. the 1. or 2. BUTUNCERTAIN WHEN, ORIN WHICH OF THEIR TIMES, & by the manifold variances between their Printed Books, and the Statute Rolls, of which I have given you a particular account in my Table to the E●act. Abridgement of the Records in the Tower; the Compiler whereof was mistaken in this, That the Statute of 2 R. 2. c. 5. touching tellers of News (or Lies) of Noblemen, or Counsellors, is not in the Record, nor any mention thereof; it being recorded at large in French in the Statute Roll of the first Parliament that year, wherein it is printed, though not in the second, as I can attest upon my own view of the Statute Roll itself. Besides these Impostures, and Variances, there are many useful Acts in the Parliament and Clause Rolls totally omitted out of all our Printed Statute-Books, some whereof I have heretofore published in my Irenarches Redivivus.  
The 3. is the Grand deplorable Deficiency of such an Exact Chronological History of all the Great Councils, Synods, Parliaments of England, with their several Canons, Acts, Ordinances, Proceedings, as I have formerly mentioned in the Epistle to my Plea for the Lords, my Preface to an Exact Abridgement of the Records in the Tower; and in a printed Title three year since, by which I endeavoured to promote it; which would supply all the three precedent Defects.  
The 4. is the great lack of diligent faithful Collections and Publications of all the choicest Records, Proclamations, Writs, Letters, Charters, Patents, Commissions, etc. in the Tower, or elsewhere, which concern the Liberties and Properties of the Subject; The just ancient Duties, Customs, Revenues, Jurisdictions of the Kings and Crown of England in times of War and peace; the Coin, Merchandise, Manufactures, Trade, Government, Navy, Forts, Militia of England and Ireland; and the Negotiations, Leagues, Treaties with foreign States: or at leastwise the want of an Exact Table, Repertory to them, whereby they might be readily found out, and made u●e of upon all emergent occasions.  
The 5. is a Complete Register or Calendar of all Parliamentary Writs extant in our Records, which those who have formerly written Discourses touching our English Parliaments, were either totally ignorant of, or not well acquainted with, or else took no care or pains at all to communicate to others, though the very foundations of all our Parliaments and their proceedings; The omission or ignorance whereof hath made most of their Treatises of this subject very imperfect, unsatisfactory, and full of gross misprisions, which pass for current Truths.  
It seemed very strange and monstrous to me, that none of our Kings, Parliaments, Great Officers of State, Nobles, but especially none of our reverend judges, learned Lawye●s, nor any of the M●sters of the Rolls (to whose beneficial Office, care, diligence, it most properly appertained) in so large a tract of time since Printing first grew common, have not hitherto put to their own helping hands, nor encouraged others by Honorary Salaries, to supply these deplorable, prejudicial Defects, (especially the 3. first) which so much concern the public Government, Justice, Honour, welfare, Laws, Interest of the whole English Nation; when as foreign Kings Parliaments, Statesmen, Lawyers, Advocates (especially in France, Spain, Germany, Denmark) have been very diligent and laborious in later ages, in searching out, transcribing, publishing to posterity all the Antiquities, Records, Councils, Parliaments, Laws, Edicts, Ordinances, Histories, Transactions of th●ir Predecessors, and encouraged their learnedest Scholars by great Offices, Honours, Salaries, and bountiful rewards, to collections and publications of this Nature, to their eternal honour. Whereupon I endeavoured the last long Parliament by an Epistle to the Lords to excite them to contribute their best assistance towards the speedy Publication of all our Parliamentary Rolls and Records, proffering my best endeavours to promote it; but I neither then nor since received the least encouragement from them or others towards this beneficial public undertaking, from which soon after I was both discouraged and disabled by near 3. years close Imprisonment in 3. remote Castles, under armed, strictest guards by Mr. john bradshaw's and his Whitehall Associates warrant, without any accusation, hearing, or particular cause either then or since expressed, of purpose to debarr me from publishing any thing of this Nature, or against their New Tyrannical usurpations, transcending all in former ages. After my enlargement from these 3. years expensive, as well as tedious restraints, (superadded to my former Imprisonments and Losses under the Prelates and Army-Officers,) I endeavoured to revive this Heroic work, and to encourage all publike-Spirited Noblemen, Gentlemen, Lawyers to promote it; both by the publication of many unknown rare Records, in the second Part of my Demurrer to the jews long discontinued Remitter into England; and Discoveries therein of the usefulness and excellency of our Records in general, and of those relating to our Parliaments, Laws, Liberties, Properties in particular: Since which, by a printed Paper, I proposed a way, how, in what manner, and by what time this useful Design might probably be effected with no loss at all, but certain gain to those who should contribute only 10 〈◊〉 a piece towards it, for a year or two at most, and should then certainly receive their principal again, together with Books in the interval amounting to triple the interest; which, though some of my friends to whom I communicated these papers, highly approved of, seeming forwards to contribute towards it, yet I found such a general lukewar●nness, or rather absolute coldness (in others) really to advance it, as caused me totally to desist from any further prosecution thereof; Whereupon to supply those defects in some degree as much as in me lay, I did with no little pains and cost upon my own private account alone, (without the least assistance, contribution from any others) collect, compile, print and publish to the world, in the 3. First Parts of my Seasonable Historical Vindication, and Chronological Collection of the good old Fundamental Liberties, Rights, Franchises, Laws 〈◊〉 all English Freemen; an Exquisite Epitome of all the Parliamentary Councils, Synods, and State-assemblies held within our Realms upon several Occasions, extant in our Historians, from the Britons first arrival therein, till the Coronation of King William the first Anno 1066. containing the space of 2390. years. Which though very useful, seasonable, profitable, containing sundry rarities in them; were looked upon by most men with contempt, like old Almanacs, Clothes or Fashions quite out of d●te; whence most of them lie moulding in Warehouses for want of sale. After which in pursuit of these beginnings; I freely contributed my labours, to the publishing of A●●xact Abridgement of the Parliament Rolls and Records in the Tower of London; from King Edward the 2. till 1 R. 3. rectifying sundry mistakes, supplying divers defects therein, adorning it with a necessary Preface, useful Tables and Marginal Notes, without which it had been in a manner altogether useless▪ Since which, I much enlarged and reprinted ●pon my own Account alone (for want of assistance by others) my Plea for the Lords and House of Peers; Wherein I have communicated to the world out of Records and Histories, more Precedents, knowledge, touching the Judicature, Jurisdiction and Proceedings of our Great Councils and Parliaments in former ages, and more fully vindicated the just, ancient Privilege and Hereditary right of the Lords and Barons of this Realm, to sit, vote, judge in all our English Parliaments, than any others have done in former ages, without the least encouragement, aid, or retribution from any of their Lordships, notwithstanding my manifold sufferings by, from, and under some of them and their ancestors heretofore both in person and estate, without the smallest voted recompense.  
These last publications, together with my Sovereign Power of Parliaments and Kingdoms, my Historical Collection of the Great Councils and Parliaments of England; and new published Argument of the Case of the Lord Magwire, having in some measure (though not so fully as I desire) supplied the 4. first premised De●ects, I have endeavoured by this presents Brief Regist●●, 〈◊〉 and Survey of the several 〈…〉, (the only Basis whereon Parliaments are founded, by which they are supported, directed, as well as convened) and by my useful Observations on them, more completely to supply the 5. de●ect, than any of the former, so far as my present leisure and ability will extend, without supplies from others; wherein I have with no little pains and diligence, given you a most exact and faithful Account of all the Writs of Summons to Parliaments, Great Councils, and most Convocations in England, extant in the Clause Rolls and Records of the Tower, from the 5. year of King john, till the 23. of Edward the 4th, that I have hitherto met with upon my best search after them, digested into several Sections in a Chronological method, with useful Observations on them; Wherein you have a compendious, yet full and satisfactory Account of all the several Forms and Varieties of writs of Summons during all this tract of time issued to Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors, Masters of Religious Orders, and all Spiritual Lords; to the Prince of Wales, Foreign Kings, Dukes, Earls, Marquesses, Viscount's, Barons, Temporal Lords and Great men; to the King's Council, Judges and other Assistants to the House of Lords; the Sheriffs of Counties, and particular Corporations made Counties, for electing Knights, Citizens and Burgesses to serve in Parliament, and to the Constable of Dover Castle, Warden of the Cinque-ports, and Ports themselves for electing Barons of those Ports; with the particular Rolls, membranaes, dorses, wherein every of these summons are recorded: Together with a general Account in gross summ●, how many Bishops, Abbots, Priors, Earls, Barons, Great men, and Assistants of the King's Council were summoned to every of these Parliaments and Great Councils, & 4 most useful, accurate, short Alphabetical & Chronological ●ables, inserted into my Observations on the 3. first Sections of these Different writs: 1. Of the Names of all the Abbots, Priors, Masters of Religious Orders, and other Clergymen (except Bishops) summoned to any Parliament or Great Council from 49 H. 3. till 23 E. 4. with the years, rolls, dorses in each King's reign, wherein you shall find them summoned, and how oft any of them were summoned, and consequently when omitted out of the lists of summons. 2ly. Of the Names of all the Dukes, Earls, Marquesses, and Princes of Wales. 3ly. Of all the Temporal Viscounts, Lords, Barons, Peers, and Great men. 4ly. Of all the King's Council, Judges, Justices, and other Great Officers summoned as Assistants to the Lords, in every Parliament and Great Council held in England from 49 H. 3. to 23 E. 4. with the particular Roll, year, dorse in every King's reign, wherein you may find their names and summons entered, and when and how oft any of them or their posterity were thus summoned. Which Tables, as they were very painful and troublesome to me exactly to collect, being enforced to transcribe most of them three times over, before I could digest them into that form as here you find them, consisting of very many figures (which I examined near five times over, to prevent mistakes in any of them) so being thus completed, will be the most useful and delightful Calendar to all Antiquaries, Heralds, Law●ers, Noblemen, Gentlemen and others delighting in Antiquities, or Pedigrees, ever yet communicated to the English Nation; rectifying all those mistakes in names, & supplying those manifold defects in my Table of this nature to the Exact Abridgement of the Records in the Tower. If any Noblemen. Lawyers, Gentlemen, or others, would find out and know in a moment, when or how often, or in what Roll and dorse any of their Ancestors, Family, Name, were summoned to any Parliament or Great Council; or when or how often any Abbot or Prior (whose lands they or their Clients now enjoy) were summoned to Parliaments, or of what Order they were, these Tables, compared with the printed Lists before them, will presently resolve them, better than all the Tables and Kalendars to the Records in the Tower, which are very defective, and if they have cause to make use of the Records upon any occasion, these Tables will punctually direct them both to the Number Roll and Dorse too wherein they are recorded, without further search: So as I may conclude them to be greatly beneficial, as well to the Keepers of those Records, as to all those who shall have future occasion to make use of them in any kind.  
For the extraordinary writs of summons and others here published at large, I dare aver, that most of the Nobility, Gentry, Lawyers, and Parliament men of the English Nation▪ never so much as once saw, or heard of most of them before this publication; and those few Antiquaries, Lawyers, Gentlemen, who have gottenavy transcripts and Collections of the writs of summons in the Tower, shall meet with many memorable rare writs in this Abridgement, which are totally omitted out of their Folio Volumes, collected to their hands by others; which I have here supplied by my own industry, and likewise digested into method: all those large Coll●ctions of writs which I have yet seen, being both defective, confused, fraught with a tedious repetition of those names of Abbots, Priors, Dukes, Earls, Lords, Barons, which I have contracted into four short Tables in an orderly method. So as I may justly style this Register, Calendar and Survey, a rich Cabinet, and Compendious Treasury of the chiefest, and most precious Parliamentary jewels, Rarities, Records, ever yet presented to the world in print.  
As for my Observations on, and Collections from these writs, I dare affirm without vainglory, they are for the most part such, as were never yet known nor communicated to the world; and will be of excellent use, not only for the searching, but understanding of Records, and of the true constitution, proceedings, Privileges, Affairs, Ends of the Great Councils and Parliaments of England, and duties of their respective Members; wherein I have discovered, refuted many oversights and mistakes in Sir Edward Cook, and other pretended Antiquaries, who have written of our English Parliaments, and given clearer evidences of the original, beginning, use of the name Parliament in England; of the Authority, Power, use of the King's Council, judges in Parliaments; of the King's general writs of Summons to Temporal as well as Spiritual persons who held not by Barony, not making themselves, nor their Successors, nor posterities, Lords or Barons, and of sundry other material particulars, relating to the Freedom, Fullness, Summons, Affairs & Proceedings of our Parliaments, than any hitherto have done; out of an unfeigned desire of communicating more knowledge to the present & succeeding Generations, touching our Parliaments, and their affairs, than former times have been publicly acquainted with, that thereby I might restore our Parliaments to their primitive institution, use, splendour, freedom, Honour, that so the● may be made medicinal Restoratives, Blessing not Grievances, or Diseases to our 〈◊〉 Church and State, or 
a 〈…〉  Physicians of no value. We read of 
b 〈…〉  a woman in the Gospel, which had a● issue of blood for 12 years, and had suff●ed many things of many Physicians, and spent all that she had upon them, even all her living, and yet was nothing better, but rather worse, and could not be heated by any of them. This woman is a true Emble● of England, lying for so many years, or more, si●k of a bloody issue under the hands of several Physicians, under the Name and Disguise of Parliaments of several Forms and Models, who (with their armed supporters) have put her to infinite expenses, sufferings, and exhausted all she hath; and yet they have neither healed nor amended her in any kind, but left her in a ●arr worse condition than they found her, 
c ●er. 30. 13.  for want of healing skill, or medicines; applying nothing but new corrosives & caustics of steel, instead of astringents and incar●natives to her bleeding wounds: yea those very Physicians are now so full of man●fold infirmities, distempers, if not gross corruptions, that we may surely say unto them this Proverb, 
d Lu. 4. 23.  PHYSICIAN HEAL THYSELF, before we can possibly expect any public healing from them either in Church or State. If these few leaves, through God's blessing on them, shall become 
e Rev. 22. 2.  like to the leaves of the tree of life, for the healing of these Physicians, & our Nations, (one prime end of their publication) I shall bless God for it, and deem my cost and labour well bestowed; however this shall be my comfort;

One chief means to make our future Parliaments beneficial, medicinal and restorative to our Nation, is, to restore them to their ancient freedom, and secure them and their Members from all future force and violence; which may be easily effected, 1.

By declaring and enacting all Persons whatsoever to be actual Traitors, and Enemies to the Nation, (as they are by

Law) and to be effectually proceeded against as such; who shall offer any force, violence, assault to the Parliament, or any Member or Members thereof during their attending therein, or in going to or returning from the same, or violently interrupt their proceedings. And that all who shall hereafter be peccant in this kind, & 
* 21 R. 2. c. ●.  their heirs males shall be for ever hereafter disabled to sit in Parliament, or bear any Office whatsoever, Civil or military, or to purchase or re-ceive any Lands, Chattels, Gift, Legacy or bequest whatsoever, or to enjoy the privileges of an English Freeman.  
My chief design in this & other late publications, hath been to inform the English Nation of the true Original constitution, uses, ends, Rights, Privileges, Judicarure, and Proceedings of the Great Councils and Parliaments held within our Island, from its original plantation by the Britons, till the Normans ruling in it, which I have already published in a Brief 
* In my Summary Collections, etc. and Breviate,  Chronological manner, and from thence to the end of King Edward the 4th his reign, which I have likewise in a good measure accomplished in my late enlarged Plea for the Lords and House of Peers; wherein I have given the Readers a large account of most of the Great Councils held under King Henry the 1. and 2. proving, there were no Knights, Citizens or Burgesses summoned to them in their reigns, as they have been of later times; which may be further evidenced by these Historical Passages and Great Councils which I there omitted.  
In the year of Christ 1109. in a 
h Eadmerus Hist. Novor. l. 3. p. 67, 68  Great Council of the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, ET PRINCIPUM totius Regni, there was this Canon made amongst others; Vt nullus Archidiaconus Presbyter, Diaconus, Canonicus uxorem ducat, vel ductam retineat, etc. Vt Presbyter quamdiu illicitam conversationem mulieris habuerit, non sit legalis, nec missam celebret, nec si celebraverit, ejus miss a audiatur: After Anselms banishment very many Priests retaining or resuming their wives contrary to these Decrees, 
i Eadmerus l. 4. p. 83, 84, 85.  King Henry the 1. thereupon caused his Ministers to indict, and prosecute many Priests for this contempt, only to extort moneys from them: but their fines not amounting to so great a sum as the King expected, there was a general Sentence given against all the Priests, as well innocent as nocent, and a fine set upon every Parish Church, which the Priest thereof was to redeem; which some Priests having no money, and others refusing to pay, because it was an unjust innovation, they were thereupon contumeliously seized upon by force, imprisoned and tortured; and when near 200 of them in their Surplices and Priests habits came all together to the King's place in London barefoot, imploring him with one voice to take pity on them, Ille ad preces ●orum nulla miseratione permotus est, vel saltem quavis eos, sicut homin●s omnis religionis expertes, responsi honestate dignatus, suis obtutibus festine abegi praecepit: whereupon they repaired to the Queen, who only wept in pity towards them, but could not relieve them. Anselm upon the other Bishop's Letter to him, writ an Epistle to the King touching this proceeding of his, as an innovation, Quod hactenus inauditum et inusitatum est in Ecclesia Dei de ullo Rege, et de aliquo Principe. No● enim pertinet secundum legem Dei hujusmodi culpam vindicare ●isi ad singulos Episcopos per suas parochias, ●ut si & ipsi Episcopi in hoc negligentes fuerint, ad Archiepiscopum & Primatem, etc. Adding, Dico enim vobis quod valde timere debetis, quod pecunia taliter accepta, ut taceam quantum noceat animae, non tamen cum expendetur, adjuvabit terrena negoti●, quantum postea perturbabit. To which the King returned this answer.

Deinde venit dominus Rex usque Merleberge: ubi Rex dedit Philippo de Brensa totum regnum de Limeric pro servitio sexaginta mili●um, tenendum de ipso & de johanne filio suo. Nam Herebertus & Willielmus fratres Reginaldi Comi●is Cornubiae, & joslanus de la Pumerai nepos eorum, regnum illud habere noluerunt, eo quod nondum perquisitum erat: nam occiso a regalibus rege Monodero, qui Rex erat de Limeric, & homo regis Angliae inde suerat, quidam de progeny illius, vir potens et fortis, regnum de Limeric invasit, cepit, et potenter rexit, nullam subjectionem faciens Regi Angliae, nec suis obedire voluit propter infidelitatem eorum, & mala quae faciebant populo Hyberniae sine merito.

By which precedent it is evident; that King Henry by the advice of his Great Council of Prelates and Nobles of & in England, disposed both of the Kingdoms, Crowns and Lands in Ireland to his Son, and other subjects of England. The same King

To pretermit the Parliamentary Councils under King's Richard the 1. of which I have given you some account in my Plea ●or the Lords, p. 234. to 242. I shall proceed to those in the beginning of King john's reign.  
In the 1. year of King john Anno Dom. 1199. there was a Great Council of the Spiritual and Temporal Lords and Barons summoned to his Coronation, thus related by 
a Flores H●st. pa●s 2. Anno 1199. p.  Matthew Westminster, though there be no writs of Summons thereunto extant on record; Dux Normanniae Johannes in vigilia Ascensionis Domini London venit, ibi CONGREGATIS ANGLIAE NOBILIBUS, ab H●b●rto Cantuariensi Archiepiscopo coronatus est, die● Ascensionis Domini; which 
b Annalium pars posterior Ann. 119. p. 793.  Roger de Housden thus relates, Congregatis igitnr apud Lundonias in advent● praedicti ducis Huberto Cantuariensi, Johanne Dublinensi, et de Raguse Archiepiscopus, Willielmo Lundoniensi, Gilberto Roffensi, Johanne Norwicensi, Hugone Lincolnensi, Eustachio Eliensi, Godfrido Wintoniensi, Henrico Exoniensi, Sefrido Cicestrensi, Gau●rido Coventrensi, Savarico Bathoniensi, Hereberto Salesburiensi, Philippo Dunelmensi, Rogero de sancto Andrea in Scotia, Henrico de Landas Episcopis, Roberto de Leicestre, Richardo de Clare, Willielmo de Tutesburie, Hamelino de Warenne, Willielmo de Salisbirie, Willielmo de Striguil, Walranno de Warewic, Rogero Bigot, Willielmo de Arundel, Ranulfo de Cestre Comitibus, & Baronibus multis: Hubertus Cantuariensis Archiepiscopus coronoavit, et consecravit in regem Angliae prefatum Johannem ducem Normanniae, in Ecclesia sancti Petri Apostoli Westminstriae, sexto Calen●. junii, feria 5. die Ascensionis Domini; Philippo Dunelmensi Episcopo appellante, ne coronatio illa fieret in absentia Gaufridi Eboracensis Archiepiscopi, totius Angliae Primatis. 
c H●st. A●g p. 1●9. 100LS.  Matthew Paris thus records the manner of his Coronation more fully. CONGREGATIS ita que in adventu ejus, Archiepiscopis, Episcopis, Comitibus et Baronibus atque aliis omnibus, qui ejus coronationi interesse debuerant, Archiepiscopus staus' in medio omnium, dixit; Audite universi. Noverit discretio vestra, quod nullus praevia ratione alii succedere habet regnum, nisi ab universitate Regni unanimiter, invocata Spiritus gratia electus, & secundum morum suorum eminentiam praeelectus, ad exemplum et similitudinem Saul primi Regis inuncti, quem praeposuit Dominus populo suo, non Regis filium, nec de Regali stirpe procreatum. Similiter post eum David Sem ei filium: hunc quia strenuum et aptum dignitati regiae, illum quia sanctum et humilem, ut sic qui cunctos in regno supereminet strenuitate, omnibus praesit et potestate et regimine. Verum si quis ex stirpe Regis defuncti aliis praepolleret, pronius et promptius in electionem ejus est consentiendum. Haec idcirco diximus pro inclyto Comite johanne, qui praesens est, frater illustrissimi Regis nostri Richardi jam defuncti, qui haerede caruit ab eo egrediente, qui providus et strenuus & manifest nobilis, qnem nos, invocata Spiritus sanctigratia, ratione tam meritorum quam sanguinis Regii unanimiter elegimus universi. Erat autem Archiepiscopus vir prosundi pectoris, et in regno singularis columna stabilicatis et sapientiae incomparabilis. Nec ausi erant alii super his adhuc ambigere; scientes quod sine causa hoc non sic diffiniverat. Verum Comes Iohannes et omnes hoc acceptaban●, ipsumque Comitem in Regem eligentes et assumentes, exclamant dicentes: Vivat rex. Interrogatus autem postea Archiepiscopus Hubertus, quare haec dixisset? respondit se praesaga ment conjecturare, et quibusdam oraculis edoctum & certificatum fuisse, quod ipse Johannes Regnum & Coronam Angliae foret aliquando corrupturus, & in magnam confusionem precipitaturus. Et ne haberet liberas habenas hoc faciendi, ipsum electione non successione haereditaria, eligi debere affirmabat. Archiepiscopus autem imponens capiti ejus coronam, unxit eum in regem ap●d Westmor a●t●rium, sc. in Ecclesia principis Apostolorum, Dominicae ascensionis die, sexto kalendas Junii, Philippo Dunelmensi Episcopo appellante, sed non obtinen●e, ne coronatio illa fieret in absentia G. Archiepiscopi Eboracensis. In hac coronatione Rex Iohannes triplici involutus est sacramento: Quod videlicet sanctam Ecclesiam et ejus ordinatos diligeret, et eam ab incursione malignantium indemnem conservaret: et quod perversis legibus destructis, bonas substitueret, et rectam justitiam in regno Angliae exerceret. Deinde adjuratus est ab eodem Archiepisc opo ex parte Dei, et districte prohibitus, ne honorem hunc accipere praesumeret, nisi in ment habeat opere, quod juraverat, adimplere. Ad hoc ille respondens, promisit se per auxilium Dei, bona fide, ea quae juraverat, servaturum. In crastino autem, homagiis et fidelitatibus acceptis, beatum Albanum Protomartyrem Angliae, orationis gratia, devotus petivit. Et sic brevissimam in Anglia moram faciens, ea quae statuenda erant in regno, cum consilio Magnatum rite peregit.  
In the 2. year of (d) King john, Anno 1200. Hubert Archbishop of Canterbury and Chancellor of England, Generale celebravit Concilium Londini apud Westmona sterium, contra prohibitionem Gawfridi silii Petri, Comitis Essex, tunc temporis summi justiciarij Angl●ae; In which many Laws and Canons were made touching Ecclesiastical persons and businesses, recorded at large in 
e Annal. pars posterior P. 806. to 810.  Roger de Hoveden. And in the same year the same 
g Pag. ●803.  Author writes, the long su●e between William de Stutevil, and William de Mowbray, touching the Barony of Mowbray, was compremised and ended by an agreement made between them CONSILIO REGNI, & VOLUNTATE REGIS. In which Council of the Realm, it is most probable, Statuta quaedam Johannis Regis, concerning the prizes of Wine, registered by 
g Ibid. p. 795, 796.  Hoveden, were made. Sed hoc PRIMUM Regis STATUTUM vix inchoatum, statim est adnihilatum, quiae Mercatores hanc Assisam sustinere non poterunt, & data est eis licentia vendendi sextertium de vino albo pro octo denariis, & vini rubri pro sex denariis, & sic repleta est terra potu, & potatoribus. The Writs of Summons for these two General Councils of the Church and Realm this year, are not found extant on record.  
The Patent Roll in the 5 of 
h Pat. 5. Johan Regis m. 1. n. 3. Seldens Title of Honour p. 707.  King john, makes mention of an Assize of Beer and Wine, made per Commune Consilium Baronum nostrorum, held the year before at Winchester.  
Rex, etc. sciatis, Nos Communi Cons●lio Baronum nostrorum constituisse, Quod albus panis factus in Civitate nostra Winton. fit ponderis 3 c Sol. etc. Et unusquisque Pistor sigillum suum pani suo apponat, etc. Et volumus et firmiter praecipimus, quod haec constitutio firmiter teneatur. Facta est autem haec constitutio ad Pascham proximam post obitum Alienorae Reginae matris nostrae, anno regni nostri quinto, Teste G. fill. Petri Com. Essex. apud Freitemnel 15 die Aprilis.  
This Ordinance for the Assize of Bread, with the Proclamation and proceedings thereupon, is more at large recorded in Matthew Paris Hist. Angl. Anno 1262, Editione Tyguri 1589. p. 200. where you may peruse it at leisure.  
In the 5th. year of his reign (as 
x ●ist. Ang. p. 204.  Met. Paris relates) Rex Johannes in COMITES & BARONES occasiones praetendens, quod ipsuminter hosts reliquerant in partibus transmarinis, unde Castilia, & terras suas pro eorum defectu amiserat, caepit ab eis septimam partem omnium mobilium suorum (by grant, as I conceive in a Parliamentary Council) nec etiam ab hac rapina in Ecclesiis conventualibns manus coercuit violentas. Yet I find no Writ of Summons to this Council in the Rolls of this year.  
In the 6 year of his reign, 
y Mat. Paris, p. 201. Ma●. Westm. p. 83.  An. 1204. In crastino circumcisionis venerunt ad Colloquium apud Oxoniam Rex & MAGNATES Angliae, ubi concessa sunt Regi auxilia militaria de quolibet scuto, scilcet duae marcae & dimidia. Nec etiam Episcopi & Abbates, sive Ecclesiasticae personae, sine promise one recesserunt.  
In the 8 year of his Regality, as 
z Mat. Paris p. 204. M●t. Westm. p. 83.  King john celebrated the day of our Saviour's Nativity at Oxford; So it appears he likewise held a Parliamentary Council there, which granted him an aid toward the recovery of his lands in France, and defence of the Realm of England, by these two Records that year.

This same year the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Archdeacon's, and Clergy of England by command from Pope Innocent, without the Kings Writ or consent, were called to, and resolved to hold a Council at Saint Alban, to pay Romescot in an unusual manner, and many other unaccustomed exactions, to the great prejudice of the Kingdom, and oppression of the people; whereupon the King upon the general complaint of the universality of the Earls, Barons, Knights, and other Subjects against those exactions & this Council, issued forth this memorable Writ and Prohibirion, in preservation of the rights of the Crown, Kingdom, People, against this Papal usurpation and innovation.

I shall trouble you with no more Precedents or Records of this nature, by way of Preface to this first part of my Register, Calendar and Survey of Parliamentary Writs: In which I have presented you only with the several Writs of Summons directed to the Spiritual and Temporal Lords, and King's Council (their ordinary Assistants) intermixed with some other Writs, and several forms of Procurations, in my Observations on them; which relate wholly, or principally to the House of Lords, Convocations, and Clergy, amounting to a just vendible Volume. The several forms, varieties of Writs issued to Sheriffs of Counties, Wardens, or Officers of the Cinque-Ports, Dukes of Lancaster, their Lieutenants, or Chancellors, and Sheriffs of particular Boroughs●made ●made Counties within ●emselves) for electing Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, and Barons of the Ports (peculiar to the House of Commons) with all sorts of Writs for proroguing, continuing, adjourning Parliaments, or superseding them after summons to them upon extraordinary occasions, (relating equally to both Houses of Parliament, and their Members) together with some special Writs of Summons to the Kings, Prelates, Nobles, Barons, Great Officers, and others of the Realms, Lands of Scotland and Ireland, to appear in, at, or before the Parliaments, Great Councils, Kings, or Privy Council in England, concerning the affairs, or defence of Scotland and Ireland only: as likewise to particular Merchants, Masters of Ships, Foresters, Lawyers, learned men of both Universities, and other Persons upon special occasions, to attend the Parliament, King, Council; with my particular Observations on them, (which I at first intended to have published in this Piece) I shall (if God send health, life, opportunity, and encouragement by a grateful acceptance of these First-fruits) with all convenient speed, communicate to the World in A Second Part. After which, I shall in two or more distinct Volumes, present unto public view several other kinds of Writs, relating to the Parliaments, Great Councils, Convocations and Clergy of England, to all sorts of proceedings in them, Criminal, or Civil; the assessing, levying of the expenses of Knights, Citizens, and Burgesses of Parliament: of Dimes, Quidismes, Aids, Subsidies, Customs, Imposts, granted by them; with the disposing, releasing of them; the defence of the Realm by Land or Sea in times of danger; the proclaiming, observing of the Great Charters, Laws, and Liberties of England; and of Acts and Ordinances of Parliament newly enacted; with sundry other Rarities, which all former Writers of our English Parliaments have either totally omitted, or but briefly touched, and that very slightly; though of excellent use, and most necessary to be insisted on, for the information of their Readers, and benefit of Posterity.  
Not to detain you with any longer Preface, I shall now leave you to the perusal of this First Part, distinct from those Parts I intent shall follow it; if embraced with that respect, affection, and desire as it may justly expect and hope for from the Nobility, Gentry, Lawyers, Antiquaries and Heralds of the English nation. But if slighted, vilified, neglected, like old Almanacs or fashions grown quite out of use and request (though mere Novelties in their discovery & communication to the world, hitherto unacquainted with them) I shall then resolve to cast no more such precious ancient

A Brief Register, Calendar, and Survey of the several kinds of all Parliamentary Writs; with useful Observations on them.  
THat all Great Councils of State, Parliaments, Synods, Convocations held in England, under the British, Saxon, Danish, Norman, English Kings successively reigning therein, were summoned by their Royal Writs, precepts, and held by their Authority alone, is a Truth irrefragable, which I have 
a Antiquity triumphing over Novelty, p. 8. to 109. The 2, & 3. Part of a Seasonable, Historical & Legal Vindication, etc. my Plea for the Lords, and House of Peers. A Breviate of the ancient Great Councils and Parliaments of England.  elsewhere abundantly evidenced by Histories and Records, though all the Writs whereby they were summoned till the reign of King john, be no where extant, being consumed by the all-devouring jaws of time. The Writs of Summons to Parliaments and Great Councils of State, being the Corner-stones whereon they are founded, and best discovering the causes, ends for which they were summoned; instead of that Folio Register of them at large which I once intended to have published, I shall present you only with a Brief Register and Calendar of some of the ancientest and rarest of them, full of excellent variety and delight; and such Observations on and from them, as may best instruct the Readers, rectify the mistakes of some pretended Antiquartes who have written of our English Parliaments, writs of summons to them, and supply their defects, especially concerning the several forms and various kinds of Parliamentary writs, which they have rather touched than handled, being all very maimed and incomplete in this particular.  
To avoid Confusion, I shall Marshal these Writs into several Squadrons, according to the quality of the persons to whom they were directed, and that in a Chronological Series, digesting them into distinct Sections, beginning with those issued out to our Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors and Spiritual Lords or Barons of the Realm.   

SECTION I.  
Concerning Writs of Summons to Parliaments, Great Councils, Convocations, issued out to Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors, and other Ecclestastical Barons of the Realm, who were Peers and Members of our Parliaments.  
THe first writ of Summons to Parliament of this (of any other) kind extant in History or Record, that I have seen, is in the 6. year of King john, running in this Form of words.

Mandamus vobis Rogantes quatenus omni occasione & dilatione postposita, sicut nos & honorem nostrum diligitis, sitis ad nos apud London die Dominica proxima ante Ascensionem Domini, nobiscum tractatur● de magnis & arduis negotiis nostris & Communi regni utilitate.

The 2. writ of this kind extant on Record, is that in 26 H. 3.

T. me ipso, apud Windlesoram XIV die Decembris.  
There are some writs directed to the Archbishops, and Bishops in 38 H. 3. which seem much like a writ of Summons of the Clergy to a Convocation, which I shall here insert.  
Claus. An. 38 H. 3. m. 7. dorso. Rex, R. Cantuar. Archiep●scopo, totius Angliae Primati, salutem. Cum Rex Castellae nullo jure sed potentiae sua confisus, terram nostram Wasconiae cum multitudine Christianorum et Saracenorum in aestate prox. futura hostiliter sit ingressurus, prout alias vobis significavimus, quam quidem terram in tanto periculo constitutam contra tam potentem Principem sine communi Regni nostri Angliae auxilio defendere non valemus; dolentes si regnum praedictum, quod inter caeteros mundi Principatus probitate gentium florere sole●, propter virium impotentiam aut segnitiem propriam suis viribus destitutum succum●eret.

Inducentes eos modis omnibus quibus poteritis, quod Nobis in tanta necessitate liber ●●●ter subveniant et gratiose ad praedictae terrae nostrae defensionem, quod in ipsorum honorem verte●ur sempiternum: cum ex contrario, hujus negotii eventu non tantum nobis, sed singulis regni nostri, personarum et rerum dampnum manifeste immineat periculosum. Proviso, quod aliqui viri discreti ex parte praedictorum certificent CONSILIUM NOSTRUM apud Westm. in quindena Pasch: prox. futur. de modo et quantitate subsidii memorati. Salvis nobis promissionibus tunc solvendis ibidem a viris religiosis vestrae Diocaesis nobis factis in quindena sancti Hilarii prox. praeteriti. Et quia ordinariam Jurisdictionem exerceatis vacante sede in Episcopatu Lincoln, vos requirimus affectuose, quatenus Officialibus vestris ejusdem Episcopatus scia●is attente, quod tempestive convocent coram eye Capitulum Cathedralis Lincoln. Archidiaconos, viros religiosos & Clerum ejusdem Episcopatus ad certos diem & locum. Inducentes eos modis omnibus quod in hac necessitate nostra consimilem Nobis faciant subventionem, et quod certificent CONSILIUM NOSTRUM apud Westm. in praedicta Quindena Pasch. per viros discretos ejusdem Episcopatus de modo & quantitate praedicti subsidii. Salvis nobis promissionibus a viris religiosis praedicti Episcopatus nobis factis in quindena sancti Hillaerii prox. praeteriti sicut praedictum est. In cujus, etc. T. A. Regina nostra, & R. Com. Cornub. fratre nostro, apud Windlesor 11 die Febr.  
Eodem modo mandatum est Archiepiscopo Eborum, & singulis Episcopis totius Angliae, & Officialibus Bathon. & Wellen, Episcopi, nulla facta mentione de Episcopatu Linc.  
This writ is no summons either to a Parliament, Council, or Convocation of the Clergy, as it may seem to some men, but a special writ directed to the Archbishops and Bishops in their several Diocese, to summon their Chapters, Archdeacon's, Clergy, and the religious persons in their respective Diocese before them, and to excite them to a free, voluntary, and liberal contribution to supply and ●elieve the King's necessities, for the defence of Gas●●ig●, against the intended invasion of the King of Castle, as the whole frame thereof demonstrates, and their several certificates of the manner and quantity of their aids, and the sums they would contribute in this necessity, required to be certified from every Bishopric and Diocese to the King's Council at Westminster by certain discreet men; with distinct promises by religious persons mentioned therein, do manifest beyond contradiction; Every Bishop, with the Clergy, and religious in every distinct Diocese, being to meet and act apart herein by themselves, and not summoned to meet all together to advise and resolve concerning this aid requested from them: Therefore though a writ fit to be inserted into this Register, yet I shall not enumerate it amongst the writs of summons to a Parliament, Council, or Convocation.  
The 3. Writ is that of 49 H. 3.

Teste Rege apud Wigorn. 14. die Novembris.  
The like writs (as appears by the Roll) were directed to the Archbishop of York, and 11 more Bishops; to 101 Abbots and Priors, to the Master of the Knights of the Temple in England, and to the Deans of York, Exon, Wells, Sarum and Lincoln.  
The 4. writ is that of 23 E. 1. m. 9 Dorso.

The like writs then issued to the Archbishop of York and 18. other Bishops; to the Master of the Order of Semplingham, the Master of the Knights of the Temple, the Prior of the Hospital of St. john's jerusalem in England, and to 53. Abbots and Priors, whose names are recorded in the Rolls, over tedious to transcribe at large.  
The same year 23. E. 1. there was another Parliament summoned by this memorable writ, the 5. I find upon Record.

The like Writs were then issued to the Arch Bishop of York, and 13 other Bishops there named, only with this diversity, Praemunientes Decanos et Capitula Ecclesiarum, Archidiaconos totumque Clerum suorum Dioc. facientesque quod iidem Decani & Archidiaconi in propriis personis suis, & dict a Caepitula per unum, idemque Cl●rus per duos Procuratores idoneos, plenam & sufficientem potestatem ab ipsis Capitu●is & Clero habentes, etc. as before.

The like Writs were then sent to 66 Abbots and Priors there named ●omitting the whole clause of Praemunientes, etc.) and to the Masters of the Knights of the Temple, and of the order of Semplingham, and to the Prior of the Hospital of St. john jerusalem in England.

Clerus ob constitutionem Bonifacii hoc anno edi●am quae prohibet sub poena ex communicationis ne talliae vel exactiones a Clero per seculares Principes quocunque modo exigantur, vel eis solvantur de rebus Ecclesiae, Rege pro werra sua petenti subsidium denegavit. Rex autem ut de meliori responso deliberarent negotium in aliud Parliamentum ●enendum Londo●iis in crastino sancti Hillarii distuli●. Parliamentum coactum est Londoniis post ●estum sancti Hillarii, in quo clero persistente in denegatione subsidii, Rex ipsum a sua protectione exclusit. Pro qua tamen redimendo, multi per se, multi vero per mediatores, regi bonorum suorum dederunt postea quintam partem. Rex Archiepiscopum rigidiorem comperiens, terras ejus omnes seisivit, & de bonis ejusdem debita in Rotulis Scaccarii inventa praecepit cum celeritate levari. Nam idem Archiepiscopus de consensu Cleri procuraverat a Papa inhibitionem, ne quis Clericorum ●egem respiceret be bonis Ecclesiae.  Vestra paternitas plane novit, qualiter vos & alii Praelati, & Clerus regni nostri apud Westm. ultimo congregati, in concessione pecuniae reddituum, & benesiciorum vestrorum ecclesiasticorum pro defensione regni ejusdem usque ad festum sancti Michaelis prox. futur. nobis facta, & sub spe ub●rioris subsidii in futuro a vobis & aliis praestandi admissa, bonum et sufficiens nobis pro futuro tempore subsidium ob candem causam, nisi interim inter Regem Franciae & nos Pacem reformari vel Treugas iniri contingeret, dare promisistis unanimiter, liberaliter & libenter; cui quidem reformationi pacis vel initioni Treugarum dictus Rex Franciae hactenus non consensit. Quocirca vobis mandamus in fide et dilectione quibus nobis te nemini firmiter injungentes, quod in crastino animarum prox. futur. apud sanctum Edmundum personaliter intersitis.

