Excerpt from History of England, Vol. 1
Confessor, who takes care of the king's con science, and imposes very hard penances upon him when he has sinned. But for some time past, our kings have been accustomed to turn their chaplains really to good use, by employing them constantly as their writing clerks. In this capacity the most irnportant matters of public business must pass through their hands. Hence they have much power, and a power which was 'totally unknown to our ancestors; and in this innovating age, their influence has been greatly 'increased by a fashion which our good king Edward has brought from France. He has caused a great seal to be made, on which you may see his effigy, in his imperial robes; and to all the writs or written letters, which issue in his name, an impression from that seal is appended.
