Wherein the original of the Commons House, and elections of knights, citzens, burgesses, and barons of ports to sit in Parliament, is infallibly evidenced to be no antienter than 49 H. 3. the presidents and objections to the contrarie, answered: the original of antient boroughs, and how many they were under King Edward the 1. 2, 3. discovered: the power of the kings of England, in creating new boroughs by charters or writs, augmenting, diminishing the number of knights, burgesses, Members of the Commons House, and altering the forms of writs of summons, without a parliament; ... Some grosse mistakes touching Parliament writs and Members refuted, with many other rarities concerning Parliaments.