The like writs issued. Custodi Archiepiscopatus Eborum, sede vacant; Electo Menevensi, vel ejus vices gerenti ipso agente in partibus transmarinis: et Electo Landavensi; and to 17. Bishops more: It being usual then, and in succeeding times, to issue out writs to Bishops elect, and so to Abbots and Priors elect, before their consecrations or instalments; and to Bishop's Vicars, or Vicegerents, in case of their absence in foreign parts.  
The like writs were then directed to 68 Abbots, but not to one Prior, except of the Hospital of jerusalem, and to the Masters of the Knights of the Temple, and Order of Semplingham: differing only in the Praemunientes, etc. and this close of the writs, Ad tractand. ordinand. & faciend.

The like writs then issued to 4 more Bishops, 4 Earls, and 5 Lords only, and no more, without any other Bishops, Abbots, Priors, or Temporal Lords mentioned in the Roll. Whence I conceive it rather a summons to a private Consultation, than a Common Council or Parliament, the frame of the whole writ importing as much, and that following it at the heels.  
The 11. is a writ of Summons to a Parliament, recorded in the dorse of the same Membrana.

Before I proceed to my Observations on the precedent writs, I shall crave leave to inform and satisfy the ingenuous Readers in 2. particulars, to prevent their causeless censures.  
1. That the usual writs in some Clause Rolls to the Spiritual Lords were for Brevity sake purposely omitted, and in the Consimiles literae, and eodem modo, etc. after the transcripts of the writs of Summons here inserted (especially those of King Edward the 2.) the paticular Numbers of the Bishops, Abbots, Priors, and Spiritual Lords then summoned to those Parliaments mentioned in the Eodem modo etc. were casually left out (though entered by their names in the Clause Rolls) by reason of an, etc. and vacant spaces in the written Copy for their numbers; through haste forgotten to be filled up, before they were printed off; which caused some Errors and Omissions of the true number of Bishops, Abbots & Priors in the Eodem modo, etc. from p. 14. to 32. which I think necessary here to rectify and supply, rather than in an Errata at the end of this Breviate; and that in this brief manner.

These are the only Omissions, in the writs to the Bishops, Abbots, Priors and Spiritual Lords, and mistakes in the numbers of them in the Eodem modo, Consimiles literae, and Consimilia Brevia, omitted casually in the premises.  
The 2. thing I shall acquaint the Readers with, are the reasons inducing me to recite so many writs to the Archbishops and Prelates, running all in the selfsame form; which may seem to many a mere Tautology and superfluity, which might have been better expunged, than inserted into this Breviat, though in truth not so. For I recited them all in this manner upon these considerations. 1. To inform the Readers in what Clause Rolls in the Tower all the writs of Summons are extant, and in what Membranaes and dorses they may readily find them upon all occasions; A very useful, & hitherto unpublished, yea generally unknown part of Antiquity and learning. 2ly. To inform the Readers of the exact numbers of these writs of Summons, their several dates, and the particular places, days of all Parliaments and great Councils meetings extant on Record, from 49 H. 3. to 23 E. 4. and the numbers of the Spiritual Lords and Prelates of all sorts summoned to them, not hitherto published by any. 3ly. Because the beginnings and recitals of all or most writs in these Rolls to the Temporal Lords, Sheriffs, Council of the King, and Warden of the ●inqueports, cited by me in the ensuing Sections, refer for the most part to the writs to the Archbishops and Bishops, (usually entered at large in every Roll) and to their respective dates, with an, etc. ut supra, Teste ut supra, and the like, and must be compared with them by the Readers to make them complete. 4ly. Because the styles of some Bishops who were Patriarches, Cardinals, Bishops elect, or elected and confirmed; and the writs to such; yea, to the Guardians of Bishop's Spiritualties during the vacancy of their Bishoprics, and to their Vicar Generals during their absence in foreign parts; and to the Administrators of Bishoprics, are for the most part recorded only in the Eodem modo, Consimiles literae, or Consimilia brevia, subjoined to those usual writs here abbreviated; therefore it was absolutely necessary to repeat them, to evidence and clear up those hitherto unknown, uncommon particulars and rarities. All which reasons duly pondered, will, I hope, absolve me from the guilt of any Tautologies, or super fluous recitals in the premised Writs, and adjuncts annexed to them.  

Useful Annotations and Observations upon the precedent Writs to the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors, Ecclesiastical Barons, and Clergy.  
FRom the precedent Writs of Summons issued to the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors. Ecclesiastical Barons, and Clergy, wherewith I have presented you in a Chronological Series according to their Antiquities, I shall here, for the information of such Lawyers, Gentlemen, and other Readers unversed in Records of this nature, recommend these ensuing particular Observations to them, before I proceed to the Writs of Summons to the Temporal Lords; reserving my General Annotations and Observations concerning Parliamentary writs for the Close of the first Part of this Brief Register, Calendar and Survey; when they have taken a full view of all the several kinds and varieties of Parliamentary writs of Summons, whereon they must be grounded.  
1. That as the Spiritual Lords and Barons, are mentioned in all 
a See Spelmann● Concilia, Ingulphi Historia, The Prologues to the printed Statutes of H. 3. Ed. 1, 2, 3, 4. R. 2. H. 4. 5, 6, 7, 8.  Great Councils, Parliaments, Prologues, and Acts of Parliament before the Temporal Lords and Barons: So generally for the most part, the writs of Summons directed to them are first entered, recorded in the Dorse of the Clause Rolls, before the writs to the Temporal Lords, though now and then the writs to the Prince of Wales, and some other Temporal Peers, are first enroled, but yet very rarely.  
2. That when there was an Archbishop of Canterbury in being, the first writ of Summons to, or Prorogation of Parliaments entered in the Rolls, is generally that which issued unto him, as Primate of all England; if within the Realm, or to his 〈…〉 absence out of it; But when there was no Archbishop of Canterbury living; the first writ 〈…〉 in the Ro●●s issued to the Archbishop of 〈◊〉▪ as Primate of England: yet 
b Here, p. 28, 29 36.  now and then the first writ of Summons entered, is directed to the Archbishop of York, when both are living; and the writ to the Guardian of the Spiritualties of Canterbury 〈…〉 of that See is sometimes first entered before the writ to the Archbishop of York: Yea, if the Archbishop of York was a Cardinal▪ and Canterbury none ye 〈…〉 of Summons, as appears by Cl●●s 25 H. 6. m. 16. & 24 dorso, and 29 H. 6. m. 〈…〉 ●orso, and other Rolls.  
3. That when both Sees of Canterbury and York were void, the first writ entered was directed to the 
c Here, p. 55.  Bishop of London (as in 22 E. 3. where the Archbishop of Canterbury was elected and confirmed, but not installed, and York quite void) and sometimes to some other Bishop, without any certain method therein observed.  
4. That in Claus. 
d Here, p. 3.  6 johannis (the first writ of Summons extant) there is only one single writ of Summons without the Bishop's name to whom it was issued, and in Claus. 26 H. 3. only one single writ of Summons to the Archbishop of York, without mention of any writs to other Bishops, which yet no doubt had writs of Summons as well as he, though not entered, as some clauses in the bodies of both these writs do intimate.  
5. That in the Summons of 49 H. 
e Here, p. 5, 6.  3. the first, and only writ registered is directed to the Bishop of Durham, and 18 Abbots and Priors are listed in the Eodem modo mandatum est, before the Archbishop of York and other Bishops.  
6. That the writs directed to the Archbishops of Canterbury always styled them▪ Venerabili in Christo Patri eadem gratia Cantuariae Archiepiscopo, totius Angliae Primati: That the writs issued to the Archbishops of York ever use this stile; Venerabili in Christo Patri eadem gratia Eborum, Archiepiscopo, Angliae Primati, leaving out totius: And the writs sent to all other Bishops run thus, Venerabili in Christo Patri eadem gratia Episcopo, etc. (But i● any Archbishop or Bishop were made a Cardinal, than the stile was, Cardinali et Archiepiscopo Eborum, et Cardinali et Episcopo Wynton: as in Claus. 25 H. 6. m. 16, 24 dorso. 29 H. 6. m. 21. dorso, and other Clause Rolls of Hen. 6. when York and Winchester were both Cardinals; and Winchester is still placed whiles a Cardinal next after York. The writs to Abbots, Priors, Guardians of Spiritualties of Bishops, and other Ecclesiastical persons, usually run in this form, Dilecto sibi in Christo Abbati Sancti Augustini, &c, or Priori de Lewes, etc. which I have here omitted in their writs for the most part, with an, etc. to avoid frequent Repetitions, and prolixity.  
7. That in the Eodem modo, and Calendar of the Bishop's names to whom writs were directed, the Archbishop of York is for the most part first named, yet sometimes he and his Suffragans are listed after all the Bishops of the Province of Canterbury, sometimes before them, sometimes intermixed with them. In the entering of the Bishop's names, there is no certain order or method observed; for sometimes the Bishop of Durham is first named, other times the Bishop of London, elewhere the Bishop of Winchester: sometimes the Bishop of Rochester, otherwhiles Chichester: Now and then all the Welsh Bishops are named together after all the rest of the Province of Canterbury, yet in some Rolls they are named promiscuously, & intermixed with the English Prelates, as the writs came first to the Registers hands, and not according to the Antiquity of their Sees or consecrations, for aught I can discern by comparing their entries; Only it is observable, that Anthony 
f See Godwins Catalogue of Bishops, p. 520, 521. Seldens Titles of Honour, p. 720.  Beak Bishop of Durham (a very wealthy Prelate) procuring himself to be made Patriarch of jerusalem by the Pope, was summoned by the Title of A. Patriarch. jerusalem. et Episc. Dunolm. in the Summons of 1, 2, 13 of Edward 2. Here, p. 15, 16. and entered next after the Archbishop of York in the Rolls.  
8. That the Bishops for the most part are named in the Rolls, and entered by themselves before the Abbots and Priors, yet now and then (but very rarely) they are intermixed with the Abbots and Priors, as in 49 H. 3. dors. 11.  
9 That all the Archbishops and Bishops were usually summoned to all our Parliaments, but not to Councils of State, and that in person, if in England, or alive. But when any 
g Here, p. 11, 19, 20, 21, 22, 27, 28, 37, 40, 41, 42, 43. 46, 51, 64, 65. etc. 95, 96, 97.  Archbishop or Bishop was absent in foreign parts, the King usually sent writs of Summons to their Vicar's Generals: and when their Bishoprics were void by their deaths, or translations to another Bishopric, to the Guardians of their Spiritualties, to supply their places.  
10. That when any Archbishop, Bishop, or Abbot, was elected only, 
h Here, p. 9 16. 42, 46, 50, 55▪ 59, 71. 96, 97.  before his confirmation or instalment; the writ of Summons issued to him by the name of I. Electo Cantuanae, electo Hereford, etc. If elected and confirmed, but not installed; than Electo Cantuariae, or Hereford▪ confirmato: By which it is evident, that Archbishops, Bishops, and Abbots only elected, or elected or confirmed, might be and were usually summoned to 〈…〉 likewise in their absence beyond the Seas; Yea, in 2 E. 2. dors. 14. There is a writ issued R. Electo Dublin Episcopo, in the Eodem modo, registered amongst the Bishops of England, next after the Patriarch of jerusalem, and Bishop of Durham:  
12. That the chief reason why sometimes there are more Bishops summoned to one Parliament than another, is only the vacation of their Sees by their deaths or translations: what the number of them was summoned to each Parliament, I have mentioned in the gross where I find them entered in the roll at large, to avoid the repetition of their names, which those who please may peruse in the rolls themselves.  
1● That the first writs to the Archbishops of Canterbury, York, or any other Bishop in the Clause Rolls, be they writs either of Summons to a Parliament, Council, or Convocation, or of Adjournment, or Prorogation, are usually entered at large: which I have abbreviated with an, etc. where the form and clauses are the same with those I transcribe at large. And the writs which follow the first issued to the rest of the Bishops, are but briefly entered for the most part, with an Eodem modo mandatum est subscriptis, or Consimiles Literae, or Consimilia Br●via diriguntur subscriptis, viz. etc. unless it be where there are different Clauses in some of the writs varying from those to the first Bishops; which Clauses (recited at large) I have here printed, when they occur in the Rolls.  
13. That the writs of Summons to Parliaments directed to the Archbishops and Bishops are of various forms, differing very often one from the other, not only in their recitals of the particular causes of summoning them; but in sundry special and unusual clauses, as I have touched in the recital of them, and shall more largely insist on in my General Observations in the close of this Part of my Register. That the writs of Summons to Councils and Convocations, issued to the Archbishops and Bishops are usually different one from another, not only in form and speciale Clauses, but likewise from the writs of Summons to Parliaments, unless where the word Concilium is used for a Parliament: There being no Praemunientes, etc. in any writs of Summons to Councils of State, but only to Parliaments, and that not always, but a● the King's pleasure: and no general Summons of all the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, and Prior's holding by Barony to all Councils of State; but only of such and so many of them as the King and his Council thought meet, when as they were usually all summoned to Parliaments.  
14. That the writs of Summons to Convocations of the Clergy, were directed only to the two Archbishops or their Vicar's Generals, to summon all the Bishops, Abbots, Priors and Clergy of their respective Provinces to them, not always on a certain day or place as in writs for Parliaments and Great Councils, but at such time (or place) as they deemed most convenient, without any particular writs at all issued to any other Bishops, Abbots, Priors, or Clergy men, as in Summons to Parliaments and Great Councils: where though they had all particular writs of Summons, yet the King oft times issued special writs to the two Archbishops, to summon all the Bishops, Abbots, Priors and Clergy, within the several Dioceses of their Provinces to appear at the Parliaments, Councils, and Convocations, to prevent all negligence, defects, or faylers in their Summon●, and excuses for not appearing, whereby the affairs of the King and kigdom might be prejudiced.  
15. That ●he number of Abbots and Priors summoned to our Parliaments, was sometimes more, sometimes less, as I have briefly touched, relating their number in the gross for brevity sake; where I find them particularly mentioned in the Rolls. The names of those Abbots and Priorr who were ordinarily or extraordinarily summoned to Parliaments and Parliamentary Councils, with the reasons of this incertainty in their numbers by subsequent exemptions, because they held no Lands by Barony or Knight's service from the King, but only in Frankalmoigne, or by act of special grace, or through vacancy by death, or otherwise; those who please may read at large in Mr. Seldens Titles of Honour, Book 2. ch. 5. Sect. 22, 23, 25. p. 732. to 735. and more particularly in the ensuing Alphabetical Table of their names and Summons.  
I shall here only present the Readers with 3. Kalendars of their names out of the Clause Rolls, as I find them there recorded.  
The 1. List is that in the Clause Roll of 49 H. 3. m. 11▪ dorso in Cedula. where the writ at large being directed to R. etc. Episcopo Dunolm, etc. (as it is here transcribed, p. 5, 6.) immediately after the writ, this Catalogue of the Bishops, Abbots, Priors, and Deans names summoned to it follows, in this form.

16. That in the writs of Summons to Abbots and Priors, the writs are very seldom recited at large to any of them, unless in 27 E. 1. d. 9 and towards the latter end of the reign of King Edward the 3. where some writs to the first Abbot named in the lists of Summons, are entered at large; the rest only recited with an, etc. or not mentioned at all, but only thus, Eodem modo mandatum est, etc. or Consimiles Literae, or Consimilia Brevia diriguntur Abbatibus et Prioribus subscriptis; entered in the Roll, with a Catalogue of their names subscribed under it.  
17. In ancient times the first writ that is entered, for the most part issued to the Abbot of S. Augustine's in Canterbury, (in which Rolls there is no certain order observed in the Abbots and Prior's names and summons.) sometimes the Abbot of S. Alban, now and then the Abbot of Glastonbury; sometimes some other Abbots are first named in the List of Summons, and one name frequently praeponed, & then postponed after another, as the Register was pleased to enter them in the Rolls: But from 1 H. 4. to the end of King Ed. 4. the first writ entered is, Abbati de Burgo Sancti Petri. As for the Priors, they are for the most part registered after the Abbots; now and then but rarely, before the Abbots, and frequently intermixed with them: sometimes one Prior is placed before another in some Summons, which was named last in other Lists: few Lists agreeing in the order of their names, unless that of 23 E. 1. d. 4. and 24 E. 1. d. 7. which exactly accord in all things, from which that of 28 E. 1. d. 3. & 17. doth somewhat vary in the order, though not in the number of their names.  
18. That the absence of the Archbishops, Bishops or other Great men from, and no● coming to Parliaments an● Great Council● when summoned, did many times hinder the proceedings in them, and caus● them to be prorogued or adjourned, to the public prejudice▪ yet upon particular necessary occasions for the kingdom's defence and ●afety, their personal presence was dispensed wi●h, and their Summons superseded; wi●nesse this memorable writ to the Bishop of Durham, Claus. 6 E. 2. m. 12. dorso.  
Rex, Venerabili in Christo Patri R. eadem gratia Dunolm. Ep●s●opo salut●m. Li●●t nuper Vobis mandaver●mus quod omn●bus aliis praetermissis essetis ad Nos tertia Dominica Quadragesimae prox▪ fu●ur, apud Westm, ibidens Nobiscum ●t cum Praelatis ●t Proceribus Regni nostri super diversis negotiis Nos et Statum ejusd●m Regni nostri tangentibus tractaturi, vest umque consilium impensur●▪ Pre securitate tamen Custodiae et maj●r● tuitione part●um vestrarum contr● Scotos inimicos ●t Rebels nostros, vobis man▪ damu●, quod à partibus praedictis vos nu●●atenus ●●anf●ratis, sed Procuratorem vestrum sufflo●●nter instructum addictos diem et locum mittatis, ad consent ●nd, hi●s qu● tun● ib●dem per Nos ●t dictos Pr●latos, ●t Proc●re●●●n●●geris ordinari.

And this other observable writ of Supersedeas to the Bishops of Durham, and Karliol, with other Lords and Great men summoned to Parliament, thus recorded, in Claus. 12 R. 2. m. 42. dorso.

Consimilia Brevia diriguntur Henr. de Percy Comiti Northumb. johanni de Nevill de Raby, excepto ultimo Clauso. Ita semper.  
Of which see more in my Observations on the next Section, and here p. 51, 52.  
19 That some writs to particular Bishops, varied in certain special clauses now and then from those issued to other Bishops at the self same time, upon special occasions, and in the 
* See p. 7, 8. 51, 52.  form of the Praemunientes, etc.  
20. That as there are some single writs of Summons to Bishops, or Archbishops entered in the Clause Rolls now and then, without any to the Temporal Lords or Barons registered together with them; So there are some writs of Summons to and prorogations of Parliaments issued to Temporal Lords in some Rolls, without any to Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors or Ecclesiastical Lords entered with them, though no doubt they had the like writs of Summons and Prorogations, although not registered, as the bodies of the writs do manifest.  
21. That the writs issued to the Archbishops, Bishop's Abbots, Priors and Clergy, run usually in this form▪ Vobis mandamus quod in fide et dilectione quibus nobis tenemini, etc. not in fide et homagio. But the writs to the Earls, Barons and Temporal Lords: though they sometimes retain the self same words in fide et diloctione, yet for the most part they run thus; quoth in fide & homagio, or ligeantia, quibus nobis t●n●mini, etc. or in homagio, ●id● et dilectione: or in homag●o et lige●ntia; homagio, or ligeantia being put in the place of dilection●, or added to fide et dilectione quibus nobis tenemini.  
22. That the writs to the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots and Priors, for the most part, observe this stile; Vobiscum, ac cum caeteris Praelatis, Magnatibus et Proceribus, etc. in all clauses of the writ; The writs to the Earls, & Temporal Lords, Vobiscum, ac cum Praelatis et caeteris Magnatibus et Proceribus, or caeteris Magnatibus, or Proceribus, only: cae●eris being ever placed before Praelatis, in the writs to the Bishops, Abbots, but after Praelatis, and before Magnatibus or Proc●ribus, in all writs to the Temporal Lords, because of different Orders▪ the Prelates no● being Magnates or Proc●r●s by birth, or in their own right, but only the Temporal Lords; and they being not Praelati, or Ecclesiastical Peers by order or function, but only the Bishops, Abbots, Priors, and other Ecclesiastical▪ Barons.  
23. That the number of Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors and Ecclesiastical persons summoned by writs to our Parliaments, was for the most part equal to, and many times far exceeding the number of the Temporal Lords, & Barons; as you may easily discern by computing and comparing their numbers in this, with those of the Temporal Lord in the ensuing Section. In the Parliamunt of 49 H. 3. the number of the Prelates, Abbots, and Spiritual persons summoned by writ, was 120. the number of Temporal Lords, but 23. Anno 23 E. 1. d. 9 the number of the Spiritual Lords summoned was 77; of the Temporal Lords but 63. And dors. 3, 4. the Spiritual Lords summoned to another Parliament that year, amounts to 90. the Temporal Lords only to 50. In 24 E. 1. d. 7. the Spiritual Lords summoned, were in all 91. the Temporal but 43. yet in other Parliaments the Temporal Lords exceeded the Spiritual, as in 27 E. 1. d. 18. the Spiritual Lords were 58. the Temporal 90. but in the next Parliament 28 E. 1. m. 3. the Spiritual Lords summoned were 102. the Temporal only 89. Their differences in number in other Parliaments I shall for brevity sake omit, only in most summons under King H. 4, 5, & 6. during these King's absence and wars in France, (when most of the Earls and Temporal Lords were in actual service in the wars) the Spiritual Lords were near double to the Temporal.  
24. That the first writ wherein I find any mention of, and provision for the Defence of the Church of England, is in 6 E. 2. here, p. 20. the next is in 11 E. 3. p. 39, & 40. 12 E. 3. p. 42. & 14 E. 3. p. 46. After which in the writs of 18 E. 3. p. 50. 31 E 3. p. 60, 61, 62. 46 E. 3. p. 67. 49 E. 3. p. 69. 1 R. 2. p. 69, 70, 72. and in most succeeding them, Defensionem Ecclesiae Anglicanae, Salvationem et defensionem Ecclesiae Sanctae; Et ●oc sicut salvationem et defensionem Ecclesiae Sanctae diligitis, were usually inserted into the writs of Summons, as well to Parliaments as Convocations, and in writs to the Temporal Lords and Sheriffs, as they were in writs to the Clergy, it being one principal end of summoning Parliaments and Convocations.  
25. That sometimes the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors were 
* Here, p. 20, 27, 29, 33, 35, 36, 41, 55, 56, 62, 64, 65, 71, 72, etc.  authorized by the writs themselves to make Proctors, or Proxies to supply their places; other times prohibited to make any Proctors or Proxies at all, but peremptorily enjoined to appear in person, without any excuse, or Proctor to supply their absence. But the Deans, Chapters, Archdeacon's, Priors and Clergy of every Diocese by a special clause of Praemunientes, etc. in the writs to the Archbishops and Bishops, and by second writs to the Archbishops, were summoned the Deans, Prior's and Archdeacon's by themselves, their Chapters by one, and the Clergy of each Diocese, Quod per duos Procuratores idon●os p●enam et sufficientem potestatem ab ipsis Capitulis et Clero habentes, dictis die et loco intersint, ad fac●end. & consentiend. hiis, quae tun● ibidem de Com: Consilio regni nostri, divina favent● clementia co●tig●rit ordinari. Amongst others, the Bishop of 
* Here p. 7, 8.  Bath and Wells was particularly enjoined Praemunientes Priorem et Capitulum Bathon. et Decanum et Capitulum Wellen▪ Ecclesiarum suarum, etc. quod idem Prior et D●canus in propriis personis suis, & dicta Capitula per unum Procuratorem idoneum, etc. una nobiscum inter sint, ad▪ etc. Hereupon the Prior of Bath when sick appeared not in person, but by a Proctor, and the Chapter of Bath by one or more Proctor's, specially chosen and authorized by their Letters of Procuration under their Seals; Which Letters of Procuration, I find entered in the ancient Parchment Leaguer Book of the Priory of Bath in sundry forms in the reign of King Edward the 1. which I shall here insert, for their rarity; and because they will inform us, what ●ull and sufficient power other Priors, Deans, Chapters, and the Clergy of each Diocese, (as also the Spiritual Lords when absent, and authorized to make Proxies,) gave to their Procurators; and in what forms other Letters of Procuration were made in former times, of which I find only one printed in 
Titles of Honour, p. 731, 73●.  Mr. Selden.  
The first of these Procurations runs in this manner, being directed to the King himself:  
Serenissimo Domino suo, Domino Edwardo, Dei gratia, illustri Regi Angliae, Domino Hiberniae, et Duci Aquitan●ae, sui devoti Thomas Prior, et Capil: Bathoniensis Ecclesiae, salutem, et debitam cum orationibus assiduis reverentiam et fidelitatem. Ad tractandum▪ ordinandum et faciendum una Vobiscum et caerer●s Praelatis et Proceribus, et aliis Regni incolis, in praesenti Convocatione Generali ap●d Westm. die Dominica proxima post festum S. Martini, pro diversis Regni negotiis convenientibus, dilectum in Christo Con●ratrem, et Conprofessum nostrum Fra●rem W. de Hampt●n, ●ostrum facimus, ordinamus, et constituimu● PROCURATOREM per praesentes, plenam et liberam po●estatem eidem in hac parte conceden●es. In cujus rei testimonium sigillum, Capituli nostri praesentibus est appensum. Datum in Capitulo nostro Bathon: die Mercurii prox. ante festum S. Martini. Anno great. 1295. (A●. 23 Ed. 1.)  
There is another Letter of Procuration to this W. d● Hampton, made by the Sub Prior and Chapter of Bath the same year in the same words with the former, except in this variation and addition; Et aliis Regni incolis in hac instanti Convocatione generali apud Westm. die Dominica prox. ante festum Sancti Andreae Apoli, etc. PROCURATOREM LEGITIMUM per praesentes: Dan●es eidem, etc. (as before) omnia nostro nomin● facienda quae Nos faceremus si in Convocatione memora●a praesentes esse possemus. In c●j●s, etc. ut supra. Datum in Capit. nostro Bathon: die Sanctae Celiciae Virgins & Martyris. Anno gr. 1295.  
Anno 24 E. 1. I find this form of Procuration by the Subprior and Chapter of Bath directed to the Archbishop of Canterbury.

In the 27. year of King Edward 1. there is this Procuration made in another form.

There is another Procuration of the selfsame date made by the Subprior and Chapter of Bath, directed to the said Archbishop with the selfsame Preface, to tanto Patri: and then Vestrae Sanctae Paternitati notum fa●●mus per praesentes, quod Nos ad tractandum, providendum, ordinandum super ut●litatibus Ecclesiae promovendis, e● aliis ●rtioulis de quibus in vestrae Paternitatis mandato plenior fit ment●o, et ad consentiendum hiis quae oportuna et expedientia videbuntur; dilectum nobis in Christo Fra●rem Rober●um de Clapcote nostrum Commonachum nostrum Procuratorem facimus et constituimus loco nostri, ad faciendum omnia 〈◊〉 singula quae verus et legitimus Procurator fac●r● d●bet et consuevit.

The same year on the first Lord's day in Lent, I meet with another Procuration of this Prior in a different form from the precedent.

There is the like Procuration of the s●me date made to him by the Prior and Chapter of Bath in all their names, and in the same words.  
About the same year, the Sub Prior and Chapter of Bath made this form of Procutation, entered in their Le●ger Book.

Statute Books, as well as Parliament, and Statute Rolls; that the King and Temporal Lords and Commons in Parliament could not legally impose any Aids, Subsidies or Taxes whatsoever on the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors, Deans, Chap●ers, Archdeacon's, and inferior Clergy o● England, without their own special Grants and Consents in their Convocations; it being contrary to the Great Charters of Henry the 1. King John, and Henry the 3. Chap. 1. yea to the Freedom, Rights, Liberties of the Church confirmed by them, and to all other Acts confirming Magna Charta, and to a particular Act, Rot. Parl. anno 8 H. 4. ●. 36. exempting them from making Contributions with the Laity. Therefore they cannot do it now, upon the self same grounds, they having as full, as large an interest in their Rights, freedoms, Libe●ties, and those Grand Charters, Statutes confirming them, as any of the Laity have in theirs: Yet when they obstinately refused to grant▪ King Edward the first a necessary Aid for the defence of the Realm in two successive Parliaments one after the other, against their allegiance and duty, 
d Walsi●gham, Hist. Angl. p. 34, 35, 36. See before, p. 8. See my Plea for the Lords, p. 262, 263.  only because Pope Boniface by his Constitution had prohibited under pain of excommunication, Ne Talliae vel Exactiones à Clero per seculares Principes quocunque modo exigentur, vel eis solvantur de rebus Ecclesiae: the King thereupon did put them out of his protection: to redeem which, many of the Clergy by themselves, and many of them by Mediators gave the King the fifth part of their goods, notwithstanding the Pope's Inhibition; which is thus related by Matthew Westminster, Anno 1296. p. 407, 408.  
Die Sancti Hillarii, celebravit Archiepiscopus Concilium suum cum Coepiscopis suis Suffraganeis Londini in Ecclesia Sancti Pauli. Quibus tractantibus per dies octo super postulatione regia, non invenerunt iter rectum, nec modum exclusivae sententiae, si aliqui vel quae●ito colore, vel aliquo titulo quippiam contulissent, etiam si plurimi clerici, aulici, curiale●que accessi●●ent, qui postulatis consilium dederan● & favorem. Quae omnia Regi per Episcopos, aliósve nuncios, font relata. Qui statim mutatus in crudelem, perversa regali aequalitate in tyrannidem, licentiatis suis famulis, obviantium cle●icorum religiosorumque virorum, quasi modo hostili, equitaturas ●ibi arripere meliores, prohibitis insuper placitatoribu●, in lege sua peritis, coram Baronibus de Scaccario, seu ante quemvis ●lium Justiciarium secularem, pro personis Ecclesiasticis allegare, Ecclesiasticos ministros censuit sua pace in●ignos. Mandavit etiam singulis ordinatis, sponte offerre sibi suorum proventuum quintam partem, a●t invitè cedere omnibus bonis suis. Huic mandato primitus obtemperaverunt quidam ●onsorati, in curia regali praelati, in cura verò animarum Pilati manifesti, ut inducerent pari modo animos caeterorum. Quo facto, seisita sunt protinus per manus Vicecomitum omnia bona clericorum mobilia & immobilia, super laicum feodum inventa, a●qu● fisco regio titulata, cum superabundanti molestia suis ablatis libertatibus, q●as praedecessores reges, Christianitatis conservatores, Ecclesiis contulerant, authores bonorum. Et quod nequius est ferendum, appreciabantur ipsorum facultates, emptoribus quantocius expo●endae, nec securi audebant clerici equitare, nisi in majori conventu propter militum in cl●ricos violentiam, à rege licentia data. Sed & omni● bona Archiepiscopi, mobilia & immobi●ia, capta sunt in manu regis. Ipse quidem sustinuit patientè●. Ig●●ur Clero si●ut supradictum est passo in corpore, pas●us est & Rex in animo. Hinc dolor et metus omnium Praelatorum. Hi●●mque in perplexitate maxima constituti sunt, ut si quicquam concederent, sententiam excommunicationis incurrerent ipso facto, et si non darent, non effugerent immisericordes manus ipsorum praedonum. His madefacti adversitatibus, pro se ipsis anxii, pro grege sibi commisso inco●solabiliter moestificati, tanquam non habente alimoniam, ingruente fame, necessario seculum reperere quaesierunt, protectionem regis facultatibus suis, ratioci●io magno, redemptis.  
Yet notwithstanding all the Clergy procured special Absolutions from this Po●e, from that Excommunication they conceived they had incurred by this their Aid granted to the King against his Constitution, though done only through force, and such fear as might happen even to a constant man, as I observe by certain Instruments of Absolution, remembered by none of our Historians, but registered in the Leaguer Book of the Priory of Bath; out of which I have transcribed them, as not unworthy public knowledge.

There is another absolution from this excommunication granted almost in the like form and words by the Archbishop of Cant. to jordanus Vicar of W●ston, who made a Procuration to another Clerk to request and receive it in his behalf; quia gravi corporis agritudine perpetua detentus ad v●stram venerabil●m praesentiam accedere non valens. By which it is evident, that every Clergyman and religious person whatsoever from the highest to the lowest, who through force or fear contributed any aid to the King, against this Antimonarchical Constitution of Pope Boniface the 8. was excommunicated, interdicted for it, and forced to Petition the Pope and his Penitentiaries, to be absolved from the same; and that only upon their Oaths and caution given to yield obedience always to the Popes and Church of Rome's mandates for the future, and to undergo such penance as the Pope should please to inflict upon them for what was passed; yet thi● is styled, a dealing mercifully with them. After which Oath a●d absolution, An. 1300, when as the Temporal Lords and Commons granted the King the 15. part of their goods for the Confirmation of the Great Char●er and their Liberties; 
* Mar. Westm. Anno 1300. 1301. p. 416▪  Robertus Archiepiscopus Cantuar. pro Clero nihil voluit concedere, neque de temporalitate annexa Ecclasiae, sine licentiasummi Pontificis special; yet the Pope the next year usurped and received from him & them the Tenth of all their Ecclesiastical goods for 3. years, against their wills and the Kings too. Such vassals than were the English Clergy to the Popes; as of late years they have been in another kind to all arbitrary Committees, New Tax-masters and Governors, who not only tax them at their pleasures without their consents, but eject, suspend, silence them from preaching, administering the Sacraments, or instructing children as Schoolmasters, in Public or Private, without any legal cause, trial, or proceedings, against all the Great Charters and Statutes for maintenance of their Liberties and Freeholds in their Benefices, they being mere tenants at will both of their Ministry and Livings, the only means to make them

A most rare, useful Alphabetical Table of all the Abbots, Ma●ters, and Priors of Religious Orders, to whom any particular Writs of Summons to our Parliaments or Great Councils issued from Anno 49 H. 3. to 23 E. 4. extant in the Clause Rolls and Lists of Summons in the Tower of London, with the several years of each King's reign wherein they were summoned: If they (or others) were twice or oftener summoned in any year before R. 2. then the several dorses of the Clause Rolls that year, are expressed after the year d. for dorse, and the number of it next ensuing it in a parenthesis, if but once, the figure for that year is only mentioned; the dorse of the Clause Roll for that year, you may readily find in the writs thereof mentioned in the precedent Section; and where were 2.

By this Alphabetical exact Table it is apparent,  
1. That the total Number of the Abbots at any times summoned to Parliaments and Great Councils of State by special Writs and Memorials entered in the Clause Rolls, was 122. And the total sum of Priors and Masters of Religious Orders thus summoned, 41. in all 163. besides the 5 Deans, and the Official of the Court of Canterbury and Dean of the Arches.  
2. That of all this numerous multitude of Abbots, Priors, and Masters of Religious Orders thus summoned at several times upon particular reasons and occasions, there were only 25 Abbots constantly summoned towards the latter end of King Edward the 3. his reign, and the beginning of Richard the 2d. to the end of King Edward the 4th, and the dissolution of Monasteries; to wit, the Abbots of Abingdon, St. Alban, St. Augustine's Canterbury, Bardeny, de Bello, de Burgo Sancti Petri, Cirencester, Colecester, Croyland, St. edmond's Bury, Evesham, Glaston, Gloucester, Hida, Hulmo, Malmesbury, St. mary's of York, Rading, Ramesy, Salop, Seleby, Thorney, Waltham, Westminster and Winchecombe; And two Priors only, namely of Coventre, and of the Hospital of S. john of jerusalem in England.  
3. That 13. of these 122. Abbots, and 27. of these Priors, were summoned only but once; 4. of these Abbots and 1. of these Priors but twice; 3. of these Abbots and 3. Prior's only thrice; 6. Abbots and 2. Priors but 4. times; 17. Abbots but 5. times, others 6. 7. 8. 9 or 10. times summoned, and no more, then totally omitted out of the Summons ever after.  
4ly, That some Abbots and Priors summoned to very many Parliaments, and Great Councils, were yet afterwards omitted out of the Summons, and never called by writ unto them afterwards. For instance, the Abbots of St. Augustine's Bristol were summoned to 16. of Barlinges to 25. of Cumbe to 21. the Abbots of Croxton to 22. D●●ontibus to 25. Of ●urneyes to 23. Of Hales to 21. Of Melsa to 23. Of Mira Valle to 21. Of Osency to 39 Of Thornton to 43. the Master and Prior of the Order of Semplingham to 29. the Prior of Lews or Lewes to 61. and the Prior of Spalding to 41 Parliaments and Great Councils under Henry the 3. Edward 1. 2. or 3. and yet they were never summoned to any Parliaments after King Edward the 3. The Prior of St. james Northampton summoned once under Henry the 3d. being Summoned Ann. 12 E. 2. was (upon his Petition prosecuted by his Proctor) discharged from any future summons, and lest out of the Rolls after 14 E. 2. because Non tenet de Rege per Baroniam, nec 〈◊〉 Capite; sed tantum in puram et perpetuam eleemosynam, nec praedecessores sui unquam in Cancellaria i● rotulati fuerunt, nisi ad stimulationem aliquorum malignorum▪ possent alias, p●r casum irrotulari●, et per consequens citari▪ as you may read at large in 
a Titles of Honor. p. 731. to 735.  Mr. Sclden. The Prior of Bridlington was summoned 9 times under Henry the 3. and Edward 2. and then in 14 Ed: 2. there was this entry made in the Roll, Nihil tenet de Rege, and no future Summons issued to him afterwards: The Abbot of Leicester was summoned to no less than 50 Parliaments and Great Councils under Henry 3. and Ed. 1, 2, 3. before 25 E. 3. yet after all these Summons there is this entry made upon his 51 summons, Ann. 25 E. 3. (Here, p. 6.) Abbas Leicestr, cancellatur, quia habet Cartam Regis quod non compellatur venira ad Parliamentum: The Grounds of which discharge are thus expressed in the Charter of his exemption from future summons granted upon his Petition in Parliament.

The Abbot of Tavistock was summoned to 5 Parliaments and Parliamentary Councils under H. 3.

