[1] The occasion that mooued the king so to disherit the Normans, Matth. Paris. The occas [...] why the N [...]mans were disherited did chéefelie rise of the French kings dealing, who about the same time calling to him all those that had lands in England, required them ei|ther to sticke vnto him inseparablie, either else to the king of England, sith no man might serue two mai|sters. Wherevpon some forsaking their lands in England, liued on those which they had in France, and other forsooke those liuings which they had in France, and came ouer into England to liue on those possessions which they had here. But in the French kings dooings was no inforcing of men, either to forsake the one or the other: wherfore the procéedings of the king of England séemed somewhat more in|iurious, and partlie sounded to the breach of the truce. Howbeit all was passed ouer without apparant trouble.
