	Enrolment of letters patent of Amadeus (Amez), count of Sauvoie, and the other envoys and proctors of the king of England, making known that whereas the pope pronounced between Philip, king of France, and the said king a durable and firm peace between them as to the disputes and wars that have been between them, and agreement between the kings has still to be made concerning inheritances and the conditions and what pertains and may pertain to these inheritances, and the king of England has recently sent Amadeus and the others to Amiens with the envoys of the king of France to treat and agree concerning these inheritances and their conditions and what pertains or may pertain to them, and of everything that remains to be agreed between the two kings; they, in order that the treaty may be brought to the desired end, have willed, granted and agreed that the peace pronounced by the pope shall be firmly held and observed until Easter next, and that they will, in the name of the king, cause prohibition to be made that no person of his lands or lordship shall, under pain of forfeiture of life and limb, maltreat by land or by sea the king of France and his men or lands until Easter, and that if any one offend in this behalf, the king of England will cause it to be redressed and to be replaced in its former estate without delay. In such manner that if within the said term one of them abandon or renounce the whole of the said treaty and break it, the said term until Easter shall be annulled and shall endure only until a month after one of the parties have broken the treaty openly with the other and by express words and have declared in express terms that he will no longer observe the treaty, but will break from it entirely. If by chance it happen that the dispute between the kings as to their inheritances and their conditions and as to what pertains or may pertain to the inheritances be not settled by agreement by assent of the parties or otherwise within the said term, then the king of England may prosecute and obtain his right in such manner as shall seem good to him. They will cause the present grant and promise and the said prohibitions to be ratified, agreed and approved, held and observed firmly and loyally by the king of England. Dated at Amyens, 25 November, 1302. French. [Cf. the similar enrolment from the Almain Rolls in Fœdera.]
