Chapter LI: says that as soon as peace is made all foreign mercenaries
are to be banished.
Chapters LII. and LIII. are those in which the king promises to make
amends for the injuries he has done to his barons in the past. He will
restore lands and castles to those who have been deprived of them
without the judgment of their peers; he will do the same concerning
property unlawfully seized by Henry II. or Richard I. and now in his
hands. In the latter case, however, he was allowed a respite until he
returned from the projected crusade. He promises also to do right
concerning forests, abbeys and the wardship of lands which belong
lawfully to others.
