Thomas Derneley recently of Edmundthorp in the aforesaid county, aliomnis (?nourisher, almsgiver) alias donor, Thomas Derneley Rector of the parish church of Edmundthorp, in sum, was answerable to Richard Sherard who represented both the King and the separate (law) suit of parliament, to render him (Richard) £40 which he (Thomas) owes and is unlawfully retaining, using the reason that he is attacking the terms of the statute in the present parliament whereas he is really attacking the persons to be satisfied from the fine (farm is farm or fine or rent) for not enfeoffing or occupying, recently ordained, and first, after and from then on this means Richard, representing both the King and the separate suit of parliament.
Edmund Warde, attorney on the last day in every statute in the King's parliament, that is, at Westminster, on the first day of November in the 21st year of the King's reign, holds and orders by the authority of the same parliament, enacts thus. Each and every ecclesiastic when they hold, seek to hold or have occupied a farm through separate people or through some other to their use, have tenements or hereditaments obtained from a demise or grant of the King or other person or persons through life tenancy or demise or at a will through something written or otherwise hold or seek to hold some livestock for rent or other advantage or profit of keeping livestock, or their cultivation of food, by such demise or farm before enfeoffed of (?his ancient yoke) then at the next suit they would bargain to give, would sell, would give or would yield to another such layperson or persons as if they themselves wanted for their own use and appointment, all such demise to be of interest or such profit of such ecclesiastic for his use at the time of the aforesaid statute.[All the above incur a penalty, also] the occupation of the nourishment of such farm by evil method of such ecclesiastic or ecclesiastics at some time after the said enfeoffment through separate people or someone else to their use by fraudulent methods or evil design so that they would have the use or occupy the farm or tenements or hereditaments from demise or grant by person or persons before then made or of other nourishment to their uses. Again, if they have any livestock for rent or take advantage or profit from owning the animal or the cultivation of food from the demise or farm or from some other means they are under penalty of forfeiting through an agent by occupying some such farm at some time after the feoffment of the house, in opposition to the same attorney, they owe £10 and under penalty of forfeiting ten times as much, that is, the ecclesiastic or some other to his use, and again the same applies to use of livestock, one half being forfeit to the King and the other half (?those who pursued the original complaint and gave information to the King) ???
yet Thomas lightly weighing the aforesaid statute for four months after the aforesaid feoffment (?of his ancient yoke) in the year of the reign of the King .........
There are missing lines at the bottom of the page. Essentially it covers the problem of priests having multiple livings and tries to force the priests to have one living. Or you could say Henry was trying to squeeze money out of the church before the famous dissolution of the monasteries.
