	Medieval Sourcebook: Waldemar the Victorious of Denmark: Grant of Market Privileges to Men of Lübeck, 1203

		But everyone must give lawful thelony to the officials of the lord King: they can sell cloth by the cubit; they can, also, sell other things by weight, both besemer and punder and this for the reason that the said King granted that such liberties should be observed in their free markets.
