Answer 1

The document you are referring to is the **Petition of Rights**. This significant constitutional document was passed in 1628 and affirmed that the king could not raise taxes without parliamentary consent and laid out other rights of the subjects, limiting the powers of the monarchy. The English Bill of Rights was established later in 1689.
