To the dean and chapter of St. Patrick's Dublin. R. bishop of Coventry
and Lichfield, principal collector of the tenth for two years imposed upon
the clergy of Ireland and granted to the king by pope John XXII., has
intimated to the king that whereas he, by apostolic authority, sent to the
dean and chapter his letters executory to exact and receive the tenth from
the prelates and clergy of Ireland, the dean and chapter have written back
to him that the prelates and clergy, having heard and understood his letters,
alleged that they were not bound to obey his letters unless the original bull
was shewn to them, and that they had appealed frivolously to the pope
lest anything should be done herein by the dean and chapter, who had
superseded the exaction of the tenth for that reason, in contempt of the
apostolic order and to the king's astonishment, especially as canon law
(jura) does not admit such allegation or excuse; the king therefore, considering the excuse or allegation as frivolous, and willing that the apostolic
order shall be executed, transmits by the bearer to the dean and chapter
the original bull of the imposition of the tenth, which is to be brought back
after it has been inspected, and he orders the dean and chapter to execute
the matter aforesaid with such diligence and care that their filial obedience
may be evident to the pope, and that the king may command them.

Sapy, then keeper of the land of Powys, in the king's hands, to deliver the
said lands, etc., to Roger and Joan, because Roger had found the king
security for his fidelity, as it appears by the certificate of the keeper that
certain malefactors and disturbers of the king's peace of those parts hindered
his delivering the lands and goods to Roger and Joan, so that he was unable
to execute the king's order, as the king learns from the complaint of Roger
