4. As to all moveables possessed on either side, as also all
rents, revenues, and profits, no disputes or lawsuits shall be
made concerning them.
5. The subjects on both sides shall be fully restored to all
their lands, signiories, and inheritances, and all immoveables
in the condition they are; as also such moveables as are upon
the spot, and arrearages of rents, and thus be put into the
possession of them without any let or molestation.
6. All disorders and injuries done and committed during the war
on either side are remitted, pardoned, and abolished, in such
a manner as if they had never been, and no law-suit or process
shall ever be formed concerning them.
7. Seeing both the king and we have, in the beginning of
the troubles, forbidden all trade and commerce between our
subjects, a free trade and commerce is now restored, both by
sea and land, as before the war.
8. All judgments, judicial proceedings, and sentences, given on
either side during the war against the adherents of the king or
us, upon the account of contumacy or otherwise, shall be null
and of no effect.
9. The allies of both parties shall be comprehended in this
treaty, if within a year after the conclusion of it they
signify their assent in due form, which assent or declaration
the king and the duke are to notify to one another within
two months after the same is made; but, in case that should
not be done, there shall be no breach of the peace between
them. The observance of all which we do oblige ourselves
unto, in the most solemn manner imaginable, upon the word of
a prince, and upon the forfeiture of all we have; and in case
we contravene the same, we shall subject ourselves to all
censures ecclesiastical: we shall also cause these presents to
be registered in all our courts by our proper officers.
CH. X.—How the Duke of Burgundy having encamped before Beauvais, and
finding he could not take it, raised the Siege, and marched with his Army
to Rouen.—1472.
