Excerpt from The Dublin Review, Vol. 149: Quarterly Nos; 298, 299, July October 1911 The final section of the Egbertine Order is concerned with a pronouncement to be made by the newly crowned Iing, which may be regarded in the light of a royal harter of liberties. His words are variously described in he texts preserved to us as mandata or praeepta and possi ly they may in their origin have been of the nature of a oluntary proclamation, a gracious exercise on the first ossible occasion, of the regal powers now divinely ratified y the blessing of the Church.