Sir Edward Cook in his 4. Institutes, p. 45. affirms this Patent to be void in Law; but upon such a poor reason, as will made all Temporal Lords, Barons, Earls, and Duke's Patents likewise void, if they hold not by Barony; and I conceive it to be good in Law, upon consideration of the premises, that our Kings did at their pleasure, without any special Patents of Creation, summon what Abbots and Priors they thought meet to their Parliaments, and omitted, discharged them at their pleasures, as the premises plentifully manifest beyond contradiction.  
5. It is most demonstratively and experimentally evident by this Table: That the Kings bare writs of summons of Abbots, Priors, Masters of Religious Orders, Deans, and other Clergymen not holding by Barony, and their sitting in Parliaments and Great Councils, and debating, consulting, advising with the King and the rest of the Abbots, Priors, Bishops, Earls, Lords and Barons of the Realm in Parliament according to the tenor of the writs of Summons (issued to them all in the selfsame form) did neither really or actually ennoble either them, nor their successors (for then by 
d 4 Instir. p. 1.  Sir Edward Cooks own doctrine) they ought, ex debito justitiae, to have been summoned constantly during life, and their Successors after them, when they had been called by writ, actually sat in one, two, much more if in three or four Parliaments; when most of them who were summoned sat only in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8. Parliaments and no more; and neither they nor their Successors were ever after summoned; yea some of ●hem after above 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60. summons to, and Sessions in Parliaments under several Kings, have been afterwards discharged, or left out of the writs of Summons, as no Barons nor Peers of the Realm, because they held not by Barony of the King: Therefore their writs of Summons and Session did only make them but momentany and quasi temporary Peers, or Spiritual Lords pro hac vice only, when and whiles they were summoned to, and sat in any particular Parliament or great Councils amongst the rest of the Prelates and Lords, not after they were dissolved, when both their temporary. Pe●●●ge and Lordships (if their writ● and Session's made them Lords or Peer● pro tempore,) expired with the Parliaments: And by the selfsame ground, reason, the King's summons of any Knights, Esquires, or other Laymen to Parliament by a general wri●●, who held not by Barony, without any special Clause creating them Barons by writs or Parents, and their actual sitting in Parliament, can neither ennoble themselves, nor make them Lords, Barons, or Peers of the Realm for life, much less their heirs males in fee, or for perpetuity after their deceases, but only make them quasi Peers, or Great men, or rather Assistants to, and joint Counselors with the Lords in Parliament pro tempore, so long as the Parliaments to which they are summoned and in which they sit continue, but no longer; as I have 
e In my Plea for the Lords, Epist. to the Reader, & p. 147. to 161.  elsewhere proved, and shall further demonstratively evidence in the next Section, against Sir Edward Cooks and others mistakes therein.  
8. That our Kings by their Prerogative and royal Authority alone did upon all extraordinary occasions summon what Abbots, Priors, Religious and Ecclesiastical persons they thought meet, in the self same manner, and by the self same forms of writs, as they summoned the Bishops, Abbots, Peers and other Lords who were actual Peers and Barons of the Realm, in greater or smaller numbers as they and their Council thought mee●est; who sat, consulted, advised in Parliament, together with the King and the rest of the Lords: which royal Prerogative and Jurisdiction was never questioned, oppugned, complained or voted against in any ancient Parliaments to my knowledge; which being our King's Parliaments, yea the Grand Councils both of the King and kingdom, (as the writs of Summons and all Prologues and Acts of Parliament style them) they might thereupon lawfully summon to them what persons they deemed most fit and able to advise, assist them, and to promote, dispatch their public affairs, for their own and the kingdom's benefit, safety, defence, and common welfare; though no actual Peers, Lords, or Barons of the Realm by Patent, or Tenure; as will more fully appear by the two next Sections.  
7. This Table doth undeniably convince the forecited Memorandum (p. 34.) entered in Cl. 6 E. 3. m. 36. Istis Abbatibus et Prioribus subscriptis, non solebat scribi in aliis Parliamentis; viz. Abbati de Teukesbury, with 26 Abbots and Priors there named to be full of gross mistakes: For I find the Abbot of St. Augustine's Bristol summoned no less than 5. times before, and 11. times after 6 E. 3. and the Abbot of Bardenay no less than 33. times summoned before, and 80. times after it, being one of the Abbots constantly summoned till the 23 E. 4. and dissolution of Monasteries: the Abbot of Barlinges 25. times before it: the Abbot de Bello 30. times before, and 70. after it, being one of the 25 Abbots constantly summoned as a Baron: the Abbot of Burton upon Trent 12 times: the Prior of Bridlington 8. times, the Prior of Chester 4. times, the Abbot de Fontibus 26. the Abbot of Furneyes 23. times: the Abbot of Gerveux (Gervall, or jorvall) 13. times: the Prior of Gis●urn thrice: the Abbot of Hails 21 times: the Abbot of L●●●●nes twice: the Abbot of St. Ositha 12. time●, the Abbot of Per●hore 11. times the Abbot of Ryevall 14. times: the Master and Prior of the Order of Sempingham 29. times, the Abbot of Stratford 12. times, all of them before 6 E. 3. the Abbot of Tavistock. thrice before, and twice after i●: the Abbot of Tham● once, the Abbot of Teukesbury 5. times, and the Abbot of Wardon 4. times before it: Only to the Abbots of Boghland, Langedon and W●alley therein mentioned I find no writs of Summons in any Rolls, unless Boghland, be meant of Bocland (as I conceive it is) who was twice summoned; and Langedon for Lavedon who was 5. times; and whaley for Wave ley, who was 9 times summoned by writ before this Memorandum; entered by some ignorant Clerk, who had not well examined the former Clause rol●s and lists of Summons.  
8. That the Bishops, Abbots and Priors summoned constantly and of right to our Parliaments and Great Councils by writ, were thus summoned to them, not as they were Bishops, Abbots, or Priors, but in respect of their

Responsio. Ad hoc respondebatur, quod non debent pugnare cum gladio materiali, sed spiti●uali, scilicet cum lachrymis & orationibus humilibus & devotis. 
Nota.  Et quod propter beneficia sua tenentur pacem manu tenere, non bellum. Et quod BARONIAE EORUM ab eleemosynis puris stabiliuntur: unde servitium militare non debent, nisi certum, nec novum incipient. Sextus. Item petitum est, ut Clerus communiter a●quietaret novem millia marcarum, quas Episcopus Roffensis Laurentius, Episcopus Bathoniensis Willielmus, & Abbas Westmonasterii Richardus, mutuo receperunt à mercatoribus domini Papae in curia Romana, quando fuerunt ibidem, pro Regiis negotiis ex●ediendis. Responsio. Ad hoc respondebatur, quod nunquam consentiebant mutuationi tanti debiti, nec unquam inde scieb●nt, unde in nullo tenentur illud adquietare. Septimus. Item petitum est ex parte Papae, ut fi●ret praedicatio in omni festinatione de cruse per totum regnum, ad expugnand●m populum, quem curia providere, vel ad crucem perpet●am redimendum. Responsio. Ad hoc respondebatur, quod populus t●rrae per bellum in magna parte perimitur, & si modo cruce signarentur, pauci vel nulli ad defensionem patriae remanerent. Unde manifestum est, quod Legatus vellet naturalem terrae progeniem exulare, ut alienigenae liberius conquirere possint terram. Octavus. Item dicebatur, quod Praelati tenebantur ad omnes petitiones, vellent nollent, propter juramentum de Coventre, ubi juraverunt quod domino Regi auxiliarentur modis omnibus, quibus possent. Responsio. Ad hoc responderunt, quod quando juramentum fecerunt, non intelligebant de alio auxilio quam Spirituali, consilioque salubri.  
By which demands and answers (not unsuitable nor unseasonable for the consideration of our present times) it is apparent; that the Clergy ought not to be taxed by the Laity for their Ecclesiastical Baronies and Temporal Lands in Parliament, but only by themselves, much less than for their Spiritualties and Benefices; and that their BARONIES held of the King, obliged them to sit and serve in Parliaments, yet did not bind them to serve the King in person in his wars; nor to foment any wars between him and his Subjects, but rather to advise him to maintain peace not wars. By Matthew Westminster's 
a Flores Histor. pars 2. p. 409.  relation, That the Archbishop of Canterbury who the year before had all his Temporalties and goods seized into the King's hands for refusing to grant a Subsidy to the King, for fear of Pope Boniface the 8. his Constitution to the contrary; together with the rest of the Clergy being put out of the King's protection upon this occasion, was this year restored to the King's grace and favour, atque REDDITA SIBI BARONIA SUA.

27, It is observable, that when any Archbishop died, after the writ of Summons to Parliament issued to him with a Praemunientes, etc. and before the return and execution thereof; the King thereupon issued a new Writ of Summons to the Guardian of the Spiritualties of the Archbishopric, with a Praemunientes to summon the Dean, Chapter, Archdeacon and Clergy of the Province, with a particular writ to the Dean and Chapter of his Church to appear at the said Parliament; as is evident by these two memorable writs in Claus. 9 E. 2. m. 20. dorso.

28 That no private Prelates and Clergy men could grant a Subsidy to bind the rest of the Clergy for the necessary defence of the Church, King, kingdom, against invading Enemies, without the general Consent of the Archbishops, and all the Clergy summoned in Convocation within their respective Provinces; as is most apparent by this memorable writ to the Archbishop of Canterbury, and the like to the Guardian of the Spiritualties of the Archbishopric of York,

SECTION II.  
Of the several writs of Summons to Parliaments and Great Councils, directed to the Temporal Lords; as The King of castle, the Prince of Wales, Dukes, Marquesses, Earls, Viscounts, Lords, Barons, and other Great men of the Lords House; whereof there are several forms and varieties; with Observations on them.  
SOme pretended Antiquaries, not well versed in our Records, in their late printed Discourses of The Antiquity of the Parliaments of England, p. 22. 24. 88 89. meeting with a Transcript of ancient writs issued to Earls, Barons and Great men holding lands of the King by Knight service, to repair to him at a certain time and place, cum equis et armis, for his defence against Enemies or Rebels in times of wars, insurrection, or danger, have injudiciously conceived these writs, to be Writs of Summons to Parliaments, or confounded them promiscuously with them; affirming; That they find these writs recorded AMONG THE PARLIAMENT ROLLS of 14. (or 15.) E. 3. and therefore thought good to remember them. When as there are ●o such writs extant in any Parliament Rolls in the Tower; nor any Writs of Summons to Parliaments or Great Councils, entered in our Parliament Rolls (as they ignorantly publish) but only in the Dorse of the Clause Rolls, quite different and distinct from the Rolls of our Parliaments, as the meanest Novice in Records can ascertain them.  
Upon the like mistake some have conceited these ensuing writs of Claus. 45 & 47 H. 3. to be writs of Summons to Parliaments and Great Councils, when as the writs themselves declare the contrary, that they were only Summons, to assist the King against Enemies and Rebels, with horses and arms, and all their power; not to counsel, advise, or grant any aids of money to him in Parliament.  

a Claus. 45 H. 3. m. 3. dorso.  Rex Willielmo de Bello Campo de Aumel, salutem. Mandamus Vobis in fide et homagio quibus Nobis tenemini firmiter injungentes, quod omnibus aliis praetermissis ad Nos sitis London in craftino Apostolorum Simonis et judae absque dilatione ulteriori, CUM EQUIS ET ARMIS, ET CUM POSSE VESTRO, tam de servitio vestro Nobis d●bito, quam de subventione amicorum vestrorum, pro quibusdam urgentibus ●●egotiis personam nostram specialiter et Statum Coronae nostrae tangentibus. Et hoc sicut de vestra fid●litate et dilectione confidentiam gerimus speciale●●ullatenus omittatis. Quia SUBVENTIONEM qu●m Nobis et Coronae nostrae praeter servicium Nobis debitum ad praesens feceritis, in consequentiam trahi nolumus, nec vobis per hoc ullo tempore derogari. Taliter vos habeatis in hac parte quod dicto die absque defalta ad Nos sitis, ita quod vobis exinde in perpetuo teneamus ad grates. Teste Rege apud Turrim London 18 die Octobris.  
Eodem modo mandatum est Phil: Basset, and 107. Barons and great men holding by knight's service, there registered by name. After which this writ ensues in the same Dorse.  
Rex Abbati de Burgo Sancti Petri, salutem. Mandamus vobis in fide et dilectione quibus Nobis tenemini firmiter injungentes, quod omnibus aliis praetermissis mittaris Nobis Servitium vestrum quod Nobis debetis; ita quod sitis ad Nos in crastino Sancti Martini absque defalto, pro quibusdam urgentibus negotiis personam nostram specialiter et statum regni nostri tangentibus. Et hoc sub debito fidelitatis qua Nobis ●enemini nullatenus omittatis. Teste ut supra.  
Eodem modo mandatum est, to 36 Abbots more, whose names are there listed in the Roll: Then follows this entry.  
Isti subscripti vocati sunt ad crastinum Apostolorum Simonis & judae CUM EQUIS ET ARMIS; Thomas de Chauro: with 16. more there named after him.  
Mandatnm est Vicecomiti Essex, quod summoneri faciat omnes illos de Honoribus de Redleg et Castro Baynard, et de Hundredo de Rochfort, quod veniant ad Regem ad ●undem diem cum servicio suo Regi debito.  
The like writs issued to divers others in this and other Membrana●s of this Roll of 45 H. 3. to aid the King against the Barons then in rebellion against him, and reduce them to their obedience, as is evident by this writ to the Earl of Flanders, though not particularly expressed in the precedent writs.

Quiae Magnates nostri NOBIS ALIQUANDIU REBELS EXTITERINI, propter quod, nisi citius resipiscant, aliud consilium Nos opponere oportebit, dilectionem vestram requirimus et rogamus, quatinus taliter vobis providere velitis, quod ad Nos centum Milites et tot servientes ad arma bene munitos Nobis mi●tere possitis: Taliter vos habentes in hac parte, quod specialiter vobis teneamur ad gratias. Teste Rege apud Windesor. 22 die Augusti.  
In 47 H. 3. there issued these ensuing writs to sundry Noblemen and others to aid the King against the Welshmen then in rebellion against him, to suppress their Rebellion, and reduce them to obedience.  

c Claus. 47 H. 3. m. 7. dorso.  Rex, Rogeto de Bigot, Comiti Nor●●: & Mariscallo Angliae, salutem.

Teste Rege apud Westm. 25. die Maii.  
Eodem modo mandaium est to 133. Nobles and others, whose names are there recorded.  
The 
d See claus. 24 H. 1. d. 2. cl. 25 E. 1. d. 3. 7, 8, 14. Schedula. cl. 28 E. 1. d. 11. 15. claus. 29 E. 3. d. 11, 12, 13, 16. claus. 8 R. 2. d. 3.  like writs of Summons against the Scots, Welsh, French and other Enemies and Rebels, frequently occur in the Clause Rolls of King john, Henry 3. and Edward 1, 2, 3. Rich. 2. and other Kings: which have no Analogy with writs of Summons to Parliaments or Great Councils, wherewith some Ignorant Antiquaries would conjoin them as Homogeneal; which I thought ●it to premise, to avoid all mistakes of this kind.  
It is evident by this Clause in the writs i●●ued to the Bishops, Claus. An. 6. johannis Regis m. 3. dorso. (forecited, p. 2, 3.) vestrum expedit habere consilium et ALIORUM MAGNATUM terrae nostrae QUOS AD DIEM ILLUM ET LOCUM FECIMUS CONVOCARI: that King john issued forth writs of Summons to the Temporal as well as Spiritual Lords, to summon them to the Parliamentary Council then held at London, though neither the form of the writs by which they were then summoned, nor any list of their names be entered in that or any other Roll now extant. And by this Clause in the writ of Summons to the Archbishop of York Claus. 26 H. 3. m. 13. dorso: ad tractandum Nobiscum una cum CAETERIS MAGNATIBUS NOSTRIS QUOS SIMILITER FECIMUS CONVOCARI; it is most apparent, that the Temporal Lords and great men were likewise called to the Parliamentary Great Council then assembled at London by writ, though there be no entry of those writs, nor catalogue of their names in that or any other Rolls to be found, but only the single writ to one Archbishop.  
All the ancientest writs of Summons of our Temporal Lords to Great Councils being utterly lost through negligence, or perished through the rust or consumption of time, the very first writ of Summons to them, and Calendar of their names now remaining, is that of 49 H. 3. dors. 11. Cedula already recited at large, p. 5, 6. one and the selfsame form of writ verbatim, being then directed both to the Temporal and Spiritual Lords, though they usually differed in after times in some special clauses. After the Eodem modo mandatum est; and Catalogue of the Bishops, abbot's, Priors, Deans, and Ecclesiastical persons names then summoned to that Parliamentary Council by the selfsame writs, there followed this list of the Temporal Lords and Barons.  
Item in forma praedicta mandatum est COMITIBUS et aliis subscriptis: that: de Wodestok. Comiti Leicestr. Comiti Gloucestr. Com. Norff: & Mariscallo Angliae, Comiti Oxon. Comiti D●rby, Radulpho Cameys, Rogero de Sancto johanne, Hugoni le Despencer Justic. Angliae, johanni Filio johannis, Willo. de Munchensey, Nicho. de Segrave, johi, de Vescy, Rado: Basset de Drayton, Henr. de Hasting. Galfrido de Lucy, Roberto de Ros. johanni de Eyvil, Ade de Novo-Mercato, Waltero de Colevyll, Willielmo Maryun, Rogero Bertram, Rado. Basset de Sapcote, Gilberto de Gaunt.  
This Parliamentary Council was summoned soon after the great bloody battle at Evesham (wherein the 
f Mat. Paris, Mat. Westm. Walsingham, Holinshed, Daniel, Speed, Polychronicon, Grafton Ann. 1265. My Plea for the Lo●ds, p. 258, 259, 260.  Barons who opposed K. Henry were totally routed, Simon de Montford their General, and many others of of them slain in the field, and the rest scattered) to settle the peace and tranquillity of the Realm as the writ informs us; the most of the Barons and Great men upon on this occasion being omitted out of the Summons, though many more Abbots, Priors, and Clergymen were summoned to it, than to any other succeeding Parliament whatsoever, to supply the places of the Barons then in actual rebellion, and give the greater reputation to this Assembly, as I apprehended.  
The 2. writ of summons to the Earls and Temporal Lords, is this of Claus. 23 E. 1. m. 9 dorso. which I shall transcribe at large: though entered with an etc. in the Roll, with reference to the Bishop's writs, ut supra.

I shall begin within this Memorable writ to Roger de Mortymer, Claus: 9 E 2▪ m. 20 dorso 
De interessendo Parliamento.   
Rex dilecto et fideli suo Rogero de Mortuo-Mare de Wygmore, salutem; Cum vos tempore quo Parliamentum nostrum usque Lincoln: in Quind●na Sancti Hilary proxy futur: summoneri fecimus in partibus Hiberniae fuissetis, per quod Nos vobis non 〈◊〉 simus ad interessendum dicto Parliamento; ac vos a dictis par●ibus Hiberniae usque regnum nostrum jam, ut accepimus, accessistis; ideo vobis mandamus in fide et homagio quibus nobis tenemini firmiter injungentes, quod si ad dictas partes Hibe●niae citra▪ dictum Parliamentum non essetis regressuri, tunc eidem Parliamento nostro dictis die et loco modis omnibus personaliter intersiti●, super negotiis Nos et statum Regni nostri rang●ntibus, pro quibus Parliamentum nostrum mandavimus convo●ari, Nobiscum et cum Magnatibus et Proceribus regni nostri tractaturi, vestrumque consilium impensuri. Et hoc nullo modo omittatis. T. Rege apud Clipston 17 die Januarii.  
This Roger de Mortymer (a Baron of this Realm, as is evident by former Summons to him) being absent in Ireland when the writs of Summons to this Parliament first issued, was thereupon left out of the original writs and Lists of Summons; but the King being informed that he was returned into England, thereupon sent this special writ of Summons to him bearing date the 17 of january, (full 3. months after the first writs of Summons dated the 16 of October before) entered in another dorse apart from the other writs: His absence in Ireland, yea and return thither, about the public affairs after this writ issued, before this Parliament sat, in the Kings and his Counsils opinions, being a sufficient ground to excuse his absence from Parliament, and to send no writ of Summons to him into Ireland. And if English Peers absence or residence in Ireland, be a just, legal ground to exempt them from summons to a Parliament held in England, much more than must Irish Peers and Lords, who are no Lords or Barons at all in England, be totally exempted from all writs of Summons to the Parliaments of England, both in respect of their remoteness from England, of the great charge and danger in crossing the Seas to repair to them, and because they are obliged neither by their tenors, nor Patents, to resort to any English Parliaments, but only to the Parliaments held in Ireland, where only they are Peers and Lords of Parliament, and because they cannot attend in two places at once, if a Parliament should be summoned in England and Ireland on or near the selfsame time: Of which more hereafter in its proper place.  
The next writ of this kind I shall communicate to you, is this I meet with Claus. Ann. 35 E. 3. m. 36. dorso.

By which writ it is apparent, 1. That if any Lord neglect or refuse to appear upon the first writ of Summons issued to him, that the King may resummon him by a second writ, as here he did these Lords. 2ly, That the not appearing in Parliament upon the first writ of Summons, through negligence, wilfulness, or without lawful excuse made for it, is a manifest contempt to the King; That no Peers summoned to Parliaments ought to depart whiles the Parliament continues, without the King's special licence; 4ly, That the not appearing of any Peer when summoned, or his departure from Parliament, without the King's special licence, is to be punished with such a heavy and deserved penalty as the other Lords sitting in Parliament shall limit and inflict, not the King himself without the Lords.  

Useful Annotations and Observations upon the precedent Writs to the Prince of Wales, King of castle and Leon, Dukes, and other Temporal Lords and Barons, and the lists of their names recorded after them.  
1. I Observe, and must inform the Readers, that in some few Clause Rolls, there are writs of Summons entered only to Earls, and other secular Lords, without any writs to Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots and Spiritual Lords, who no doubt had like writs then issued to them, though not registered in the Rolls, as the Lords writs attest.  
2. That in the Rolls where in they both are registered, the writs to the Temporal Lords are now and then entered, before those to the Archbishops, Bishops and Spiritual Lords; but most usually they follow them.  
3. That they are commonly entered both together on the selfsame dorse▪ or membrana, & their recitals, cla●ses for the most part the same in terminis; except in the Praemunientes, etc. which is peculiar to the Archbishops and Bishops writs; or in the clauses, or Homagio et ligeantia quibu, Nobi● tenemini; which is peculiar to the Temporal Lords; and never used in the writs to the Bishops, Abbots, and Ecclesiastical Lords; but in fide & 〈◊〉 quibus Nobis t●n●mini, only; which is oft times inserted into the writs to the Temporal Lords, and others of the Laity, not peculiar only to the Clergy; as in homagio & lig●antia are to the Temporally. The reason whereof I conceive to be grounded on that of Littleton in his Chapter of Homage, Sect. 86. If an Abbot or Prior, or other man of Religion (which extends to all Archbishops, Bishops, De●n, Parsons, prebend's and other Ecclesiastical bodies Politic) shall do homage to his Lord, he shall not say, JEO DEVEIGNE VOSTR & HOME (whence Homage hath its name and derivation, as all Temporal Lords and Laymen ought to do, when they do their homage to the King or other Lords) because he hath professed himself, PUR ESTRE TANT SOLEMENT LE HOME DE DE●U; But he shall 〈◊〉 say, I do Homage unto you, and to you I shall be true and faithful, and faith to you bear for the Tenements which I hold of you; In which respect, Glanvil lib. 9 c. 1, 2. Bracton●. 78. F. Britton cap. 68 & 〈◊〉. 3● cap. 16. resolve. S●●endum ●st quod 〈◊〉 liber 〈◊〉 ●asculus quam famina, Clericus et Laicus, major & minor, dum tamen electi in Episcopos; POST CONSE●R ATIONEM HOMAGIUM NON FACIUNT, quicquid ●ecerunt any, sed TANTUM FIDELITATEM. Conventus a●t●m HOMAGIUM nec faciet de jure, sicu● NE● ABBAS, NEC PRIOR, ●o quod tenent nomine alieno, scilicet nomine Ecclesiarum: as Sir Ed. Cook likewise observes in his 1. Institutes, f. 65. b. So that they doing no homage properly so styled to the King, after their consecrations, nor using the words (I become your man, if we credit L●ttleton) in making their homage as the Temporal Lords do. Thereupon (I conjecture) the writs of Summons command the Temporal Lords and Laity to appear, etc. in fide ●t homagio, et in ●ide et ligeantia quibus Nobis tenemini; but the Prelates, Spiritual Lords, and other Clergy, only in fide et dilectione, they being bound to swear fealty and Allegiance to our Kings for the Freehold Lands and Tempora●ties they held of him ●●xcept only those that hold in Frankalmoigne, as 29 E. 3. f. 38. a. Littleton Sect. 91, 92, 93. Sir Edw. Cook in hi● 1. Insti●utes on these Sections, and other Law-books resolve. For this I shall produce one memorable Record; a●●uring us, that all the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbot's, Priors and Clergy both in England and Ireland, did, and of right aught to swear fealty to the King, as well as the Temporal Lords and Commons, and prescribing Commissioners in Ireland to receive it from them;

Sir Edward Cook and others affirm, was first invented, and generally prescribed to all persons above 12 years of age, by our famous British King Arthur; who by virtue thereof, ex pulit SARACENOS et Inimices ●egno. But this certainly is a mere fable, and gross mistake; (which I admire Mr. Lambard. and Sir Edward Cook observed not;) for the Saxacens never invaded England in any age, neither were they expelled the Realm by King Arthur; but the Saxons, who had then and formerly possessed themselves of a great part of Britain, were vanquished and expelled by him in the years of grace 518, 520, 522, as Matt. Westminster, 
d Hist. l. 9, 10.  Geoffry Manmouth, Tho. Walsingham, and 
e Grafton, Holinshed, & others in his Life.  other of our Historians relate; yet not by virtue of this Oath, (which no Historian mentioned) but of his arms and 〈◊〉; this Oath (as I conceive) being rath ●r●invented by our Saxon Kings, than King Arthur; and first prescribed by this Law of King Edmund son of Adelstan (made at

Ut omnes jurent in nomine Domini etc. FIDELIIS ATEM Edmundo Reg., SICUT HOMO DEBET ESSE FIDELIS DOMINO SUO; sine omni controversia et seditione in manifesto et occulto, etc. Et quod ANTEQVAM JURAMENTUM HOC DABITUR, ut nemo concelet hoc in fratre vel proximo suo plus quam in extraneo.

The first who brought Homage into England for aught I can find, was William the Conqueror, and his Normans●, who equally imposed it, on all Bishops, Abbot's and Clergymensas well as on the Laity, in the selfsame words and form for aught appears. How Bishops & Abbots came to be exempred from doing homage for their Temporalties to our Kings after their consecra●●ons I have already touched & shall here further declare for the information of those of my own profession:

The Pope being much offended that Kings should thus confer Bishoprics, Abbeys, and other Ecclesiastical dignities Per Annulum et Baculum, and that Bishops, and Abbots should thus do Homage and Fealty to them, and become their men, as well as Laics, (as being a grand impediment to their Supreme Authority over Emperors, Kings and Princes of the earth, strenuously attempted by Pope Hil● lebrand;) thereupon Pope Urban the 2d.

Anselm Archbishop of Canterbury, a Burgundian by birth, and great Creature of the Popes, peremptorily refused to consecrate any Bishops, who received their Investi●ures per annulum baculum from the King, or to have any communion with those who were thus invested and consecrated by the Archbishop of York in his absence; denying to do any homage or fealty to King Henry the 1. after his revocation by him from his exile under Will. Rufus, without the Pope's licence; affirming, Volente DEO NVLLIVS MORTALIS HOMOFIAM, nec per Sacramen●ū alicui FIDEM PROMITTAM. Hereupon Rex, Regnique Proceres, Episcopi, et cujuscunque generis aulici praeter Regni consuetudinem ab Anselmo facti●atum indignè ferentes asserebant sese nunquam tam iniquo Papae decreto assensos vel assensuros, et potius tam Anselmum regno exterminaturos et ab Ecclesia Romana penitus disces●uros, quam hanc Papae sententiam A JURE REGIO, REGNIQUE CONSUETUDINE PRORSUS ALIENAM, ratam haberent. After many public meetings and debates between the King, Prelates, Nobles and Anselm about this business, it was agreed, that Anselm, and William Werelast the King's Ambassador, should go to Rome to Pope Paschal the 2. and debate this business before him; where the said William appearing, and vehemently urging before the Pope in the King's behalf; Dedecus ei, et videri et esse, si Antecessorum suorum jura perderet, quos ipse et animi magni●udine, et opum affluentia longe praerivit, etc. Adding in the close; Quod Dominus meus nec pro amissione Regni patietur sibi Ecclesiarum investituras auferri. To which the insolent Pope presently replied with a stern countenance. Nec ego pro capitis sui redemptione eum investituras permittam impune habere; Whereupon they decreed the cause for Anselm against the King; and in a Synod at Lateran, ratified the former Decree of Pope Urban in the Council at Rome; which this Pope by his consolatory Epistle to 
m Eadmeri Hist. Nou. l. 3. p. 63, 64. ) Anselm informed him of, encouraging him openly and boldly to appear and speak in this cause for the Churches divine Liberty. Anselm hereupon wrote thus to King Henry (inviting him to return into England, and to do him that service as his predecessors had done to his Ancestors)

o Spelmanni Glossarium, p. 357.  Ludovicus Crassus K. of France was so pusillanimous, as by his Charter, dated An. 1137. to exempt his Archbishops, Bishops and Clergy from doing any Homage or Fealty to him for their temporalties before, or after their Consecrations, granting them, Quod canonicam omnino gauderent libertatem ABSQVE HOMAGII, JURAMENTI, seu fidei primum datae, obligatione; Yet K. Hen. the first, though he were contented at last to part with his investitures to Bishoprics and Abbeys, yet he would upon no terms exempt any Bishops or Abbots from the homage due unto him for their temporalties, after their elections, and before their Consecrations, not from the Oath of Fealty; they always doing homage to him and his Successors, at least wise before their consecrations, though seldom after them, and that in the selfsame form as Laymen did, (without omitting this Clause, I become your man) as appears by Glanvil, l. 9 c. 1. Bracton, l. 2. c. 35. Fleta, l. 3. c. 16. Britton, ch. 66 of Homages; and 17 E. 2.

Indeed Angelus de Clavasio in his Summa Angelica Tit. Homagium, and other Canonists hold it to be Simony and unlawful, prore ' spirituali, puia Beneficio Ecclesiastico HOMAGIUM EXIGERE: But our Laws resolve it an ancient Legal duty and Service: Of which see more in Spelmanni Glossarium, Tit. Fidelitas & Homagium, in William Summoner's Glossarium, Tit. Homagium, and in Bracton, Britton and Fleta.  
4. That this clause in the writs to the Temporal Lords in fide & homagio, implies they were all (or most) Barons by tenure. And whereas 
a 4 Instit. p. 5.  Sir Ed. Cook, and 
b 5 Glossarium, p. 80.  Sir Henry Spelman assert, That of ancient time, the temporal Lords were commanded by the Kings writ thus to appear, In fide et homagio quibus Nobis tenemini, and in the reign of Edward 3. in fide et ligeantia, and sometimes in fide et homagio, but at this day constantly, in fide et ligeantia; because at this day there are no feudal Baronies, in respect whereof Homage is to be done; which in 21 E. 3. was the true cause of this alteration: If this observation of theirs, That in fide et homagio, feodales propriè respiciat Barones, denoting only such Barons who were Barons by tenure, or Barony, for which they did their Homage and swore Fealty and Allegiance to the King: then this is a most convincing argument, that all the Lords and Barons summoned before 11 E. 3. were Barons only by tenure, not by writ alone, because they were all regularly summoned to appear in fide et homagio, not in fide et ligeantia: 2ly. It is a clear mistake, that this alteration of homagio into ligeantia, was made in 21 E▪ 3. for it was not till 25 E. 3. pars 1. dors. 5. in fide et homagio, being used both in the writs of 21, 22, 23, & 24 E. 3. 3ly. The reason of this alteration could not be this they tender, because all or most of the Lords and Barons then summoned, did not hold of the King by Barony; but were Barons only by writ, not tenure; First, because all the writs to the Prince of Wales, ●and Earls then summoned (who held of the King by Homage and Barony) issued in this form in fide et ligeantia to them, as well as to the inferior Lords and Barons. 2ly, Because the selfsame Prince, Earls, Lords summoned in this form in 25 E. 3. in the very next years of 26 E. 3. d. 14. and 27 E. 3. d. 12. were twice summoned again, i● fide, homagio et ligeantia quibus Nobis tenemini, and 28 E. 3. d. 26. in fide et homagio; after in 29 E. 3. d. 8. 7. 31 E. 3. d. 21. & 1. they are summoned in fide et ligeantia; but yet in 32 E. 3. d. 14. 36 E. 3. d. 16. 37 E. 3. d. 22. 38 E. 3. d. 3. 39 E. 3. d. 2. 42 E. 3. d. 22. 43 E. 3. d. 24. 46 E. 3. d. 9 all the writs to the Prince, Earls, Lords and Barons, run again in fide et homagio only: and some between and after them in fide et ligeantia only, though issued to the selfsame persons, or their heirs: Therefore ligeantia, in these and subsequent writs, is put only as a Synonimons, signifying only Homagium; as the coupling them together in two writs, in fide, homagio et ligeantia, and the placing of Homagio thus interchangeably for ligeantia, and ligeancia for homagio, evidence beyond contradiction: The rather, because there is the highest promise and bond of Allegiance expressed in the very words, and form of homage done to the King (as the words, 
* Littl. §. 85.  I become your man from this day forwards of life and member, and of earthly worship, and unto you shall be true and faithful, and bear you faith, and this clause, saving the faith that I owe unto our Sovereign Lord the King, when done to a common person) import: and Glanvil l. 9 c. 1. Bracton l. 2. c. 35. Fleta l. 3. c. 16. Sir Edward Cook in his 1 Institutes on Littleton's Chapter of Homage, Sir Hen. Spelman, and Summoner in their Glossaries Tit. Homagium & Fidelitas, at large demonstrate; Therefore homage may be properly styled ligeantia, and be put in lien of homagio, as doubtless it is in all those writs that use it. 3ly. I find 
c See An Exact Abridgement of the Records in the Tower, p. 332, 370, 545, 576, 625, 626.  sundry Homages for Dutchies, Earldoms and Baronies, done to our Kings by the Duke of Aquitain, the D●ke of Hereford, Henry Percy, the Duke of Norfolk, and other Peers, who were then and afterwards summoned in fide et ligeantia, not homagio; and I doubt Sir Edward Cook and those of his opinion, can hardly name any Dukes, Earls, Viscount's, Lords or Barons, summoned to Parliament under Henry the 3. R. 2. H. 4, 5, 9 or E. 4. who was not a Lord by Tenure or Barony, as well as by Patent, or a special writ of creation, the very names of their Baronies as 
d 4 Instit. p. 5.  Sir Edward Cook, and 
e Titles of Honour, p. 720.  Mr. Selden inform us, being usually expressed in all later writs of Summon●: Therefore this their conjecture of altering the writs from homagio to ligeantia, because they held not by homage, must needs be erroneous, and groundless in my judgement, and the assertions of such who hold, that the Kings bore general writs of summons, issued to those who held not by Barony, did create them and their issues Barons, if they sat in Parliament without any special creation by some Clauses in the writs, or by Pa●ent, grounded on this mistake, must vanish into smoke; else that Clause of creation in the writ to Sir Henry Bromfleet, Cl. 27 H. 6. d. 24. would have been both superfluous and ridiculous.  
5ly. That this clause, in fide et homagio; or, in fide & ligeantia quibus Nobis tenemini, is sometimes omitted out of the writs of Summons to the Prince of Wales, and other times inserted into them.  
6ly. That the Prince of Wales in the writs of Summons and adjournment, is sometimes styled Princeps Walliae only; sometimes, Princeps Aquitaniae et Walliae; other times, Princeps Walliae, Dux Cornubiae, et Comes C●striae; when all these titles were conferred on him by the King.  
7ly▪ That in the writs issued to Dukes, Earls, and Temporal Lords of the King's Progeny, royal blood and alliance, they are usually styled; Carissimo filio nostro; Fratri Regis; Fratri nostro; Auunculo Regis; Auunculo nostro; Nepoti nostro; Consanguineo nostro, etc. and the other Earls and Temporal Lords, Dilecto et fideli nostro, only; and that those of the blood royal are for the most part, though not always, first entered in the Rolls of summons.  
81y. That when a Duke or Earl of England was made a real or titular King of any foreign Realm, his Royal title was always mentioned in the writ: Thus john Duke of Lancaster King of Castle and Leon, in all writs of summons to him after his foreign Kingship., was styled, Car●ssimo filio suo Iohanni Regi Castellae et L●gionis Duci Lancastriae, in the summons of 46. 49, 50 ●. 〈◊〉 And Carissimo Auunculo suo Iohanni Regi Castell● & Legionis, Duci Lancastriae: in all the writs issued to him under King Rich●rd the 2d. So if any Earl or Baron of England, was created a Duke or Earl in Scotland, France, or Ireland, his foreign Titles were inserted into the writs, as the Title of Cardinal, or Patriarch of jerusalem was inserted into the English Bishops writs created Cardinal's and Patriarches beyond the Seas. Thus Gilb●rt de Vinf. an l an English Baron being made Earl of Anegoes, and David de Stràbolgi, Earl of Athol in Scotland, Leonell the King's son Earl of Ulster in Ireland; the black Prince made Prince of Aquitain as well as of Wales, and john Duke of Lancaster, Duke of Aquitan, under Richard the 2d. the were thereupon styled 
* See p. 2● 12, 213.  Comiti Anegoes, Comiti Athol, Comiti Vlton, Principi Aquitani● & Walliae, Duci Aquitaniae & Lancastriae, in the writs directed to them: and if these their foreign Titles were omitted in any Writs against them at the Common Law, the writs would abate, because they were English Peers, and had these Titles inserted into their writs of Summons to Parliament, where they sat in their Princes, Dukes and Earls Robes, amongst the rest of the Dukes and Earls. But if any foreign Duke, Earl, Lord, or Baron of France, Ireland, Spain or Germany, who was no English Baron, Lord or Peer of Parliament, was sued in the King's Court by writ, he might be styled only a Knight or Esquire, and needed not to be sued by the Title of Duke, Earl, Lord or Baron; because he was no Duke, Earl, Lord or 
* See my Argument of the case of the Lord Magwire.  Baron at all in England; but only in his own Country, and should be tried upon an Indictment of Treason, Murder or Felony, only by an ordinary jury, and not by English Peers. By which differences the Books of 39 E. 3. 3●. Brooks Nosme de dignity, ●9. 59 & Parl. 4. 11 E. 3. Fi●zh. Brief. 473. 8 R. 2. Fitzh. Process 224. 20 E. 4. 6. Brooks Nosme de Dignity. 49.

9 That if any Earl, Baron or Lord was Marshal, Constable, Steward, Admiral, Chancellor, Treasurer, or other great Officer of England, or Warden of the Cinque ports; his Title of Office was commonly inserted into the writs of Summons. As, Rogero, or Thomae Comiti Naff. & Marescallo Angliae, Auunculo suo carissimo, Thomae de Wodestoke Consta●ulario Augliae, Willo de Cl●nton comiti Ha●i●gdon, Constabulario Castri Dover. et Custodi quinque Portuum suorum, etc. What precedency these Officers had of other Earls, Lords and Barons, in Parliament, you may read in the Statute of 31 H. 8. c. 10. and Mr. S●ldens Titles of Honor. p. 901, etc.  
10. That in the lists of the Dukes, Earls, Lords, and Barons names there is no certain order observed according to their Antiquity or Precedency, but in some Rolls one is first entered, in other Rolls others listed before them, and they again postponed in succeeding lists: Y●t generally for the most part, ●hough not always, the Prince of Wales is first entered before the rest; the Dukes before the Earls; the Earls & Viscount's before the Lords and Barons; and they before the judges or King's Council; and the Earl who was Marshal of England, before the other Earls; the Clerks entering their names promiscuously for the most part as the Writs came to their hands. Some times the first Writs entered at large issued to one Earl, Lord, Duke, Baron, other times the Writs go to others, without observing the Laws of Heraldry, though in the reing of Edward the 3d. and afterwards, their names are more methodically entered then before that time; oft times in the selfsame order, or with some small variations and transpositions. So as the Precedency of the Earls or Barons, and their places of sitting in the Parliament House cannot be certainly collected from, or defined by the entry of their Writs of Summons or li●ting in the Eodem modo mandatum est, or Consimiles lit●rae; but by custom, and the Statute of 31 H. 8. cap. 10.  
11ly. That in some Clause Rolls there is one Writ to the Archbishop, or some other Bishop first entered at large, and another Writ at large, to some one Earl or temporal Lord; with an Eodem modo, or Consimiles literae, only entered to the rest there listed: but most usually, there is only but one Writ entered at large to one of the Archbishops, or some other Bishops; and then a short recital of some part of that Writ to one temporal Lord, with an etc. Teste ut supra, and the like, for brevity sake: and an Eodem modo, and Consimiles literae; or some short entries of some special clauses of the Writ, to all the other temporal Lords.  
12ly. That in the Eodem modo, and Consimiles Literae; first the Bishops, Abbots, Priors and spiritual Lords, than the Dukes, Earls, Temporal Lords, Barons, Justices, King's Counsils names, are entered successively one after another, after the first Writ, which is singly entered in sundry Rolls, without any Writ or part of Writ interposed between their names; as if they had all the selfsame Writs in terminis issued to them. But in most Rolls, there is either a distinct Writ, or part of Writ; or an Eodem modo mandatum est etc. mutatis mutandis; interposed between the names of the Bishops, Abbots, Priors, and Earls and Lay Lords; & likewise between the Temporal Lords, and the King's Council and Justices summoned to Parliaments: with the usual clauses wherein the writs differ one from another inserted into them; which different clauses no doubt were in most of the Writs issued to them in those Rolls where they are all entered promiscuously together in the Eodem modo, and Consimiles Literae; without any Writ or part of a Writ, or m●tatis mutandis interposed between them, omitted only for brevity sake by the Clerks; who engrossed the Rolls.  
13ly. That the English Barons, who were titulary Earls in Scotland under the King's Jurisdiction and Allegiance were always summoned and li●●ed amongst the Earls of England in the Rolls of Summons, not amongst the English Lords and Barons who were no Earls: witness Gilbert, and Robert de Vmfranil, Earls of Anegoes in Scotland, and David de Stabolgi, Earl of Athol, always summoned to the Parliaments by the Titles of these their Scotish Earldoms, and li●ted amongst the English Earls, not Barons, in the Clause Rolls. Gilbert de Vmfranil being summoned by Writ as Earl of An●gos, to no less than 12. Robert de Vmfranil to 63. Gilbert 〈◊〉 Vmfran●l his Son, to 50. English Parliaments, & David de Sirabolgi to 21. Parliaments and great Councils, as Earl of Athol (as the ensuing Table will inform you) amongst the other Earls of England: but no other Earls of Scotland besides these two. The reason whereof was only this, because they were English Barons, and held lands by Barony in England, though the Titles of their Earldoms were not English but Scotish, y●t they were under the King's Subjection Allegiance; and their Residence when thus summoned, was upon their Baronies in England. That Gilbert de Vmfranil, was an English Baron and Lord of Parliament, before he became Earl of Anegoes, is clear by the Clause Rolls of 23 E. 1. d. 4. 9 & 24 E. 1. d. 7. 
b See Cooks 4. Insti●. p. 47.  wherein he was summoned to 3. Parliaments amongst the English Lords and Barons; but then being Earl of Anegoes by descent from his Mother, he, was in Cl. 25 E. 1. d. 25. & sundry Parliaments after, always summoned by the name of Earl of Anegoes, and listed amongst the Earls of England, as the ensuing Table demonstrates. So Rob. de Umfranil, summoned to Parliament amongst the English Barons, Claus. 2. E. 2. d. 20. was in Claus. 2. E. 2. d. 11. and all succeeding Parliaments under Edward the 2. & 3. summoned to Parliament as Earl of Anegoes among the Earls of England, with whom he is still entered in the Rolls. The like may be said of David de Stra●olgi, who though originally a Scotish Earl, was yet afterwards made an English Lord by the King, and held L●nds in England by Barony, and upon that account summoned to sundry Parliaments and great Councils by ●●e Title of Earl of Athol, and registered amongst the English Earls in the Clause Ro●ls. Which I thought meet to touch, both to rectify and clear that do●b●e mistake in the Antiquity of the Parliaments of England (newly printed) p. 46. That Peers of Scotland were wont to come and be summoned to the Parliament. And that the Peers of Scotland came to the Parliament for justice: which the Author endeavours to prove by 39 F. 3. 35. in a writ of Ravishment de Gardiner, against Gilbert Vmfravi●; who demanded judgement of the writ, because he was Earl of Anguish, and not so named in the writ, etc. When as he was not summoned to our Parliament as a Peer of Sco●land, but only as an English Baron dignified with the Title of a Scotlsh Earldom; and came not to our English Parliament for justice; but was summoned to it by Spe●●●l writs, as a Peer and Member thereof; as the Clause Ro●ls resolve, and the very year Book likewise. Of which more hereafter in its proper place.  
14ly. That no Foreign Prelates, Earls, Nobles, Barons of Ireland, Scotland or France were formerly summoned to the Parliaments of England, as pro●er Members thereof or Lords of Parliament, to make Laws or impose Taxes, or give judgement, or Counsel in any matters relating to England, but only our English Prelates, Earls, Lords and Barons; as is most apparent by these special clauses in the writs of Summons.

