❧ By the Queen. THE Queen's Majesty being given to understand, that chief through the disorderly trafficking of such her merchants as trade into France for wines, the said wines are of late years grown to that excessive price, as for the furnishing of the Realm of the same, there is yearly consumed a greater portion of treasure, then in any times before hath been, to the great impoverishing of this her Realm: Hath therefore (seeing the great inconvenience that is like to increase and ensue thereof, if in time there be not some speedy redress of the same,) by the advise of her majesties Counsel, thought meet to declare to all manner of persons that shall use the trade of the bringing in of the said wines into this Realm, that they forbear to bring into any part of this Realm the said wines, unless they may utter and afford the same after the rate of ten pounds the Tun, with all manner ordinary charges, upon pain of imprisonment. And that any person that shall buy any the said wine above the said rate, shall in respect of his contempt, suffer imprisonment during her majesties pleasure, and forfeit the said wine. Given at Kyllyngworth the xu day of july. 1575. the xvii. year of her majesties reign. God save the Queen. ❧ Imprinted at London by Newgate Market next unto Christ's Church, by Richard jug, Printer to the Queen's Majesty. Cum privilegio Regiae Maiestatis.
