Found it, I think.  Kinda hard to tell.  It don't all look like English.<br/><br/>Sorry, just bored.<br/><br/>-----------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Then hear me, gracious sovereign, and you peers,<br/>That owe yourselves, your lives and services<br/>To this imperial throne. There is no bar<br/>To make against your highness' claim to France<br/>But this, which they produce from Pharamond,<br/>'In terram Salicam mulieres ne succedant:'<br/>'No woman shall succeed in Salique land:'<br/>Which Salique land the French unjustly gloze<br/>To be the realm of France, and Pharamond<br/>The founder of this law and female bar.<br/>Yet their own authors faithfully affirm<br/>That the land Salique is in Germany,<br/>Between the floods of Sala and of Elbe;<br/>Where Charles the Great, having subdued the Saxons,<br/>There left behind and settled certain French;<br/>Who, holding in disdain the German women<br/>For some dishonest manners of their life,<br/>Establish'd then this law; to wit, no female<br/>Should be inheritrix in Salique land:<br/>Which Salique, as I said, 'twixt Elbe and Sala,<br/>Is at this day in Germany call'd Meisen.<br/>Then doth it well appear that Salique law<br/>Was not devised for the realm of France:<br/>Nor did the French possess the Salique land<br/>Until four hundred one and twenty years<br/>After defunction of King Pharamond,<br/>Idly supposed the founder of this law;<br/>Who died within the year of our redemption<br/>Four hundred twenty-six; and Charles the Great<br/>Subdued the Saxons, and did seat the French<br/>Beyond the river Sala, in the year<br/>Eight hundred five. Besides, their writers say,<br/>King Pepin, which deposed Childeric,<br/>Did, as heir general, being descended<br/>Of Blithild, which was daughter to King Clothair,<br/>Make claim and title to the crown of France.<br/>Hugh Capet also, who usurped the crown<br/>Of Charles the duke of Lorraine, sole heir male<br/>Of the true line and stock of Charles the Great,<br/>To find his title with some shows of truth,<br/>'Through, in pure truth, it was corrupt and naught,<br/>Convey'd himself as heir to the Lady Lingare,<br/>Daughter to Charlemain, who was the son<br/>To Lewis the emperor, and Lewis the son<br/>Of Charles the Great. Also King Lewis the Tenth,<br/>Who was sole heir to the usurper Capet,<br/>Could not keep quiet in his conscience,<br/>Wearing the crown of France, till satisfied<br/>That fair Queen Isabel, his grandmother,<br/>Was lineal of the Lady Ermengare,<br/>Daughter to Charles the foresaid duke of Lorraine:<br/>By the which marriage the line of Charles the Great<br/>Was re-united to the crown of France.<br/>So that, as clear as is the summer's sun.<br/>King Pepin's title and Hugh Capet's claim,<br/>King Lewis his satisfaction, all appear<br/>To hold in right and title of the female:<br/>So do the kings of France unto this day;<br/>Howbeit they would hold up this Salique law<br/>To bar your highness claiming from the female,<br/>And rather choose to hide them in a net<br/>Than amply to imbar their crooked titles<br/>Usurp'd from you and your progenitors.<br/>
