REX Episcopis London. & Lincoln. salutem. Olim Archiepisc. Cantuar. vacante* 1.1 & nobis custodiam ipsius habentibus, Willielmum de Plessetis dilectum Clericum ratione vacationis ejusdem ad Ecclesiam de Eneford tunc vacantem, duximus praesentan∣dum. Cui instituto ad nostram praesentationem in illa Magister Robertus de Glouc. se ppenens, asseruit, sibi per Abbatem de Boxleya auctoritate Literarum Domini Papae eodem tempore fuisse provisum in eadem Ecclesia: (the Popes new Provision being preferred before the Kings old Royal Jurisdiction.) Super quo inter ipsos postmodum lis est orta, quam Dominus Papa terminare volens, causam ipsam ad suum revocavit examen. In qua contra eandem Willielmum post multas altercationes habitas, quarum seriem praesentibus longum foret inserere, diffinitivam tulit sententiam, Iure nostro in judi∣cium non deducto: Mandans vobis, ut amoto quolibet detentore, praefatum Magistrum in ipsius Ecclesiae possessionem corporalem mittatis, ut dicitur, non sine nostrae dignitatis praejudicio manifesto. Cum enim ex approbata consuetudine et antiqua, debeamus ad hujusmodi Ecclesias vacantibus sedibus praesentare, patenter advertitur, quod si praemissa sententia speratum sortiretur effectum, contingeret eun∣dem Clericum nostrum Ecclesia memorata destitui, et Ius nostrum quod in ipsa praesentatione habuimus, et in consimilibus praesenta∣tionibus habere debemus, per consequens enervari, sic que proculdu∣bio nostrae aederetur Coronae dignitas, et nostra gravis ac enormis exhaeredatio sequeretur. Verum discriminis tanti periculo volentes occurrere, sollempnem Nuncium cum Literis nostris ad Apostoli∣cam sedem transmisimus, quibus Domino Papae factum et Ius nostrum in praemisso negotio referamus. Quapropter vobis, quo∣rum est Iura nostra tueri, prohibemus districte in virtute Iuramen∣ti fidelitatis, quo nobis estis astricti, firmiter injungentes, ne super Ecclesia praefata aliquid attemptetis vel exequamini contra nos, aut nostrum Clericum supradictum: Scituri quod si secus egeritis, con∣tra vos super Baroniis vestris, juxta quod decet Majestatem Regi∣am, procedamus.

The Canons of York being by the Popes authority questioned in the Spiritual Court by the Abbot of St. Genovefe and his Covents, for the sale of the Mannor of Brumford within the Realm, when as Spiritual Courts ought not to hold Plea of any Lands or Chattels, but only of Matrimony, Testament, and Tythes; the King thereupon issued this Prohibition and Supersedeas to them.
