A vindication of the case relating to the green-wax-fines; shewing how the rights and prerogative of the crown are diminished, officers enrich'd, and the subjects oppressed by the mis-management of that revenue. Also, disproving the allegations used to hinder a reformation thereof, as contradictory to the reports and resolutions of the judges and lawyers, and the experience of persons of all ranks and degrees in all ages. Proved by undeniable matter upon record, against which the law alloweth no plea or averment.
