Summary
Charles, by the grace of God King of England, Scotland, France and Ireland, Defender of the Faith, etc.: To all men to whom these presents shall come, greeting.
Whereas our bishops, deans of our cathedral churches, archdeacons, chapters and colleges and the rest of the clergy within our kingdom of Ireland were summoned and called by virtue of our writs directed to the archbishops of the four several provinces and bearing date the four and twentieth day of May in the tenth year of our reign [24 May 1634], to appear before the said archbishops in the cathedral church of St Patrick's, Dublin, upon the one and twentieth day of July then next ensuing [21 July 1634], then and there to treat and conclude upon certain high and urgent affairs in the said writs mentioned; who did thereupon at the time appointed, and in the said cathedral church of St Patrick aforesaid, assemble themselves and appear in convocation for that purpose, according to the tenor of the said writs. And whereas we for divers urgent and weighty occasions, us thereunto moving, of our especial grace, certain knowledge and mere motion, did by virtue of our prerogative royal and supreme authority in causes ecclesiastical, give and grant by our letters patent under our great seal of Ireland, bearing date the one and twentieth day of July in the tenth year of our reign [21 July 1634], filli power and authority unto the said archbishops, bishops, deans, archdeacons, chapters, colleges and clergy of this kingdom then assembled in convocation, in the said cathedral church of St Patrick, that they from time to time, during the parliament then begun at Dublin, might confer, treat, consult and conclude of and upon such articles, canons, orders, ordinances, statutes and constitutions ecclesiastical as they shall think necessary, fit and convenient for the honour and service of Almighty God and augmentation of his divine worship, the rooting out of heresies and errors out of the vineyards of Christ;
