Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a published reading from 1628 by an unidentified author given to a learned society known as the "Hourglass of my puisement." The author analyzes the 1539 statute on laws of sewers, which aimed to regulate the maintenance and safety of maritime areas in England. The author begins by providing historical background for the statute, examining its precedents in common law and the prerogatives of the Crown. The author then provides a detailed exegesis of the statute's provisions, discussing legal concepts such as livery of lands and the legal status of the English seas. The author argues that the statute's provisions were designed to protect the realm and its inhabitants from the dangers posed by the sea while also preserving the rights of individuals and the Crown. The author concludes by reflecting on the importance of these laws, arguing that they have been essential to the safety and prosperity of the English realm, particularly in its maritime regions. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
