There are indications that this text borrows from an earlier lost treatise, possibly by William Lord Howard of Naworth, and it is argued that the extracts are probably from the same body of material then in the Cottonian Library as was drawn on by Thomas Masters in his notes for Edward Lord Herbert of Cherbury, published in 1985. Whilst the documents deepen our understanding of the movement in a number of ways, their major contribution is to confirm the opinion of earlier writers that the rising was characterised by a marked hostility to landlords. Extracts are given from two previously unknown inquests into the ills of the commonwealth, one of which complains about the practice of lords evicting tenants and calls on the tenants to band together to resist: the other rejects the payment of entry fines and performance of boon days.",