Which I shall farther clear in some ensuing Sections.

That there is a great diversity between writs of Summons to Parliaments, or General Parliamentary Councils; and to particular Councils upon emergent occasions which are not properly Parliaments; all the Bishops, Abbots, Priors, Earls, Lords, Barons, together with the Judges and King's Council, Citizens, Burgesses of Parliament, and Barons of the Ci●que ports, being usually summoned to the one; but some few Spiritual and Temporal Lords only, without any Judges, Assistants, Knights, Citizens Burgesses or Barons of the Cinque-ports, or some few of them only, and divers who were no usual Lords, Barons of Parliament (as in 32 E. 3. d. 14. and other Rolls) summoned to the other, as the Clause Rolls attest. Which difference some ignorant Antiquaries not observing, have confounded them both together as one and the same, and mistaken some writs of Summons only to a Council, or to a conference with the King & his Privy Council upon extraordinary dangers & occasions, for writs of Summons to a Parliament. Such amongst other forecited writs, are these of 
* Here, p. 187, to 192.  35 E. 3. dors. 36. & 36. E. 3. d. 42. Where all those Earls, Lords, Abbots, Peers, Great men, Gentlemen, Countess', Ladies and Dowagers who had Lands in Ireland (and none else but they alone) were summoned, the Temporal Lords and great men, to appear in proper Person, the Clergymen, Countesses, Ladies and Dowagers, to send one or more Proxies or Deputies in whom they specially confided, to the King and his Council at Westminster (not to the Parliament) there to confer and treat with them concerning the relief of Ireland, and their passage to, or sending men of Arms speedily into Ireland, to resist, suppress the Irish Rebels, who much infested, wasted, and endangered it; as the whole frame and contents of the writs themselves, and the marginal Notes in the Rolls, De Consillo Summonito: De Veniendo ad Consilium, etc. resolve beyond all contradiction. Which joseph Holland and others not considering, in their Antiquity of the Parliaments of England, p. 23. 88 have published these two gross mistakes together, viz. That in the time of Edward the th●●●, ther● was a writ then in use; De admittendo ●ide dignas ad colloquium, etc. It is recorded amongst the Summons of Parliament, 35 E. 3. that there is a writ, De admittendo fide dignos ad Colloquium. And amongst the Earls and Barons there is returned. Marry Countess de Norff: Alianoxa Countess de Ormond▪ Philippe Countess de March, Agnes Countess de Pembroke, and Katherine Countess of Athol. When as these Countesses were not recorded nor returned amongst the Earls and Barons in any Summons to Parliament, nor were they required to send or come to any Parliament or Parliamentary Council; nor is th●re any writ, in this or any other Roll; De admittendo fide dignas, or dignos ad Colloquium; as they confidently affirm. But they were only summoned by writ to send men of Arms into Ireland with other Lords, Gentlemen, Clergymen, who had Lands and Possessions there, as these Countesses all had, for to defend and recover the same from the Irish Enemies; and commanded; 
* See here p. ●88, 189, 190, 191.  Aliquos vel aliquem de quibus, vel de quo specialiter confiditis MITTATIS apud Westm. etc. Which MITTATIS these Pseudo-Antiquaries, have metamorphosed into a writ, DE ADMITTENDO fide dignas ad Colloquium. By which gross perversion they have evidenced themselves and their Treatises, not to be fide digni, in these and other particulars rela●ing to our Parliaments, wherewith they have deceived both themselves and others, who adore these their Oversights for Oracles.  
16ly. That when any of the Earls, Lords or Nobles were employed in the Wars in France, Scotland, Ireland, or any other service for the King in foreign parts, they were omitted out of the lists of Summons to Parliaments, and Parliamentary Councils; and if any writs in such cases issued to them they were usually revoked & canceled, and entries thereof made upon the Clause Rolls: This is evident by Claus. 11 E. 3. 25. dors. 11. where I find these 2. Precedents in the lists of the Lords and Barons names. Thomae Wake de Lydett, VACAT QUIA IN OBSEQUIO REGIS. Henry de Grey, VACAT, QUIA IN OBSEQUIO REGIS. After which, at the end of all the writs of Summons to the Sheriffs, Warden of the Cinque-ports, and King's Counsel, follows this entry of writs to some Earls, Lords and Gentlemen, besides those first mentioned after the Spiritual Lords then summoned.

If any Baron or Lords name were in the list of Summons, and he not actually summoned; there was then a Vacat entered in the Roll; as in Claus. 11. E. 3. p. 1. dors. 8. johi de Sutton de holderness (VACAT QUIA NON FUIT SUMMONITUS) And if he died before the Parliament, than his death was entered upon the Roll, as Claus, 9 E. 3. d. 28. johi de Clinton, MORTUUS EST.  
17ly. That when any Temporal Lords or Prelates had writs of Summons to Parliament issued to them in times of war and danger, whilst they were employed in the Wars against the Scots in the North, or parts of Scotland; if they could not desert the Wars and attend personally in Parliament without danger and prejudice to the Public, they had then writs of countermand sent them, not to recede from the parts where they were in Service, notwithstanding their Summons to Parliament. For which I find this memorable precedent in Claus. 30 E. 1. d. 7. De non recedendo à partibus Scotiae,

As for the Bishops in such cases, they were by other special writs authorized to make Proctors to supply their places; though summoned by the original writs to appear personally in Parliament, and not by Proxies; as in Claus. 20 E. 3. pars 2. d. 22. and Claus. 46 E. 6. d. 11. forecited p. 51. 52. 58.  
18ly. That if the King either Summoned or prorogued a Parliament to a certain day and place by his writs, commanding the Earls, Lords and other great men personally to appear in Parliament at that day and place; and then by reason of other emergent occasions could not meet them, or hold the Parliament at the time and place prefixed, he then usually discharged them all from their attendance by a subsequent wrir; Of which we have this pregnant example, Claus. 5. E. 2. d. 17.

Consimiles Literae dirigunter subscriptis: viz. to 6. Earls more, and the rest of the Lords summoned with them to appear personally at this Parliament.  
19ly. That sometimes the Temporal Lords as well as Prelates, were more strictly and peremptorily required, and adjured with greater earnestness to appear Personally in Parliaments and Parliamentary Councils, than they were at other seasons, without admitting any excuses or making any Proxies; because through their absence and want of their personal presence when summoned, the Parliaments were oft adjourned to some other time, the business of the King and Kingdoms retarded, delayed to the public praejudice, and the Parliaments sometimes dissolved without concluding any thing, the Lords and Commons there assembled refusing to do or grant any thing, when any of the chief Lords and Prelates were absent,  
20. That no Spiritual or Temporal Lords could absent themselves from Parliaments when duly summoned thereunto without a reasonable and just excuse, nor make any Proxies or Proctors to supply their places, but when specially authorized and licenced to do it in or by the writs of Summons, or other special writs, much le●●e than could they be forcibly secluded the House when summoned by writ; as some of late times have most violently been by those who were raised to defend both their persons and the privileges of Parliament.  
21. That armed Guards, Forces, and Troops of Soldiers in or near the Places where Parliaments are assembled and kept, are altogether inconsistent with the Customs, Usage, Freedom and Privileges of Parliament; prejudicial obstructions to their proceedings, and a great oppression to the people; Upon which account not only the Earls, Lords and Barons, are sometimes in the writs of Summons specially prohibited under grievous forfeitures and penalties to repair to the Parliament, 
* See here, p. 27, 28▪ 177.  With men of Arms, and multitudes of people; and to come only cum dicenti comitiva de hominibus bonae discretionis et consilii, et NON CUM HOMINIBUS AD ARMA, sub forisfactura omnium quae Nobis forisfacere poteritis. Claus. 2 E. 3. m. 31. dorso; But our Kings likewise by special writs and Proclamations at the very first meeting of their Parliaments usually prohibited all sorts of men, under pain of forfeiting all they might forfeit, not to wear any privy Coat of plate, or go Armed, or carry any Warlike weapons within any City or Suburbs thereof where their Parliaments sa●e, during all the time of their Session, that so the Parliaments and Member●s might not be thereby disturbed, interrupted, over awed or terrified; as those who please may read at large in the Statute of 7 E. 1. Rastals Abridgement, Armour 1. 1 E. 2. c. 3. 6 E. 3. rot. Parl. n. 3. Parl. 2. n. 2. Parl. 3. at York. n. 3. 415. ●. 3 E. 3. Parl. 1. n. 2.

Such a Proclamation as this issued before the Parliament held at New Sarum, An. 2. E. 3. as is evident by the Articles of improachm●nt against Roger Mortymer Earl of March, in the Parliament of 4E. 3. Rot. Parl. n. 1, 2. and 28 E. 3. n. 9, 10● Who amongst oath. Articles was impeached condemned and executed as a Traitor, for coming

After which the Parliament of 5 R. 2. as appears by n. 1. was interrupted and adjourned because the Duke of Lancaster, and Earl of Northumberland being at variance, resorted to i● with multitudes of men armed in warlike manner, of which great complaint was made; and the Parliament deferred till the King, his Council and other Lords had examined and reconciled the differences between them, and removed their forces. Fit precedents for future times to imitate, after so many outrages and forcible assaults upon the Parliament and their Members by Soldiers and others of late times, beyond all precedents in former ages, to the total dissolution both of our Parliaments and their privileges, unless carefully regained, reestablished by strictest Laws, exemplary Punishments, and severest prohibitions of all armed forces in or near unto the places where future Parliaments shall assemble; who by the just judgement of God upon the former Parliament, (which against the Custom, Freedom and Privilege of Parliaments making use of armed mercenary Guards and Soldiers for their defence, hath been unexpectedly affronted, assaulted, forced, dissipated, yea destroyed by them, and made their basest Slaves and Captives) may learn to avoid all such extravagances and oversights in succeeding ages.  
22. It is observable and most evident by comparing the births of our Princes of 
* Walsingh●m Graf●on, Speed, Holinshed, Daniel Baker, How Martin.  Wales and Earls of Chester recorded in our Histories, wi●h the dates of their first waits of Summons to Parliaments; that Edward of Carnarvan, the first Prince of Wales was first summoned by writ to Parliament when he was but 19 years old; that Edward the eldest Son of King Edward the second, as Earl of Chestenr, was first summoned by writ to Parliament when he was scarce 9 years of age; that Edward the black Prince of Wales, was summoned when he was not 20. and Richard his Son Prince of Wales called by writ to Parliament when he was not full 9 years old: The King's eldest and youngest ●ons being usually summoned to Parliaments during their Minorities, (though others are 
* See my Minors no senators.  seldom summoned till their full age) even as King Henry the 6. road triumphantly to, 
* Speed Chronicle, p. ●828. 829.  and sat in State in Parliament in his Queen-mothers' lap, before he was full 12. months old.  
23. I observe, that in Claus. 27 E. 1. d. 6. 16. Adomarus de Valencia, was summoned and listed among the Earls, without the Title of Earl annexed to his name, being then, as I conceive, Earl of P●mbroc, and so styled in succeeding Summons: And in Claus. 50 E. 3. pars. 2. d. (
* See the Table of Earls, ensuing, ) 6. Thomas de Wodestoke Constabularius Angliae, and Henry de Percy Marescallus Angliae, are listed amongst the Earls without any Title of Earls; yet in the next writ of Summons, Claus. 1. R. 2. d. 31. 37. Thomas de Wodestoke, is styled Come▪ de Buck: et Constab. Angliae: and Henry de Percy, Com. Northumb. in the list of the Earls; and therefore I apprehend they were Earls in 50 E. 3. (as our Histories & Heralds report them) though not so styled inthe Roll of Summons.  
24. That the names of the King's Council, Justices, and other Officers, summoned to Parliaments only as Assistants, are sometimes inserted into the Eodem modo mandatum est; and Confimiles literae next after the the Lords and Barons name without any space, line or distinction between them, sometimes with a lines distance, or small space only from them; sometimes they are distinguished from the Lords and Barons by the words Milites, or Cl●ricis Consilii, & I●st●●iar▪ added in the Margin and a small space between them, as in Claus. 5 E. 2. d. 17. Cl. 2 E. 1. and sometimes they are in●exmixed with the Lords and Barons names, and listed amongst them●, as in Claus. 8 E. 2. d. 35. Roger de Brabazon and 7 others of them are● named amongs●●th Lords and Barons, and so in Claus. 3 E. 3. d. 19 Claus. ● E. 3. p. 2. d. 7.  
In the Clause Roll of 25 E. 1. d. 25. the word Milites is inserted in the Margin over against the Names of the Judges and King's Council, in the Eodem modo, and in Claus. 5 E. 2. d. 17. Clericis consilii, & justiciar. is written in the Margin, to distinguish them from the Lords, and Barons, (but in no Rolls besides) without the word Barones superadded to the Barons and Great-men in the catalogue of their names.  
24. That although the word BARO and BARONES in the Clause Rolls of King john, Henry the 3d● Edward 1. 2. & Histories, 
* See My plea for the Lords, p. 60. to 303. 506. 507. Magna Charta Preface, c. 2. 14. 31. 37. Cha●●a Forestae, c. 4. 11. 26. 3● H. 3. c. 10. 3 E. 1. Prologue.  Great Charters and Statutes in their reigns be frequently used, applied to all the Temporal Lords of Parliament, yet in all the Clause Rolls and Writs of Summons I have seen, no particular persons amongst them are summoned by the Title of Barons, but only the Barons of Greystok, Graystoke, or Craystoke, and the Barons of Stafford: In the Clause Rolls of Ed. 1, & 3, so of Rich. 2. H. 4. 5. and 6. writs are frequently issued johanni BARONI de Greystoke, Willo. BARONI de Greystoke, Rado. BARONI de Greystoke, as they are s●iled in the Eodem modo; yet in other writs, lists, rolls in the Eodem modo, the direction to these very Barons, is many times johanni de Craystoke, or Greystoke, Willo. & Rado. de Greystoke, without the addition of BARONI annexed to them; which Title is totally omitted in all the Ro●●s of Edw. the 4th. as the ensuing Alphabetical and Chronological Table, with my Table to the Exact Abridgement of the Records in the Tower, will more particularly inform you. So in the Rolls of King E. 1. & 3. (mentioned in the following Table) the directions in sundry writs in the ●od●m modo are, Edmundo, & Rado. BARONI de Stafford; and in other writs to the one of them, he is styled only Rado. de Stafford, BARONI being omitted in his Title, BARO, being given ●o none (for aught I can find) in any lists of summons, but to these 2. Barons of Greystoke and Stafford alone.  
25. That in my best observation ● the Title or Addition of MILES or CHIVALER, was not given to any Temporal Lords or Barons in any writs or lists of Summons to Parliament before Claus. 49 E. 3. dorse 4. 6. & 50 E. 3. pars 2. d. 6. wherein summons issued Willielmo le Morle Chivaler, Willielmo de Aldeburgh Chivaler, johanni de Will. Chivaler, Hugoni de Dacre Chivaler; after which it grew more common under King Rich. the 2. Henry 4. and 5. when many of the Temporal Lords and Barons had this addition given them sooner or later; those who wanted it in one, two, three, four or more writs of Summons at first, before they were Knighted, receiving it in subsequent writs after they were Knighted. After the beginning of King Henry the 6. and during the reign of Edw. the 4th. there was scarce any Temporal Lord in the lists of summons but was styled 
a See Coke 4 Instit. p. 5.  Chivaler, or Miles, being all genetally Knighted for their greater honour. Of all the Temporal Lords, I find only one namely Tho. de la Ware, constantly styled MAGISTER Tho. de la Ware in all writs of summons to him from 23 R. 2. ●05 H. 6. as the en●uing Table will inform you; the true and only reason whereof I apprehend to be this, that before the temporal Dignity of a Lord or Baron descended to him, 
b See Co ● 4 Instit. p. 5.  he had been a Clergyman in sacred Orders; this Title Magister being always prefixed before the Names of all of the King's Council who were Clergymen, in their summons to Parliament as Assistants to the Lords House, as the writs and Table in the next Section will inform you● not to distinguish him from the Lords who were Knights, as some mistake, because none of the other Lords who were not Knights, had this Title Magister given to them, but he alone: Now whereas in the summons of 1 E. 4. john de Audley, is 
c Cook, ib.  styled Armiger, I conceive it mistaken by the Clerks for Chlr. he being ever ●●iled Chivaler, not Armiger, in the summons of 49 H. 6. d. 6. 2 E. 4. d. 3. 6 E. 4. d. 1. and all other summons else; and not one Baron or Lord Armiger, but he alone, though unknighted; Armiger being a petty inferior Title, not suitable to his Lordship or P●erage.  
26. That the Prince of Wales, Dukes, Earls and Marquesses, are regularly styled by their Christian names, and Titles or Places of their Dignities, and very rarely (yet now and then) by their 
d Seldens titles of Honour, p. 722. Cook 4 Instit. p. p.  Surnames; but the temporal Lords and Barons till the end of King Rich. the 2. his reign, in the writs of summons directed to them, are for the most part styled by their Christian names and Surnames, or by their Baronies supplying Surnames● and sometimes both by their Surnames and Baronies. That the Ti●le DOMINUS, was not usually given to any of them, except two, before the reign of King Henry the 6. The first in my observation to whom this ●itle was given in any writ of summons, was john de Mowbray, who in Claus. 16 E. 3. par. 2. d. 13. and so in other succeeding writs (though not in all) is styled john de Mowbray DOMINUS Insulae de Axholm: none else having this Title till af●er the reign of Rich. the 2. The next so styled is in Claus. 11 H. 4. d. 32. where a writ issued johanni Talbot DOMINO de Fur●vall; which though omitted in some summons after, is again used in the summons to him Cl. 4 H. 5. d. 16. and Cl. 8H. 5. d. 2. After which I find none so styled till Cl. 23 H. 6. d. 21. where Robert Hungerford Chivaler, is styled DOMINUS de Mollins; as he is in Cl. 25 H. 6. d. 24. which gives the title of DOMINUS de Poynings to H●nry Peircy. In Cl. 27 H. 6. d. 24. this title DOMINUS is given to Hungerford, Percy, and 4 more; in Cl. 28 H. 6. d. 26. it is added to 8. In Cl. 29 H. 6. d. 41. to 16. after which it grew more common to them and most others who were summoned; as the ensuing Table will more particularly inform you. But though the temporal Lords in the writs of summons issued to them, were seldom styled Lords or Barons before 23 H. 6. yet it is observable, that when any of them are particularly mentioned in the 
e See Exact Abridgement, p. 18. to 25. 121, to 124.  Parliament Rolls, Acts of Parliament, Commissions or Patents, they are usually styled BARONS or LORDS, as in the Pro●●gue of Magna Charta 9 H. 3. etc. 2. 14. 37. Charta de Foresta, c. 11. 20 H. 3. c. 9 51 H. 3. 1. 10. Dictum de Kenelworth 51 H. 3. 3 E. 1. the Prologue, and c. 23. 13 E. 1. c. 42. 18 E. 1. The Statute of Quo Warrauto, 25 E. 1. c. 6. 34 E. 1. c. 5.

How fearful Christians were to give this T●tle of DOMINUS to the Greatest Emperors, and how unwilling Augustus, and the greatest Christian Emperors were to receive or make use of i●, unless with the diminution of DOMNUS and DOMPNUS, not Dominus, you may read in Sir Henry spelman's Glossary, p. 225, 226. it being a Title 
f Psalm 110. 1. Acts 2. 36, Rom. 14. 8. 9 1 Cor. 8 5 6  peculiar to God and Christ: & DEI NO MEN, as 
g Apologia ●. 34.  Ter●ulli●●●●liles ●liles it; whereas now it is usurped by, and given to every upstart of the most ignoble extraction, to bring Nobility itself, and the House of Lords into contempt.  
27. That it is the inseparable incommunicable Prerogative, and Supreme Royal Jurisdiction of the Kings of England (underivable to, and inusurpable by any other person or persons) by their special Patents, Writs of Creation, Charters and Solemn Invchi●ures, to make and create Princes of Wales, Dukes, Earls, Marquesses, Viscount's, Lords, Barons and Peers of the Realm, and to give them and their posterities a place, seat, voice in the Parliament and Great Councils of England, the Supremest Judicature and highest Court of all others, wherein they

Therefore doubtless, none but our Kings and Queens alone can create Earls, Lords, or Baron● of Parliament in England, there being no one precedent in Antiquity, nor in any Empire or Kingdom in the world (that I remember) to the contrary; and this I conceive to be most clearly resolved in and by the Statutes ●f 27 H. c. 24 & 31 H. 8. c. 10.

I find this john Beauchamp only once mentioned in the List of Summons in Claus. 11 R. 2. dors 24. dated 27 die Decembris, within 3. months of his creation; where he is styled only johanni Beauchamp de Kiderminster, but neither Dominus de Beauchamp, nor BARO de Kiderminster: After which in the summons of 27 H. 6. till 12 E. 4. one of his posterity was summoned by the stile of john Beauchamp Miles, DOMINUS DE BEAUCHAMP, without the Title of BARO de Kiderminster, expressed in any of the Rolls. For the various significations of the word Baro, and the several kinds or degrees of Barons, you may at leisure consult Bartholomeus Cassanaeus, his Catalogus Gloriae mundi, pars 8. Consid. 15.

29. That I find no precedent of any person created a Baron by special writ, but only one; whereby Henry Bromfleet Knight and the heir males of his body were created Barons of Vescy, by this writ entered after the Names of the Temporal Lords in the summons of Claus. 27 H. 6. m. 26. dorso.  

i See the Exact Abridgement of the meant of the Records in the Tower, p. p. 637. Mr. Seldens Titles of Honour, p. 541. and My Plea for the Lords, p. 153.  Rex dilecto et fidelissimo Henrico Broms●eet Mili●i, salutem. Cum, etc. (ut supra, usque ibi) Tractatum: (et tum sic) Vobis in fide et ligeantia quibus Nobis tenemini, etc. ut supra.) nullatenus omittatis. Volumus enim VOS & HAEREDES VESTROS MASCULOS de corpore vestro legitimè exeuntes BARONES DE VESCEY EXISTERE. T. ●ege apud Westm. vicesimo quarto die Januarii; of a different date from that in the other summons, This special writ and clause of creation had been merely void and nugatory, had the general writ alone ennobled him and his Posterity, and them Lords and Barons of Parliament.  
Yet notwithstanding this special writ creating him BARON of Vescy; it is observable, that in all the subsequent writs of summons of 28, 29, 31, 33, 38 H. 6. and 1, 3, 7 E 4. he is always styled DOMINUS, but never BARO de VESCY; in any one List or Roll. I find in the Cl. Rolls of 49 H. 3. 23 E. 1. & 6. 7. 8 E. 2. john de Vescy first, and after him William de Vescy summoned amongst other temporal Lords. By which it is evident, that there were Lords and Barons of Vescy (though not so styled in the Rolls) under these 3. Kings who were summoned to Parliaments; But after the summons of 8 E. 2. there is no mention of them in any Rolls (the Barony escheating for want of issue male, or by attainder, as is probable) till Sir Henry Bromfleet and his issue males were created Barons thereof, by the premised writ. A sufficient evidence, th●t no general writ of summons created any Gentlemen who were summoned to Parliaments, Barons, unless they held Lands by Barony and were Barons by Tenure; there being no Clause or words in the general ordinary writs of Summons, creating any persons summoned, Earls, Lords or Barons, or giving them these Titles, unless they were Earls, Lords and Barons by Patent or Tenure before their Summons; the writs fliting them only such as they were when issued to them, and conferring no new Dignity or Title on them; as I have (1) elsewhere proved at large.  
30. That the most ordinary writs of Summons bo●h to the Spiritual and Temporal Lords, 
My Plea for the Lords Epistle to the Reader, and p. 127 to 162.  Sheriffs, and others use only the words Magnates, or Proceres, Magna ibus & Proceribus jointly, or one of them alone without the other, to express the Temporal Lords and Nobles, without the word Barones, or Baronibus, which very rarely occurs in any writs, except only in the waits to the Sheriffs, C●aus. 24 E. 3. d. 7. and the writs of Cl. 28 E. 1. d. 3. Claus. 5 E. 3. d. 25. & 12 E. 3. pars 2. d. 32. wherein the word BARONES is mentioned in some of them, and this Clause Cum Comitibus, BARONIBUS, & caeteris Proceribus, or Magnatibus Regni nostri, used in others of them, upon extraordinary occasions; bu● in no writs besides to my best remembrance; which run usually; Cum Praelatis et caeteris Proceribus, or Magnatibus, or Proceribus et Magnatibus dicti regni tractaturi, vestrumque Consilium impensuri; without the word BARONIBUS. Which being not so much as once mentioned in these ordinary (but only in 2. or 3. extraordinary) writs, it is most evident to all, that the issuing of such writs to any Knights, Esquires, or Gentlemen, to summon them to Parliaments, can neither create nor constitute them Barons by writ; because they neither style them (nor any of the Lords and Nobles, (but those two forementioned) ●arons, nor use the word BARO at all; but only Proceres, or Magnates.  
31. It is evident by all these writs, That the ancient temporal Earls, Lords, Barons, are most essential necessary constitutive Members of our English Parliaments and Great Councils, to which they always were, and aught of right to be summoned; and that no Parliament may or aught to be summoned or held without them, since both the writs to themselves, as likewise to the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors, Sheriffs of Counties, and Particular Cities and Corporations which are Counties within themselves, the Wardens of the Cinque Ports, Justices and other Assistants, in the bodies and essential parts of them, at lest once, twice, or more frequently thus recite; Quia, etc. ordinayimus quoddam Parliamentum apud We●●m. etc. CUM PROCERIBUS, or MAGNATIBUS, or MAGNATIBUS ET PROCERIBUS dicti regni nostri tenere, etc. personaliter intersitis Nobiscum, et cum caeteris, or cum PROCERIBUS, MAGNATIBUS, or MAGNATIBUS & PROCERIBUS, praedictis super dictis nego●iis tractaturi, vestrumque Consilium impensuri: Which I having more largely evidenced in my Plea for the Lords, and House of Peers, shall here no further insist on.  
32. That sometimes the King summoned some particular Bishops and Lords to treat with him about public businesses by writ, much like to a summons to Parliament, without summoning other Lords, for which take this precedent in lieu of more.  
Cl. 6 E. 2. d. 5. Rex venerabili in Christo Patri eadem gratia Bathon. et Wellen. Episcopo salutem. Quia pro diversis arduis negotiis Nos et terram Vasconiae tangentibus in brevie ad partes Franciae, concedente Domino, sumus profecturi, ac vobiscum super aliquibus quae Nos tangunt ante passagium nostrum ad partes praedictas habere volumus Colloquium et tractatum.

The like Episcopo Norwich, Waltero de Thorp, Gilberto de Middleton. T. ut supra, to come to the King apud Dover, another day.  
33 It is most apparent by these respective Clauses twice recited in all ancient and modern writs of summons to the Spiritual & Temporal Lords, & 4 or 5 times in the writs of Prorogation & Resummons to them (hereafter cited Section 7.) Vobiscum & cum caeteris Praelatis (or) cum Praelatis et caeteris Magnatibus et Proceribus dicti regni habere volumus (or proponimus) Colloquium & Tractatum. Vobis mandamus, etc. quod personaliter ad dictos diem & locum intersitis, Nobiscum et cum caeteris Praelatis, Magnatibus et Proceribus dicti regni super dictis negotiis tractaturi, vestrumque Consilium impensuri: which make not the least mention of their sitting, treating, or consulting with the Knights, Citizens, Burgesses or Commons of the Realm, or of theirs with the Lords. And by the like Clauses in the writs of Summons to the King's Council, and in the writs issued to Sheriffs for electing Knights, Citizens and Burgesses: The first part whereof recites, Quia nos de avisamento et assensu Consilii nostr●, etc. quoddam Parliamentum nostrum apud W. etc. t●neri ordinavimus, et ibidem cum Praelatis, Magnatibus & Proceribus dicti regni nostri Colloquiū●abere et Tractatu● (without mentioning any Conference or Treaty at all of the Commons jointly with the Prelates, Lords & Great men in the Parliament) who by the writ are to be elected, returned, summoned, empowered only; Ad faciendum et consentiendum hiis, quae tunc ibidem de Communi Consilio regni nostri, or Praelatorum, Magnatum & Procerum dicti regni nostri (divina favente Clementia, contigerit ordinari. That the Lords and Commons nev●r sat and consulted together as one entire House in the Parliaments of England, since their first Summons to our Parliaments, but that the● always sat and consulted asunder one from the other: Therefore Sir Edw. Cook his over-confident Assertion (without any real ground of Authority or reason) in his 4. Institutes, p. 4. Certain it is, that at the first both Houses ●ate together; as it appeareth by Modus tenendi Parliamentum (which directly avers the contrary, Sect. 15, 16▪ 17, 27.) and by 5 E. 3. n. 3. other places of the same Roll, and in 6 E. 3. in divers places it appeareth, that the Lords and Commons sat together; (when as both those Parliament Rolls and others un●er Ed. 3. expressly evidence the contrary, as I have 
* In my Preface to an Exact Abridgement of the Records of the Tower.  elsewhere fully evidenced) must be exploded as Apocryphal, and enumerated amongst his other mistakes.  
34 That the Temporal Lords could not impose any Tax, Aid or Subsidy upon the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors and Spiritual Lords or Clergy without or against their particular grants or assents in Convocation, no more than the Spiritual Lords and Clergy could impose any Aids or Taxes upon the Temporal Lords and Commons; as I have formerly evidenced (p. 113. to 120. 148, 149, 153, 154, 155.) For further evidence whereof I shall hereunto subjoin this ensuing memorable writ, casually omitted out of the first Section, pag. 31. where it should have been placed.

* Cambdeni Elizabetha, p. 144, 145.  Parliament of 39 Eliz. Anno 1597. Thomas Baron de la Ware petitioned the Queen to be restored to his ancient place and ●eat in Parliament, whose case was this. His father, William, by judgement of Parliament in the reign of Edward the 6. for endeavouring to poison his Uncle the Lord de la Ware, to gain his inheritance and honour; was disabled to enjoy any inheritance or honour that might descend to him by his Uncle's death: Afterwards in Queen Mary's reign he was condemned of High Treason; and not long after entirely restored, as if he had not been condemned. Being disabled by his first Sentence to inherit his Uncle's honour, upon his death, he was by Queen Elizab●ths special Favour and Letters Patents, created Baron de la Ware de novo, and sat only as a younger Baron then newly created, during his life; After his death, his son petitioning, to enjoy the place of his Ancestors in Parliament, the Queen referred the business to the Lords in Parliament; who finding the judgement against William his Father, to be only personal, and not to bind his children, and that the judgement given against him under Queen Mary, was no obstacle, both because he could not lose that Dignity and Honour by it, which then he had not (his Uncle being then alive) and because he was soon after entirely restored; and for that the ancient Dignity and Barony was not extinct by his new Creation, but only suspended during his life, being not vested in him at the time of his late Creation; the Lords thereupon, locum ●i avitum ADJUDICAVERUNT inter Barones Willoughbeium de Eresby, & Berkleium, in quo ritè locatur. In the same Parliament, it was resolved by the Lords in the case of Thomas Howard Baron of Walden, Knight of the G●rter; who being sick and unable to come to the House himself, Baron Scroop, as his Proxy, was brought into the Lord's House in his Parliamentary Robes between two Barons, the chief King of Arms going before him; where presenting his Patent and Creation, when the Lord Keeper of the Great Seal had read it, he was placed below all the rest of the Barons, though he were the younger son of a Duke, whose sons by an Order of Parliament made in the 6. year of King Henry the 8. ought to take place of all Viscounts, and other Barons, which the Lords then resolved, to be intended out of Parliament, but they ought to sit in the Parliament house only according to the time of their being created Barons; as Mr. Cambden relates out of the Lords I●urnal.

37. That the numbers of Earls, Barons, Temporal Lords and Great men summoned to our Parliaments and Great Councils, andentred after the Eodem modo, and Consimiles literae in the Rolls and Li●ts of Summons are oft times very various and different; there being many more of them summoned to some Parliaments and Great Council● than to others, as you may easily discern by comparing their Numbers, which I have here presented you with in the gross after every writ; the Prince of Wales himself, the Duke of Lancaster, and other Dukes, and Earls, as well as inferior Lords, Barons and Great men, being left out of some Lists of Summons, one, two, or three Parliaments and Great Councils together, or more; and then inserted again into others; the true reasons whereof I apprehend to be these ensuing.  
1. Their absence in foreign parts or elsewhere in the wars, or ●pon other special services of the King; in which cases no writ's of Summons issued to them; and if their names were entered in the Lists of the summons, they were usually canceled or razed out of them; witness the 
* Here p. 217, 218.  forecited entries, in the Lists o● Claus. 11 E. 3. pars 2. dors. 11. And Claus. 12 E. 3. pars 3. dors. 32.  
2ly. Their abode 
* Here p. 185, 186.  beyond the Seas upon their own particular occasions, Both which causes frequently happened during the wars with France, Scotland, and Ireland; and whiles our Kings and Nobles had any Lands and Possessions in France, Aquitain, Normandy, Anjow, Picardy, and other parts beyond the Seas. Many of the Earls, Lords, Barons, Great men, and our Kings themselves being oft times by reason of Wars, Treaties, Embassies, and defence of their Inheritances, absent in foreign parts, when Parliaments were summoned and held in England by the Custos Regni, or Commissioners; at which times I generally find there were fewer Earls, Barons and Noblemen summoned to our Parliaments and Great Councils, than in times of Peace, or when our Kings were personally present in England, most of the Earls and Temporal Lords attending on them in person in their wars and voyages into foreign parts, as on Ed. 3 H. 4 5, & 6.  
3ly. The Civil wars happening now and then between the King, Lords and Barons: upon which occasion some of the Temporal Lords whiles in open hostility and rebellion against the King, were now and then (as I conjecture) left out of the Lists of Summons, because they could not be conveniently summoned, or would not appear upon any summons if sent them.  
4ly. The attainders, or Outlawries of some Earls, Lords and Barons of High Treason for their wars, Insurrections, Rebellions, or other Treasons against the King; which disabled themselves and their Posterities to be summoned to Parliaments, till pardoned▪ or restored by the King to thei● honours, blood, Lordships, Baronies and L●nds.  
5ly. The Alienation of some Baronies by te●ure, by sales, gifts, marriages, escheats, or otherwise from one person, name, family to another, whereby the former Barons only by Tenure, were no more summoned after such Alienations, but the new Tenants who purchased or possessed them.  
6ly. The deceases of some Earls, Lords and Barons without heirs males of their Bodies, or the Infancy or nonage of their heirs males at the time of their death's, who usually had no writs of summons till their 
* Cook 4. Instir. p. 1.  full age; though the Prince of Wales, and Kings own sons were sometimes summoned to Parliaments during their Minority, as will appear by comparing the dates of their wries with the time of their births mentioned in our Historians, but few Nobles else were summoned during their Minority, for aught appears,

7ly. Our King's Liberty and Prerogative; who though obliged by the ancient Laws and customs of the Realm, the Constitutions of Clarindon, the Great Charter of King john, (

Sir Edward Cook informs us,) to summon EVERY ONE OF THE TEMPORAL LORDS BY DESCENT OR CREATION being of full age, by writs to our Parliaments when held; yet they have likewise a Freedom and Prerogative to create New Earls, Lords, Barons by special Writs or Patents, or to Summon what particular Gentlemen and others of Parts and Abilities they please to their Parliaments and Great Councils, to counsel and advise them, as the exigency of their affairs shall require, and they and their Counsel shall think necessary, pro hac vice tantum, or so oft as they deem necessary, without creating them Earls, Lords, or Barons for life or inheritance, by their general writs of Summons, as I have 
* See my Plea for the Lords Epistle to the Reader, and p. 147. to 161  elsewhere evidenced.  
38. That the Eodem mod● mandatum est, etc. And Consimiles literae diriguntur subscriptis, in the Clause Rolls, are for the most part general, without defining the Degrees and Qualities of the persons underwritten, except Dukes and Earls (specified by their Titles) but few else besides them. And sometimes special: As Eodem modo mandatum est Comitibus et Baronibus subscriptis, 
* Here p. 163, 164, 171, etc.  Consimile mandatum habent singuli Comites, BARONES, & MILITES subscripti. Consimiles Literae diriguntur Comi●●bus, BARONIBUS & MILITIBUS SUBSRIPTIS. So as it is a difficult matter certainly to define by the large list of names, which of them were real Lords and Barons of Parliament, and which not, except those only who were usually summoned and listed in the Rolls amongst the Lords and Barons, and their posterity after them; or such who are expressly styled either Barons or Lords in the writs or lists of names, of which I shall give you one instance. In the summons of Claus. 5 E. 2. m. 25. dorso. in the Eod●● modo mandatum est Comitibus et Baronibus subscriptis, there is this List of names, with a particular distinction made of their Degrees in the Margin; declaring all in that Catalogue, to be Earls and Barons; and in no Roll else upon my best observation.

