A collection of the names of all the princes of this kingdom of England, such as have been the kings eldest sons, or next inheritors to the crown, beginning in the time of the Reign of King Henry III. unto this present, being in July, 1609, And in the Seventh Year of the Reign of our Sovereign Lord King James; Wherein shall be shewed, I. What every of their Titles Honour and Dignity have been. II. What Possessions and Revenues they had. III. What Age they were when these Dignities and Possessions were conferred upon them. IV. Certain Reasons alledged, which moved the Kings in former Times, (as may be conceived) to create their Sons Princes of Wales. And, lastly, To remove all Inconveniencies, here shall be answered certain Objections, which may be conceived against the creating of the Princes of this Kingdom; with an Answer likewise to that which has been published by Dr. Powell in his Welsh Chronicles, p. 369, against the creating of Prince Edward, Son to King Henry Viii. and all other succeeding Princes. Which Collections may serve as an Inducement for the more speedy creating of Prince Henry, his Majesty's first begotten Son that now is, and other the eldest Sons of the Kings of this Realm; thereby the better to judge what yearly Revenues, Authority and Jurisdiction, were most fit for his and their Princely Supportation and Honour. To which are added, advice to Prince Henry, and An Order from the Black Prince.
