Plea for the Lords and House of Peers, Omission – Errata
An Omiſsion in pag. 30: l. 7.
RAnulph de Glanvil Chief Juſtice under King Henry the 2. In his Tractatus de Legibus et Conſuetudinibus Regni Angliae, *See lib. 8. c. 2, 3.written in the 33 year of his reign hath this memorable paſſage relating to the Parliamentary Councils in that age, l. 2. c. 7. Eſt autem magna Aſſiſa, REGALE QƲODDAM BENEFICIUM, CLEMENTIA PRINCIPIS DE CONSILIO PROCERUM POPƲLIS INDƲLTUM (to wit in a Parliamentary Council of the King and Lords without any Commons) quo vitae hominum et ſtatus integritati, tam ſalubriter conſulitur, ut in jure quod quis de libero ſoli tenemento poſſidet retinendo, duell… caſum declinare poſſunt homines ambiguum, &c. Ex aequitate autem, maxi… prodita eſt LEGALIS ISTA INSTITUTIO. Jus enim quod poſt multas & longas dilationes, vix evincitur per duellum, per beneficium ISTIUS CONSTITUTIONIS, commodius et acceleratius expeditur. By which it is evident that the Grand Aſſize was no original Proceſſe or Trial at the Common Law, but a legal institution, and beneficial conſtitution proceeding from the Grace of the Prince, and indulged to the People BY THE COUNSEL OF THE LORDS aſſembled together in a Parliamentary Council (which Lib. 2. c. 9. Glanvil ſtiles, Recordum per Aſſiſam DE CONSILIO REGNI inde factum) for the ſpeedier and better recovery of their freeholds, without endangering their lives by a Duel to recover them, which was fuller of delays, but leſs certain, and more unjuſt than a recovery by verdict in this new action. And this Court he ſtiles, CAPITALEM CURIAM DOMINI REGIS, l. 6. c. 8. l. 8. c. 11. l. 12. c. 1. to which cauſes uſually were adjourned, out of the †See here, p. 406.Hundred Courts and Court Barons for difficulty, and there decided as well as in the Kings Bench. Quando aliquis BARO habet aliquam loquelam in Curia ſua, ita quod Curia ipſa non ſufficiat eam determinare, tunc poteſt Dominus ipſe Curiam ſuam ponere: in Cur. Dom. Reg. ita quod de dubitatione ipſa Conſilium et Aſſenſum habeat Curlae Dom. Reg. quid inde de jure fierl …ebeat, Et hoc debet Dom. Rex de Iure Baronibus ſuis, ſcilicet ob talem cauſam poſſunt ſui Barones Curias ſuas ſic in Curiam ſuam ponere: ita quod faciat eis habere in Curia ſua de peritis hominibus ſuis, qui eis ſuper hoc conſilium preſtent. Cum autem in Curia Domini Regis ſuper dubitationibus ſuis fuerint certificati, poterunt inde cum loquela ſua redire, et ipſam in Curia ſua deducere et terminare: as he reſolves l. 8. c. 11.
