John, Earl of Oxford, had entertained the sovereign at his house, and had exhibited two rows of retainers, wearing the Vere badge. The se...quel is familiar enough. Henry thanked his host for his hospitality, but, drily adding "he could not have his laws broken in his sight, " delivered Oxford to the tribunal he had just created.
