This Portsoken, which
soundeth as
much as the Franchise at the gate, was
sometime a Guilde, and had this beginning,
as I haue reade. In the daies of king Edgar,
more then 600. yeres since, there were thirteene Knights (or sol
diers) welbeloued to the king and realme (for seruice by them done)
which requested to haue a certain portion of land on the East part
of the Citie, left desolate, and forsaken, by the inhabitants, by rea
son of too much seruitude. They besought the king to haue this
land, with the Libertie of a Guilde for euer: the king granted to
their request with conditions following: that is, that each of them
should victoriously accomplish thrée combates, one aboue the
ground, one vnder ground, and the thirde in the water, and after
this at a certaine day in East Smithfield, they should run with
speares against all commers, all which was gloriously performed:
and the same day the king named it knighten Guilde, and so boun
ded it, from Ealdgate to the place where the bars now are toward
the East, on both the sides of the streete, and extended it towardes
the North, and the gate now since called Bishopsgate, vnto the
and then of the heires of Coluer, after that of Iohn Esseby, but
since of the Lord Bourchier, &c. And againe towardes the South
vnto the Riuer of Thames, and so far into the water, as a horse
man entering the same may ryde at a low water, and throw his
speare: so that all East Smithfielde, with the right part of the
streete that goeth to Dodding Pond into the Thames, and also
the Hospitall of S. Katherins, with the Mils, that were founded
in king Stephens daies, and the outward stone wall, and the new
ditch of the Tower are of the saide Fee and Libertie: for the saide
wall and ditch of the Tower, were made in the time of king Rich
arde, when he was in the holy Land, by William Longshamp
Bishop of Ely, as before I haue noted vnto you. These knightes
had as then none other Charter, by all the daies This text is the corrected text. The original is a o f Edgar, Ethel

the heires of those knightes humblie besought to confirme their
Liberties, whereunto he gratiously graunting, gaue them a deed
Trinitie, written in the Saxon letter and tongue. After this king
William the sonne of William the Conqueror, made a confirma
tion of the same Liberties, vnto the heires of these knightes, in
these wordes. Wiliam king of Englande to Maurice Bishop
and Godfrey de Magum, and Richarde de Parr, and to his
faithfull people of London, greeting, know yee mee to haue

ties sake. After which time, the Church of the holy Trinitie
within Ealdgate of London, being founded by Queene Matilde
wife to the saide Henry, the multitude of Brethren praising God
day and night therein, in short time so increased, that all the Citie
was delighted in the beholding of them: insomuch that in the yere
1115. certaine Burgeses of London, of the progeny of those noble
English knightes to wit Radulphus Fitzalgod, Wilmarde le
stanus, and Alwine his kinsman, and Robert his brother, the
sonnes of Leafstanus the Goldsmith, Wizo his sonne, Hugh Fitz
vulgar, Algare Secusme, comming together into the Chapter
house of the saide church of the Holy Trinity, gaue to the same
Church and Canons seruing God therein, all the Landes and
Soke called in English Knighten Guilde, which lieth to the
wall of the Citie, without the same gate, and stretcheth to the ri
uer of Thames, they gaue it, I say, taking vpon them the Brother
hoode and participation of the benefites of that house by the hands
of Prior Norman. And the better to confirme this their grant,
they offered vpon the Altar there, the Charter of Edwarde toge
ther with the other Charters, which they had thereof: and after
warde they did put the foresaide Prior in seisine thereof, by the
Church of S. Buttolphes which is builded thereon, and is the
head of that land: These things were thus done, before Barnarde
Prior of Dunstable, Iohn Prior of Derland, Geffery Glinton
Chamberlain, and many other Clarks and Laymen, French &
English, Orgar le Prude (one of their Companie) was sent to
King Henry, beseeching him to confirm their gifte, which the king
gladly granted, by this deede following. Henry king of Eng
land to R B. of London, to the Shiriffes, and Prouost, and to al
his Barons, and faithfull people, French and English, of London
firmed to the Church and Canons of the Holy Trinitie of Lon
don, the Soke of the English knighten Guild, and the land which
pertayneth thereunto, and the Church of S. Buttolph, as the
men of the same Guilde haue giuen, and granted vnto them: and
I will and straightlie commande that they may holde the same
well and honorably and freely,|with sacke, and soke, Toll, and
Thea, infangthefe and all customes belonging to it, as the men of
the same Guilde in best sort had the same in the time of king Ed
warde, and as king William my Father, and brother1 did grant
it to them, by their writs. Witnesse A. the Queene2 Geffery Glin

Al these prescribed writinges (saith my booke), which sometime be
longed to the Priorie of the Holy Trinitie, are registred in the end
marked with the Letter C. folio 134. The king sent also his
Shiriffes to wit, Albert de Vere, and Roger nephew to Hubert
which vpon his behalfe should inuest this Church, with the pos
session hereof, which the saide Shiriffes accomplished comming v

the Liberties of the Citie) the same Prior was for him, and his
Successors, admitted as one of the Aldermen of London, to go
