Some additions to the names already given will 

 be found in the following lines, transcribed from 

 a scarce book entitled The Mobiad ; or Battle of 

 the Voice (being a satirical account of an Exeter 

 election), by Andrew Brice of Exeter, 1770 : — 



". . Convene a Chapter of those Saints who bear 

 O'er Trades and Traders tutelary care. . . 

 St. Blaise, who — (if Monks neither fib nor doat) — 

 Invok'd, whip! presto! heals a squinzy'd Throat, 

 Though with his Flesh in bleeding Tatters rent, 

 Might come th' endanger'd Combers President. 

 To save her Coopers from a mortal quarrel 

 Might interpose St. Mary of the Barrel. 

 To just St. Joseph ought our Muse refer, 

 The tugging Joiner and the Carpenter. 

 Bricklayers should St. Gregory obtain ; 

 The Grace of St. Eloi shou'd Goldsmiths gain. 

 St. Ann should Grooms assist, though none invoke ; 

 Ev'n Butchers claim St. Mauy of the Oak ; 

 St. James to Hatters might his goodness grant. 

 Upholsters, sav'd from Fall, might praise Venant. 

 St. Lb'habd should no Stone-cutter forsake, 

 Nor Mary of Loretto those who Bake. 

 For Taylors the beheaded Saint had stood, 

 Who duck'd Kepentants in Old Jordan's Flood. 

 St. CBISPtN might his Gentlecraft relieve; 

 St. EuBTACE aid to Innholders shou'd give; 

 The 1'lea'd Apostle with his knife might side ) 

 The broil'd St. Laurence Safety to provide > 

 For Curriers and tough Tanners of the Hide; J 

 The last-named Saint might in like Wardship hug 

 Those who ajtply or vend th' aperient Drug: 

 Nor leave of Aid the Woollen-drapers bare, 

 Nor who at Wholesale deal in Staple Waro. 



The swarthy Artists sweating at the Forge 

 Should draw, unasking, to their Help, St. George; 

 Carmen St. Vincent have a Guardian Saint ; 

 Savior keep Sad/ers.safe ; Luke those who paint. 

 Nay Job perhaps for some had present been 

 Who've done lewd Worship to the Cyprean Queen, 

 Since divers might, on Scrutiny, be found 

 With aking Bones who hoarsly snuffle Sound! 

 These, and the rest, whom canonizing Rome 

 Appoints o'er Craftsmen might in Vision come."

BISHOPS ELECT. 

 (2 nd S. viii. 431. ; ix. 55.) 



Great discussion has at all times taken place as 

 to the nature of a bishop's right to a seat in Par- 

 liament. A satisfactory conclusion will best be 

 arrived at by a short consideration of a bishop's 

 position as regards temporalities both before and 

 since the Conquest. During the reigns of the 

 Saxon kings, bishops held their lands in frank 

 almaign, and were free from all services and pay- 

 ments, excepting only the obligation to build and 

 repair castles and bridges (and as it should have 

 been added, to contribute towards the expences of 

 expeditions). William I., however, deprived them 

 of this exemption, and instead thereof turned 

 their possessions into baronies, so that they held 

 them per baroniam, and this made them subject to 

 the tenures and duties of knights' service. 



The bishops as such were members of the 

 Mycel-synod or Witena-gemot. Another argu- 

 ment in favour of their spiritual capacity in Par- 

 liament is, that from the reign of Edw. I. to that 

 of Edw. IV. inclusive, great numbers of writs to 

 attend the Parliament were sent to the "guar- 

 dians of the spiritualities " during the vacancies of 

 bishoprics, or while the bishops were in foreign 

 parts. The writs of summons also preserve the 

 distinction of prelati and magnates ; and whereas 

 temporal lords are required to appear in fide et 

 ligeantia, in the writs of the bishops the word lige- 

 antia is omitted, and the command to appear is 

 in fide et dilectione. See Selden's Titles of Ho- 

 nour, 575. 



A bishop confirmed may sit in Parliament as a 

 lord thereof. It is laid down indeed by Lord 

 Coke that a bishop elect may so sit; but in the 

 case of Evans and Ascuith, M. 3. Car., Jones held 

 clearly that a bishop cannot be summoned to 

 Parliament before confirmation, without wbich the 

 election is not complete ; and he added that 

 it was well known that Bancroft, being trans- 

 lated to the bishopric of London, could not 

 come to Parliament before his confirmation. A 

 bishop, however, can sit before he has received 

 restitution of temporalities, says Dr. Richard 

 Burn, because he sits by usage and custom. 

 Lord Coke says archbishops and bishops shall be 

 tried by the country, that is, by freeholders, for
