JOHN, by the grace of God King of England, Lord of Ireland, Duke of Normandy and Aquitaine, and Count of 
	Anjou, to his archbishops, bishops, abbots, earls, barons, justices, foresters, sheriffs, stewards, servants, and to 
	all his officials and loyal subjects, Greeting. 
	     KNOW THAT BEFORE GOD, for the health of our soul and those of our ancestors and heirs, to the honour of 
	God, the exaltation of the holy Church, and the better ordering of our kingdom, at the advice of our reverend fathers 
	Stephen, archbishop of Canterbury, primate of all England, and cardinal of the holy Roman Church, .....(and others)
	and other loyal subjects: 
	     + (1) FIRST, THAT WE HAVE GRANTED TO GOD, and by this present charter have confirmed for us and 
	our heirs in perpetuity, that the English Church shall be free, and shall have its rights undiminished, and its liberties 
	unimpaired. That we wish this so to be observed, appears from the fact that of our own free will, before the 
	outbreak of the present dispute between us and our barons, we granted and confirmed by charter the freedom 
	of the Church's elections - a right reckoned to be of the greatest necessity and importance to it - and caused this to 
	be confirmed by Pope Innocent III. This freedom we shall observe ourselves, and desire to be observed in good 
	faith by our heirs in perpetuity. 
	     TO ALL FREE MEN OF OUR KINGDOM we have also granted, for us and our heirs for ever, all the liberties 
	written out below, to have and to keep for them and their heirs, of us and our heirs: 

	35. Let there be one measure of wine throughout our whole realm; and one measure of ale; and one measure of corn, 
	to wit, "the London quarter"; and one width of cloth (whether dyed, or russet, or "halberget"), to wit, two ells within the 
	selvedges; of weights also let it be as of measures. 

	39. No freemen shall be taken or imprisoned or disseised or exiled or in any way destroyed, nor will we go upon 
	him nor send upon him, except by the lawful judgment of his peers or by the law of the land.
