Common Law Treatise, Sir Edward Coke (1628 to 1644)

Sources drawn from Sir Edward Coke's Institutes of the Lawes of England, published in four parts between 1628 and 1644, the foundational early modern restatement of English common law. Belongs here: a citation to Coke's own treatise text. Does not belong here: William Blackstone's later Commentaries, which carries its own separate heading despite covering similar common law ground.
