I hereby command you, if any one, either clerk or laic, in your bailiwick shall appeal to the court of Rome, to have him arrested and put in ward until my pleasure shall be known. Also that you seize into your own hands all the revenues all the revenues and possessions of the archbishop of Canterbury, as Randolf de Broc and my other officers shall signify to you. Also to arrest the fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters, nephew and nieces of all the clerks who are with the archbishop, and put them and their chattels in safe-pledge, until my pleasure shall be known, and that you bring this brief with you when you are summoned.
