Similar liberties were granted to King's College and all the clauses can be found as in this, though not in the same order, in the grant to King's College of 16 March 1446, printed in Rotuli Parliamentorum vol. V, pp.93-101. The grant to Eton precisely tallying with the wording of this mandate has not been found.
