KING HENRY VI.'S STATUTE a.d: 



H3 2 - 

 Denmarke against ye ordinance, prohibition & inter- 

 diction of ye same his Uncle above remembred, & in 

 contempt of the same, upon paine of forfeiture of all 

 their moveable goods & imprisonment of their persons 

 at the kings will. 



Another branch of a statute made in the tenth 

 yeere of the reigne of Henry the sixt con- 

 cerning the state of the English Marchants 

 in the dominions of the king of Denmarke. 



I Tern because that our soveraigne Lord the king at 

 the grievous complaint to him made in this Parlia- 

 ment by the commons of his realme of England being 

 in this Parliament is informed, that many of his faith- 

 full liege people be greatly impoverished, undone, & 

 in point to be destroyed by the king of Denmarke & his 

 lieges, which be of the amitie of the king our soveraigne 

 Lord, because that they do daily take of his said faithful 

 subjects their goods, so that they have taken of mar- 

 chants of York and Kingston upon Hul goods & 

 marchandises to the valour of v.M.li. within a yeere, 

 and of other lieges & marchants of ye Realme of 

 England goods & cattals to the valour of xx.M.li. 

 wherof they have no remedie of the said king of 

 Denmarke, nor of none other, forasmuch as none of 

 them commeth within the Realme of England, nor 

 nothing have in the same Realme of England, & 

 that ye goods be taken out of the same Realme : The 

 king willing to provide remedy for his said liege people, 

 hath ordeined & established, that if ye goods of any 

 of ye said his lieges be or shalbe taken by the said 

 king of Denmarke or any of his said lieges, the keeper 

 of the privie seale for ye time being, shall have power 

 to make to ye partie grieved letters of request under 

 the privie seale, w l out any other pursuite to be made 

 to any for restitution to be had of ye goods so taken 

 & to be taken. And if restitution be not made by [I. 187.]
