The unwieldy reference to "Baronets of England Scotland Great Britain Ireland and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland" was replaced with "Baronets of Our United Kingdom," and the recipient's name was only given once instead of being repeated several times. The language about the privileges of a baronet was also tightened, and the references to them being enjoyed "&lt;span&gt;honourably and quietly" was omitted. &lt;/span&gt;</text>
