If the heire refuse a convenient marriage, he shall pay to the Lord the value, when he cometh to full age.

If the Ward marrie against the will of the Guardian, he shall pay him the double value of his Marriage; but if the heire be of the full age aforesaid, he shall pay a relief.

A relief for a whole Knights Fee, is 5l for half a Knights Fee 50s. for a quarter 25, for more, more; for less, less, accordingly.

A Relief is no service, but is incident to a Service, the Guardian must not commit Waste, viz. Chattels.
