The British nation a history / by George MWrong . n he saw that he had beentrapped. AVhat were the vague customs that he under-took thus publicly to obey? Henry soon made this clear.A committee composed of the oldest and wisest of thebarons drew up hurriedly, within nine days, a documentfamous in history as the Constitutions of Clarendon. Insixteen articles it defined the ancient customs, andBecket saw at once that to j^ut his seal to them was tosurrender all for which he had been struggling. Therewere to be no appeals to Rome; the clergy might noteven go abroad without the kings consent; the kinghimself was to be supreme over the Church courts;clerics must appear before laymen.
