To the King 's Writ of Bastardy whether one being born afore matrimony may inherit in like manner as he that is born after matrimony all the Bishops answered that they would not nor could not answer to it because it was directly against the common order of the Church And all the Bishops instanted the Lords that they would consent that all such as were born afore matrimony should be legitimate as well as they that be born within matrimony as to the succession of inheritance forsomuch as the Church accepteth such to be legitimate And all the Earls and Barons with one voice answered We will not change the Laws of England which hitherto have been used and approved In the Reign of King Edward the First IN the Reign of King Edward the First a Subject brought in a Bull of Excommunication against another Subject of this Realm and published it to the Lord Treasurer of England and this was by the ancient Common Law of England adjudged Treason against the King his Crown and Dignity for the which the offendor should have been drawn and hanged but at the great instance of the Chancellour and Treasurer he was onely abjured the Realm for ever The said King Edward the 1. presented his Clerk to a Benefice within the Province of York who was refused by the Archbishop for that the Pope by way of Provision had conferred it on another The King thereupon brought a Quare non admisit The Archbishop pleaded that the Bishop of Rome had long time before provided to the said Church as one having supreme Authority in that case and that he durst not nor had power to put him out which was by the Pope's Bull in possession For which his high Contempt against the King his Crown and Dignity in refusing to execute his Sovereign's Commandment fearing to doe it against the Pope's Provision by judgement of the Common Law the Lands of his whole Bishoprick were seized into the King's hands and lost during his life Which Judgement was before any Statute or Act of Parliament was made in that case And there it is said that for the like offence the Archbishop of Canterbury had been in worse case by the judgement of the Sages of the Law then to be punished for a Contempt if the King had not extended grace and favour to him Concerning men twice married called Bigamy whom the Bishop of Rome by a Constitution made at the Council of Lions hath excluded from all priviledge of Clergy whereupon certain Prelates
