An award of King Charles the First, under his broad-seal. Settling two shillings of the pound out of the rents of the houses in Norwich, for the maintenance of the parochial clergy of that city, in lieu of personal tithes. With a treatise vindicating the legality and justice of that award, and showing, That Personal Tithes, in lieu of which the said Payment of two Shillings of the Pound was Awarded, are still due by the Law of the Land, although they have been unjustly substracted ever since the Statute of the 2d. and 3d. of King Edward the Sixth, which took away the Oath whereby they are to be proved; And that there is a Necessity of again restoring them, or settling something else in lieu of them, for the Main tenance of Ministers in the Cities and larger Towns of the Realm. By Humphrey Prideaux, D. D. Dean of Norwich.
