tunc de Communi Consilio ipsius Regni nostri Angliae, (Divinâ faven∣te clementiâ) contigerit ordinari. Nec mirantes ex hoc, quod Stilum * 1.2 nostrum consuetum mutavimus, & Regem Franciae nos facimus no∣minari; nam diversae subsunt causae per quas hoc facere necessario nos oportet, & quas vobis & aliis Praelatis, Magnatibus, necnon Com∣munitatibus ejusdem Regni nostri Angliae, ad dictum Parliamentum plenius exponemus. Scientes insuper, quod nolumus, nec intentionis nostrae existit, quod ex assumptione nominis & honoris eorundem, dicto Regno ac terrae Anglicanae, aut statum, seu juribus eorundem praejudicetur, aut aliqualiter derogetur; sed quod eidem Regno uberius subveniatur & relevetur, maturius illud idem, & pro securitate in hac parte, ad dictum Parliamentum, si opus fuerit, ordinavimus, quod jux∣ta Consilium vestrum, & aliorum Praelatorum, Magnatum, caetero∣rúmque ibidem convocatorum viderimus oportunum. Teste meipso apud Herewich xxj. die Februarij, Anno Regni nostri Angliae decimo quarto, Regni verò Franciae primo.

Per ipsum Regem.
