Details of
Title: The Lords of the Parliament in England to Richard II.
Description:

Are gratified by the good news from Ireland related by the Duke of Gloucester, the King's uncle, and by Lawrence Dru, the King's esquire, and others, in presence of the Lords and Commons assembled in Parliament; how the rebels MacMorough and the great O'Nel, and others of the strongest captains there, have submitted to the King, and sworn to be faithful lieges in future. It is evident that the King has conquered the greater portion of that land. Commend his proceedings, and pray him, for certain urgent causes, to return to England, leaving deputies in Ireland, who will treat the people with justice.

 

Signed by archbishops, bishops, dukes, earls, and others.

 

Dated "16" Ric. II. by Carew.
