See also:VERBOCZY, ISTVAN See also:STEPHEN WERBOCZ] (1465?-IS41), Hungarian jurist and statesman, first became known as a See also:scholar and theologian of such See also:eminence that he was appointed to accompany the See also:emperor See also:Charles V. to See also:Worms, to take up the cudgels against See also:Luther. He began his See also:political career as the See also:deputy of the See also:county of Ugocsa to the See also:diet of 1498, where his eloquence and scholarship had a See also:great effect in procuring the See also:extension of the privileges of the gentry and the exclusion of all See also:foreign competitors for the Hungarian See also:throne in future elections. He was the spokesman and See also:leader of the gentry against the magnates and prelates at the diets of 1500, 1501 and 1505. At the last diet he insisted, in his See also:petition to the See also:- KING
- KING (O. Eng. cyning, abbreviated into cyng, cing; cf. O. H. G. chun- kuning, chun- kunig, M.H.G. kiinic, kiinec, kiinc, Mod. Ger. Konig, O. Norse konungr, kongr, Swed. konung, kung)

- KING, WILLIAM (1663–1712)
king, that the_ See also:law should be binding upon all the gentry alike, and firmly established in the minds of the See also:people the principle of a See also:national See also:monarchy. The most striking See also:- PROOF (in M. Eng. preove, proeve, preve, &°c., from O. Fr . prueve, proeve, &c., mod. preuve, Late. Lat. proba, probate, to prove, to test the goodness of anything, probus, good)
proof of his popularity at this See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

- TIME, STANDARD
time is the fact that the diet voted him two denarii per See also:hearth for his services in 1505, a circumstance unexampled in Hungarian See also:history. In 1517 Verboczy was appointed the See also:guardian of the See also:infant See also:- LOUIS
- LOUIS (804–876)
- LOUIS (893–911)
- LOUIS, JOSEPH DOMINIQUE, BARON (1755-1837)
- LOUIS, or LEWIS (from the Frankish Chlodowich, Chlodwig, Latinized as Chlodowius, Lodhuwicus, Lodhuvicus, whence-in the Strassburg oath of 842-0. Fr. Lodhuwigs, then Chlovis, Loys and later Louis, whence Span. Luiz and—through the Angevin kings—Hungarian
Louis II., and was sent on a foreign See also:mission to solicit the aid of Christendom against the See also:Turks. On his return he found the strife of partiesfiercer than ever and the whole See also:country in a See also:state of anarchy. At the diet of Hatvan, on the 25th of See also:June 1525, he delivered a reconciliatory oration which so affected the See also:assembly that i' elected him See also:palatine. During the brief time he held that hig: See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office he unselfishly and courageously endeavoured to serve both king and people by humbling the See also:pride of the magnates who were primarily responsible for the See also:dilapidation of the See also:realm. But he was deposed at the following diet, and retired from public See also:life till the See also:election of Janos Zapolya, who realized his theory of a national king and from whom he accepted the chancellorship. He now devoted himself entirely to the study of See also:jurisprudence, and the result of his labours was the famous See also:Opus tripartitum See also:juris consuetudinarii inclyti regni hungariae, which was the law-See also:book of See also:Hungary till 1848.
