secret
appears evidently, since otherwise it would have been ridiculous in the parliament to have accepted of his assent: Besides the king owns that he
dissembled,
which would not have been the case, had his protest been public.

[o]It is reported of this prince, that, having once, before the attack of a town, promised

the soldiers the plunder, one private man happened to fall upon a great chest full of money, which he immediately brought to the earl, as thinking it too great for himself to keep possession of it. But Derby told him, that his promise did not depend on the greatness or smallness of the sum; and ordered him to keep it all for his own use.

The princes were mostly released on the fulfilling of certain articles: Others of the hostages, and the duke of Berry among the rest, were permitted to return upon their parole, which they did not keep.

[z]This tax was a livre upon a hearth; and it was imagined, that the imposition would

have yielded 1,200,000 livres a year, which supposes so many hearths in the provinces possessed by the English. But such loose conjectures have commonly no manner of authority, much less in such ignorant times. There is a strong instance of it in the present reign. The house of commons granted the king a tax of twenty-two shillings on each parish, supposing that the amount of the whole would be 50,000

pounds. But they were found to be in a mistake of near five to one. Cotton, p. 3. And the council assumed the power of augmenting the tax upon each parish.

[o 92. The pay of a man at arms was quadruple. We may therefore conclude, that the

numerous armies, mentioned by historians in those times, consisted chiefly of

ragamuffins, who followed the camp, and lived by plunder. Edward’s army before

Calais consisted of 31,094 men; yet its pay for sixteen months was only 127,201

pounds. Brady, ibid.

[o]Commodities seem to have risen since the Conquest. Instead of being ten times

cheaper than at present, they were in the age of Edward III. only three or four times.

This change seems to have taken place in a great measure since Edward I. The allowance granted by Edward III. to the earl of Murray, then a prisoner in Nottingham castle, is one pound a week; whereas the bishop of St. Andrews, the primate of Scotland, had only six-pence a day allowed him by Edward I.
