They also foresaw, that the thunders of Rome, when not second ed by the efforts of the English ecclesiastics, would be of small avail against them; and they perceived, that the most considerable of the prelates, as well as all the inferior clergy, professed the highest approbation of their cause. Besides that these men were seized with the national pas sion for laws and liberty ; blessings, of which they them selves expected to partake; there concurred very powerful causes to loosen their devoted attachment to the apostolic see. It appeared, from the late usurpations of the Roman pontiff, that he pretended to reap alone all the advantages accruing from that victory, which, under his banners, though at their own peril, they had every where obtained over the civil magistrate. The Pope assumed a despotic power over all the churches: their particular customs, privileges, and immunities, were treated with disdain : even the canons of general councils were set aside by his dispensing power : the whole administration of the church was centred in the court of Rome: all preferments ran of course in the same channel: and the provincial clergy saw, at least felt, that there was a necessity for limiting these pretensions. The legate, Nicholas, in filling those numerous vacancies which had fallen in England during an interdict of six years, had proceeded in the most arbitrary manner; and had paid no regard, in conferring dignities, to personal merit, to rank, to the inclination of the electors, or to the customs of the country. The Eng lish church was universally disgusted; and Langton him self, though he owed his elevation to an encroachment of the Roman see, was no sooner established in his high office, than he became jealous of the privileges annexed to it, and formed attachments with the country subjected to his jurisdiction. These causes, though they opened slowly the eyes of men, failed not to produce their effect: they set bounds to the usurpations of the papacy: the tide first stopped, and then turned against the sovereign pontiff: and it is otherwise inconceivable how that age, so prone to superstition, and so sunk in ignorance, or rather so devoted to a spurious erudition, could have escaped falling into an absolute and total slavery under the court of Rome. Insurrection of About the time that the Pope’s letters the barons. arrived in England, the malcontent barons on the approach of the festival of Easter, when they were to expect the king’s answer to their petition, met by agree ment at Stamford ; and they assembled a force, consisting of above 2000 knights, besides their retainers and inferior persons without number. Elated with their power, they »7ih A ril advanced in a body to Brackley, within fif- ' ' teen miles of Oxford, the place where the court then resided; and they there received a message from the king, by the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Earl of Pembroke, desiring to know what those liberties were which they so zealously challenged from their sove reign. They delivered to these messengers a schedule containing the chief articles of their demands; which was no sooner shown to the king, then he burst into a furious passion, and asked, why the barons did not also demand of him his kingdom? swearing that he would never grant them such liberties as must reduce himself to slavery/ No sooner were the confederated nobles informed of John’s reply, than thev chose Robert Fitz-Walter their general, whom they called the Mareschal of the army of God and of Holy Church; and they proceeded without further ceremony to levy war upon the king. They be sieged the castle of Northampton during fifteen days, though without success the gates of Bedford castle were willingly opened to them by William Beauchamp, ->4tli Ma ■ * ts owner • f’’ e y advanced to Ware in their 1 aJ ' way to London, where they held a corre spondence with the principal citizens: they were received without opposition into that capital: and finding now the great superiority of their force, they issued proclamations, requiring the other barons to join them; and menacing 9C 19 III ai 9li sri 9g 9d bn ot bg ba 1st 9d; ot YT) 9dj 9’11 9111 9d ;I Isfi <no ba; <891 tea- £ X 9sis 110'1 or j itn< ■911.

XI. them, in case of refusal or delay, with committing devas tation on their houses and estates. 11 In order to show what might be expected from their prosperous arms, they made incursions from London, and laid waste the king’s parks and palaces; and all the barons, who had hitherto carried the semblance of supporting the royal party, were glad of this pretence for openly joining a cause which they always had secretly favoured. The king was left at Odiham in Hampshire, with a poor retinue of only seven knights, and after trying several expedients to elude the blow 1 , after offering to refer all differences to the Pope alone, or to eight barons, four to be chosen by himself, and four by the confederates, 1 he found himself at last obliged to submit at discretion. A conference between the king and the Magna Charta. barons was appointed at Runnemede, be- 15111 J" 116 - tween Windsor and Staines; a place which has ever since been extremely celebrated, on account of this great event. The two parties encamped apart, like open enemies; and after a debate of a few days, the king, with a facility somewhat suspicious, signed and sealed the h June charter which was required of him. This famous deed, commonly called the Great Charter, either granted or secured very important liberties and privileges to every order of men in the kingdom; to the clergy, to the barons, and to the people. The freedom of elections was secured to the clergy : the former charter of the king was confirmed, by which the necessity of a royal conge-d’elire and confirmation was superseded: all check upon appeals to Rome was re moved, by the allowance granted every man to depart the kingdom at pleasure : and the fines to be imposed on the clergy for any offence, were ordained to be proportional to their lay estates, not to their ecclesiastical benefices. The privileges granted to the barons were either abate ments in the rigour of the feudal law, or determinations in points which had been left by that law, or had become, by practice, arbitrary and ambiguous. The reliefs of heirs succeeding to a military fee were ascertained; an earl’s and baron’s at a hundred marks, a knight’s at a hundred shil lings. It was ordained by the charter, that, if the heir be a minor, he shall, immediately upon his majority, enter upon his estate, without paying any relief: the king shall not sell his wardship : he shall levy only reasonable profits upon the estate, without committing waste, or hurting the property: he shall uphold the castles, houses, mills, parks, and ponds: and if he commit the guardianship of the estate to the sheriff or any other, he shall previously oblige them to find surety to the same purpose. During the minority of a baron, while his lands are in wardship, and are not in his own possession, no debt which he owes to the Jews shall bear any interest. Heirs shall be married without disparagement; and before the marriage be con tracted, the nearest relations of the person shall be informed of it. A widow, without paying any relief, shall enter upon her dower, the third part of her husband’s rents: she shall not be compelled to marry, so long as she chooses to continue single; she shall only give security never to marry without her lord’s consent. The king shall not claim the wardship of any minor who holds lands by military tenure of a baron, on pretence that he also holds lands of the crown, bysoccage or any other tenure. Scutages shall be estimated at the same rate as in the time of Henry I.; and no scutage or aid, except in the three general feudal cases, the king’s captivity, the knighting of his eldest son, and the marrying of his eldest daughter, shall be imposed but by the great council of the kingdom; the prelates, earls, and great barons, shall be called to this great council, each by a particular writ; the lesser barons by a general summons of the sheriff. The king shall not seize any baron’s land for a debt to the crown, if the baron possesses as many goods and chattels as are sufficient to discharge the debt. No man shall be obliged to perform more service for his fee than he is bound to by his tenure. No governor or constable of a castle shall oblige any knight to give money for castle-guard, if the knight be willing to perform the service in person, or by another able-bodied man; and if the knight be in the field him-
