They therefore ask that they receive payment, or be allowed the equivalent sums against their payments towards the triennial tenths granted in the present parliament.

Note (Additional information about the record)
- The petition refers to the original repayments as being due in 1341 (the promise was given on 18 February 1341). Three clerical tenths were granted in June 1344 (by convocation rather than parliament), and this is presumably the tax referred to here, since the next such grant was not until 1370. This would indicate that the petition was presented to the parliament of June 1344.
