only documents hitherto unprinted, and for conveni- 

 ence to give the text of the labour legislation of the 

 decade. The statutes have been reprinted from the 

 Statutes of the Realm, but have been collated with 

 the originals on the Statute Roll. The first ordinance, 

 also reprinted from the Statutes, has been collated 

 with the Close Roll enrollment and has been grouped 

 with the other enactments ; but the second ordinance 

 and the "Statutum de Forma, etc," which the editors 

 of the Statutes took from British Museum transcripts, 

 with some consequent errors, are now printed from 

 exchequer enrollments and grouped with other ex- 

 chequer documents.^