As these last Alphabetical, Chronological Tables will be very useful to all Heralds, and the ancient Nobility of the Realm, and add much lustre to Mr. Brookes his Catalogue of Nobility; Mr. Vincent his Discovery of the Errors therein, james York his Union of Honours, William Martin his succession of the Nobility of England at the end of his History, and other Writers of our Nobility; (who were 
* Seldens Titles of Honor. pars 2. ch. 4. sect. 3. 4. 5. 6. to 20.  originally hereditary for the major part) so by the serious perusal of the later of them, you may clearly discern beyond all contradiction,  
1. That there are at least 98. Laymen in the later Catalogue summoned only once, and no more hui once, by our Kings at sundry times, to several Parliaments and 
* See Claus. 32 E 3. do●●. 14.  Great Counsels of the Realm, by the self same general Writs of Summons as the Earls, Peers, and Barons of the land were summoned, and enroled amongst them in the Lists of Summons and Resummons; and specially commanded by their Writs, Quod personaliter intersitis Nobiscum, ac cum Praelatis, & caeteris Magnatibus & Proceribus dicti Regni nost●i, super negotiis praedictis tractaturi, Vestrumque Consilium impensuri, etc. yet neither themselves, nor any of their Name or Posterity were ever summoned afterwards to any other Parliament or Great Council, for aught appears by the Clause Rolls, and Lists of persons summoned.  
2. That there are at least 50. others of them, thu● summoned by general Writs, and listed amongst the names of the temporal Lords, Barons, and Great men, some of them only, to 2. others of them, to 3. others, to 4. others, to 5. or 6. Parliaments and great Councils at several times; yet not one of them, or their Progeny afterwards called by Writ to any succeeding Parliaments or Councils.  
3. Th●t john ap Adam was called by Writ to no less than 16. successive Parliaments and Grand Councils of the Realm, under King Ed. 1. 2. and 3. Roger de Banent to 22. under Ed. 2. and 3. Guido de Bryan to 37. under E. 3. and R. 2. john de Claverings to 45. under E. 1. 2. and 3. Philip de Columbariis to 44. under E. 2. and 3. Sir William Herne to 8. under E. 3. R. 2. and H. 4. as likewise Walter de Manny, john de la Mare, Nicholas de Meyvill, Thomas de Musgrave, john Somery, Henry de Teyez, Thomas Vhtred, and some others, summoned by general Writs, to sundry Parliaments and Councils, by one or more of our Kings; yet they and their Posterities of the same name, were afterwards totally omitted out of the Writs, and lists of Summons, and never summoned again in succeeding times.  
4. That Gilbert and William de Acton, Richard and William de Aldeburge, Gilbert and William de Aton, (perchance the same with Acton) Robert and William de Felton, John, Richard, and Matthew Fitz john, Ralph and Robert de Grendon, Robert and Alexander de Hilton, Adam and Thomas de Novo Mercato, Hugh and Hugh de Sancto Phileberto, Giles and Richard de Playez, Miles and Nicholas de Stapleton, William and Theobald Trussell, William and John Tuchet, to omit others, were successively summoned to one, two, or three Parliaments, Great Councils, not immediately succeeding each other, but some good distance of years and time after the other, (during which, many Parliaments and Councils intervened, to which none of them were called by Writ) and then totally omitted▪ none of their name or posterity (for aught appears) being ever summoned again, as the last Table visibly demonstrates.  
From which 4. particulars, I conceive it experimentally evident beyond dispute, That as the King's Writs to his Counsel, Justices, and other Assistants (mentioned in the next Section) did neither constitute them nor their issues, Peers or Barons of the Realm, nor Assistants for life, though they sat, advised with the King & Lords upon all weighty occasions in the Lord's House:) and as the elections, retornes of Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, Barons of Ports, by the King's Writs of summons to Parliaments, and their sitting, voting in the Commons House in one or more Parliaments, for which they are elected; (though seconded with the King's Writs for levying their expenses after the Parliaments ended) do neither create them Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, Barons of Ports, nor Members of the Commons House, during their own lives, much less their issue Males in succession after them, but only during the session and continuance of these particular Parliaments and Councils for which they are elected and returned; which being once▪ determined, they presently ceased to be Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, Barons, in any succeeding Parliaments or Councils, unless newly elected and returned to serve in them by the King's new Writs, as our 
a 4 E 4 f 4 ●. B●ook▪ Officer. 25. 34 II. 8. c. 24.  Law books and experience resolve: so, the King's general Writs of summons directed to Knights, Gentlemen, and other Laics, who held not by Barony, and are no Lords nor Barons by special creations, or Descent from their Ancestors, to treat with the King and the rest of the Lords and Great men in the Lord's House, and their sitting therein once, twice, or oftener, by Virtue of such Writs, doth in truth and reality neither make, nor create themselves, nor their heirs Males after them, in point of law or right, either Peers, Lords or Barons of the Realm for life, or inheritance, nor give them (much less their issues after them) a right of summons to, or voice amongst those who are real Peers and Lords by Tenure, Creation or Descent, in all succeeding Parliaments; but only a temporary right to treat and advise with the King and other Lords in those Parliaments and Councils to which they are particularly summoned, and not in any others; as it did in the cases of Abbots, Priors, and other ecclesiastical persons thus summoned to, and sitting now and then in the Lord's House, but holding no Lands by Barony, whose general Writs of summons to, and session in Parliaments and Councils made neither themselves during their lives, nor their successors after them, actual Peers or Barons of the Realm, as

e Instit. p. 1.  Sir Edward's own doctrine) had been and should be bound Ex debito justitiae to summon every one of those Knights and Laymen once summoned to, and sitting in any of their Parliaments, and Great Councils (by virtue of their general Writs, without any other creation) during their natural lives, and their beires males being of full age after their deaths, to all succeeding Parliaments and Councils, and ought not to have omitted them out of the lists of summons at their pleasures, and their posterities after them in all succeeding Parliaments, as we experimentally find they did, without the least question, claim or complaint made by them or their heirs, for aught I find in Records or Histories. Whereas not only the Earls and Barons in the Parliamentary Great Council at London under King

Whereupon writs were issued to them; It being a great entrenchment upon the Liberty, Privileges, and Safety of the Peers of the Land, and of dangerous consequence for the King at his pleasure to omit any of them out of the Writs of summons, keep back their Writs, or restrain them from the Parliament after their receipt; as they then resolved in his case, and the

That they did it not out of any affront or opposition to the ancient Hereditary, real, spiritual or temporal Lords, Peers and Barons of the Realm, to seclude, overvote, baffle, disparage all or any of them; but by their advice, consents and approbation, as the Writs, Rolls, attest, 3ly. That their numbers usually, (except in 49 H. 3. when 
a See here p. 160. 161.  most of the Barons were slain at Evesham, or in actual arms against the King; or when some extraordinary aid, advise or assistance was required of them) were not very great nor considerable; the ancient spiritual, and temporal Lords and Barons, being usually double, treble, quadruple to them; and for the most part, six or ten to one, as you may easily discern by comparing their names in every list of summons. 4ly. That there are very few Precedents under King Edward the 3. of an● considerable numbers of such spiritual or temporal persons called to his Parliaments, but only to one general Council, in 32 E. 3. d. 14. 5ly. That after King Edward the 3d. his reign, there is not one precedent of any Archbishop, Bishop, Abbot, Prior or religious persons, summoned to any Parliament to my remembrance, but only of those who held by Barony, and were constantly summoned as Spiritual Peers to all our Parliaments. And very few Precedents, if any, of a Knight, Gentleman, or other Layman whatsoever, summoned by any general Writs to the Lords House, to treat and consult together with them, unless they were ancient Earls, Lords, or Barons of the Realm, or newly created such by special Patents, before their summons, or by special clauses of creation in the Wries by which they were summoned, as all the lists of summons in the Clause Rolls, the precedent Table, the Statutes of 5 R. 2. Stat. 2. c. 4. 31 H. 8. c▪ 10. and Mr. Martyns' Catalogue of them at the end of his History, clearly manifest. 6ly. That in my best observation there is no precedent from 49 H. 3. till the last Parliament of King Charles, nor in any age before, where any of the ancient Nobility, Peers, Lords or Barons of the Realm, at least any considerable number of them, (unless such who were actually outlawed, or attainted of High Treason, or 
b See here p. 217. 218. 219.  absent in foreign parts, or in actual service in the Wars, or under age) were omitted out of the Writs of summous, or secluded from sitting in the Lord's House in any Parliament by force or frand, (unless by 
c See here p. 221. 222. My Plea for the Lords. p. 278. 279. 282.  Mor●imer, in the Parliament at Salisbury, An. 2. E. 3. and in 21 R. 2.) nor of others, who were no real Lords, Peers by Patent, Tenure, or other legal creation, summoned to the Lords House out of England (much less out of Scotland and Ireland) to supplant them, or supply their places, under any name, notion, or pretext whatsoever. Neither were they or any of them, secluded, disinherited of their seats, Votes, Peerage in Parliament, 
d See Mr. R●shwor●hs Historical Collections p▪ ● 40 ●41. 242. 243. ●44. ●67. to 376.  without or before the least legal hearing, trial, impeachment, or conviction whatsoever, of any capital crime which might forfeit their Peerage, against all the Great Charters, Statutes, Records, Declarations, Orders, Ordinances, Votes, Protestations, Oathts, Covenants, (mentioned in my Plea for the Lords, and House of Peers) which ratify and perpetuate this their Birthright to them and their Posterities, and the very law of all Nations. 6ly. It is very observable, that both Houses of Parliament in their Propositions sent to King Charles at their last Treaty with him in the Isle of Weight, to prevent the creation and introduction of any New Lords into future Parliaments, to the prejudice, seclusion, or overvoting of the Ancient Nobility, or Commons house, did amongst other things propound. 
d See the Proposiri●ns & my Speech in Parliament. p. 43. 44.  That BY ACT OF PARLIAMENT, all LORDS and PEERS made by the King since Edward Lord Littleton deserted the Parliament, and carried away the Great Seal the 21. of May, 1642. should be unlorded, unpeered, set by, and their Titles of Honour, Patents, revoked, declared null and void to all intents, and never hereafter put in use. And that NO PEER WHICH SHOULD BE HEREAFTER MADE BY THE KING, HIS HEIRS OR SUCCESSORS (who have only and solely a just, legal power to create them, and none else, as they hereby declare) SHALL SIT IN THE PARLIAMENT OF ENGLAND WITHOUT CONSENT OF BOTH HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT. Which the King then fully and freely consented to without any limitation or exception whatsoever. Since which Proposition of both Houses, and concession by the King, how any person or persons who assented to, or approved thereof in any kind▪ as reasonable, or beneficial to the public; without any special Patent or creation from the King, his heirs or successors; and without the consent of the House of Lords, and ancient Peers of the Realm (the only proper members of & 
* As King james acknowledged. See Mr. R●shworths Historical Collections p. 25. to 34.  judges in it) & of the Commons House, (yea against both their consents and approbations) can justly, by any other authority, Patent, Writ, or instrument whatsoever, assume unto themselves the Titles of Lords or Barons of the Realm, or of the Lords House itself; to the disseasing, disinheriting, suppressing of the ancient undoubted Peers and House of Lords: Or how any who have Voted down, declared against, and abolished the Lords and Lords House, in sundry 
e Febr. 6. March 17. 19▪ An. 1648.  printed Papers, as Useless, Dangerous, Inconvenient, Oppressive to the People, obstructive to the Proceedings in Parliament, and the like; and afterwards by several Votes, and printed 
f january 2 An. 1649.  New Knacks, took and subscribed themselves, and prescribed to all others under severest penalties, a public Engagement, To be ●rue and faithful to the Commonwealth of England▪ as it was then established, (as they thought by themselves, though the event soon after proved the contrary) Without a King or House of Lords; can or dare become this very Selfsame Useless, dangerous, oppressive, obstructive, grievance, etc. themselves; and against their own Votes, Declarations, Acts, Subscriptions, Engagements, stile or assert themselves to be either real Lords, or an House of Lords, without the greatest Prevarication, Contradiction to, and Apostasy from their own former Principles; or how they can ever probably expect that either the ancient Lords or Commons of England should submit unto them as such, let their own judgements, consciences and reasons resolve them. The rather, because divers of the Earls, Nobles made by King Stephen were styled, yea deposed as mere Imaginary, false Earls and Lords, (Quosdam Imaginarios et Pseudo-Comites) and both their Titles and Crown lands given them by Stephen (though King de facto) resumed by King Henry the 2. right heir to the crown, because Stephen was an Usurper; & Chartae Invasoris praejudicium legitimo Principi minime facere deberent, as the Chronicle of Normandy, the Book of the Abbey of Waverly,

b Hist. l. 2. c. 2.  Gulielmus Neubrigensis, and Chronicle of Bromton. Col. 1046. inform us. Whose Precedent may justly deter them from any unjust disseisin of the ancient Lords, and setting themselves in their Places.  
And thus much for my Observations on, and from the Writs in this second Section.    

SECTION 3.  
Of Writs of Summons to the King's Council and other Ordinary Assistants to the Lords in Parliaments and Parliamentary Councils; with annotations on them.  
THe next Writs of Summons after those to the Spiritual and Temporal Lords entered in the ancient Clause Rolls, are those to the King's Council, different only in one or two Clauses from the former, in which else they usually accorded. These persons commonly summoned to Parliaments as the King's Council by distinct writs from the Lords, as ordinary Assistants both to the King and them in all causes, controversies, Questions of Moment, were mostly the King's Great Officers, as well Clergymen as Secular persons, who were no Lords nor Barons of the Realm; as namely his Treasurer, Chancellor of the Exchequer, Judges of his Courts at Westminster, Justices in Eyre, justice's assigns, Barons of his Exchequer, Clerks, Secretaries of his Council, and sometimes his Sergeants at Law, with such other Officers and Persons whom our Kings thought me●●o summon.  
The first writ of this kind I yet find extant in our Records is thus entered in Clause 23 E. I. dorso 9

Quia super jure et dominio quae No●is in Regno Scotiae competit, & quae Antecessores nostri Reges Angliae in eodem Regno Scotiae habuerunt, temporibus retroactis cum jurisperitis et ceteris de Consilio nostro Colloquium habere volumus et tractatum. Vobis mandamus firmiter injungentes, quod Quatuor vel quinque de discretioribus et in ●ure scripto magis expertis Universitatis praedictae ad Parliamentum nostrum apud Lincoln mittatis. Ita quod sint ibi in Octabis Sancti Hillarii prox. futur. ad ultimum, Nobiscum & cum caeteris de Consilio nostro super praemissis tractaturi, suumque consilium impensuri; Et hoc sicu● Nos & honorem ac commodum Regni nostri diligitis nullatenus omittatis. T. Rege ut supra.  
Eodem modo mandatum est Cancellar. et Universitati Cantebr. quod mittant ad dictum Parliamentum duo vel tres de discretioribus et magis in ●ure scripto expertis, etc.  
Then follows a writ to sundry Abbots, Priors, Deans and Chapters, (with the same recital) Quia super jure & Dominio, etc. (as in the last) De mittendi● Chronic ad Parliamentum etc. of which in its due place, more fully. The occasion and result whereof, and of sending these Lawyers from the Universities to the Parliament, you may read at large in Matthew Westminster. Anno 1302. p. 419. to 438. and in Thomas de Walsingham. Hist. Angl. p. 32. to 58.  
Before I proceed to the ensuing Writs, I shall here observe, 1. That this recital, Quia super jure & Dominio quae Nohis in regno Scotiae competit, etc. is not mentioned at all in the Writs of Summons to the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors, temporal Lords, Justices, or Sheriffs of Counties; but only to the Clergymen of the King's Council, Universities, and to those Abbots, Priors, Deans and Chapters, who were to search and send their Chronicles to the Parliament, that had any thing in them concerning the King's right to Scotland. 2ly. That (for the Honour of my Quondam nursing Mother the University of Oxford) she is here preferred before the University of Cambridge; and her Chancellor and she enjoined to send 4. or 5. of the discre●test and most exact Lawyers of the said University to the Parliament, to treat with the King and the rest of his Council, concerning his ancient right and dominion to the Realm of Scotland; whereas the Chancellor and University of Cambridge, are commanded to send only 2. or 3. such Lawyers of it for that purpose. 3ly. That these Lawyers sent from the Universities upon this special occasion, were only extraordinary assistants, there being no such precedent of any thus sent to succeeding Parliaments.  
The 6. Writ of this kind is in Claus. 30. E. 1. d. 13. Rex dilecto● & fidelissimo suo Rogero la Brabazun, salutem. Quia super quibusdam arduis negotiis, Nos & totum Regnum nostrum specialiter tangentibus, Vobiscum & Cum caeteris de Consilio Nostro habere Volumus colloquium & tractatum, Vobis mandamus firmiter injungentes, quod in Octabis Nativitatis Sancti Johannis Baptistae prox. futur. ad ultimum apud Westm. omnibus modis personaliter inters●●is

Consimiles literae diriguntur subscriptis, viz. 33. more Judges and others, mentioned in the former Catalogues.  
Anno. 34. E. 1. dors. 2. There is no Writ to the Assistants entered in the Roll: but 16. of them only (Justices and Clergymen) are named in the Eodem modo, after the Lords and great men, with a●little space between their names for distinction sake.  
The next Writ of this kind is thus briefly registered, Claus. 1. E. 2. dors. 19

The next Writ is in Claus. 1. E. 2. dors. 8. Rex dilecto & fideli suo Rogero de Brabazon, salutem. Quia etc. ut supra (p. 15.) Vobis mandamus firmiter injungentes, quod dictis die & loco omnibus aliis praetermissis personaliter intersitis ibidem, Nobiscum & Cum caeteris de Consilio Nostro super dictis negotiis tractatur. vestrumque consilium impensur. & hoc nullatenus om●ttatis. T. R. apud Westm. x. Die Martii.  
Consimiles literae diriguntur, to 35. others, Justices, and Laymen, and but to 2. Clerks.  
In Claus. 2. E. 2. d. 14. 11. 20 Schedula, there are 4. Writs of the same form with the last. 
* With cum caeteris de Consilio nostro, twice recited in 2. of them, and bu●once in the o●ther.  The 1. to Roger de Brabazon, and 34. others, whereof one only was a Clerk. the 2. to him, and 16. others, whereof 7. were Clerks: the 3d. to him and 22. others, whereof 6. were Clerks; and two others Escheators, the one ultra Trentam, the other citra Trentam; The 4th. to him and 6. more, the one of them a Clerk.  
The next Writ is in Claus. 4. E. 2. dors. 1. somewhat different from the former.

From which writ is apparent; 1. That the Justices of Assizes were usually summoned by writ to Parliaments, as Members of the King's Council; as the words cum caeteris de Consilio nostro, thrice repeated in it and in other writs, demonstrate. 2ly. That their summons by writ to attend and counsel the King in Parliament; was a super sedeas to them to take Assizes during the Parliament; and their proceeding to take Assizes notwithstanding, inconsistent with their attendance in Parliament, yea a contempt and offence punishable by the King. 3ly. That the 
* See Cooks 4 Instit. p. 24.  Assizes and Suits of private persons ought to give place to public affairs of the King and kingdom in Parliament, and to be deferred, when they may hinder or disturb the affairs of Parliament, or keep any Members or Assistants from their personal attendance in them, when summoned to them.  
In the Clause Roll of 8. E. 2. dors. 35. There is no Writ at all to the King's Justices and Council; but in the Eodem modo, I find sundry of them here and there promiscuously inserted amongst the Baron's names, and not after them, as usually in other Rolls, sc. johanni de Hotham, Waltero de Norwico, johanni de Foxle, Rogero la Brabazon, Gilberto de Roubery, Willielmo I●ge, johanni de Insula, Henr. le Scrop, Henr. Spigurnel, johanni bensted, Lamberto de Trikingham; always listed amongst the Justices, and King's Council in precedent Rolls, and in 7 E. 2. d. 27. the very next before this, and those succeeding it. In Cl. 8. E. 2. d. 29. the Council are coupled together with the Barons in the Eodem modo mandatum est, without any writ, with a space of distinction between them, all of them after the Lords, without intermixture with them, being in all 33.  
In Cl. 9 E. 2. d. 22. They are named only in the eodem modo, with a small distance after the Lords, being in all 34. without any special writ entered. In Claus. 12. E. 2. d. 29. in Cedula, There is no special writ to any of the Council entered, but only a list of their names in the Eodem modo, being 24. in number, 2. of them escheators, Vltra & citra Trentam; others of them Deacons, Archdeacon's, Clergymen and justices, with Magistro Iohan● de Walewayn Thesaur. Regis. And likewise in Claus. 12. d. 11. they are listed in the same manner, being but 25. whereof two were the Escheators forenamed. And in Claus. 13 E. 2. dors. 13. they are listed in the same form being 25. and in Claus. 14 E. 2. d. 29. where they are 32.  
Claus. 14. E. 2. d. 5. there issued a writ in the usual form, Willielmo de Bereford, and 37 others, whereof 2. were Escheators, and the Dean and a Canon of York two others; Cl. 15 E. 3. d. 16. there is the like writ sent to him, and 33. more. Cl. 16. E 2. d. 26. the like writ to him and 22. others. And Cl. 19 E. 2. d. 7. the like writ to him and 22. besides; the Dean of York being one of them, as in most of the precedent lists. Cl. 20 E. 2. d. 4. the writ issued Waltero de Norwico, and 22. more.  
In Clause 1 E. 3. pars 2. d. 16. there is this writ issued, somewhat different from the precedent.  
Rex dilecto et fideli suo Waltero de Norwico, salutem. Quia super magnis et arduis negotiis Nos et statum Regni nostri tangentibus, Vobiscum, et cum Praelatis, Magnatibus et Proceribus, ac cum caeteris de Consilio nostro apud Lincoln. in crastino Exaltationis Sanctae Crucis prox. futur. Colloquium habere ordinavimus et Tractatum. Vobis mandamus firmiter injungentes, quod omnibus aliis praetermissis dictis die et loco personaliter intersitis Nobiscum, si interesse possumus, seu interveniente impedimento, deputandis à Nobis, super dictis negotiis tractatur. vestrumque consilium impen sur. Et hoc nullatenus omittatis. Teste Rege apud Stanhope, 7, die Augusti.  
Eodem modo mandatum est subscriptis, viz. 33. 0thers there named. And in the same Roll, dors. 3. there is the like writ to him, and 7. more only.  
The writ Claus. 2 E. 3. dorse 31. thus varies from the former.  
Rex dilecto et sideli suo Waltero de Norwico, salutem. Cum in Parliamento nuper apud Eborum convocato magna et ardua negotia proposita fuerunt, quae propter absentiam quorundam Praelatorum, Magnatum, et Procerum Regni nostri tunc non poterunt terminari; super quibus et aliis diversis Negotiis de assensu Praelatorum, ac Magnatum et Procerum in eodem Parliamento nostro tunc existentium, apud Northhampton, à die Paschae prox. futur. in tres Septimanas Parliamentum tenere, et Vobiscum, ac cum Praelatis, Magnatibus, et Proceribus Regni nostri, et eum caeteris de Con● silio nostro Colloquium et Deliberationem habere volumus. Vobis mandamus firmiter injungentes, quod omnibus aliis praetermissis dictis die et loco personaliter intersitis, Nobiscum super dictis Negotiis tractatur: vestrumque Consilium impensur. Et hoc sicut Nos ac honorem nostrum, ac salvationem Regni nostri diligitis nullo modo omittatis. Teste Rege ut supra.  
Eodem modo mandatum est, to x. more: the first of them Magistro Gilberto de Middleton Archid: Northhampton. Clause 23: of the same Roll, there is the like writ (different only in the recital, as to the Archbishop, p. 28.) to x. Justices and Assistants, the same with the former; and so in dorse 15.  
In Claus. 3 E. 3. d. 19 there is no writ entered to the Justices and Council, but I find them promiscuously inserted amongst the Lords in the Eodem modo mandatum est; where I meet with Magist: Rico: Erinm, (perchance Ermine) Magist: Antonio de Bek, Decano Ecclesiae beatae Mariae Lincoln, Galfro: le Scrop, Wil●●: le Herle, Roberto de Malberthorp, Rico: de Willug●by, johi: de Traverse, Ade de Herewinton, Henry le Scrop, Roberto de Wodehouse, Archid: Richmond, Willo: le Dennie, Io●i: de Cante●rigg Rico: de Aldeburge, Magist. Gilberto de Middleton, Archid: Northampton, and Rob., Baynard; inserted into the List of the Lords, being usually listed amongst the Justices and Council, in precendent and subsequent Rolls.  
Clause 4 E. 3. d. 41. the writ runs in this most usual form, except in the recital.  
Rex dilecto et fideli fuo Roberto de Wodehouss Archid. Richmond. Thesaurar. suo, salutem. Quia pro magnis et arduis negotiis Nos et statum Regni nostri multipliciter contingentibus, Parliamentum nostrum apud Winton die Dominica prox. ante festum Sancti Gregorii Papae prox. futur. tenere; et Vobiscum, ac cum caeeteris de Consilio nostro habere Colloquium disposuimus et tractatum. Vobis mandamus firmiter injungentes, quod omnibus aliis praetermissis dictis die et loco personaliter intersitis Nobiscum, ac cum caeteris de Consilio nostro, super dictis negotiis tractatur. vestrumque consilium impensur. Et hoc nullatenu● omittatis. T. ut supra, p. 30.  
Eodem modo mandatum est subscriptis, viz. 8. more: Ibidem, dors. 13. the like Writ (except in the Prologue, Qualiter, etc. as p. 31.) issued to this Treasurer, and the same 8. persons more: But in dorso 23. there is no writ entered, but only the names of 5. of the Council, in the Eodem modo after the Lords, with a space for distinction.  
Claus. 5 E. 3. dors. 25. the Writ issues; Dilect● & fideli suo Galfrido Le Scrop, Capitali justiciario suo, etc. (as p. 32.) in the recital, and then in the usual form, as the precedent writ in the later Clause: there being 12 more names in the Eodem modo: Dorse 7. the like writ issued to him and x. more: both of them entered after the Writs to the Sheriffs and Warden of the Cinque-ports, (usually registered before them, next after the writs to the Lords in all precedent Rolls, but frequently after them in most Rolls after this.) Clause 6 E. 3. d. 9 19 & 36. there are three writs of this nature entered after those to the Sheriffs and Wardens of the Cinque-ports, issued to this Chief Justice Scrop, the first to 7, the second to 30, the third to 9 more, Justices and others. Claus. 7 E. 2. pars 2. dors. 3. the writ entered is to him, and 20. besides, after all the rest of the Writs but one, (as in many more ensuing Rolls) and so Claus, 8 E. 3. d. 18. to him and 22. more, whereof the Chancellor of the Exchequer is one, and the King's Treasurer another.  
Claus: 9 E. 3. d. 8. the Writ entered is to to the same Geoffry Le Scrop, and 15 others; and Dorse 28. to him and 22 more: But in Claus. 10. dors. 1, & 5. the Writs enroled issued, Magistro Roberto de Stratford, Archid. Cantuar: and 14 more in both lists, whereof Roberto Parnings, Willo: Scot, Simoni Trewosa, Servientibus Regis, are 3. These are the two first Eodem modo mandatum est I meet with, wherein the King's Sergeants at Law were summoned to Parliaments, who are last named in both these Lists.  
Clause 11 E. 3. pars 1. d. 15. After the Lords, 5 are registered, with justice: added to them, and 3 besides. In d. 8. there is only this entry, Eodem mode mandatum est dilecto Cler. suo Mro: Joh: de Ufford, mutatis mutandis after the Lords names: to which 9 of the Counsils & Justice's names are conjoined without distinction, before this entry. But in Clause 11 E. 3. part 2. dorse 40. the writ entered is directed Rob: de Stratford Electo Cicestr. different in the recital from the writs to the Temporal and Spiritual Lords in this Membrana, and agreeing with that in Claus. 11. pars 1. m, 8. to which it should refer: upon which Account I shall transcribe it.  
Rex dilecto Clerico fuo Mro. Rob: de Stratford, Electo Cicestr. salutem. Quia super certis responsionibus solennibus Nunciis nostris per Nos ad partes Franciae ultimo pro quibusdam negotiis nostris ibidem expediendis transmissis datis, necnon pro quibusdam aliis negotiis urgentis●limis, Nos et statum Regni nostri, ac aliarum terrarum nostrarum intimè contingentibus, cum Praelatis, Magnatibus, et Proceribus regni nostri apud Westm. die Veneris prox. ante festum Sancti Michaelis prox. futur. ordinavimus habere Colloquium et Tractatum. Vobis mandamus firmiter injungentes, quod omnibus aliis praetermissis dictis die et loco personaliter intersitis Nobiseum, etc. ut supra. T. ut supra.  
Eodem modo mandatum est, etc. to 10. more, most of them Justices, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer.  
Here a Bishop elect is summoned as one of the Council; though usually summoned as a Spiritual Peer; and the Guardian of the Spiritualties of the Bishopric of Chichester, sede vacant, summoned in the list amongst the Bishops, not this Bishop elect, who is summoned as a Bishop the next year and Parliament; Claus. 12 E. 3. d. 11. the Writ issued Galfrido Lescrop and 12. more, whereof the King's Treasurer, and Chancellor of the Exchequer, were two.  
Claus. 12● E. 3. pars 2. d. 32. the writ entered, issued johanni de Ston●re, with the same recital as p. 41, 42. and then Quod omnibus aliis praetermissis intersitis cum dicto Custo●e, et cum caeteris de Consilio praedicto, super dictis negotiis tractatur. etc.  
Eodem modo mandatum est to 13 others, whereof the King's Treasurer, and Chancellor of the Exchequer are two▪ and the last Robto: de Sadyngton Capitali Ba●dni de Scaccario: the first I observe summoned by this Title. Claus. 13 E. 3. pars 2. d. 28. the writ entered is of the selfsame form with the last: and to the same 13 persons, though not listed in the same order; and with this addition of Regis, after Staccario, to the Chief Baron. Claus. 13 E. 3. pars 2. d. 1. we have the same form of writ to Stonore and 13 more, the very same as in the two former lists: Claus. 14 E. 3. pars 1. d. 33. the like to him, those 13, and one more: and Pars 1. d. 23. to him and 14 more.  
The Writ in Claus. 15. E. 3. pars 1. d. 37. issued in usual form, Dilcto et fideli suo Roberto de Parnings Thesaurar: suo, and 9 others. Claus. 17 E. 3. pars 1. d. 25. Roberto de Sadington, and only 6. more. Claus. 18 E. 3. pars 1. d. 14. Willo: Scot, and but 4. more, Cl. 20 E. 3. pars 2. d. 22. Willo: Scot, Quod personal●●er intersitis Nabis●um si praesentes fuorimus ibidem▪ seu cum Custode dicti Regni nostri si abesse nos contigerit, & cum caeteris de Consilio nostro, super dictis negotiis, etc. and 14 others, the two last Roberto de Thorpe Servienti Regis, Henry de Grene, Servienti Regis. Claus. 21 E. 3. pars 2. d. 9 Willielmo de Thorpe (with the same recital, as to the Archbishop, Here, p. 52, 53. and the same Seire vos volumus, quod dictum Parliamentum non ad auxilia, etc. as in that writ:) Eodem modo mandatum est to 16 others, the 4 last the King's Sergeants at Law: namely Roberto de Thorpe Servienti Regis, Henr: de Grene Servienti Regis, Willo: de Notton Servienti Regis, Thomae de Seton Servienti Regis. Claus. 22 E. 3. pars 1. d. 32. the writ issued Willo: de Thorpe, and 16 more, the 4 last the King's Sergeants forenamed. This writ is registered next after the Lords: As is that in Clause 22 E. 3. pars 2. d. 7. issued to judge Thorpe, and 15 more, the 4. last the King's Sergeants forenamed.  
In Claus. 24 E. 3. pars 2. d. 3. the writ runs in this form.  
Rex dilecto et fideli suo Willo: de Shareshull, salut: Quia pro quibusdam arduis et urgen●ibus negotiis, Nos, & statum, et bonum regimen Regni nostri Angliae, et aliarum terram, et Dominiorum nostrorum Parl: nostrum apud Westm. in Octabis Purificationis beatae Mariae Virgins prox. futur. tenere; & cum Praelatis, Magnatibus, et Proceribus dicti Regni nostri Angliae, & aliis de Consilio nostro, Colloquium habere volumus & tractatum. Vobis mandamus, etc. personaliter intersitis Nobiscum, & cum dictis Praelatis, Magnasibus et Proceribus dicti regni, Super dictis negotiis tractatur. etc.  
Eodem modo mandatum est to 12. more, the 4 last are the King's forecited Sergeants at Law: Claus. 25 E. 3. pars 1. d. 5. the same form of writ as the last, issued to William Shareshull, and 13 others, whereof the last are the 4. Sergeants. Claus. 26 E. 3. d. 14. there are two writs registered one after another; the first to Shareshull, and 7 Justices more: The 2. Dilecto Clerico suo Magistro johanni de Leech, and 8 Masters more. So Claus. 27 E. 3. d. 12. there are two distinct writs to the same parties, and to 6 Justices, and 3. more Masters.  
In Claus. 28 E. 3. d. 26. There is only one Writ to William de Shareshull, of the same form with that of 24 E. 3. and to 11 more, whereof 4 are the King's Sergeants; namely, Thorp and Notton forecited, Willo: de Skipwith, Servienti Regis, Ioh: Mowbrey Servienti Regis, last named. The same form of writ to him, & 13 others is registered Claus. 29 E. 3. d. 8. wherein the Kings said Sergeants are last listed. Claus. 31 E. 3. d 21. there is the like writ to him and 14 others; where Notton, Skipwith, and Mowbrey are listed without the addition of King's Sergeants: Claus. 31 E. 3, d. 2. the like writ is entered to him, and 15 others, without the addition of Sergeants to those so styled in former lists.  
The writ in Claus. 34 E. 3. d. 4. to William de Shareshull and 13 others, is only, & cum Praelatis et caeteris Magnatibus et Proceribus dicti Regni Colloquium habere, etc. Dictis die et loco personaliter intersitis Nobiscum, et cum dictis Praelatis, Magn●tibus et Proceribus dicti Regni, etc. without the clause, & caeteris de Consilio nostro, in either place, or any other part of the writ. So is the writ Claus. 36 E. 3. d. 16. Henr: Grene, and 8 others: and Claus: 37 E. 3. d. 22. to him and 8. more; and Claus: 38 E. 3. d. 3. to him, and but 5 besides: and Claus: 39 E. 3. d. 2. johi: Knyvet, and 13 more, whereof Mro: Thomae Young office: Cur: Cancel. is one● the first I find so styled in the Rolls: The like writ johanni Knyvet, is in Claus: 42 E. 3. d. 22. and 8 others: and Claus: 43 E. 3. d. 24. ● Claus: 44 E. 3. d. 1. the same in form, persons, number, without any Clause cum caeteris de Consilio nostro, in them.  
There is this form of writ in Claus: 46 E. 3. d. 11. different from the precedent.  
Rex dilecto et fideli suo johi: de Cavendish, Capitali Justiciario suo, salutem. Qui● pro quibusdam arduis, etc. (ut supra, p. 67:) teneatnr, et cum Praelatis, Magnatibus et Proceribus Regni nostri Angliae tractatus et Colloquium habeantur. Vobis mandamus firmiter injungentes, quod omnibus aliis praetermissis, dictis die et loco personaliter intersitis Nobiscum, si praesentes fuerimus ibidem, seu cum Ricardo filio Carissimi Primogeniti nostri Edwardi Principis Aquitaniae & Walliae Custode Regni nostri Angliae, et locum nostrum tenente in eodem Regno, si abesse Nos contigerit, et CUM CAETERIS DE CONSILIO NOSTRO, super dictis Negotiis tractaturi, vestrumque consilium impensuri; et hoc nullatenus omittatis. Teste ut supra. Without any Eodem modo to others. Claus. 47 E. 3. d. 13. there is a writ issued to him, with a different recital (as p. 67.) and a personaliter intersitis Nobiscum, et cum caeteris de Consilio nostro, with Consimilia Brevia to 6 more Justices: The like writ to him is in Clause 48 E. 3. dors. 24. with Consimilia Brevia to 8 others, whereof two are Masters: These writs are entered after those to the Sheriffs, and before the writs to the Warden of the Cinque-ports; as the like writ to him is, Claus. 50 E. 3. pars 2. dors. 6. with Consimilia Brevia to 8 mo●e; the two last Mro: johanni Barnet, and Mro: Nicholas de Chaddeston, as in the last before.  
The next writs of this nature, are in Claus: 1 R. 2. dors: 37: Claus: 2 R. 2. d: 13. both directed johanni Cavendish, Capitali Justiciar: suo, and 11 others in both Rolls, with a personaliter intersitis Nobiscum, & cum caeteris de Consilio nostro super dictis negotiis tractaturi, etc. But that of Claus: 3 R: 2 dors; 32. runs thus: Quod omnibus aliis praetermissis dictiss die & loco personaliter intersitis Nobiscum, & CUM CAETERIS PRAELATIS, MAGNATIBUS, ET PROCERIBUS Regni▪ nostri DE CONSILIO NOSTRO tractaturi, vestrumque Consilium impensuri, etc. The like Ordinary writ issued to Cavendish and 9 others: Claus: 4 R: 2: dorso 32: After which this form of writ is registered.  
Rex dilecto Servienti suo David Hannemere, salutem: Quia de avisamento, etc. usque tractatum; tunc, Mandamus firmiter injungentes, &c: quod di●tis die et loco personaliter intersitis ad faciendum pro Nobis et expeditione negotiorum nostrorum quod ad tunc ibidem fuerit faciend: et hoc Nullatenus omittatis. Teste Rege apud Westm, 26 die Augusti.  
In the Clause Roll of 5. R. 2. dorso 40. The writ entered is directed Roberto Tresilian Capitali Justic suo, and 7 more. Claus. 6 R▪ 2. pars 1. d. 4. & 7. to him and 8 others in both dorses. Claus. 7 R. 2. d. 10. & 17. to him and 7. others in both. Claus. 8 R. 2. d. 35. to him and 10. besides, Claus. 9 R. 2. d. 45. to him and 9 more. Claus. 10 R. 2. d, 42. to him and 12 others. Claus. 11 R. 2. d. 24. to him and 11 more. Claus. 12 E. 3. d. 42. the writ issued Waltero Clopton Capitali justic. suo, and 7 others. Claus. 13 R. 2. pars 1. d. 6. & Cl. 14 R. 2, d. 42. to him and 12 more. Cl. 16 R: 2. d. 37. to him and 12 others, whereof the chief Baron of the Exchequer was one. Clause 16 R. 2. d, 23. to him and 11 others: and d: 32 to him and 12. more. Claus. 17 R. 2. d. 30. to him and 12 others. Cl. 18 R. 2. d: 23. to him and 10 besides. Claus. 20 R. 2. d. 11. to him and 11 more. Cl. 21 R 2. d. 27. and Cl. 23 R. 2. d. 3. to him, and 11 others.  
The writ in Claus: 1 H: 4: d. 37. is directed Waltero Clopton Capitali justic: suo, and 12 others: and still to the Chief Justice for the time being throughout his reign; all or most of the rest of the Assistants being Justices, whose names you may find in the ensning Table.  
The writ in Claus: 1 H: 5: dors: 9 issued Willielmo Hankeford Capitali justic: suo, etc. But that in dors: 37: Willielmo Gascoigne, Capitali justiciario suo, and 11 others, most, or all Justices, and so throughout his reign.  
In Henry the 6. his reign, Claus. 1 H. 6. dors. 22. the writ is directed Willo: Hankeford Capitali justic: suo, and 10 more Justices; and so in other years to the Chief Justice for the time being, and other Justices.  
In Cl. 1 E: 4. d. 34. the writ issued johi: Markham and 12 Justices and Lawyers besides; and so throughout his reign to the Chief Justice and Justices for the time being, and few else besides them.  
Of later times both the Chief Justices, Chief Baron, and all the King's Justices, Barons of the Exchequer, Sergeants at Law, the Mr: of the Rolls, & some Masters of the Chancery, have been usually summoned as Assistants, to counsel and advise both the King and Lords in all matters of Law and difficulty, wherein their advice is necessary, as also to carry messages, Bills and Orders from the Lords to the Commons House, and return answers from them upon such occasions, when they please to return answers by them, and not by Messengers of their own.  

