“No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or  

possessions, or outlawed or exiled, or deprived of his standing in any other way,  

nor will we proceed with force against him, or send others to do so, except by the  

lawful judgment of his equals or by the law of the land.”  

“We will appoint as justices, constables, sheriffs, or other officials, only  

men that know the law of the realm and are minded to keep it well.” 

“To no one will we sell, to no one deny or delay right or justice.”

“As soon as peace is restored, we will remove from the kingdom all the  

foreign knights, bowmen, their attendants, and the mercenaries that have come  

to it, to its harm, with horses and arms.”
