ALmighty
God
who
giueth
and
preserueth
all
Scepters
and
Crownes
,
and
disposeth
of
them
as
semeth
best
to
his
pleasure
,
who
in
his
hands
holdeth
the
hartes
of
kings
,
hauing
miraculously
guided
and
aduaunced
the
king
to
the
lawfull
succession
of
this
Monarchy
&c.
which
was
still
quarrelled
at
,
and
challenged
by
certaine
rebelles
,
supported
by
the
capitall
and
auncient
ennemies
of
France
,
&c.
He
was
entreated
,
desired
and
aduised
by
the
Princes
of
his
bloud
,
the
Officers
of
his
Crowne
,
the
Lordes
of
his
Counsel
,
and
the
most
notable
personages
of
his
Courts
of
Parliament
to
frame
himselfe
to
his
annointing
,
in
like
manner
as
other
kinges
his
predecessors
haue
allwayes
vsed
to
procéede
to
their
annointing
and
coronation
,
soone
after
their
comming
to
the
Crowne
:
which
said
annointing
is
the
token
of
their
Royalty
and
of
the
publike
approbation
of
the
French
nation
.
His
Maiesty
therefore
resolued
to
be
annoynted
,
and
could
haue
wished
that
the
said
ceremony
might
haue
béene
perfourmed
in
the
Church
of
Rheims
,
the
rather
for
that
of
long
time
,
the
kinges
haue
neuer
béene
other
where
annoynted
but
there
,
albeit
they
bée
no
way
tyed
or
bound
to
the
sayd
Church
,
either
to
the
Archbishop
of
Rheims
,
as
many
examples
and
reasons
doo
euidently
testifie
.
And
his
Maiestie
,
who
seeketh
to
preserue
all
the
auncient
and
laudable
customes
of
his
predecessors
,
and
the
Realme
,
could
haue
beene
contented
not
to
breake
this
,
in
case
the
Rebells
that
possesse
the
same
towne
,
would
together
therewith
,
haue
giuen
him
oportunity
to
haue
béene
there
annoynted
and
crowned
.
Héerevppon
for
the
effecting
of
the
resolution
of
his
annoynting
,
it
was
aduised
and
determined
,
that
in
as
much
as
Rheims
was
still
enclined
to
persist
in
her
rebellion
,
the
same
should
be
perfourmed
at
our
Lady
Church
in
Chartres
,
a
Church
famous
throughout
the
whole
Realme
,
as
also
in
diuers
partes
of
Christendome
:
the

béeing
situated
in

commodious
,
and
as
it
were
in
the
nauell
of
those
partes
of
the

from
whence
his
Maiestie
had
called
the

,
Lordes
,
and
principall
personages
of
his
Courtes
of
Parliament
,
to

ornamentes
Royall
,
all
which
were
to
bée
new
made
,
as
fayre
and
ritch
as
might
bée
,
by
reason
that
the
fellonious
minds
of
the
rebelles
had
molten
,
defaced
,
&
wasted
the
others
,
which
time
out
of
minde
had
bene
reserued
in
the
Church
of
S.
Dennis
in
France
to
serue
for
the
kings
annoynting
.
Howbeit
by
this
particular
and
so
execrable
a
déede
,
they
haue
declared
that
they
meant
to
root
out
as
well
the
tokens
,
markes
,
and
ornaments
of
royalty
,
as
the
effect
and
name
thereof
.
And
as
most
accursedly
they
found
meanes
to
murther
the
sacred
person
and
Maiesty
of
him
that
before
held
it
,
so
haue
they
sence
his
death
diuersly
attempted
the
like
against
the
person
of
him
that
now
holdeth
it
.
Vppon

as

vse
to
heare
them
in

if
the

of