Useful Observations upon the precedent Writs to, and concerning the King's Council summoned to Parliaments and Parliamentary Councils.  
IT is observable, 1. That in many ancient Rolls and Lists of Summons to Parliaments and Parliamentary Councils, there is no mention of any writs or summons at all to any of the King's Council, Justices, Officers, or others, as there is in those forecited; as namely in the summons in Claus: 49 H. 3. d: 11. 23 E: 1. d. 2, 3, 4. 24 E. 1. d. 7. 25 E. 1. d. 6. 27 E. 1. d. 9 16. 28 E. 1. d. 16, 17. 30 E. 1. d. 9 32 E. 1. d. 2. Cl. 33 E. 1. d. 8. Cl. 35 E. 1. d. 13. Cl. 3 E. 2. d. 16, 17. 7 E. 2. d. 16. 9 E. 2. d. 22, 18 E. 2. d. 5. 21, 34. 20 E. 2. d. 4. Cl. 5 E 3. pars 2. d. 7. 1● E. 3. p. 1. d. 15. 16 E. 3. pars 1. d. 39 16 E. 3. pars 2. d, 13. 29 E 3. d. 7. 32 E. 3. d. 14. 33 E. 3 d. 10. 34 E. 3. d. 35. & 49 E. 3. d. 4. to omit others: Which Parliaments it seems were held without any of the King's Council, or Justices summoned to them; or else the Clerks through negligence or slothfulness omitted the entries of their Writs or names in all these Rolls of Summons: Therefore they are no essential Members of the Parliaments or Great Councils of England, which may be held without them, being none of the 3. Estates.  
2ly, That there is no mention at all made of them in the usual ordinary writs to the Spiritual or Temporal Lords, Sheriffs, and Wardens of Cinque-ports; in these most material clauses, Parliamentum nostrum tenere, & Vo●iscum ac ●um Praelatis, Magnatibus & Proceribus dicti regni nostri Angliae Colloquium ha● bear volumus & tractatum: Or the personaliter inters●●is Nobiscum, ac cum dictis Praelatis, Magnatibus et Proceribus dicti Regni super dictis Negotiis tractaturi, vestrumque consilium impensuri, which have never this Clause, & cum ●aeteris de Consilio nostro, inserted into them: Therefore they are no essential constitutive Members of our Parliaments or Great Councils, but 
* Cooks 4 Ins●it. p. 4.  Assistants only to the King and Lords, as there is occasion.  
3ly, That those of the King's Council summoned to Parliaments and Great Councils by the precedent writs, were sometimes very many in number, sometimes very few, and always more or less, at the King's mere pleasure. In the first writ and list of summons extant, they were no less than 
* Sec ●▪ 341, 342.  40, in some others above 30, in most under 20, usually in later times but 10, 11, 12, 13, or 14, sometimes but 4, 5, 6, or 7; once or twice but one. Sometimes most of them were Deans, Archdeacon's, and other Clerks or Clergymen who had always▪ the Title MAGISTRO, prefixed to their names both in the writs and lists of their names; other times the major number were Justices, Laymen, and but two or three Clerks: In later times the Clergymen, were wholly omitted, or very rarely inserted, and that when they were Treasurers, or Temporal Officers to the King: An unanswerable apparent Argument and demonstraon, that they were no essential Members of our Parliaments or Great Councils, since the King might thus summon more or fewer of them, or which of them he thought fittest, and omit all or any, or as many of them as he would at his pleasure out of the summons.  
4ly. That in all lists of Summons of this kind, the King's Chief Justices, and other Justices of his Courts at Westm: and Chief Baron, were constantly summoned in more or less numbers, and the King's Sergeants very frequently: yea the writs of Summons entered in the Rolls, were, for the most part, issued to the King's Chief Justice; because there was most use of the Justices and learned Lawyer's advice and counsel in Parliaments in all matters of Law there debated, in●writs of Error there pending, in the penning of New, and altering, explaining, or repealing of former Statutes; in Pleas of the Crown, and other cases criminal or civil heard and determined in Parliaments, than there was of inferior Clergymen of the Council; the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors and Spiritual Lords there present as Members, being sufficiently able to advise the King and Temporal Lords in all Ecclesiastical matters there debated or treated of; especially when assisted with the Clerks of the Convocation usually summoned, without any Clergymen of the King's Council.  
5ly, That by the King and his Council, Us and Our Council, 
* See my Table to An Exact Abridgement, Title Councils and Counsellors.  Us and the rest of our Council, aliis ac caeteris de Consilio nostro, in the precedent and other writs in the Clause Rolls, the Rolls of Parliament, the afetrcited Statutes, and other Acts of Parliament; the King's Justices and others summoned to Parliaments and Great Councils as his Council, not as Spiritual or Temporal Lords; are properly meant and intended, not the Lords of the King's Privy or continual Council, nor yet the Lords in Parliament, or Parliament itself; the Parliament in the writs of Summons to the Bishops, in the Clause of Praemunientes Decanum, Capitulum, Archidiaconos, totumque Clerum vestrae Dioc: etc. and in the writs to the Sheriffs & Wardens of the Cinqueports, being usually styled, Commune Consilium Regni nostri, as the Clause, Ad consentiendum hiis quae tunc ihidem de Communi Consilio regni nostri contigerit ordinari: inserted into the last part of these Writs, informs us: And so is it styled in the writ prescribed by the Statute, De non ponendis in Assis●s, Anno 21 E. 1. & in other Writs grounded upon Acts of Parliament in the Register of Writs and Natura Brevium: Or the King's Common or General Council, as in the Stat: of Vouchers 18 E. 1. in the Statutes of Waste, & the Defension juris, An: 20 E: 1. and other printed Acts; and long before this, in Pat. 1 Joh: R●: m. 3 n. 3. Pat. 1 H: 3. m. 3. Pat. 3 H, 3. ps. 2. m. 6. and sundry other writs and Patents in his reign  
6ly, That although Sir 
a 4 Instit. p. 4.  Edward Cook and others make this the chief or sole distinguishing Cla●se, or proprium quarto modo, between the writs of Summons to the Lords and Members of the Lords House, and Assistants; that the one are always summoned, quoth in propria persona intersitis Nobiscum, ac cum dictis, or caeteris Praelatis, Magnatibus, et Proceribus dicti regni nostri, super dictis negotiis tractaturi, vestrumque consilium impensuri: The others only summoned; quod personaliter intersitis Nobiscnm, et cum caeteris de Consilio nostro, super dictis negotiis tractaturi, vestrumque consilium impensuri; Yet this is not a general truth: For 1. in sundry forecited writs to the King's Council, Justices, and Assistants; this clause, Et cum caeteris de Consilio nostro, etc. is totally omitted, though it be in most of them: and intersitis Nobiscum only, or, intersitis Nobiscum, et cum 
* See p: 357:  dictis Praelatis, Magnatibus, et Proceribus super dictis negotiis tractaturi vestrumque consilium impensuri; (without any & cum caeteris de Consilio nostro,) inserted in lieu thereof; yet with this distinction, (not formerly observed by any to my knowledge) that in the writs to the Spiritual and Temporal Lords, the words always run thus in the first Clause of the writs; Vobiscum, ac cum CAETERIS Praelatis, Magnatibus & Proceribus dicti Regni nostri, to a Spiritual Lord: and, Vobiscum, & cum Praelatis, ac CAETERIS Magnatibus et Proceribus, &c: to a Temporal Lord: and thus in the mandatory part; dictis die et l●co personaliter intersitis Nobiscum, ac cum CAETERIS Praelatis, Magnatibus & Proceribus, if to a Prelate: and if to a Temporal Lord, Nobiscum, ac cum Praelatis, et CAETERIS Magnatibus et Proceribus Praedictis super dictis negotiis tractaturi, etc. the word Caeteris is always omitted in the writs to the Justices, and other Assistants of the Council in both these clauses; because they are no Spiritual nor Temporal Lords of Parliament, nor summoned as such; and, cum Praelatis, Magnatibus & Proceribus, without caeteris, being only used in their writs; both where & cum caeteris de Consilio nostro is inserted into their writs after the word Proceribus, or elsewhere; and where it is totally omitted: So that the omission of the word caeteris in this place and manner in all writs to the Justices and other Assistants, and the inserting it as aforesaid, into the writs of the Spiritual and Temporal Lords, is the principal distinguishing word that puts a difference between them, not this Clause alone, Nobiscum, & cum aliis de Consilio nostro, twice inserted into the writs of Prorogation and Resummons both to the Temporal and Spiritual Lords, as well as to the Justices and Assistants, Claus: 33 E. 1. d. 9, 10. which I shall recite at large in its due Section.  
7ly, That in the writs of Summons to the King's Council, they are never licenced to appear by Proxies, or Attorneys, as the Spiritual and Temporal Lords sometimes are; but in proper person alone.  
8ly, That such of them who were Deans, Archdeacon's, or Clergymen have always the Title MAGITRO prefixed to their names both in the writs and lists of summons, by which they are distinguished from the Laymen mentioned in those writs and lists. And that one Bishop elect summoned amongst the Bishops to Parliament, was yet summoned as one of the King's Council by an other writ. What ever else is worthy Observation touching these writs, or lists of persons summoned, I have noted already in the precedent recitals of them.  
9ly, That though the King's Justices and others of his Council summoned to our Parliaments, were no real essential Members of them, but rather Assistants to the King and Lords, yet they had a very great hand, power, authority, not only in making Ordinances, Proclamations, desciding all weighty controversies, regulating most public abuses, and punishing all Exorbitant Offences out of Parliament in the Star-chamber and elsewhere, Coram Rege et CONSILIO SVO, as is evident by 19 E. 3.

1. By sundry Petitions upon several complaints and occasions presented and directed to the King and HIS COUNSEL, 
a See my Table to the Exact Abridgement of the Records of the Tower, Title Coun●ell.  OR SAGE, OR GOOD COUNSEL in sundry of our ancient Parliaments, entered in the Clause and Parliament rolls, more especially in Claus. Anno 1. E. 3. pars 1. & 2. Where multitudes of Petitions are thus directed; A nostre Signior. le Roy, et ASON COUNCIL, Au BON COUNCIEL nostre Signior le Roy, etc. Which Petitions were usually answered and determined, sometimes By the KING and His COUNSELL, jointly, other times by His COUNSEL alone; and sometimes by the King with the assent or advice of his COUNSEL, as these entries; Coram Rege & CONSILIO concessum est & emendatum: per agard de toute LE COUNSELL: soit le COUNCIEL certify; Coram CONSILIO NOSTRO in praesenti Parliament● venire faciatis scriptum praedictum; ad faciend. inde ulterius, quod per idem CONSILIUM NOSTRVM ibidem CONTIGERIT ORDINARI▪ Videtur CONSILIO: Il semble AV COUNCIEL que ce est bone affair▪ Veniat Inquisitio CORAM CONSILIO. Place at Dom. Regi & CONSILIO SVO ordinare: with the like, most frequently occurring in these Petitions, and the answers to the proceedings and resolutions upon them, abundantly evidence.  
2. By this subscription or addition to many Writs, Patents, Charters, in the Clause, Patent, Charter, and Parliament Rolls, per ipsum Regem & Consilium in Parliamento, being all made, issued, granted, approved, entered by Order of the King and those of His COUNCIL in Parliament.  
3. By the Placita coram ipso DOMINO REGE ET EJUS CONSILIO AD PARLIAMENTA SUA, &. AD PARLIAMENTUM SUUM, etc. recorded in the Parchment Book of Pleas in the Tower of London.. ● Wherein, the Proceedings, and the Judgements on them, were given sometimes by the Kings COUNSELL alone; sometimes by the King and his COUNSEL, and other times by the King, with the advice of the Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Barons, and others, or the rest of His COUNSEL; and sometimes Fines and Recognizances were acknowledged before the COUNSEL in Parliament. To instance in some particulars. In the Placita coram ipso Domino Rege et ejus Consilio, ad Parliamenta sua post festum Sancti Hillarii, et etiam post Pascha, Anno 18 E. 1. Willielmus de Wasthull quaeritur Domino Regi et ejus Consilio, per quandam petitionem, against a deceit and covin in levying a fine: johannes Comes de Dew venit coram Rege et ejus Consilio, ad Parliamentum suum post Pascha, etc. & petiit, etc. So Domino Regi et ejus Consilio Johannes Episcopus Wynton. alias coram Auditoribus quaerelarum monst●avit, etc. Petrus Maulore, venit coram Domino Rege et ejus Consilio, ad Parliamentum, etc. et petiir, etc. Dominum Regem et ejus Consilium certiorari faciant Querela Willielmi de Valentia Consilio Domini Regis in Anglia, dum Rex suit in Vasconia. Macolomus de Harlegh monstravit Consilio Regis per quandam petitionem, etc. So Placita Parliamenti apud Clipston & Asherugg, etc. Anno 18 E. 1. Margeria de Mose uxor Thomae de Weyland, & Ricardus filius ejusdem Thomae monstraverunt Domino Regi, et ejus Consilio, etc. coram ipso Domino Rege et ejus Consilio venerunt praedicti Cemites Gloucestr. & Hereford: Quod ipsi habeant corpora eorundem Comi●um coram ipso Domino Rege et Consilio suo, etc. ad faciendum et recifiendum id quod Dominus Rex de Consilio suo duxerit ordinandum. Prior de Goldelyne queritur Domino Regi et ejus Consilio, de hoc, etc. Memorandum quod Recordum, quod Episcopus Wynton et socii sui miserunt coram Consilio de magno placito Abbatis de Rupl. etc. Robertus Bardolph habet diem per adjornamentum in pleno consilio, etc. Maria quae fuij●uxor Willielmo de Brewosa petiit coram Domino Rege et ejus Consilio versus Willielmum, etc. medietatem manerii de Wykeham, etc. Placita coram Rege et Consilio suo ad Parliamentum suum post Pascha apud London. Anno 21 E. 1. Willielmus de Mere, etc. et Reginaldus do Legh coram ipso Domino Rege et ejus Consilio allocuti, ad rationem positi de hoc, etc. Stephanus Rabez Vicecomes Leicestr. & Warwic: coram ipso Domino Rege et ejus Consilio arrenatus, ad rationem positus de hoc, etc. Placita coram ipso Domino Rege et Consilio suo ad Parliamentum suum post festum Sancti Michaelis, Ann. 21 E. 1. Malcolinus de Harley Eschaetor Domini Regis citra Trentam monstravit Domino Regi et ejus Consilio, etc. et super hoc vocatis coram domino Rege et ejus Consilio: Decano de Wellen▪ etc. Placita coram ipso Domino Rege et ejus Consilia apud Cantuar. etc. Anno 21 E. 1. The Judgements and Orders upon such Petitions and complaints, were sometimes given by the Council alone. As in the case of Theobaldus de Verdun coram ipso Rege et ejus Consilio apud Bergaveny, de diversis Transgressionibus et inobedientiis factis Domino Regi, arenatus; and found guilty of them by Inquisition, returned and read C●ram ipso Domino Rege et ejus Consilio, in the Parliament of 20 E. 1. praedictus Theobaldus de Verdun per considerationem et judicium totius Consilii committebatur Goalae, et exhaeredatus fuit de tota libertate sua Regali, quam habuit in terris suis de Ewyas Lacie, pro so et hoeredibus suis imperpetuum; But mostly by the King & Council: Witness these Clauses in Plac. Parl. Anno 18 E. 1. Loquela inter Johannem de Sancto Johanne, & Willielmum de Valentia ponitur in respectum usque in Octabis Sancti Johannis Baptistae, eo quod per Consilium Domini Regis et justiciarios suos judicium certum in loquela illa nondum est provisum, etc. Postea ad diem illum Dominus Rex et ejus Consilium in praesentia praedict●rum partium habito consilio de procedendo ad judicium, etc. The Summons to Theobald de Verdun; ad faciendum et recipiendum qu●d Dominus Rex de Consilio ordinaret; And the acquittal of the Servants of The●bald de Lacie, upon the returns of the Inquisitions against them, lecta et audita coram dom. Rege et ejus Consilio. In the Plea between the King and the Bishop of Winchest. de Custod: Hospitii S. Juliani Southampton, upon full hearing and examining of the cause, Uidetur Domino Kegi et ejus Consilio, quod justiciarii secundum quod in recordo suo praedicto continetur, debito modo & secunduin consuetudinem Regni ad captionem praedictae Inquisitionis processerunt, etc. In the case of the Earl of Ewe in Normandy petitioning for the restitution of the Castles of Hastings and Tikehall belonging to his Grandmother Alicia, whose heir he was, and by her delivered into the Custody and protection of King Henry the III. Et quia Domino Regi et ejus Consilio manifestè constat, quod praedicto Comi●i alias responsum fuit ad consimilem Petitionem, etc. Nec videtur Domino Regi aut ejus Consilio, quod ratione aliquarum literarum praedictarum praedicto Comiti aliud responsum dare debeat, etc. In the Parliament of ●0 E. 1. The case of the Prior of Gisburn, Coram Rege et ejus Consilio apud Norham. Anno 19 E. 1. where per ipsum Regem & CONSILIUM suum ordinatum et concordatum est, that a Recognisance of 600 marks acknowledged in Chancery by the Prior should be canceled. In the case of the differences between the Citizens of London and Merchants of Gascoigne, both cited Coram ipso Domino Rege & CONSILIO SVO. Anno 20 E. 1. Vt auditis coram ipso Domino Rege et CONSILIO SUO allegationibus et disputationibus, rationibusque quibuscunque per praedictas partes porrectis, fieret in hac parte quod Dominus Rex de Consilio decreverit, etc. et contentio praedicta finem debitum per ipsum Dominum Regem et CONSILIUM SUUM sortietur; who then made an Order and peace between them, and likewise in the Parl. of 21 E. 1. In the case between john Gifford, and Robert Tybetot touching the Commot of Hysk ynny, the King at Berwick Anno 21 E. 1. Cartam praedictam coram se & CONSILIO suo legi fecit, et ad ambiguitatem quorundam verborum in praedicta Garta contentorum de caetero auferendam, eadem verba declaravit in hun● modum. etc. An. 21 E. 1. The Bishop of Durham (having his liberties unjustly seized by the award of the Justices in Eyr,) Supplicavit ipsi Domino Regi et CONSILIO SUO instanter, quod praedicta processus et Recordum coram eis recitarentur et examinarentur, et errores in eisdem contenti pro se & Ecclesia sua Dunolm. prout justum fuerit, & secundum legem et consuetudinem Regni emendarentur. Which being accordingly done, and the cause fully heard and debated before them; consideratum est per ipsum Regem & Consilium, quod judicium praedictum revocetur, & adnulletur, et quod omnes libertates praedicti Episcopi, Ecclestae suae & hominum suorum, quae per considerationem Justiciariorum ●tinerantium, in manum Domini Regis captae fuerunt, eidem Episcopo, Eccles●ae & hominibus suis plenary & integre restituentur.  
I shall instance only in three more memorable cases at large.  
The 1. is in the Placita coram ipso Rege & Consilio suo, ad Parliamentum suum post Pascha apud London. in Manerio Archiepiscopi Eborum; Anno regni Regis Edwardi 1. 21. De Petentibus arreragiis de tempore Iudae●rum. Quia plures Capitales Domini, de quibus Iudaei ante Exilium suum de Regno isto tenementa sua tenuerunt, diversa arreragia petunt, de servitiis ●orundem tenementorum ●ibi detentis, tempore quo tenementa illa in manu Domini Regis, ut Eschaeta sua per Exilium eorundem judeorum devenerunt, & similiter à tempore postquam tenementa illa per concessionem & donationem suam, in manus nunc tenentium devenerunt, quod per eosdem tenentes aut eorum haeredes, aut assignatos plenarie satisfiat, capitalibus Dominis de quibus tenementa illa tenentur, de omnibus serviciis & consuetudinibus eisdem Dominis capitalibus feodi debitis & consuetis, & quae servicia judaei ante Exilium suum; dum tamen sibi facere consueverunt & debuerunt, & secundum quod iidem Domini capitales legitime verificare poterunt, servicia illa & consuetudines sibi deberi, & quoth judaei dum tenementa illa tenuerunt pro tenementis illis sibi ●acere consueverunt, cum singulis Cartis Domini Regis de talibus tenementis cuicunque concessis semper contineatur, quod servicia debita & consueta inde faciant capitalibus Dominis feodi illius. Et de toto illo tempore quo tenementa illa in se●ina Domini Regis remanserunt postquam per Exilium ●orundem judeorum ●eisita fuerint usque diem quo eadem tenementa per concessionem ipsius Domini Regis in seisinam aliorum devenerunt respond●atur, satisfiat Capitalibus Dominis ac Scaccarium per ipsum Dominum Regem, singulis pro sua portione, et secundum quod verificare poterunt prout superius dicitur; cum quilibet de suo tempore tantummodo teneatur respondere, et de isto tempore quo Rex tenebitur respondere satisfaciant ipsi modo tenentes Capitalibus Dominus, et ipsis allocetur in pacatione sua facienda, aut redditu suo, vel secundum quod The saurarius et Barones de Scaccario, melius viderint expedire. De tempore autem judeorum quo ipsi tenementa illa tenuerunt, non videtur Domino Regi, aut ejus consilio, quod alicui petenti debet responderi, cum iidem Capitales Domini semper suerant et esse debuerant sufficientes et potentes ad servitia et consuetudines sibi debita petenda, et pro eisdem distringenda si quid aretro fuit, vel cum ipsi judei fortè satisfecerunt de hoc quod modo petitur, et inde habeant acquietancias. Et si quid a retro fuerit hoc fuit per negligentiam et stultitiam eorundem Dominorum Capitalium, quorum negligentia merito ●ibi ip●is imputanda, et cum dicitur, Vigilantibus et non dormientibus jura subveniunt.  

* 21 E. 1. ro●. 4. 22 E. 1. rot. 5. Cooks 2 Instit p. 508. The 2d. Part of my Demurrer, p. 123.  The second is the case of the Prior of Bridlington, before the King and his Council the same Parliament. Prior de Bridelington allocutus coram ipso Domino Rege et consilio suo de hoc, quod cum quidam Bonamy nuper judeus Eborum: mutuasset eidem Priori Trescenta Lìbras Sterlingorum, solvendas eidem judeo ad Gulas Augusti, Anno regni Regis nunc vicessimo, Et idem Iudeus ante terminum praedictum; Per commune Exilium judeorum de regno isto exularet, per quod praedictum debitum simul cum omnibus aliis bonis quae fuerant ejusdem judei in Anglia, et quae in regno remanserunt post eorum Exilium, in quorumcunque manus fuerunt ipsius Domini Regis Catalla fuerunt, et ipsi Domino Regi reddi debuissent; Praedictus Prior debitum praedictum quod fuit etc. esse catal. Dom. Regis, ad terminum statutum ipso Domino Regi non solvit, nec ipsum Dominum Regem aut suos inde premunit; Immo totaliter concelavit, detinuit▪ & adhuc detinet, in lesionem fidei sui qua Domino Regi tenetur, & ad grave dampnum ipsius Domini Regis, etc. Et Prior bene cognoscit, quod Praedecessor suus immediatus pecuniam praedictam de praedicto judeo mutuavit termino praedicto solvendam, & quod ipse ratione mutui illius, adhuc ad solutionem pecuniae illius tenetur. Set dicit; quod johannes Archiepiscopus Eborum qui nuncest, in tertia septimana Quadragesima proximò praeterito ad domum suam de Bridelington, prout ad officium suum pertinet, visitavit, & inter caetera in visitatione sua ibidem inventa, quaesivit de debitis domus in quibus idem Prior, & quibus, & pro quo tenebatur? ita quod tunc invenit, quod domus praedicta praedicto judeo indebitabatur in pecunia praedicta; et statim in Capitulo ipso Priori injunxit, quod pecuniam illam solveret ejusdem valecto tunc ibidem praesenti ad festum Nativitatis Sanctae Mariae proximum, quem valectum idem Archiepiscopus dicebat esse Attornatum praedicti judaei. Et ipse Prior prout ratione obedientiae suae tenetur; praecepto praefati Archiepiscopi obedivit, & eandem pecuniam tunc solvere promisit. Et quia idem Prior cognoscit, quod praedicta pecunia praedicto judeo debebatur, nec ei solvebatur. ante exilium judeorum, & quicquid remansit de eorum debitis & catallis in Regno post eorum exilium, Domini Regis fuit. Consideratum est, quod Dominus Rex recuperet praedictam pecuniam, ut Catalla sua versus praedictum Priorem. Et dictum est praedicto Priori, quod non exeat è villa, priusquam Domino Regi, de praedicta pecunia satisfecerit. Et quia praedictus Archiepiscopus praedicto Priori injunxit; quod catalla Domini Regis praedicto vallecto solveret, ad dampnum Domini Regis, & similiter quia Dominus Rex intellexit, quod Archiepiscopus praedictus quoddam scriptum obligatorium, per quod praefatus Prior praedicto Iudaeo tenebatur in debito praedicto, contra fidem Domino Regi debitam, & Sacramentum fidelitatis suae à praedicto Iud●o emit aut perquisivit, ad elongandum Dominum Regem de Catallis suis praedictis, & ibi appropriando malitiosè: Praeceptum est Vicecomiti Eborum, quod venire faciat praedictum Archiepiscopum coram Domino Rege, à die Sancti Michaelis, in Quindecim dies, ubicunque, etc. ad respondendum Domino Regi de receptione praedicta. Et similiter quod praedictum scriptum, ut dicitur, remanet in custodia Abbatis Sanctae Mariae Eborum● aut Prioris Sancti Andre● Eborum, ideo praeceptum est Vicecomiti praedicto, quod venire faciat eosdem Abbatem & Priorem, ad terminum praedictum, ad respondendum de eodem scripto.  
Hereupon the Sheriff summoned the Archbishop; Ad respondendum Domino Regi de hoc, quod nunc Prior de Bridelington et ejusdem loci conventus per scriptum suum obligatorium tenebatur cuidam Bonamy quondam judeo Eborum, in Trescentis libris sterlingorum certis terminis solvendorum: et idem judeus Per Commune Exilium judeorum de Regno isto, ante solutionem praedictae pecuniae sibi factam Exuleret; praedictus Archiepiscopus de Curia Romana rediens apud Paris cum praedicto Iudaeo conventionem & mercatum faciens, praedictum debitum, quod fuit & est Catalla Domini Regis ab eo emit, & post in visitatione sua ad Prioratum praedictum facta, eidem Priori et Conventui per obedient●am injungit, quod pecuniam praedictam cuidam Valecto ipsius Archiepiscopi, aut nuncio praefati judaei, certo termino solverent; contra fidelitatem in qua Domino Regi tenentur, & in alienationem pecuniae Domini Regis▪ ad dampnum Domini Regis mille librarum etc. Et praedictus Archiepiscopus modo venit, & super hoc facto praedicto CORAM DOMINO REGE ET CONSILIO SUO arenatus, express dicit; Quod nunquam cum praedicto Iudaeo aliquam conventionem fecit, seu mercatum de pecunia praedidicta sibi adquirenda; set revera dicit, quod in visitatione sua ad domum praedictam invenit, et per Prio●em et Conventum ejusdem domus sibi ostensus fuit, quod domus illa indebitabatur praedicto judeo de prae●icta pecunia. Et idem ad salvationem animarum sua●um prout tenebatur, eidem Priori et Conventui dixit, quod pecuniam illam salva conscientia retinere non possent, et quod sic facerent quod animas suas salvarent: set quod nunquam eis injunxit, quod pecuniam illam sibi aut al●i nomine praedicti judei solverent, paratus est se acquietare, si placuerit DOMINO REGIET EJUS CONSILIO. Et Dominus Rex super hoc, de gratia sua speciali, et ad instantium MAGNATUM DE CONSILIO SUO, licet per patriam de jure inquirere posset veritatem praemissorum, concessit praedicto Archiepiscopo, quod in fide in qua ei tenetur, veritatem praemissorum fatetur et cognosca●. Et idem Archiepiscopus in fide, etc. fatetur et dicit, quod in veniendo de Curia Romana apud Paris: bene audivit & intellexit per praedictum judeum quod praedicta pecunia ei debebatur, et quod idem Iudeus eum rogavit, ut ei pro Deo esset in auxilium ad praedictam pecuniam suam ●ecuperandam. Et postea, ut praedictum est, in visitatione sua ad domum praedictam hoc idem invenit per confessionem praedictorum Prioris et Conventus; et eis dixit, quod ●ic facerent, quod animas suas salvarent. Et quia idem Archiepiscopus bene cognoscit, quod POST EXILIUM DICTI JUDAE●, & ALIORUM JUDAEORUM DE REGNO ISTO, à praedicto judeo intellexit, quod pecunia praedicta ●ibi in regno isto debebatur, et POST EORUM EXILIUM, omnia quae sua fuerunt, et in regno isto remanserunt, tam debita quam alia bona quaecunque ipsi Domino Regi remanserunt, et Catalla sua fuerunt, et super hoc incontinenti POST EORUM EXILIUM solempnis Proclamatio siebat per totum regnum, et quod omnes qui debita aliqua alicui judeo debebant, aut de eorum debi●is 'tis, bonis & catallis aliquid sciebant Domino Regi, aut alicui de Consilio suo scire facerent, de qua quidem Proclamatione nullus dedicere potest, quin scivit, a●● scivisse debuit. Et idem Archiepiscopus de debito praedicto scivit, prout fatetur, tam per judeum, quam per Priorem & Conventum, nec de hoc Domino Regi, aut alievi de suìs constare fecit; Immo debitum illud concelando, et à Domino Rege alienando contra fidem qua Regi tene●ur, injunxit praefato Priori et Conventui, quod animas suus-salvarent, quod tantum valuit, quantum si dixisset; quod judeo satisfacerent, concordatum est, quod praedictus Archiepiscopus remaneat in misericordia Domini Regis, pro concelamento & transgressione praedicto, etc. et idem Dominus Rex sibi ipsi reservat Tax ationem illius misericordiae. From these 2. Records I shall observe, That the General Banishment of the jews out of England, and the escheat and forfeiture of their Lands, Goods, and Debts to the King, by this their general exile, is no less than 10. several times precisely mentioned in these 2 Records, and the very groundwork of them; besides some hundreds of other Records and Authors cited by me in the 1. and 2. Part of my Demurrer to the jews long discontinued Remitter into England: And therefore I must admire 
* 2. Institutes p. 106. 707. 568.  Sir Edward Cooks peremptory denial of it in print, in his Commentary on the Statute de judaismo, in the very date whereof he is mistaken, as well as in most of his Comments thereupon, as I have largely proved in my Demurrer. 2. That it is a breach of the Oath of Fealty and Allegiance in any Subject, and an offence for which he is punishable, to conceal from, or defraud the King of any of his just debts and rights, especially when engaged by Proclamation to discover them. 3ly. That the King and his Counsel gave judgement in these causes; and that in the later of them the King reserves the taxing of the Amerciament of the Archbishop for an offence against him, wholly to himself.  
The 3. case is that of john Sa●veyn, his wife and her sister, in the Placita coram ipso Domino Rege apud Westmonasterium in Parliamento suo in Octabis Nativitatis beatae Mariae, Anno regni Regis Edwardi filii Regis Henrici 33. which is very memorable, and thus recorded.  
johannes Salveyn, Margareta uxor ejus, Isabello soro● ejusdem Margaretae, filiae & haeredes Roberti de Ros de Werk, per Petitionem suam in forma sequenti ostendunt Domino Regi, et petunt, quod cum Dominus Rex de gratia sua speciali concessit et ordinavit, Quod omnes gentes de regno Seotiae, cujuscunque fuerint, et quae ad pacem suam venerint, exceptis aliquibus personis in eadem 
a See this Ordinance enrolled at large, Claus. Ann. 33 E. 1. m. 13. dorso in Cedula, and remembered by Mat. Westm. pars 2. p. 451, 452.  Ordinatione nominatis, admittantur secundum conditiones subsequentes; videlicet, quod salva sit eis vita et membra, et quod quieti sint de imprisonamento, et quod non exhaeredantur. Ita quod de eorum exemptione et emendis de Transgressionibus, qnas ipsi Domino Regi solummodo fecerint, et de estabilamento terrae Scotiae staret ordinationi suae, sicut plenius continetur in Ordinatione supradicta. Et in● super Dominus Rex concessit omnibus qui secuti fuerint seisinam de terris quas ipsi et eorum Antecessores tenuerunt in principio Guerrae In quorum manus terr●● illae devenissent; quod ipsi johannes, Margareta, & Isabel, uti possent et gaudere concessione et Ordinatione praedictis, quoad terras quae dictus Robertus tenuit in Anglia & Scotia in principio guerrae. Ita quod non sin● exhaeredati. Et Willielmus de Ros de Hamlake, qui tenet praedictum Manerium de Werk, ex dono et concessione Domini Regis, per praemunitionem sibi factam venit●, et tam pro seipso tanquam tenenti dictum Manerium, quam pro Domino Rege quo ad alias terras et tenementa quae fuerunt dicti Roberti, tam in regno Angliae quam in terra Sco●iae, dicit; Quod praedicti petentes nichil in eisdem per medium praedicti Roberti clamare possunt ut ipsius haeredes, nec ad illa petenda, seu aliquam partem earundem audiri debent, prout petunt. Dicit enim, quod ipsi petunt tenementa praedicta ut haeredes praedicti Roberti, et virtute c●jusd ●m Ordination●s, quam Dom●nus Rex nuper fecitet concessit illis hominibus de terra Scotiae, qui in ultima guerra in eadem terra ad pacem suam venerunt et admissi suerunt; et per illa ver●a videlizet, [quod non ●x●aeredentur,] Et etiam petunt, quod ipsi uti possunt, et gaudere concessione et Ordinatione praedictis quo ad terras quas dictus Robertus tenuit in Anglia & in Scotia in principio guerrae, Ita quod non sint exhaeredati, prout in sua petitione continetur, quod nullo modo admitti debent. Quia dicit, quod praedictus Robertus diù ante principium istius gueriae, ad quod tempus Ordinationi praedicta reddito terrarum et concessio se extendunt, Inimicus Domini Regis devenit mani●estus, parti Scotorum Contra Homagium et Filelitatem suam felonice et traditiose adh●rendo, et sic omnes terras et tenementa sua ubicunque infra Dominium et potestatem Domini Regis existentia, simul cum aliis bonis suis quibuscunque totaliter forisfecit; nec unquam postea in vita sua ad pacem Domini Regis rediit, set in inimicitia sua ut Felo et Traditor obiit. Occasione cujus Inimicitiae sic commissae Dominus Rex terras illas et tenementa statim in manum suam seisivit; et postea ipsum Manerium de Werk ipsi Willielmo dedit. Et hoc paratus est verisicare, tam p●o Domino Rege quam pro seipso, si petentes praedicti in petitione sua praedicta audiri debent, etc. Et quia habito super praemissis diligenti tractatu per ipsum Dominum Regem et totum Consil●um, expressè recordatum est, quod dictus Robertus de Ros, per multa tempora ante principium istius ultimae guerrae contra Homagium, Fidelitatem et Ligeantiam suam, de ipso Domino Rege traditiosè et felonicè se elongavit, et Inimicus ipsius Domini Regis manifestè devenit parti Scotorum adhaerendo tunc Inimicorum et Rebellionum Domini Regis existentium, nec unquam postea in vita sua ad pacem Domini Regis rediit, set inimicus ●●●s obiit, visisque articulis et conditionibus contentis in Ordinatione per ipsum Dominum Regem facta in ea●dem ultima guerra hominibus de terra Scotia, et concessione de redditione terrarum svarum eisdem facienda, quam de aliis in eadem Ordinatione contentis, et virtute cujus Ordinationis petentes praedicti modo tenementa praedicta petunt: Uidetur Domino Regi et Consilio suo, quod petentes praedicti ratione illius Ordinationis seu redditionis in Petitione sua praedicta audiri non debent. Propter quod Concordatum est et consideratum per ipsum Dominum Regem et Consilium suum, quod praedictus Willielmus eat inde sine die, etc. Et quod praedicti petentes nichil capiant per Petitionem suam praedictam, etc. After which, upon the suit of the Petitioners to King Edward the 2. in the 4. year of his reign, being in Scotland, there issued two several writs to Gilbert de Roubyry, to search the

b Placita in Parl. Anno 33 E. 1. ro●. 17. 2●.  Nicholas de Segraves case, in Cooks 3 Instit. p. 7, 8. and My Plea for the Lords, p. 361. with others there cited: I shall here for brevity recite only two Memorable ones.  
The 1. in the Placita in Parliamento apud London in crastino Epiphaniae, Anno regni Edwardi 1. vicesimo, the long, great and famous case between Humphrey de Bohun Earl of Hereford and Essex, and Gilbert de Clare Earl of Gloucester and Hertford, who invaded one another's lands by force and arms in a warlike manner, and committed many rapines, burnings, murders and enormities against the King's peace and prohibition: after many Inquisisitions and debates touching this business before Justices assigned, and afterwards before the King's Council, and then before the King and his Council, by these passages often mentioned in the record; Concordat●m est per DOMINUM REGEM & CONSILIUM, Decretum est PER CONSILIUM, Videtur CONSILIO DOMINI REGIS, per dictum DOMINUM REGEM & CONSILIUM, etc. evident●r compertum est (twice repeated) Quod corpora eorum habeat coram. DOMINO REGE & EJUS CONSILIO, ad voluntatem ipsius Domini Regis audiendam et faciendam, et recipiendum id quod DOMINUS REX DE CONSILIO SUO DUXERIT ORDINANDUM) fully evidence. At last both the Earls. Voluntati Domini Regis se omnino submiserunt, ut de eorumque libertatibus faciat quod sibi placuerit. Whereupon Dominus Rex super hoc non voluntariè tantumniodo, imo pro●t de jure et secundum legem et consuetudinem regni fuerit faciendum, et etiam per Consilium Archiepiscoporum, Cpiscoporun●; Comitum et Baronum caeterorumque De Consilio suo existentium facere volens in praemissis, et ut voluntas sua justa sit et rationabilis pro●t decet, eorumque Assensum in praemissis petiit et Consilium. Propter quod habito tractatu ●oram ipso Domino Rege et Consilio suo super praedictis, tam ipso Domino Regi, quam caeteris Praelatis et Magnatibus et singulis de Consilio suo vide●ur, quoad Comitem Gloucestriae, quod libertas sua praedicti, etc. pro se et haeredibus suis forisfacta est ratione delicti praedicti, etc. Dictum est eidem Comiti Gloucestriae per considerationem et judicium Archiepiscoru●●, Episcoporum, Comitum, Baronum, et totius consilit Domini Regis, quod libertas sua praedicta, etc. totumque regale in eisdem terris remaneânt Domino Regi et haeredibus suis ut forisfacta tota vita ipsius Comitis Gloucestriae, et idem Comes retor●etur prisonae, et inde redimetur ad voluntatem domini Regis▪ et etiam quod praedictus Comes Hereford recuperet versus eum Centum libras pro dampnis praedictis. Et similiter quoad praedictum Comitem Hereford, ●o quod videtur Domino Regi, et ejus Consilio habito super hoc tracta●● diligenti, quod libertas sua in terris suis de Brekenno●, etc. ratione delicti praedicti forisfacta esset. Dictum est eidem Comiti Hereford, per considerationem et judicium Archiepiscoporum, Episcoporum, Comitum et Baronum, et totius Consilii Domini Regis, quo libertas sua praedicta remaneat Domino Regi et haeredibus suis forisfacta de ipso Comite Hereford et haeredibus suis imperpetuum, et corpus suum prisonae retornetur et inde redimetur ad voluntatem Domini Regis; Et quia videtur Domino Regi et ejus Consilio, quod transgressio de qua idem Comes Hereford convictus est, non est ita carcans, nec tantam poenam requirit quantum et facta transgressio praedicta de qua praedictus Comes Gloucestriae convincitur: and because he had espoused the Queen's kinswoman; therefore the forfeiture was mitigated, and ordered to continue to the King and his heirs during the Earls life only: After these Earls had continued in prison for some time; the Earl of Gloucester, finem fecit Domino Regi pro Decem Mille Marc. pro Transgre s●ione praedicta, and put in 5 Noble men for his pledge●; And the Earl of Hereford likewise, finem fecit Domino Regi pro T●ansgressione praedicta, pro Mille Marcis, et re●ipitur per plegios, who are named in the Record: After which Io●● de Crepinghes, and others of the Earls Assistants in these riotous Misdemeanours, ad instantiam Praelatorum, Comitum & Baronum, et aliorum de Consilio sus, who moved the King to show mercy to them▪ were put to several fines.  
The 2. is in the Placita co●am●ipso Rege & Consilio suo ad Parliamentum suum, post Pascha apud London, Anno 21 E. 1. the Archbishop of York's case. Johannes Archiepiscopus Eborum attachi●tus fuit ad respondendum Damino Regi de pla●i●o quare cum placita de Imprisonamento et aliis Transgressionibus in regno Regi● contra pacem Regis factis ad Regem & coronam et dignitatem suam specialiter pertineant. Idem Archiepiscopus per Johannem Priorem de Bolton in Cravene Commissarium suum in venerabilem Patrem Antonium Episcopum Dunolm: dum nuper in partibus Borialibns in obsequio Regis juxta la●us suum per praeceptum ipsius Regis sub protectione extitit, pro eo quod Ballivi esusdem Episcopi Willielmum de Wrleton 〈◊〉 Johannem Roman apud D●nolm. inventos ceporunt et imprisonaver●nt, Excommunicationis sententi●m in Regis contemptum et Coronae & dignitatis suae laesionem, & contra reverentiam Regis in hac parte debitam, in dispectum ipsius Regis viginti Mille librarum, fecit fulminari, et illam Excommunicationem demandari. Propter quod idem Rex ta●um contemptum & tantum irreverenti 〈◊〉 sibi illatam●ransire impunitam sustinere non valens, maxim cum tam ipse Rex quam praellictus Episcopus quanium in ipso suit, praefato Willielmo & Johanni de imprisonamento praedicto celeris justitiae complementum juxta regni consue●udinem semper fuerunt parati exhibere, etc. After the Archbishop's Plea thereto, and a long debate of the business in Parliament; Videtur Domino Regi in pleno Parliamento praedicto, Comitibus, Baronibus, justiciariis, & similiter toti Consilio ipsius Domini Regis, quod praedictus Archiepiscopus quantum in ipso fuit niteba●ur occupare & usurpare super Coronam Regiam et Dignitatem, in casu●isto deliberationes imprisonatorum, contra legem et consuetudinem regni, et Contra ●●dem in qua idem Archiepiscopus Domino Regiet Coronae suae astringitur, ad exhaeredationem Do●●ni Regis et haeredum suorum manifestam. Propter quod per Comites, Barones et justiciarios, et dinnes alios de Constlio ipsius Domini Regis concordatum est, quod praedictus Archiepiscopus committatur prisonae, pro offensa & transgressione praedictis. Et super hoc ante judicium pronunnciatum licet unanimiter de consilio praedictorum Magnatum et aliorum concordatum fuisset tenendum in hoc casu, et similiter in casibus consimilibus imperpetuum, praedictus Archiepiscopus Maguates et alios de Consilio ipstus Domini Regis rogavit, quod pro eo Dominum Regem requirerent, ut Ante Pronuntiationem Judicit ipsum ad gratiam suam admitteret. Et Dominus Rex ad instantiam eorundem Magnatum, de gratia sua speciali hoc idem ipso Archiepiscopo concessit. Et idem Archiepiscopus humiliter supplicavit, quod possit de omnibus praemissis alto & basso Voluntati Domini Regis se submittere. Which the King assenting to at the Lords request, Dictum est eidem Archiepiscopo sub gravi forisfactura, quod non recedat à Parliamento isto ●onec super praemissis Domini Regis audivit voluntatem. Postea venit praedictus Archiepiscopus, et fecit finem Domino Regi pro Transgressione praedicta, pro quatuor millibus marcarum, per scriptum suum obligatorium: 5 others being bound with him for due payment thereof to the King.  
It is observable, that in all these Pleas, Proceedings & Judgements, there is no mention at all of the Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, or Commons in Parliament, (no shar●rs in them) but only of the King, Archbishops, Bishops, Earls, Barons, Justices, and King's Counsel.  
4ly. The power of the King's Counsel and Judges in Parliament, is evident by sundry Prefaces to, and passages in our printed Acts of Parliament: as namely by the preface of the printed Statute of Bigamy, 4. Octo●. An. 4. Ed. 1. In the presence of certain Reverend Fathers, Bishops of England, and OTHERS OF THE KING'S COUNSELL, the Constitutions underwritten were recited, after heard, and published before the King and HIS COUNSELL: forasmuch as ALL THE KING'S COUNSELL, AS WELL JUSTICES AS OTHERS DID AGREE that they should be put in writing for a perpetual memory, and that they should be steadfastly observed.

