Line 49:		Line 49:
	Yvetot, a little Scope of Land of Normandy in the Country of Caux near Caudebeck, whereof the Lord is said to have formerly had the Title of King, and that from Clotarius the First's Days, who having kill'd Gautier Lord of Yvetot in the Church of Soissons, condemned the Action afterwards; and being willing to repair it some way, erected the Lordship into a Kingdom. They that are against this History desire the primitive Title, that cannot be produc'd, and alledge that it's seldom that one Kingdom is erected within another; but answer'd, that the ancient Tradition and immemorial Possession confirmed by the King's Letters is Title enough. And that the County of Portugal was erected into a Kingdom by the King of Castile, and the Kingdom of Majorca established by the King of Arragon. But be this how it will, the Lords of Yvelot do not now enjoy that Sovereignty, and the Lords of Bellay that own it, content themselves with the Title of Prince of Yvetot.

Admin: Created page with "X. (BOOK X) X. THIS Letter has the force of a double Con∣sonant, which made the Ancients often make use of it instead of cs and gs, saying Apex for Apecs, and Grex for Grecs.

The Ancients made use of it to mark Ten, which is the Reason that V half the X is put for Five; and in this Sense Ausonius speaks of it in his Verses de Litt. Monos.
