Ecclesiastical Laws are the Kings Laws, though Processe be not in the Kings Name.

Now, albeit the proceedings and Processe of the Ecclesiastical Courts be in the Name of the Bishops, &c. it followeth not there∣fore, that either the Court is not the Kings, or the Law, whereby they proceed, is not the King's Law. For taking one example for many, every Leet or View of Frank∣pledge holden by a Subject is kept in the Lords Name, and yet it is the Kings Court, and all the proceedings therein are directed by the Kings Laws.