It was moved in Parliament in the presence of the Prelates, Barons, Nobles, and Great men of the Realm, and others there present; Whether the Order of the Templars being dissolved, the King and other Lords of the fees might retain them by the Law of the Realm, and with safe conscience? Whereupon the Greater part of the King's Counsel, as well the justices as other Lay-people being assembled together, the said justices affirmed precisely; That our Lord the King, and other Lords of the fees aforesaid, might well and lawfully by the laws of the Realm retain the foresaid Lands as their Escheats, in regard of the ceasing and dissolution of the Order aforesaid. But upon other grounds of Conscience, they settled them on the Hospital of S. john's of jerusalem by this Statute. 1. E. 3. c. 3.

* See Claus. 38 11. 3. dors. 13.  37 H. 3. dors. 7. Rex Ricardo Comiti Cornubiae, salutem: Alias allocuti sumus Episcopum Sarum, quod intenderet Consilio nostro, & praebuit se difficilem, propter quod ad praesens nolumus habere alios Consi●●arios quam ordinavimus, sicut scitis; sed cum aliqua difficultas emerserit super judicium reddendum, vel aliis communibus negotiis ta●● gentibus legem terrae, bene placet Nobis quod ad hoc intendat cum à Vobis interpellatus: & ad ipsum vocandum cum hujusmodi necessitas evenerit, plenam Vobis concedimus potestatem. Teste Rege apud Portsmouth 7 die Augusti.  
By this record it is evident, That the King's Council in those days usually gave judgement in cases of difficulty, and other common cases concerning the Law of the realm, calling those who were learned in the Laws for Assistants therein. Of which amongst many others we have a memorable precedent in the Pleas of Mich. 53 & 54 H. 3. rot: 37. in the case of Assize of Mortdauncester brought by Alexander King of Scots against john de Burgo, for the Manor of Westlye with its appurtenances before G. de Preston, and other Justices in Eyre, who determining nothing therein; thereupon King Hen: writ to the Justices to proceed to a speedy determination, or else to adjourn it coram Nobis et Consilio nostro in Quindena Michaelis; which they did. When the King of Scots appearing by his Attorney, and john de Burgo in person before S. de Litlebyr & Sociis suis justiciariis de Banco, Rich: de Middleton then the King's Chancellor, Thomas Basset, Robert Augulon, and Mr. Richard Stane●, they resolved, that the writ of Mortdancester would not lie in that case, claiming both as heirs to one Ancestor; but because the King of Scots title to it was as heir to Margaret wife of Hubert de Burgo, they said to john de Burgo, that he should show cause, Quare praedictus Rex Scotiae praedictum Manerium habere non debeat: And so much touching the Counsils power and jurisdiction in former times. Whose excessive power in later ages encroaching upon the Ordinary Courts of Justice, Freeholds, Liberties, Properties of the Subjects to their great oppression and vexation: thereupon in the late Parliament of 16 Caroli, Cap. 10. there was an excellent Act made, For Regulating the Privy Council, and for taking away the Court commonly called the Starr-chamber, fit to be put in vigorous execution against the transcendent infringers of it. By all which it appears, that the King's justices, and Council in Parliaments (as well as out of them) had formerly a principal hand in making Laws, Ordinances; and resolving points, questions of Law, and other matters of moment.  
I shall close up my Observations on this Section with these 4. memorable Records, relating to the King's Counsel, and the Nobles, in Scotland and Ireland, as distinct from his Counsel and Parliamentary Assemblies in England.

Quia ratio Vinculi & foederis inter nos contracti requirit, quod Vobis & fidelibus Vestris ardua & urgentia negotia Statum nostrum & terrae nostrae tangentia communicemus, & Vos Nobis vice versa; Serenitatem vestram ex toto corde requirimus, quatinus in Quindena Purificationis beatae Mariae prox. futur. apud Castrum puellarum de Edinburgh personaliter interesse velitis; convocantes & inducentes Praelatos & Magnates Regni Vestri, ut ad dictos diem & locum representent se coram Vobis modis omnibus. Nullo enim modo expediret honori & proficuo nostro & vestro, quin modo praedicto ad praedictos diem & locum compareatis; audituri per nuncios nostros qui de Vasconia Vobis ibidem occurrent, praedicta negotia arduissima & urgentissima, in quibus necesse est, quod vos & fideles vestri consilium vestrum pariter & auxilium apponatis. T. ut supra, per Reginam & Comitem.  
It is observable, that the King by this Writ doth not summon the King of Scots and his Nobles to his Parliament, or Counsel of England, as members thereof, to advise and assist him in this necessity, notwithstanding the strict alliance and league between them, but to assemble together at Edinburgh in their own country, by themselves alone, as the Officers and Nobles of Ireland were then also required to meet in Ireland by themselves, by this ensuing Writ of the same date with the former.  

Claus. 3● H. 3. dors. 13.  Rex Mauricio filio Giraldi salutem. Quia Rex Castell cum multitudine Exercitus Christianorum & Saracenorum terram nostram Vasconiae in Quindena Pasche prox. futur. ingressurus est hostiliter, non solum ad eandem terram destruendam & occupandam, set & ad terras nostras Angliae & Hiberniae, per introitum dictae terrae, si eam optineret, quod absit, invadendas aspirat, & Nos in propria persona nostra cum eodem Rege bellum campestre aggredi proposuimus; de universa fidelitate vestra, quam in agendis nostris fructuosam semper invenimus, plenam gerentes fiduciam, vos requirimus, & in fide qua Nobis tenemini affectuosè rogamus, quatinus sic●t Nos & honorem nostrum & indempnitatem corporis nostri diligitis, in hac necessitate nostra non parcentes personae aut rebus vestris, nulla ratione seu occasione differatis quin poteritis vos praeparare ad veniendum ad nos in Vasconiam, omnes amicos vestros ad hoc idem inducentes. Ita quod sitis apud Waterford in Octabis Pasche prox. futur. cum equis & armis & bona gente, prompti & parati statim naves ascendere ad transfretandum ad Nos in terram praedictam. Scitote indubitanter qui Nobis in hac parte subvenerint, eorum amici erimus & benevoli imperpetuum; & qui Nos in hac urgenti & inexuperabi●i necessi●ate relinquerint, de eyes alias minus confidere poterimus, & eye minus grati erimus. Nunquam etiam futuris temporibus tanta Nobis imminebit necessitas consilii & auxilii sicut in presenti negotio. Et ad regerendum vobis plenius pericula nostrorum Inimicorum, johannem filium Galfridi, Justiciarium nostrum Hiberniae, ad partes illas (misimus) cui apud Dublinum ad in stantem mediam Quadragesimam; una cum aliis Magnatibus nostris Hiberniae quibus●id mandavimus accedatis, audituri voluntatem nostram, & cum ip●o super praemissis, plenius tractaturi. T. ut supra.

Where the Dorses are for brevity omitted in any years of this or any the precedent Tables after a particular name you may readily find them in the precedent Sections, in the writs to the Prelates, Temporal Lords and Council, which are all entered together in the selfsame Rolls, and Dorses, when they all occur.   

General useful Observations on and from the precedent Writs of Summons, mentioned in the premised Sections; and the 7. Sections next ensuing in the second part following them.  
HAving thus presented you with 3▪ distinct Sections or Squadrons of Writs of Summons, to our Parliaments, Great Councils and Convocations, issued to Archbishops, Bishops, Abbots, Priors, and other Ecclesiastical Lords; the P. of Wales, Dukes, Earls, Barons Temporal Lords, and great men of the Realm, the King's Council, justices, with some useful particular Observations on them in each Section, I shall for a close of this first part of my brief Register, Calendar, and Survey of them, superadd some general necessary Observations on, and Conclusions from them, and the 7. next following Sections (which I intended to have annexed to this first part of my Register, but now shall reserve for the second,) for the further information of the Readers, the benefit of Posterity, and rectifying some Oversights in sundry printed trivial Discourses of our English Parliaments.  
First, From the manifold rare, delightful Varieties, Forms, Diversities, and distinct kinds of Writs of Summons, transcribed out of the Clause Rolls, in a Chronological method; Varied from time to time by our Kings, their Chancellors, Counsellors, and Officers, who form them, as there was occasion, without the privity or direction of their Parliaments, before the Statutes of 7. H. 4. c. 15. 6. H. 6. c. 4. 8. H. 6. c. 7. 23. H. 6. c. 11. 15. which ordered some new clauses to be inserted only into the Writs for Election of Knights of Shires, (and none else) for preventing and rectifying abuses in such elections, but prescribed no set unalterable future form●, for those or any other Writs of Summons, leaving the King and his Council at Free Liberty as before, to vary and alter them as they saw just cause; The Judicious Readers may clearly discern, what little credit is to be given to Reverend Sir Edward Cook's observation, in his slight 
a 4. Institutes p. 10.  discourse, Touching the Writs of Summons of Parliament, which are to be found in the close Rolls from time to time; Which begins thus. A●d it is to be Observed, that the substance of the Writs, aught to continue in their Original Essence, without any Alteration or Addition, unless it be by Act of Parliament. For if 
b Bractan. l. 5. f. 413. Britton. 122. 227. Fleta. l. 2. c. 12 West. 2. c. 23. 1. part of the instil. Sect. 101 f. 73. b.  Original Writs at the Common Law can receive no Alteration or Addition, but by Act of Parliament, A multo Fortiori, The Writs of the Summons of the Highest Court of Parliament, can receive no Alteration or Addition but by Act of Parliament, etc. But had this great Oracle of the Law, diligently considered the manifold varieties of the Writs of Summons to Parliaments, With their several Alteraions and Additions, made from time to time upon emergent occasions, without any Act or Order of Parliament; Or, had he remembered old 
c Lib. 5. f. 413.  Bractons, and his own distinction of these two different sorts of Original Writs, in the places he refers us to in his margin, viz. Brevia Originalia, quaedam sunt formata sub suis casibus, & de cursu, & De communi Concilio totius Regni concessa et Approbata quae quadem Nullatenus mutari poterint, absque consensu et voluntate ●orum: & quaedam Magistralia, et saepe variantur secundum varietatem casuum, factorum et quaerelarum,; and that by the Masters and Clarks of the Chancery themselves, according to the variety of every Man's case; as 
d Instis. f. ●3. b.  himself, and the Statute of VVestm. 2. c. 23. resolve us, without any Act, or common consent in Parliament, And then judiciously pondered, that Writs of Summons to Parliaments, are all of this latter kind, only Migistrali●, and frequently varied according to the several varieties of the causes, Public grievances Dangers, Emergences, Businesses, Complaints, occasioning their Summoning, expressed usually in these Writs different Prologues; he would certainly never have made such a strange erroneous Observation as this upon these Writs, contradicted by so many Precedents on record in all former ages; nor alleged such a pitiful mistaken Argument a multo Fortiori, and such Authorities to justify it; Which diametrically contradict both his reason and observation, the Writs of Summons being all of them Magistralia, not Formata sub suis Casibus, (as the miserably mistook them to be.) Therefore if such Magistral Writs are oft-times varied, according to the variety of cases, facts and complaints in particular men's cases, by the Clerks of Chancery, and Cursitors themselves, without Act of Parliament, a multo fortiori, may Writs of Summons to Parliaments of the self same kind, which concern the great weighty affairs of the King, Kingdom and Church of England, be varied, altered by the King himself, with the Advise of his Great Officers, Judges, Council, according to the variety of emergent occasions, requiring Parliaments to be called, without any Act or consent of Parliament authorising it, notwithstanding Sir Edward's groundless Assertion to the contrary, though prefaced with and it is to be observed; as I conceive it will henceforth be for a great mistake, although formerly believed as an undoubted Truth, upon his Ipse dixit; whose venerable reputation hath canonised many of his Apocryphal conceits, which have dangerously seduced most Students and Professors of the Law, with others who peruse his Institutes; for whose better Information, and Vindication of the truth alone, I have upon all just occasions both detected and corrected his formerly undiscerned Errors; and this here insisted on, I hope without just offence to any of his surviving Friends or Progeny; if they consider the duty and protestation of every ingenuous Christian, and Chronographer thus briefly expressed by St. Paul, 2 Cor. 13. 8. 
e See the 2. and 3. part of my Historical Collection and Vindication. My Abridgement of the ancient Councils and Parliaments of Eng.  We can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.  
Secondly, It is observable, that the word Parliamentum, is but once used or mentioned in any Writ of Summons, Act, Statute, Charter, Patent, or other Record that I have yet seen, either before or during the Reigns of King john or Henry the 3d. but only the word Concilium, Commune Concilium, Colloquium, Tractatum; placitum magnum, etc. which frequently occur, and are always used in them to express that Assembly of the States by, which in after times, and now is usually called Parliamentum. The very first mention, and use of this word, in any Writ or Record I have perused, is in the Writ of Summons to the Cinqueports, Cl. 49. H. 3. d. 11. summoning them ad instans Parliamentum nostrum, The next is in the Writ of Prorogation of the Parliament. Cl. 3. E. 1. 20. in dor. where it is twice thus mentioned in the Writ; Generale Parliamentum nostrum, eodem Parliamento, and once in the Margin, Do veniendo ad Parliamentum; And this Writ assures us that it was used in the Original Writs of Summons to this Parliament, though not extant, compared with the printed Prologue to the Acts therein established. The Writs of Summons from 3. to 23. E. 1. being not extant in the Rolls; the next use of this word I find, is in the Writ● of Summons & Prorogation, in Clau●. 23. E. 1. dorse 9 Cl. 28. E. 1. d. 3. 17. Cl. 30. E. 1d. 7. 9 Cl. 32. E. 1. d. 1. Cl. 33. E. 1. d. 9 10. 21. Claus. 34. E. 1. d. 2. and Claus. 35. E. 1. d. 13. In all which Writs under King Edward the first, not only. Colloquium & Tractatum, but also the word Parliamentum is mentioned, and also thus expressed in the Margin of the Rolls. De Parliamento tenendo, Deveniendo ad Parliamentum, De Parliamento Prorogando. And so is it likewise in the Writs de expensis Militum qui venerunt ad Parliamentum Regis, clau. 28. E. 1. dors. 12. cl. 29. E. 1. d. 17. cl. 33. E. 1. d. 15. cl. 34. E. E. 1. d. 11. and cl. 35. E. 1. d. 14. In the Writs and Rolls of Summons, and De expensis Militum & Burgensium, under Edward the 2d. it is commonly used and mentioned, as the premises evidence; Yet I find Parliamentum totally omitted again in sundry other Writs of Summons and Prorogations, and the words Colloquium, Tractatum, & Commune Consilium, only made use of in them; as in cl. 23. E. 1. d. 2. 4. cl. 24. E. 1. d. 7. cl. 25. E. 1. d. 25. cl. 27. E. 1. d. 9 16. 28. cl. 28. E. 1. d. 3. cl. 1. E. 2. d. 11. 19 cl. 2. E. 2. d. 11. 13. 14. 20. cl. 9 E. 2. d. 17. and in some other succeeding Rolls; yet in the Margin over against these Writs, I find in divers of these Rolls, De Parliamento tenendo; De veniendo ad Parliamentum, Summonitio & Prorogatio Parliamenti, written, though the words Parliamentum, be not extant in the Writs themselves.  
The first use of the word Parliamentum, in any Act or Statute in my Observation, is in the Prologue to the Statutes of Westminster, 1. An. 3. E. 1. which it styles, Son Primer Parliament general apres Son coronement. The next usage of it is in 7. E. 1. Rastal Armour 1. Wherein it is twice mentioned: After which I find it used in the Prologue of Westminster, 2. 13. E. 1. and c. 24. In the Statute of Merchants, 13. E. 1. The Statutes De Quo warranto; De terris vendendis & emendis, 18. E. 1. The Statute of Waste for Heirs, end of Defending Rights, 20. E. 1. The Statutes De non ponendis in Assisis, and De Malefactoribus i● parcis, 21. E. 1. The Statute of Persons appealed, 28. E. 1. And the Prologue to Articuli super cartas the same year: The Statutes De Escheatoribus, 29. E. 1. The New Statutes of Quo warranto, 30. E. 1. Ordinatio Forestae, 33. E. 1. De asportatis Religiosorum, c. 1. In most succeeding Prologues to all Statutes and divers Acts, ever since King Edward the 1. it is commonly and frequently used; (as also in our 
f Matth. Westminster, 2. p. 363, 264, 387, 321, 405, 411, 415, 438, 439, 463, 464, col. 1965, 1977.  Historians in that age) In the Prologue to Articuli Cleri, An. 9 E. 2. there is this observable Recital. Sciatis quod cum Dubum temporibus Progenitorum nostrorum Regum Angliae, in diver sis Parliamentis suis, & similiter postquam Regni gubernacula suscipimus, In Parliamentis nostris, etc. Ac nuper in Parliamento nostro apud Lincoln, etc. Attributing this title of Parliamentum, not only to the Parliaments held under Edward the 2d. and first, but to General Councils of State, and Conferences held by our Kings, Lords, & great Men, in the Reigns of their Progenitors, who were totally unacquainted with this Word, and never used it for aught I can yet discover. It is agreed by all who have written of the 
f Cooks 1. Instit. p. 109, 110, 4. Instit, c. 1.  Antiquity, or use of our English Parliaments, that the word Parliamentum, is no proper Latin word, 
Cromtons' Jurisdiction of Courts, Ch. 1. The Antiquity of the Parliaments of England, by Justice Dodridge and others, p. 43. 65, 66.  for that we call a Parliament, but Colloquium, Tractatus, & commune Concilium Regni nostri, still retained in the Writs of Summons, as well since the use of the word Parliamentum grew common, as before in was inserted into such Writs: That it is originally a mere French Word, first introduced amongst us by the Norman Monks, or being taken from the French, who styled the public conventions of their Kings and Princes a Parliament, in their own Language, and coined this new Latin word Parliament●m out of it. But when, and by whom it was first introduced and used in England, is a great dispute amongst truly judicious Antiquaries. Many there are who conceive it to be used in the S●xons time, and 
* The Antiquity of the Parliament of England, p. 78, 79. writes, that this word was first brought into this Realm by the French Monks and first used by the Statists in the time of H. 1. & that Abbot Ingulphus, first used it, who died in the year 1109.  long before the reign of King Henry the 3d, because many Latin and English Historians and Chronologers, who (have written since the Reign of King Henry the 3d.) do sometimes give the title of Parliamentum, & Parliament, to our great Councils and Assemblies of the King, and of the spiritual and temporal Lords in those ancient times, in their relations of them: But this questionless is a gross mistake; since not one of all their great Councils in any of their Titles, Prologues, Laws, Cannons, Edicts, Acts, recorded by Brompton, Lambard, Sir Henry Spelman, Whe●lock, Fox, and others; nor any of our Historians living and writing in those times, before the later end of King Henry the 3d. (as Gildas, Beda, A●helwerdus, Asser Menevensis, Ingulphus, Willielmus, Malmes buriensis, Eadmerus, Florentius Wigorniensis, Simeon Dun●lmensis, Aelredus Abbas, Henry de Huntindon, Sylvester Gyraldhes, Gulielmus Neubrigeusis, Simeon & Richardus Hagustaldensis, Radulphus de Diceto, Roger Wendover, Thomas Spot, Gervasius Doroberniensis, & Tilburiensis, Willielmus Stephanides, Gualterus Mapes, Gualterus Coventriensis, Richardus Heliensis, Thomas Stubs, & Petrus Hen●am) nor yet Glanvill, Bracton, Andrew Horn, and other Lawyers flourishing under H. the 2. and 3. do once use, or apply this word Parliamentum, to any one Grand parliamentary Council, which they always call by other Names, for aught I can yet discover upon my best search and inquiry.  
The very first of all our Writers or Historians in my Observation, who made use of this word, and applied it to the Common Councils of our Realm, is Matthew Paris 
h See Balaeus. Script. Brit. cens. 4. c. 26. p 315, 316.  flourishing about the midsts, and dying before the end of King Henry the 3d. Anno. 1259. the 43. of his Reign. He in his Historia Angliae, from the beginning of the Conqueror's Reign, till the year 1246. (the 30th. of Henry the 3d.) always made use of the words Concilium, Concilium magnum, Colloquium Tractatus, and the like, to express all Parliamentary Great Councils, and State Assemblies held in England; near the space of 200. years before he Writ, and never of Parliamentum. But in Anno gratiae, 1246. and 1247. and in no other years before or after, he useth this word five or six times only, in these ensuing passages 
i Edit. Tigrui. 1589. p. 674. 677. 686. 687.  Anno 1246. Convenit ad Parliamentum Generalissimum totius Regni Angliae totalis Nobilitas Londini. &c, Over against which the Publisher, not he, adds in the Margin Parliamentum habitum Londini, After which he subjoins Convenientibus igitur ad Parliamentum m●moratum totius Regni Magnatibus: Then follows, Et postea in Anglia in Parliamento Regis ubi congregata fuerat totius Regni tam Cleri quam Militiae Generalis Vniversitas, deliberatum, etc. Yet in the very next page, he returns to his old term again. Die vero translationis Thomae Martyris habitum est magnum Concilium, inter Regem & Regni Magnates, apud Wintoniam. Over against which, his continuer or publisher hath placed this marginal Note. Parliamentum habitum apud Winton. The like he doth in p. 560. 561, 687, 714. and elsewhere, inserting in the Margin, Parliamentum Generale etc., When as Matthew Paris useth it not, but Concilium only, or the like in his Text. In his 
k Ibidem p. 702. 707.  History of the next year 1●47. He proceeds thus. Dominus Rex Francorum Regni sui Nobiles tam Cleri quam Populi generaliter Edicto Regio fecit convocari, ut Ad Parliamentum communiter convenientes, ardu negocia Regni sui statum contingentia, diligenter, deliberando, contrectarent. And Five pages after, Dominus Rex (H. 3.) jussit omnem totius Regni Nobilitatem convocari, etc. Oxoniis: Praelatosautem maxim Ad hoc Parliamentum vocavit arctius. Applying the word Parliamentum, to these Assemblies of the King, Lords and Nobles, both in France and England, held this year, about the weighty affairs of their respective Kingdoms. In his Additamenta to the last Addition of his History printed at London, p. 170. he useth the word Parliamentum only once, and that in another sense; For the conference and discourse of Monks with one another after their repasts, then prohibited the black Monks by special Order, as an impediment to their contemplations and prayers. In no places else of his History or other printed pieces, do I find he made use of this word. Indeed, the continuer of his History from the year 1258. to the end of King Henry's Reign 1273. (whom 
l Scriptorum Brit. Cen. 4. c. 94.  john Bale informs us to be William Rishanger) flourishing under King Edward the 1. & 2. (when this word Parliamentum grew common both in Writs of Summons, Statutes, & vulgar Speech) makes frequent use thereof in his History, applying it to great Councils of the Realm, in the latter end of Henry the 3d. both in the Text and Margin; as in Page 788, 933. 935. 938. 940. 948. 960. 967. 974. of his continuation, Editione Tiguri, 1589, and so doth Matthew Westminster (who continued the History of Matthew Paris) flourishing under the Reign of King Edward the third, 
a See the preface to Mat Paris, and Mat Westm, 〈◊〉 Script. Brit. Cent. 6. c. 31.  when this word Parliamentum was commonly used in all Writs of Summons, Statutes, Writers and Vulgar speech) makes frequent use thereof, applying it to the Great Councils of State towards the latter end of King Henry the third, in his Flores Historiarum, Londini 1570. pars 2. p. 206, 207, 223, 254. 261. 280, 296, 300, 317, 345. and in subsequent Pages to the Parliaments held under King Edward the first.

Paris, that I have yet seen or heard of. From whence (to omit other Arguments, with the Writs de Expensis Militum & Burgensium levandis, mentioned in the Modus tenendi Parlamentum, though in no Records before, Claus. 28.

o See my seasonable Legal Historical Vindication. part. 3. p. 231, 232, 233.  in King Cnutes Reign, or not long after it) but after Henry the 3. his Reign; since the words Parliamentum, in suo public● Parliamento, tunc in eodem Parliamento personaliter existentibus were not grown in use till Edward the 1, 2, & 3. and the whole clause he prints out of it in his Preface to his 9 Reports, prove it to be written under one of these three Kings Reigns, if not after them, as the Modus was: By both which you may easily discern, how little insight this great Lawyer had in Histories, Antiquities, or Records, as to be cheated, besotted with such Impostures, and bottom his Discourses of our Parliaments upon such spurious rotten Foundations as these.  
3. That no Oath nor Engagement whatsoever was anciently imposed on the Members of the Lords or Commons House, 
●. 11. p. 40.  to debar or seclude any of them from sitting or voting, much less were any of them suspended or forcibly kept out of either House till they had taken any new-invented Oath, prescribed them only by a prevailing party, without a Legal Act of Parliament ratified both by the Kings, Lords, and Commons in an orderly manner; such enforced seclusive Oaths, being inconsistent both with the Freedom, Privileges, Rights of old English Parliaments. The Parliament of 1. Eliz. c. 1. upon the abolishing of Popery, and restitution of the Protestant Religion, having by unanimous consent of the three States, made and prescribed an Oath of supremacy (for the preservation of the ancient Rights and Royalties of the Crown of England, and of the persons of the Queen, her heirs and successors, against the usurpations, claims, practices of the Bishop, of Rome, and his confederates) on all Arch-Bishops, Bishops, Arch-Deacons, Clergymen, and temporal officers: By reason of the manifold Plots and Treasons of the Pope and Papists against the Queen's person, Crown, and Realm, the Parliament of 5. Eliz. c. 1. thought fit to prescribe this Oath, for the better detection of persons popishly affected, not only to all Readers, Barresters, Graduates in the Universities, Schoolmasters, Sheriffs, and other inferior Officers, but likewise to all future Knights, Citizens, and Burgesses of Parliament; enacting, That every person who shall be hereafter elected or appointed a Knight, Citizen, Burgess, or Baron of the five Ports, for any Parliament or Parliaments hereafter to be holden, shall from henceforth, before he shall enter into the Parliament House, or have any voice there, openly receive and pronounce the said Oath before the Lord Steward for the time being, or his Deputy or Deputies for that time to be appointed. And that he which shall enter into the Parliament, House, without taking the said Oath, shall be deemed no Knight, Citizen, Burgess, nor Baron for that Parliament, nor shall have any voice, but shall be to all intents, constructions, and purposes, as if he had never been returned or elected Knight, Citizen, Burgess or Baron for the Parliament, and shall suffer such pains and penalties, as if he had presumed to sit in the same without Election, return, or authority. Provided, that this Act, nor any thing therein shall not extend to compel any temporal person of or above the degree of A Baron of the Realm, to take or pronounce the Oath abovesaid, nor to incur any penalty limited by this Act for not taking or refusing the same. This is the first Act ever imposing an Oath upon any Members before their sitting and voting in the Parliament House: wherein five things are observable.  
1. That this Oath was made by unanimous consent of the Queen, Lords and Commons in Parliament.  
2. That it was five years a probationer, and approved, ratified by two successive Parliaments, before it was imposed upon any Members, and not actually administered to any till the Parliament of 8. Elizabeth.  
3. That it was imposed only upon the Members of the Commons House, not upon any temporal Lords or Barons of the Realm.  
4. That the principal end of prescribing it was, to abolish the Pope's usurped supremacy, and prevent his and his instruments Traitorous attempts against the Queen's person, Crown, Kingdom, discover persons popishly affected, and seclude them from sitting or voting in the Commons House if elected, returned, unless they should first take this Oath: Not to debar or exclude any real Protestants, when duly elected, from entering into the Parliament house to discharge their trusts and duties.  
5. That it appoints no Officers or armed Guards forcibly to seclude any Knight, Citizen, Burgess, or Baron of the Ports till he hath openly taken and pronounced this Oath, but only lays 2 particular inhibition upon every such Member himself, not to enter the House without taking it, under the disabilities and penalties therein mentioned: leaving every Member a liberty to seclude himself in case he were unsatisfied, or could not in conscience or prudence take this Oath, but authorising none else to keep him perforce out of the House, if he had a mind to rush into it without taking it. After this the Parliament of 3. jacobi. c. 4. upon the detection and prevention of the in●ernal Gunpowder Treason of the Pope, Jesuits and Papists, to blow up the King, Queen, Prince, Lords, Commons, and Parliament, when all assembled together in the Lord's House, November 5 Anno 1605. by unanimous consent of the three Estates, made and prescribed a New Oath of Allegianoe to all persons, except Péers of the Realm, who actually were, or should be suspected to be Papists, for their better discovery and conviction, without imposing it upon any Members of either House. Which Oath many Papists oppugning with false and unsound Arguments, 
* 7. Jac. c. 6.  though tending only to the declaration of such duty, as every true, well-affected subject, not only by his bond of Allegiance, but also by the commandment of Almighty God ought to bear to the King's Majesty, his Heirs and Successors; Thereupon the Lords and Commons in the Parliament of 7. jacobs: (when this Oath had been approved four years' space) not only enacted, ch. 2. that every person who should henceforth be naturalised or restored in blood, should first take this oath; but to show their great approbation thereof, humbly prostrating themselves at his Majesty's feet, did earnestly beseech him, that the same Oath might be administered to all his Subjects what soever; And thereupon it was enacted, ch. 6. That all and every Knights, Citizens, Burge●●es, and Barons of the Five-Ports of the Commons House of Parliament, ●before he or they shall be permitted to e●ter the said House, shall make, take, and renew the said corporal Oath upon the Evangelists before the Lord Steward for the time being, or his Deputy or Deputies, without imposing any disability or penalty, or appointing any Officers forcibly to seclude those from entering who refused it. Since these recited Acts, all Members of the Commons House have constantly taken these two Oaths voluntarily, without coercion or forcible seclusion, before they entered or sat as Members in the House. The last Parliament of 16. Caroli in their first Act, for preventing the inconveniences happening by the long intermission of Parliaments, enacted: That all and every the Members that shall be elected to serve in any Parliament hereafter to be assembled by virtue of this Act, shall assemble and enter into the Commons House of Parliament, and shall enter into the same, and shall have voices in Parliament, before and without the taking of the several Oaths of Supremacy and Allegiance, or either of them, any Law or Statute to the contrary thereof in any wise notwithstanding. Provided always, that if the King's Majesty, his Heirs or Successors, shall at any time during any Parliament hereafter to be assembled by virtue of this Act, award or direct any Commission to any person or persons whatsoever to take or receive the said Oaths, of all or any Members of the Commons House of Parliament, and any Members of the House being duly required thereunto, shall refuse or neglect to take and pronounce the same, that from thenceforth such person so refusing or neglecting shall be deemed no Member of that House, nor shall have any voice therein, and shall suffer such pains and penalties, as if he had presumed to sit in the same House without Election, return or authority. These Statutes being all in their full force, never legally repealed, & authorising no Officers nor Soldiers whatsoever forcibly to seclude or punish any Member of the Commons House, for not taking both or either of these two Legal Oaths of Supremacy and Allegiance ratified by so many indubitable Parliaments one after another, and backed by the 
p A Collection of Ordinances. p. 420. K. 430.  solemn League, Covenant, and Protestation; it is neither in the power of the King himself, or his Council, nor of the House of Lords, or any other persons whatsoever (much less of the Commons House alone, or any prevailing party in it, who never in any age had the least Legal right or authority to administer an Oath in any case to any witness or person whatsoever, much less to impose any New Oaths upon their fellow-Members sitting with them, or secluded by them, and on all succeeding Members of that House in future Parliaments) to enforce any New Oath or Engagement whatsoever, inconsistent with, or repugnant to these two Legal Parliamentary Oaths, or to suspend, exclude, or eject any Knight, Citizen, Burgess, or Baron of the Ports duly elected and returned, from sitting or voting with them in the Commons House, for refusing such new Engagement or Oath; it being directly contrary not only to the Freedom, Privilege of our English Parliaments, Laws, Liberties, but to the very letter of the 
q 3 Caroli.  Petition of Right ratified by K. Charles himself, which complained of, and provides against the administering of any Oath not warranted by the Laws and Statutes of this Realm, and enacts, That no Man hereafter shall be called to take such Oath (as being repugnant to their Rights, Liberties, the Laws and Statutes of the Land (much less than no Members of Parliament enforced by their fellow-Members to take such an Oath, or else be suspended, secluded the House of Commons) 
r Mr. rushworth's Historical Collections. p. 423.  & that former proceedings of this kind (in the case of Loans, wherein such an oath was prescribed, exacted) should not be drawn hereafter into consequence or example; Yea contrary to the House of Commons 
s Exact collection. p. 8.  Remonstrants of the State of the Kingdom, 15. Decemb. 1641. who therein charge the King's evil Counsellors, That New Oaths have been enforced upon the Subjects against Law, and new judicatures erected without Law (which some who thus remonstrated have since that actually done, to the secluding of sundry Members of their own new-modeled Parliaments, for refusing to take new illegal Oaths, and Engagements, repugnant to their old ones of Supremacy and Allegiance) if not the very third Article of the late Petition and Advice, viz. That the ancient and undoubted Liberties and Privileges of Parliament (which are the Birthright and Inheritance of the people, and wherein every man it interessed) be preserved and maintained, and that you will not break nor interrupt the same, nor suffer them to be broken or interrupted. And particularly, that those persons who are legally chosen by a free Election of the people to serve in Parliament, may not be secluded from sitting in Parliament to do their duties, but by judgement and assent of that House whereof they are Members. Therefore not by any armed Guards without any hearing or judgement whatsoever: Which had some of those Army-Officers and Swordmen well considered, who assented to this Article and Petition; they would never have forcibly secluded, secured, imprisoned myself, and sundry other Members of the late Parliament, only for the faithful discharge of our Oaths, Duties, without, yea against the judgement of the House whereof they were Members, which God in judgement hath repaid on some of them since that, with a suitable Retaliation, Seclusion, Restraint, by some of their own confederates in that unrighteous Anti-parliamentary action.  
4 That there is no one Precedent exstant in our Histories or Records in former Ages, nor from 49. Henry 3. till the end of King Charles his Reign, of any Writs issued to Sheriffs or other Officers in Ireland, or Scotland (though subordinate and subject to our English Kings and Parliaments) for electing Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, or Commissioners to sit or vote as Members of the Commons-house in any Parliaments or great Councils of England; nor yet for any Knights, Citizens, Burgesses out of Gersy, Gernsey, Alderny, Serke, Man, Silly, or other Islands belonging to England. 
a 37. H. 8. c. 26. 34 H. 8. c. 26.  Yea the Principality of Wales itself (though ever subjected and united to England as part thereof) never sent any Knights, Citizens, or Burgesses to the Parliaments of England, as Members thereof, till enabled by special Acts of Parliament, Anno 27. H. 8. c. 26. & 35. H. 8. c. 11. Nor yet the County Palatine of Chester, though a part and member of England, till specially enabled by the Statute of 34. H. 8. c. 13. neither did, much less than can or ought any Counties, Cities, Burroughs in Scotland, or Ireland, to claim or pretend the least colour of Right, Law, or Reason, to send any Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, (or Peers) to sit or vote in the Parliaments of England, neither aught any such if elected, returned to be of right admitted into our English Parliaments.  
1. Because they never enjoyed this privilege heretofore in any Age, nor pretended to it.  
2. Because they are very remote from the places where our English Parliaments are held, and it will not be only extraordinarily troublesome, expensive, vexatious, inconvenient for them, when elected, to resort so far to our English Parliaments, but dangerous, (especially to cross the Seas out of Ireland in the Winter season) and mischievous.  
Thirdly, Because if any of them be unduly elected, returned (as is most probable the most of them will be so) it must necessarily put them to intolerable expenses, trouble, vexation, and almost an impossibility to examine, determine the legality or illegality of such Elections, and returns from Scotland and Ireland. The Parliaments being likely to be determined, or adjourned before the Sheriffs and other Officers, who unduly returned them, can be summoned, and witnesses produced thence to prove the abuses or injustice of such Elections: so that any persons thence returned by those in power, though never elected, or very unduly through favour, power, or corruption of Officers, shall sit and vote as Members, whilst those who were duly chosen and entrusted by the people, shall be secluded and left without relief.  
4 Because Scotland and Ireland, 
* See my Argument of the case of the Lord Maguire.  though united to England, always were, and yet are distinct Realms and Republics, never incorporated into England, or its Parliament, as natural proper Members thereof: they all having by their own Fundamental Laws, Statutes, Customs, Rights, Privileges, their peculiar proper Parliaments, Peers, Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, Courts, judicatures, Councils, and judges distinct, divided from, and not intercommoning with one another. The Peers, Lords, Knights, Citizens, Burgesses of England having no place, voice, nor right of Session in the Parliaments of Scotland or Ireland, though in many things subordinate to the Parliaments of England, and subject to Acts of Parliament made in them, and the Lords, Peers, Citizens, Burgesses of the Parliaments of Scotland, and Ireland, being no Lords, Peers, Knights, Citizens or Burgesses at all in England or its Parliaments, being distinct from theirs, and summoned unto their own Parliament only, as I shall hereafter manifest in its due place. This is evident not only by the distinct printed Laws and Statutes of England, Scotland, and Ireland, and those Historians, who have written of them (especially Holinshed, Bucana●, and Mr. Cambden) but likewise by Mr. Seldens Titles of Honour, p. 2. c. 5, 6, 7, Cooks 4 Institutes, ch. 1. 75, 76. Cooks 7 Reports, calvin's case. The Statute of 1 jacobi, ch. 1, 2, 3. jacobi, c. 3, 4. jacobi, ch. 1. 7. jacobi, ch. 1. which fully confirm and establish the distinct Parliaments, Rights, Laws, Liberties, Customs, jurisdictions, judicatures of the Realm● of England, and Scotland.  
5. Because the calling and admission of Scotish Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, or Peers unto the Parliaments of England, and giving them a voice and Legislative power therein, both in Relation to England, Scotland and Ireland, though united under one King and Sovereign Lord, is diametrically contrary, First, to all these recited Acts, and the Propositions, proceedings mentioned in them, referred to the consideration and determination of the Parliaments of both Realms, as separate and distinct from each other, and not incorporated into one body, Realm, or Parliament; whose peculiar distinct Rights, Jurisdictions, Powers, Parliaments, are since that in precise terms confirmed and perpetuated, without any union or incorporation into one undivided body politic. Secondly, Because it is expressly contradictory to the late Act of 17. Caroli, passed, ratified in and by the Parliaments of both Kingdom, for the confirmation of the Treaty of Pacification between the two Kingdoms of England and Scotland. Wherein the Commissioners deputed by the Parliament of Scotland, to treat with the Commissioners appointed by the King and Parliament of England, for the saving of the Rights of Scotland, that the English might not claim any joint right or interest with the Scots, in the things that concerned their Parliaments, or Kingdom, in their papers of the 7. of August 1641. did declare and make known, that although they were fully assured that the Kingdom and Parliament of England, was for the present far from any thought of usurpation over the Kingdom and Parliament of Scotland, or their Laws and Liberties, yet for preventing the misunderstanding of posterity, and of strangers, and for satisfying the scruples of others not acquainted with the nature of this Treaty, and the manner of their proceedings, which may arise upon their coming into England, and their treating in time of Parliament: That neither by our treaties with the English,, nor by seeking our Peace to be established in Parliament, nor any other action of ours, do we acknowledge any dependence upon them, or make them judges to us or our Laws, or any things that may import the smallest prejudice to our Liberties. But that we come in a free and brotherly way, by our Informations to remove all doubts that may arise concerning the proceedings of our Parliament, and to join our endeavours in what may conduce for the peace and good of both Kingdoms, no otherwise than if by occasion of the King's Residence in Scotland, Commissioners in the like Exigence, should be sent thither from England. Thirdly, It is point-blank against the solemn League and Covenant, ratified and confirmed in the most sacred and public manner, The 3 Article whereof, taken with hands lifted up to heaven, and subscribed by the Parliaments of both Kingdoms, and all others well-affected in both Realms, doth thus preserve the distinct Privileges of the Parliaments of both Realms, in these words. We shall with the same sincerity, reality, and constancy in our several vocations, endeavour with our estates and lives, mutually to preserve the Rights and Privileges of the Parliaments, and the Liberties of the Kingdoms of England and Scotland; which are likewise distinguished from each other in every other Article, the Prologue and Conclusion of the League and Covenant, and all Ordinances that confirm it. 4. As if this were not sufficient; it is directly contrary to the 
* A Collection of Ordinances, p. 877, 878.  Declaration of the Commons of England assembled in Parliament, 17, April, 1646. of their true intention inviolably to maintain the Ancient and Fundamental Government of the Kingdom, by King, Lords and Commons, the Government of the Church, securing the people against all arbitrary Government, and maintaining a right understanding between the two Kingdoms of England, and Scotland, according to the Covenant and Treaties; To the Commons printed Answers to the Scots Commissioners Papers 28 of November 1646. Yea to the Lords and Commons Houses joint Declaration, the 29. of june 1646. In all which they 
* See the Independency of England, by Henry Martin, 1628.  do professedly declare, assert, argue, resolve, the absolute Independency, distinct Rights, jurisdictions of the Kingdoms and Parliaments of England and Scotland, from the very Articles of the solemn League and Covenant, and Treaties between both Kingdoms, and other Evidences, grounds, reasons, positively asserting, That the Parliament and Kingdom of England is, and aught to be the sole and proper judge of what may be for the good of this Kingdom; and that the Kingdom and Parliament of Scotland, neither have, nor aught to have any joynt-concurrent share or interest with them therein, nor right of joynt-exercise of interest in disposing the person of the King in the Kingdom of England. And that the selfsame liberty and privilege always had been admitted, and ever shall be carefully and duly observed by them and the Parliament and Kingdom of England, to the Kingdom and Parliament of Scotland in all things that concern that Kingdom; And that it was not the intention of the Lords and Commons in the Parliament of England, nor of the Commissioners of the Parliament of Scotland, in sending Propositions to the King, in the name, and in the behalf of both Kingdoms, by joint-consent, that any construction should be made therefrom, as if either Kingdom had any interest in each others Propositions, or in the Legislative Power of each other concerning any of the said Propositions; but that it remaineth distinct in each Kingdom and Parliament respectively. And that notwithstanding any joynt-proceeding upon the said Propositions, either Kingdom hath power of themselves to continue, repeal, or alter any Law that shall be made upon the said Propositions for the good and government of either Kingdom respectively. And both Houses did therein declare, that they are fully resolved to maintain, and preserve inviolable the solemn League and Covenant, and the Treaties between the Kingdoms of England and Scotland. Now the calling and incorporating of Scotish and Irish Peers, Knights, Citizens, and Burgesses into the Parliaments of England, as Members, Voters, Legislators, together with the English, to oblige both England, Scotland, and Ireland, against the ancient, unquestionable, distinct, fundamental Rights, Privileges of the Kingdoms, Parliaments, people, both of England, Scotland, and Ireland (all whose Parliaments, Rights, Privileges, Liberties, will be totally subverted by it as well as our English) is so contradictory, so repugnant to, and inconsistent with all and every of these recited Acts, Ordinances, Declarations, clauses of the solemn League and Covenant, to the Great Charter of King john, all ancient Writs of Summons to English, Irish or Scotish Parliaments, all Acts for Electing Knights, Burgesses, and concerning Parliaments formerly established in all these three Kingdoms, as distinct, that no conscientious Heroick Englishman, Scot, or Inhabitant of Ireland, who cordially affects the honour, maintenance, preservation of his own native Countries, Kingdoms, or Parliaments fundamental Rights, Privileges, Liberties, or makes conscience of violating the Articles of this solemn League and Covenant he hath formerly taken, and subscribed in the presence of Almighty God, Angels and Men, with this protestation; we shall not suffer ourselves directly or indirectly by whatsoever combinatien, persuasion or terror to be divided or withdrawn from it, either by making defection to the contrary part, or by giving ourselves to a detestable indifferency or neutrality; but shall all the days of our lives constantly continue therein against all opposition, and promote the same according to our Power against all Lets and Impediments whatsoever and this we shall do in the sight and presence of Almighty God, the searcher of all hearts, with a true intention to perform the same, as we shall answer the contrary at the great day, when the secrets of all hearts shall be disclosed;; can ever in conscience, justice, reason, policy or prudence submit thereto, but is bound to oppose and resist with all his power, for the premised Reasons.

