Given that many cattle owners have argued that their cattle was sick and weak […] in order to keep the cattle in the Bardenas Reales during twenty, thrirty or even more days; the Royal Council, being entitled for that, has collected several opinions and [has reached the conclusion that] everything [the sickness and weakness of the cattle] was uncertain and [had been argued] only with the aim of grazing the grass for the benefit of their cattle. [Therefore] it has been established that, by the 1st of June, all the cattle, both healthy and sick, shall be taken out of the Bardenas Reales, on pain of 2 reales for head, assigned in a similar way, without being possible for the Royal Council or other substitute bodies to issue similar licenses, because in case they were issued and the stationing of the cattle accepted, the grass would be ruined, and the water, the grass and the huts woud be contaminated […]  and, in case of this problem [cattle sickness] appeared, the major of the village where the cattle owner was neighbour shall indicate a field within the district of his own village outside the Bardenas so the cattle can stay there during the sickness period.
