Which early English document influenced most states to include a bill of rights in their constitutions?

Magna Carta, which was written in 1215 CE, exerted a powerful influence both on the United States Constitution and on the constitutions of the various states. Americans of the 1700s viewed Magna Carta as a declaration of universal rights. Magna Carta was widely believed to be the people’s reassertion of rights against a tyrannical ruler. This legacy captured the early American distrust of concentrated political power that was inherent in a monarchy. In part because of this tradition, most of the state constitutions included declarations of rights to guarantee individual citizens a list of protections and freedoms from the state government. The United States also adopted the Bill of Rights at the federal level, in part, due to this political conviction.

The state declarations of rights included particular guarantees that were understood at the time of their ratification to have descended from rights protected by Magna Carta. Among these are freedom from unlawful searches and seizures, a right to a speedy trial, the rights of the accused to a jury, and protection from loss of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.
