(1) No citizens are to plead without the walls. The second Charter adds “except in pleas for exterior tenures, my moneyers and servants excepted.”
By the second clause the citizens are freed from Scot and Lot and Danegeld and Murder. Henry the Second substitutes acquittance of murder within the City and Portsoken.
(6) Clause 6 is omitted in the second Charter.
(9) Clause 9. I have already shown the error discovered by Round in the word wardemotum.
(10) Here is a limitation, “quæ infra urbem sunt,” which are within the City.
(11) The clause concerning debtors omitted in the second Charter.
(12) About taking toll or any other custom from the citizens: for the “citizens” is substituted the Sheriff.
(13) Observe that Henry the Second does not speak of the Sheriff of London, but of my Sheriff.
The most important omission, however, in the second Charter is that which gives the citizens the right to hold Middlesex on the firma of £300 a year, and the right to elect their own Justiciar and Sheriff.
