This Conquest was undertaken upon just Grounds, Edward II. King of England, having married Isabella Daughter to Philip the Fair of France, whose three Sons dying without Issue, the Crown descended to the Heirs of Isabella; and then it was when Edward III. in right of his Mother claimed the Kingdom of France, that they made their Salick Law, which could however bar only for the future, and not for the time past; and therefore the King invaded France, and was very successful in all the Battels he sought; but by reason of several Diversions at home, this Success was not pursued by his immediate Successors; yet Henry V. (a Prince of a Warlike Temper) coming to the Crown, and considering that not only Normandy, Guien, Aquitain, and A•j•u, were the rightful Inheritances of the Kings of England, but also his just Title to the whole Kingdom of France, derived from Isabella aforesaid; after he had first by Ambassadors set forth and demanded his Right, he with an English Army invades France, and having won several Battels, was at last married to Katherine, Daughter of Charles VI. and thereupon declared and crowned King of France in Reversion: Charles and Isabella his Queen to reign during their Lives, and Isabella surviving Charles, at her Death made a Will, declaring her Son-in-Law Henry V. Heir to all her Goods, and to the Crown; which gives the Kings of England a farther Right to the Kingdom of France. And I am perswaded, if the French King had half so much Right to England, as the King of England hath to France, we should be pestered with his Manifesto 's and Scribles, alledging his just Pretensions, as he calls all that he makes.
