A Statute against drunkenness, Viz. 4. Jacobus 5. The penalty of a Drunkard, &c.  
WHereas the loathsome and odious Sin of drunkenness is of late grown into common use within this Realm, being the Root and Foundation of many other enormous Sins, as Bloodshed, Stabbing, Murder, Swearing, Fornication, Adultery, and such like; to the great dishonour of God, and of our Nation; the overthrow of many good Arts and manual Trades; the disabling of divers workmen; and the general Impoverishing of many good Subjects, abusively wasting the good Creatures of God:  
Be it therefore enacted by the Kings most Excellent majesty, the Lords and Commons in this present Parliament Assembled, and by the Authority of the same, That all and every person or persons, which shall be Drunk, and of the same offence of drunkenness shall be lawfully convicted, shall for every such offence, forfeit, and lose five shillings of lawfully Money of England, to be paid within one week next after his, her, or their conviction thereof, to the hands of the churchwardens of that Parish, where the offence shall be committed, who shall be accountable therefore to the use of the poor of the same Parish: And if the said person or persons so convicted, shall refuse, or neglect to pay the said forfeiture, as aforesaid, than the same shall be from time to time, levied of the Goods of every such person or persons so refusing or neglecting to pay the same, by Warrant or Precept from the same Court, Judge or Justices, before whom the same conviction shall be: And if the offender or offenders be not able to pay the said sum of five shillings, than the offender or offenders shall be committed to the Stocks for every offence, there to remain by the space of six hours.  
And it is further enacted by the Authority aforesaid, That if any person or persons, being once lawfully convicted of the said offence of drunkenness, shall after that be again lawfully convicted of the like offence of drunkenness; That then every person and persons so secondly convicted of the said offence of drunkenness, shall be bounden with two sureties to our sovereign Lord the King's majesty, His Heirs, and Successors, in one Recognisance or Obligation of ten pounds, with condition to be from thence forth of good behaviour.