Because the proportioning and distribution of the thirty persons to be elected for Scotland, and the thirty others for Ireland, and incorporating of these sixty Scotish and Irish Knights, Citizens, and Burgesses into the Parliaments of England, was not projected, effected, approved, ratified by the free, full, and joynt-consents of the respective Parliaments of England, Scotland, and Ireland, but only by about twenty or thirty Army-Officers, in a private Cabinet Conventicle, at Whitehall, without yea against their privities, and consents, by their Instrument of Government, which they then published, 16 Decemb. 1653. Artic. 9, 10, 11. having not the least shadow of any Legal Power or Authority, to oblige our 3 distinct Kingdoms, Nations, Parliaments, much less to subvert and abolish them, by new melting them into one body, contrary to their very fundamental Laws, Constitutions, Rights, Privileges, to their grand prejudice and dishonour. Therefore there is no reason for either of them to submit and conform thereto. The rather, because this Instrument was never ratified by any, but opposed by every public Convention, since its publication, yea totally set aside (if ever valid) by the last of them, in and by this clause of their humble Petition and Advice, Artic. 3, 4. That the number of persons to be elected and chosen to sit and serve in Parliament for England, Scotland, and Ireland, and distribution of the persons so chosen, within the Counties, Cities, and Burroughs of them respectively, may be according to such proportions as shall be agreed in this present Parliament: which agreed nothing concerning the same: And both the Instrument and Advice being now set aside by those in present power, by issuing Writs for electing Knights, Citizens, and Burgesses throughout England, according to the ancient Laws, Usage, Custom, and not according to the Instrument or Advice, by which the English and Commons House are now remitted to their old Parliamentary Rights & Privileges. They are obliged upon all these Reasons, Authorities, and Considerations, henceforth to seclude all Scotish and Irish Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, or Peers, from sitting or voting amongst them as Members, and aught to treat with them only as Delegates or Commissioners sent from both Nations touching such affairs as particularly relate to Scotland and Ireland, according to

Caroli. here p. 414, 415, 416.  ancient and late Precedents, but not to permit them any place or vote at all in the Commons or Lords House, as joynt-Members, Legislators with the English, in the Parliaments of England.  
7. Because the thrity persons to be chosen for Scotland, and the other thirty for Ireland, and the several Counties, Cities, and Borroughs within the same, to represent and oblige both these Kingdoms and Nations, as their Representativees and Attorneys, are not to be elected by the generality of both Kingdoms, as in justice, reason, equity they ought to be, but by such as the Major part of the Council at Whitehall shall prescribe, as the 9th. Article in the Instrument declares, some whole Counties, and eminent Cities in both Kingdoms, having no voices at all in the Elections of these Members, and therefore not to be obliged by them, as 44. E. 3. f. 19 11. H. 7. 14. 21. H. 7. 40. 23, H. 8. Br. Lert. 27. 7. H. 6. 35. 6. Dyer 373. b. resolve. This being a general Rule in Law, Justice, Reason, inserted into the very Writs of Summons to Parliament, Claus. 24. E. 1. m. 7. dorso (here) p. 6. Ut quod omnes tangit ab omnibus approb●tur. And the sole reason why Acts of Parliament oblige all those who send Knights and Burgesses to them, and not tenants in Ancient Demesn, is only this, because they assent unto them, in and by their representatives, as the Statute of 1 jac. c. 1. 4. H. 7. 10. Brooke Parliament, 25. 27. 41. Ash Parliament, 10. and Proclamation, 39 and the Law-books Authorities there collected to this purpose determine.  
8. In the 
* See Mr. rushworth's Historical Collections. p. 237.  Parliament of a Caroli, the Lords Spiritual and Temporal then in Parliament assembled, exhibited this Petition to the King: That whereas they heretofore in civility as to strangers yielded precedency according to their several degrees unto such Nobles of Scotland and Ireland, as being in Titles above them, have resorted hither; Now divers of the natural born Subjects of these Kingdom's resident here with their families, and having their estates among us, do by reason of some late created dignities in those Kingdoms of Scotland and Ireland, claim precedency of the Peers of this Realm, which tends both to the disservice of your Majesty, a●d to the disparagement of the English Nobility, as by these Reasons may appear.  
1. It is a nobelty without Precedent, that men should inherit honours where they possess nothing else.  
2. It is injurious to those Countries from whence their Titles are derived, that they should have a vo●e in Parliament where they have not a foot of Land, etc. Upon the consideration of which inconveniencies they humbly beseeched his Majesty, that an order might be timely settled therein to prevent the inconvenience to his Majesty, and redress the prejudice and disparagement to the Peers and Nobility of this Kingdom occasioned thereby, which the King promised to do. And is it not a far greater inconvenience, prejudice and disparagement to the Nobility, Gentry, and Parliaments of England, yea a greater Novelty and Injury than this they then petitioned against, not only for the Nobility, but for the very Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, of Scotland, and Ireland, to sit with, and take place of the ancient Peers, Knights, Citizens, and Burgesses of England, according to their several Titles, and to enjoy an equal vote, judicature, privilege with them in every particular, in the very Parliaments of England, which they never formerly did, though they have not one foot of Land in England, nor the English any vote of place in their Parliaments? No doubt it is. Therefore as fit to be timely redressed, as that grievance, upon the selfsame grounds, being more universal, prejudicial and dishonourable to the whole English Peerage, Parliament and Nation, than this which concerned the English Peers alone, and that only out of Parliament.  
9 This number of Members sent from Scotland and Ireland to the Parliaments of England, holds no just not equal proportion or distribution with the numbers of Members, which they formerly elected and sent to their own respective Parliaments, in Scotland and Ireland, as is evident by the Irish Statutes of 18, E. 4. c. 2. 10. H. 7. c. 16, 38. H. 8. c. 12. 33. H. 8. c. 1. Cooks 4. justit. c. 75, 76. and Regiam Majestatem, nor yet in reference to the number of the Members and Parliament-men in England, being near ten to one to the Members of both these Nations conjoined, which inequality upon all occasions may prove very prejudicial to them both.  
10. It will be an extraordinary grievance, oppression, expense, vexation, mischief, delay and obstruction of Justice to all the Inhabitants of Scotland and Ireland, not only to bear the Expenses of all the Members they send to the Parliaments of England, but to be enforced to resort unto them in person, together with their Witnesses, Evidences, and Council, for all grievances, oppressions, injuries, errors, complains and misdemeans in Officers or Courts of Justice formerly redressed, and remediable only in their own proper Parliaments, much nearer home, and now only to be heard, examined, redressed, determined in the Parliaments of England, as the Claus. Roll. of 39 E. 3. M. 12. De erroribus corrigendis in Parliament is tenend is in Hibernia (printed in my Epistle to my Argument of the case of the Lord Mag●●re) most fully and excellently resolves: And the multitudes of complaints, out of all three Kingdoms will prove so great in every Parliament, that it will be impossible to hear and determine the moiety of them at any one Session or Parliament, and the attendance will prove so tedious to all or most, that it will become a greater grievance to them than any they complain of, and if they gain any relief, it will be in effect, a Remedy as bad or worse, as the diseas● it cures: Yea an express violation of Magna Charta. ch. 29. Nulli negabimus, nulli differemus justitiam aut rectum: Finally, This patching of New Scotish and Irish Members into our old English Parliament, will be so far from uniting and contenting the three Nations and Parliaments in one, that it will discontent and disunite them more than before, and make the rend the greater upon every occasion, as Christ himself resolves, with whose words I shall close up this observation: 
* Mark. 2. 21.  No man seweth or putteth a piece of new Cloth upon an old Garment, 
* Luk. 5. 36.  else the new piece that filleth it up, taketh away from the old, and agreeth not with the old, and the rent is made worse.  
5. That as the Writs of the Common Law, are the foundations whereon the whole Law, and subsequent proceedings do depend, as 
a De Legibus & consuetudini, Regni Angliae.  Glanvil, 
b Lib. 5.  Bracton, 
c Cap. 48.  Britton, 
d Lib 2. c. 12.  Fleta heretofore, 
e Prae●ace to Na●. Brevium.  Fitzherbert, 
f D●gest of Writs.  Thelwell, 
g 1. Instit. f. 73. b.  Sir Edward Cook, and others of later times resolve; upon which account if the Writs be vicious, erroneous, invalid, illegal, or null in Law, they abate, vitiate, and annihilate the whole Process, Declarations, and Struotures grounded on them, as 
h Britton. c. 48. Statham. Fitzherbert, Brock, Thelwel, Ash Title, Brief, Abatement de Brief & Error.  all our Law-Books assert; So the Writs of Summons to Parliaments and Great Councils are the very foundations, and corner-stones whereon our Parliaments, Great Councils, and all their Votes, Judgements, Proceedings, Acts, Ordinances do depend. Therefore if they be defective, erroneous, invalid, illegal, insufficient, or null in themselves, the Parliaments and Great Councils convened by, founded on them, with all their judgements, Proceedings, Acts, Ordinances, must of necessity be so likewise, as the Statutes of 1. Hen. 4. c. 3. 21. R. 2. c. 1. 39 8. H. 6. c. 1. H. 8. c. 1. 17. E. 4. 5. 7. 1. H. 4. rot. Parl. n. 1. 66. 1. E. 4. rot. Parl. n. 8: to 17. 1. H. 7. c. 9 27. H. 8. c. 24. in England, largely evidence, and the Statute of 10. H. 7. c. 27. in Ireland, determines; repealing a Parliament holden at Drogheda before Sir Robert Preston, decreed and deemed void to all Intents, by the King's Council in Ireland.  
1. Because the Duke of Bedford, Lieutenant of Ireland, (by whose Deputy it was summoned and held) surrendered his Patent of Lieutenancy before the said Parliament summoned.  
2. Because there was no general summons of the said Parliament, to all the Shires, but only to four Shires.  
3. Because the said Deputy had no m●nner of Power by his Commission to summon or keep a Parliament: For the which causes it was ordained and enacted, that the Parliament to holden be deemed void, and of none effect, by the whole Parliament of Ireland, Anno 10. H. 7. And the Parliament of 18. E. 4. ch. 2. in Ireland, touching the Election of Knights and B●rgesses, further manifests it.  
6. That the summoning (as likewise pro●●guing, adjourning, dissolving) of all Parliaments and Great Councils in England and Ireland, is a peculiar inseparable royal Prerogative, belonging only to the Kings of England, and incommunicable to any other person or persons, yea to Parliaments themselves, which cannot appoint a succeeding Parliament to be called but by the King's consent, and that (though appointed to be held at a prefixed day and place) to be 
i Here p. ●3.  summoned only by the King's Writ. That all Writs of Summons and Prorogation always issued, and of right aught to be issued only in the King's name, stile, authority, whether absent out of, or present within the Realm, whether within age, or of ripe years, and that by his special Commands alone, or his and his Councils joint precept, as the stile, name, contents of all precedent and subsequent Writs; the subscriptions under them, Per ipsum Regem, per ipsum Regem & Consilium, per ipsum Regem, Custodem & Consilium (in the King's absence) per breve de privato sigi●●o, etc. the stile, tenor of all Writs, De expensis Militum & Burgen sium, the Statutes of 5. R. 2. Parl. 2. c. 4. 7. H. 4. c. 14. 6. H. 6. c. 4. 23. H. 6. c. 11. 27. H. 8. c. 24. 31.

Caroli, for preventing of inconveniences happening by the long intermission of Parliaments, Cooks 4. Institutes, ch. 1. and all who have written of our English Parliaments, abundantly evidence and resolve beyond contradiction. Hence our late 
k See Mr. Rushworth his Historical Collections, p. 4 10, etc.  King Charles, in his Declaration of the causes of assembling and dissolving the two last Parliaments, june 13. 2. Caroli, affirms, That the calling, adjourning, proroguing, and dissolving of Parliaments, do peculiarly belong unto himself by an undoubted Prerogative inseparably uniied to his impertal Crown, and the Statute of 16. Caroli. c. 1. made by the unanimous consent of both Houses declares, That by the Laws and Statutes of this Realm, the appointment of the time and place for the holding of Parliaments, and the summoning of them (by Writ in the King's Name) hath always belonged, as it ought, to his Majesty, and his royal Progenitors, and none else.  
7. That the Kings of England, have as true, full, real and legal an haereditary right, Title, Interest, Propriety in and to the Parliament, as they have in and to the Kingdom and Crown of England, as these Clauses in all their Writs of Summons, Prorogations of Parliaments, issued to the spiritual and temporal Lords, King's Council, Sheriffs, and Warden of the Cinque-ports resolve; Ordinavimus quoddam Parliamentum nostrum, etc. tenere: In ultimo Parliamento nostro post ultimum Parliamentum nostrum, sitis ad nos ad Parliamentum nostrum,; and the like; compared with Statum Regni nostri Angliae: Et cum Praelatis & Proceribus Regni nostris sicut commodum Regni nostri Diligitis: jura Coronae nostrae, etc. in the same Writs: The Writs de expensi: Militum & Burgensium; The Titles and Prologues of most printed Acts of Parliament: The Statutes of 8. H. 6. c. 7. 23. H. 6. c. 11. 23. H. 8. c. ●3. 27. H. 8. c. 24. 31.

l Seldens Titles of Honour. p 663, 665, 747, 748, 751, 757, 764, etc.  his Patents for creating Dukes, Marquesses, Earls, Peers and Barons of the Realm, granting them and their Heirs males, Sedem & locum in Parliamentis nostris, Haeredum & successorum nostrorum in●ra Regnum nostrum Angliae. Therefore the Parliaments of England can no more exist or subsist without the King, than the Kingdom or Crown of England, the King being both Caput, Principium & finis Parliamenti, as Modus tenendi Parliamentum, 
m 4 Inst p. 3.  Sir Edward Cook and others resolve, our Parliaments living and dying with our Kings, and determining when summoned and sitting by the King's decease (since they can neither treat nor confer with him of any businesses concerning him or his Kingdom, nor be his Parliament after his death) as the Parliaments of 1.

It is observable, that none of these Custodes Regni, or Protectors, had any power given them to summon or hold Parliaments in their own Names, or by their own inherent Authority as Protectors; nor to create new Peers or Barons of the Realm, by Writs or Patents, for aught I find, the very words of their Patents, and the

The Prologues of all ancient Parliaments, and the very words of the Oaths of Supremacy and Allegiance, (prescribed to all Members of the Common House, Judges, Justices, Officers, Barristers, Attorneys, Sheriffs, Graduates, Ministers and Schoolmasters by our Parliaments) abundantly evidence;) The King of England alone (not the Custos Regni, Protector, nor any other person whatsoever, nor the Pope himself) to be the only Supreme Governor, Head, Magistrate of the Realm of England, and the Dominions thereunto annexed, and that in and over all spiritual and ecclesiastical persons, things, causes, as well as temporal, without recognising any other Sovereign Lord, Governor, Magistrate, for aught I find in History or Record.  
10. That the causes of summoning and proroging all Parliaments ought to be generally or particularly expressed in the Writs of Summons and Prorogation, together with the precise days whereon, and places wherein they are to meet upon the Summons or Prorogation; that so all may know certainly at what time and place to meet. That the days and places of their meeting and prorogation, were absolutely in the power of our Kings, who varied them according to emergent occasions, and the places of their necessary residence. For instance; When the wars or affairs of Scotland drew our Kings and Nobles towards the Northern parts, they usually summoned or prorogued their Parliaments to York, Karlisle, Newcastle, Stanford, Lincoln, Leycester, Northampton, Cambridge, Stainford, Conventry, Nottingham. When the wars and businesses of France called them towards the South, they frequently summoned their Parliaments, to Winton, Salisbury, Southampton, Canterbury. When the wars or negotiations of Wales or Ireland occasioned their removal towards them, they convened their Parliaments at Gloucester, Worcester, Salop, Hereford, Bristol, Oxford, or Malborough. But most usually they were summoned and prorogued to Westminster or London, as the centre and Metropolis of the Realm, and the most indifferent and convenient place of meeting, as the Writs of Summons and Prorogation attest.  
11. That for the most part all Writs of Summons and Prorogation both to the spiritual and temporal Lords, King's Council, Sheriffs of Counties, and Wardens of the Cinque-ports, have the selfsame Teste, date, Prologues; yet now and then some of them, are different in their dates, yet very rarely in their recitals. That there is frequently a different space of days and times between the dates of the Writs of Summons and Resummons upon Writs of Prorogation, and the days of the first meeting of the Parliaments, and Great Councils to which they are summoned and elected, as you may easily discern by comparing them; there being sometimes two months' space or more, sometimes fifty days, but usually forty days, or more (according to the Charter of King john) between the date of the Writs and days of appearance in Parliaments, and Grand Councils. Yet in cases of extreme necessity, upon sudden unexpected dangers, I find two Parliaments summoned to meet within the space of forty days; as in 
s Hen. p. 31.  Claus. 4 E. 3. d. 19 Where there was only two and thirty days between the date of the Writ and Parliament, which being unusual, there is an express clause in the Writs, that it should not be drawn into consequence for the future: So in 28 Eliz. the Writ bore date the 15th. of September, and the Parliament was to begin the 15th. of October following, but thirty days after. All other Writs (to my best remembrance) these two excepted, having at least forty days between the Teste, and days of appearance, that so the Members might have competent time to prepare themselves to repair to Parliaments and Great Councils after their Summons and Elections.  
12. That in ancient times our Parliaments and Great Councils were more frequently summoned to meet and 
i See p, 7, 10, 11, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 24, 27, 30, 63, 64, 162, 164, 168, 169, 171. 343, 348, etc.  appear on the Lord's Day, than on any other day of the week; which abuse in succeeding times was reform and quite discontinued even in times of Popery, as well as since the reformation of Religion.  
13. That our Kings upon extraordinary public dangers, and other occasions, may summon Parliaments, Great Councils, Convocations as often as they think meet: That they were anciently summoned once or twice every year at least (and some times thrice, four or five times in one year) according to the ancient Constitution in the.

14. That the more weighty, difficult, pressing, urgent the occasions and dangers were of summoning Parliaments the 
y See p. 13, 14, 19, 21, 27, 28, 44, 177.  more importunate, vehement, urgent, mandatory, minatory, and compulsary, were the expressions, mandates, clauses in the Writs of Summons for the Lords and Commons personal appearance and attendance, without admitting any excuses, or procurations, and not to depart from them without special licence.  
15. That when any public weighty businesses intended to be propounded, dispatched in one Parliament or Great Council, by reason of other businesses, or shortness of time, could not be propounded or concluded, therein; thereupon 
z See p. 27, 28, 29, 32, 41, 43, 177.  another Parliament or Council was soon after called to dispatch it, the day and place whereof was sometimes appointed in and by the Parliament next preceding before its dissolution.  
16. That though anciently before the word Parliamentum came in use among our Ancestors, Great Councils were the same in substance with Parliaments; yet since the summoning of Knights, Citizens, Bu●gesses and Barons of the Ports to Parliaments, and the insertion of Parliamentum, into the Writs of Summons and Statutes, you may observe some differences 
a See p. 19, 20, ●4, 30, 38, 39, 40, 4●, 48, 52, 57, 62, 63, 174, 187, to 192.  between Parliaments and Councils, and the Writs of Summons to them, which are frequently distinguished in the margin of the Clause Rolls; by this different entry; Summunitio Parliamenti, De veniendo ad Parliamentum, etc. & Summonitio Concllil, de veniendo ad Concilium, etc. The principal differences between them are these.  
1. That many Bishops, Abbots and Nobles are usually omitted in the Summons to Councils, which were usually summoned to Parliaments, and seldom omitted in the summons to them, unless absent in foreign parts.  
2. That many persons were summoned to Councils, which we never find summoned to Parliaments.  
3. That there is no Clause of Praemunientes in the Writs of Summons to Councils issued to Archbishops, and Bishops, to summon their Chapters, Deans, Archdeacon's, and Clergy of their Diocese; as there is usually in their Writs of Summons to Parliaments.  
4. That Writs of Summons to Councils, issued to the Lords & Great men are seldom accompanied with any Writs of Election for Knights, Citizens, Burgesses and Barons of Ports issued to Sheriffs, or the Warden of the Cinqueports; as Writs of Summons to Parliaments are; and if any Knights, Citizens or Burgesses be summoned to them, it is in a different manner and number, than when they were summoned to Parliaments.  
5. Writs of Summons to Parliaments are usually accompanied with Writs of Summons to the King's Counsils, but those to Councils are never attended with such Writs, distinct from those issued to the spiritual and temporal Lords, as Writs of Summons to Parliaments are. Which differences some injudicious Writers and Antiquaries not observing; have both confounded those Writs together as one, and mistaken one of them frequently for the other.  
17. That the principal end,

Nor no men's Rights precluded or forejudged in Parliament by any general Act, before they be heard. Nor the Clergy taxed by the Lords and Commons, but only by themselves in their convocations.  
19 That the Writs of Summons to Parliaments enjoining all the temporal Earls, Peers, Lords, and Barons of the Realm, and commanding them upon and in the Love, Faith, Homage, Allegiance they owe unto the King, to appear in proper person in their Parliaments, and that with a Quanunque excusation● cessant●; 〈◊〉 & salvationem Regni nostri & Ecclesiae Anglicanae & expeditionem dictorum negotiorum diligitis, Nullatenus omittatis, etc. as the Writs enjoin them.

If our Kings had then so great a care, that neither of these two Prelates, nor their successors, nor any other of his officers or subjects by their instigation, should interrupt or disturb each other about this great controversy of Crosse-bearing within each others Province, in coming to, residing at, or returning to any Parliaments to which our Kings and their heirs should legally summon them; nor seclude each other from sitting in them upon any pretence or difference between them; Then by the self same reason, all other lawful Members both of the Lords and Commons House, aught to enjoy the self same Protection, Privilege, Freedom, immunity, and no ways to be interrupted, molested, disturbed by any other Officers, Subjects, Persons or Members whatsoever from freely repairing to, residing in, or returning from our Parliaments; much less to be forcibly secluded out of them by armed guards, new oaths, or popular tumults; Neither may, can, ought the House of Commons alone, nor any prevailing party in it, to exclude, eject any duly elected, returned Member, once admitted, without any Legal accusation, trial, cause at all; nor yet for betraying of his trust, or misdemeaning himself as a Member after his election, nor for any real offence as a Member, without and against the Kings and Lords concurrent Judgements and assents, (in whom alone the power of judicature resides in such as well as in all other causes, as I have

20. That if the forcible seclusion or disturbance of any Lord, or Member of the Lords House duly summoned, who ought of right to sit, vote in the Lord's House, be so great a breach of Privilege, Injury, as I have evidenced, than the forcible suppression, seclusion of all the ancient Peers and House of Lords, by any real or pretended Members of the late House of Commons, contrary to the express Clauses, Forms of all ancient Writs, and the very writs in 16. Caroli, without any legal jurisdiction, hearing, trial, must needs be a greater breach of trust, Privilege, Injustice in them, fit to be redressed for the future peace, Justice, settlement of our distracted Nations, and restoring our Parliaments to their pristine Splendour, Honour, ends, uses, for the redressing of all public Grievances.  
If any Republicans, 
Objection.  Army Officers, New Grandees, or others, here object, as some now do; That it will be both perilous and inconvenient to the Subjects, the House of Commons and its Members, to restore the ancient Lords and House of Peers to their pristine Rights, Privileges, Jurisdiction, Judicature over them, in that latitude I have asserted, evidenced it by Histories and Records in my Plea for them, without prescribing some new just bounds and regulations unto them by the Commons House.  
I answer. 
Answer.  1. That the Lords being the only original ancient Members of our Great Councils, Parliaments, many hundreds of years before any Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, or House of Commons were called, admitted to them by the King and House of Lords, and receiving no power, Judicature or Jurisdiction at all from the Commons, but what they have of right enjoyed, exercised in all precedent ages, without the least complaint, opposition or contradiction of the Commons in any former Parliaments before 17. Caroli; The Commons have no more authority, right, reason, ●urisdiction to limit, or restrain this their ancient right, Judicature, Privilege (much less to abrogate) than the Grand or Petty Jury have to limit, regulate the Judges or Justice's Commissions, Authority on the Bench; or the Tenants the Jurisdiction of their Lords Courts, or every Committee of the Commons House, the Excesses of the House itself; or the Unparliamentary juncto, which voted them down and engaged against them, without the least colour of Jurisdiction, Law, reason, hearing, impeachment, trial, had to usurp such a transcendent power over them, not to be paralelld in any age, nor now approved by assenting to it.  
2ly. That the old Lords and House of Peers in no cases ever exercised such an exorbitant, arbitrary, tyrannical Jurisdiction, Illegal power in all kinds, as the Commons House, and every of their Committees and Sub-Committees of Examinations, Sequestrations, Compositions, Sale of Delinquents estates, Crown Lands, Obstructions, Appeals, Scandalous Ministers, and High Courts of justice have done, without the least Report to the House itself of their proceedings, both over the King and his Posterity; the Peers of the Realm, their fellow Members, (secluded, secured, imprisoned, close imprisoned, ejected, exiled by them without any cause or hearing at all) and their fellow Commoners of all sorts 
* Exact Collection, p. 321.  deprived of their Inheritances, Estates, Offices, Liberties, Callings, Lives, and the benefit of the Laws themselves, for not taking their new Oaths and Engagements, contrary to Law, and their former legal Oaths, Leagues and Solemn Covenant and Protestation, w●●hout a legal Indictment, or trial by a Jury of their equals, or witnesses viva voce upon Oath, since their slighting, suppressing of the old House of Lords; who should have restrained, reform these their unparallelld extravagancies, which I could prove by hundreds of sad Instances, and have briefly hinted in my ●lea for the old Lords, page 413. to 419. For which very reason they ought now to be restored; 
* Exact Collection, p. 321.  being an excellent Bank and Screen between the Prince and People, to assist each against any encroachments on the other, and by just judgements to preserve that Law, which ought to be the Rule between every one of the three, and trusted with a judicatory power to this very end.  
3ly. Some of those very Members of the late Commons House, Army, and Whitehall, who would disseise them of their House, Privileges, Birthrights, and ancient jurisdiction, before they took upon them the Title of Lords, or of the House of Lords, as pretended Members of the Commons House, a little before and since their votes against the old House of Lords; as Committees of that House; or Commissioners in their new erected High Courts of justice, Members of the Council of State at White-Hall, or Council of Army-Officers; or Major Generals, and Deputy Major Generals, have acted a thousand, times more exorbitantly, arbitrarily, tyrannically to the subversion of the Fundamental Laws, Liberties, properties, Government, Justice of the Nation, oppressing, improverishing, vexing, dishinheriting, destroying, enslaving of the Freemen of England, than ever any old Lords, or House of Lords, or Kings of England in Parliament heretofore did in any age whatsoever; Witness their usurpations of a more than absolute Parliamentary power to themselves, by their own Votes, Order, Declarations alone, to alter, new model (over and over) the whole frame of our Parliaments, Laws, and public Government; their electing Knights, Citizens, Burgesses for what they styled a Parliament, without the least privity or election of the people; their dissolving, & declaring the long Parliament to be dissolved, against an express Act of Parliament; their repealing many old Laws, Acts, Oaths, enacting new Laws contrary to them; creating New Treasons and misprision of Treasons; yea imposing heavy, excessive New Taxes, Customs, 
* See their Whitehall Ordinance of 24. Decemb. 17. March 1653. and May 4. june 8. 1654. The first part of my Seasonable Legal, Historical Vindication.

Excises of all sorts, on the three Nations, not only in their private Westminster conventions, but by their Army and Whitehall Ordinances (amounting to a large Folio Volume) without any Parliament or legal Act of Parliament; ordering them to be levied, by fines, forfeitures, sales of the refusers real and personal estates, imprisonments, soldiers quartering, and the like; Injoysing All Courts of justice, judges, justices, Sheriffs, Officers of this Commonwealth, Counsellors, Attorneys, and other Persons, to conform themselves accordingly without any opposition or dispute whatsoever; and committing their very Counsel to the Tower as Traitors or Grand Delinquents, only for arguing their Cases upon an Habeas Corpus in Westminster Hall, according to Law and their Duties; Their taking away the lives, liberties or estates, freeholds of thousands, without any legal Trial, or Indictment of their Peers; their banishing, confining, imprisoning, close imprisoning hundreds, yea thousands at a time, upon mere fears and jealousies; and binding them and all their servants in excessive bonds with sureties; their disfranchising Majors, Bailiffs, Aldermen, others in corporations; enforcing divers to release their legal actions, Judgements, Executions, and committing them at their pleasures till they did it, against the express tenor not only of the Grand Charter, Petition of Right, and other. Acts, but the very letter of the late Act; For preventing of Inconveniences, happening by the long intermission of Parliaments, The Acts for the 3. first subsidies of Tonnage and Poundage; The Act for regulating the Privy Counsel, For declaring unlawful and void the late proceedings touching Shipmoney, and other Acts passed by some of their own Votes, in the Parliament of 16. and 17. Caroli, of which, or the like exorbitances, no ancient Peers, or House of Lords, were ever yet guilty. And if some of those persons who would usurp, or abridge the old Lords power have been so arbitrary & tyrannical in all kinds, before they claimed the Title of Lords, or House of Lords, how exorbitant, in all probability, are they likely to grow in a short time, (having Command in the Army, and other Courts) if they should be established in their new Lordly Power, and the old House of Lords put by, who should correct, restrain these their unparalleled Excesses for the whole Nations ease and benefit.  
4. If these new Peers, be in truth, Law, Heraldry, no true or real Lords, Barons, Peers of the Realm by their Writs of Summons, for the premised reasons (but 
* See p. 240.  merely imaginary, Titular and false ones, like those created by the usurpers' King Stephen;) then the House of Commons can neither in Law nor verity agree or assent to any thing that shall be ordained by them, according to the tenor of the Writs of Summons; nor establish any settlement that can be reputed legal or obligatory to Posterity, in a Parliamentary Way, if the ancient real Peers and legal House of Lords be set aside and disowned. And therefore they must of necessity own, close with them alone, and remit them to their old hereditary right, else they can never make nor expect any real lasting settlement of our distracted State and Government; and all they vote will quickly prove abortive, illegitimate; as the late New-models, Instruments, and Advices have done.

The setting aside the ancient Lords and House of Peers, and establishing their very Disseisors in their places, as the only future Lords and House of Peers: will both justify all their recited Exorbitances, Excesses, Violences, & Tyrannical proceedings against the old Lords, their Fellow Commons, & others, (transcending strafford's, Caterburies' and the worst old Counsel-Table Lords excesses by many degrees) & ratify, yea reward, crown them with the highest public Honour, Trust, Power they are capable of, even in Parliaments themselves. Which will not only probably excite, encourage others in succeeding times, to the like dangerous extravagancies, excesses, to the public prejudice and desolation; but animate them, when settled in their new Lordly Authority, to pursue their former practices, and turn greater Tyrants, Oppressors in all kinds then formerly they have been, to the utter enslaving of our Nations, and embroiling them in new Tumults. Yea, how far it may tend to the Total and Final suppression of the Commons House itself in succeeding times, is worthy sad and serious consideration. For if the Commons House shall not only silently connive at, but openly approve and assent to the dissolving, suppressing of the old Lords and their House, by pretext of former illegal, unrighteous Votes (

H. 3. when (for aught appears) the Commons were first admitted, and called unto Parliaments out of mere grace by the King's Writs: Or at least the disinherited ancient Nobility (in case they regain their pristine Rights of Session, Judicature in Parliament, without the Commons assistance, of which there is no absolute future improbability) may by way of Justice and retaliation, set the Commons House quite aside, for their late transcendent breaches, abuses of their Trusts towards them, in secluding, and voting them quite down, against their Writs, Indentures, Duties, Oaths; by which they have legally forfeited all their Privileges and right of Parliamentary session, according to this received Maxim in all Laws,

Which weighty consideration (though seconded with none else) should engage all Commoners to pursue the golden rule, precept of Christ himself, as well in point of prudence, conscience, Justice, as morality towards the old Lords: Matth. 7. 12.

21. That the first and principle things specified in the Writs of summons, as the prime ends for which Parliaments are summoned, is to debate and consult of quaedam specialia & ardua negotia Nos, et Statum regni nostri, et etiam jura, Salvationem, et Defensionem Coronae nostrae Regiae (as well as Regni nostri et Ecclesie Anglicanae) specialiter & intime contingentib●s. And all Knights, Citizens, Burgesses, Barons of Ports elected, returned to serve in Parliament in the Commons House, receive plenam & sufficientem potestatem pro se, et Communitate Comitatuum, Civitatum, Burgorum et Portuum, from those Commonalties who elect them, only ad faciendum & consentiendum his quae tunc ibidem de communi Consilio Comitum, Baronum, or dicti Regni nostri contigerit ordinari super Negotiis antedictis, quod hoc breve, or, prout breve illud in se exigit & requirit; as the express words of the

Committees, High Courts of justice, Counsils of State, Major Generals, Excise-men, and other Officers have done; since their late Exorbitant Anti-parliamentary Usurpations, Innovations, Proceedings, under the disguise and Notion of the Parliament of England, without A KING, & HOUSE OF LORDS, or the secluded majority OF THE COMMONS HOUSE itself; the forced absence, seclusion of all and every of which 3. made them no real Parliament at all, but an Anti-Parliamentary Conventicle, and all their mi●intitled Acts, Ordinances, mere Nullities both in Law and Conscience, fit to be eternally exploded by the whole English Nation, and all future new Parliaments, to prevent the like pernicious Extravagances in after ages, which have involved us in so many various Miseries, Wars, Perplexities, Fears, Dangers, Oppressions, Factions, Troubles, Changes, Unsettlements, and Confusions, which, without God's infinite mercy, presage nought else but total and final Desolation both to our Church, State, and Nations.

* Dyer, f. 60. a. Cooks 4 Instit. p. 1. 3.  Law-books resolve the Parliament to be a Corporation, consisting of the King as thief head, the Lords as the Superior, and the Commons as inferior Members, who ought mutually to preserve each others interests, and unite their counsels for the public good, without any seizure or encroachment upon one another. For as there is nothing but giddiness, torture, distemper, consumption, restlessness, sickness, inactivity, maimedness, & confusion in the body natural, whiles the head, or chief joints, bones, parts of it are inverted, dislocated, fractured, severed, and kept out of joint; and no other means left when thus distorted, to restore it to rest, health, soundness, activity, and prevent its dissolution by death, but with all speed and cate to restore every Member, bone, joint to its proper place, posture, office, and preserve them from subsequent dislocations and fractures. So it hath been and will be with this body Politic: It will never be reduced to its pristine health, soundness, vigour, use, ends; or become medicinal, to settle or advance the public weal of the Nation, till all its dislocated broken Members be restored to their due places and power in it, without which it will soon come to utter desolation, as 1. Cor. 12. 12, to 31. Gal. 5. 15. Mat. 12. 25. Isa 19 2. 14, 15. Prov. 30. 21. 22, will assure all carnal Politicians who think the contrary,
