his_o estate_n that_o he_o be_v not_o able_a to_o perform_v they_o i_o be_o not_o ignorant_a that_o when_o i_o give_v land_n to_o a_o man_n and_o his_o heir_n the_o law_n say_v that_o the_o word_n heir_n be_v by_o way_n of_o limitation_n not_o of_o purchase_n yet_o when_o a_o estate_n so_o descend_v or_o be_v give_v as_o aforesaid_a the_o heir_n by_o the_o intention_n of_o the_o ancestor_n and_o the_o donor_n aught_o to_o have_v a_o estate_n in_o point_n of_o interest_n as_o also_o in_o conscience_n after_o the_o death_n of_o his_o father_n for_o if_o a_o man_n shall_v demand_v of_o such_o a_o one_o who_o intend_v to_o leave_v his_o land_n to_o descend_v to_o a_o heir_n or_o of_o the_o donor_n whether_o he_o intend_v that_o his_o heir_n or_o the_o donor_n shall_v sell_v or_o give_v away_o the_o estate_n so_o descend_v or_o come_v through_o their_o goodness_n care_n and_o providence_n to_o a_o stranger_n i_o know_v their_o answer_n will_v be_v that_o they_o intend_v not_o a_o disinherison_n of_o the_o heir_n but_o that_o the_o estate_n shall_v descend_v and_o go_v to_o their_o heir_n with_o the_o same_o freedom_n it_o descend_v or_o come_v to_o they_o but_o i_o will_v not_o be-mistaken_o for_o i_o intend_v only_o a_o three_o part_n to_o descend_v for_o the_o reason_n aforesaid_a but_o now_o let_v we_o examine_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o law_n aforesaid_a and_o where_o the_o inconvenience_n lie_v the_o reason_n be_v that_o it_o be_v against_o the_o purity_n and_o absoluteness_n of_o a_o fee-simple_n not_o to_o have_v such_o dispose_n power_n where_o lie_v the_o inconvenience_n that_o it_o be_v against_o a_o maxim_n of_o law_n nothing_o of_o prejudice_n either_o to_o the_o public_a or_o to_o any_o private_a or_o particular_a person_n and_o then_o examine_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o other_o side_n why_o such_o a_o tenant_n in_o fee-simple_n shall_v have_v power_n only_o to_o dispose_v of_o two_o part_n and_o leave_v the_o three_o to_o descend_v to_o his_o heir_n because_o it_o will_v agree_v with_o the_o intention_n of_o the_o ancestor_n and_o likewise_o prevent_v the_o begger_n of_o the_o heir_n a_o thing_n too_o common_a with_o profuse_a and_o prodigal_a ancestor_n in_o these_o day_n so_o that_o i_o conceive_v it_o be_v evident_a to_o you_o that_o the_o inconvenience_n lie_v on_o this_o side_n and_o whether_o it_o be_v better_a to_o continue_v a_o maxim_n without_o reason_n or_o to_o alter_v it_o upon_o good_a ground_n i_o leave_v to_o the_o consideration_n of_o our_o sage_n and_o of_o this_o only_a thus_o much_o the_o next_o thing_n i_o have_v to_o treat_v of_o be_v common_a recovery_n concerning_o which_o i_o shall_v propound_v this_o short_a case_n and_o question_n tenant_n in_o tail_n with_o remainder_n over_o suffer_v a_o common_a recovery_n whether_o this_o in_o law_n or_o conscience_n aught_o to_o bind_v the_o issue_n in_o tail_n and_o theremainder_n over_o it_o be_v true_a that_o through_o custom_n and_o long_a continuance_n this_o be_v now_o become_v the_o common_a assurance_n of_o the_o land_n and_o i_o be_o not_o ignorant_a that_o this_o point_n receive_v a_o full_a resolution_n by_o the_o other_o judge_n in_o marie_n portingtons_n case_n in_o my_o lord_n cook_n ten_o book_n that_o such_o recovery_n be_v good_a and_o bind_a not_o only_o to_o the_o issue_n in_o tail_n but_o those_o in_o remainder_n likewise_o yet_o i_o hope_v a_o man_n may_v now_o with_o freedom_n dispute_v it_o since_o all_o conscionable_a honest_a man_n that_o ever_o i_o meet_v with_o oppose_v it_o and_o i_o dare_v say_v that_o policy_n and_o private_a interest_n first_o make_v this_o conveyance_n lawful_a or_o at_o least_o to_o seem_v so_o and_o be_v that_o in_o the_o discourse_n of_o this_o case_n it_o will_v be_v necessary_a to_o know_v what_o the_o law_n be_v before_o the_o stat._n of_o 13._o e._n 1._o of_o intail_v and_o the_o mischief_n of_o that_o law_n which_o cause_v the_o make_n of_o that_o stat._n for_o a_o remedy_n it_o will_v not_o be_v amiss_o if_o i_o cite_v the_o stat._n wherein_o we_o shall_v find_v both_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o the_o mischief_n and_o the_o remedy_n and_o than_o it_o will_v be_v easy_a to_o judge_v whether_o the_o mischief_n against_o which_o the_o act_n of_o 13._o e._n 1._o be_v provide_v do_v not_o still_o continue_v by_o common_a recovery_n notwithstanding_o the_o remedy_n but_o before_o i_o cite_v the_o stat._n i_o can_v but_o put_v you_o in_o mind_n that_o it_o have_v be_v desire_v and_o propose_v by_o some_o in_o print_n who_o either_o never_o read_v the_o say_a stat._n or_o do_v not_o well_o understand_v it_o that_o the_o say_a stat._n may_v be_v take_v away_o the_o mischief_n at_o the_o common_a law_n revive_v and_o the_o remedy_n suppress_v all_o that_o i_o shall_v say_v to_o such_o be_v that_o that_o law_n if_o we_o will_v believe_v our_o judge_n and_o sage_n of_o the_o law_n be_v make_v by_o very_o sage_a and_o wise_a man_n and_o therefore_o we_o ought_v to_o judge_v it_o to_o be_v make_v upon_o very_o good_a ground_n and_o reason_n and_o so_o not_o to_o be_v repeal_v without_o better_a reason_n but_o i_o need_v say_v no_o more_o for_o i_o doubt_v not_o you_o will_v find_v upon_o the_o read_n of_o it_o that_o it_o be_v make_v upon_o solid_a and_o profound_a reason_n and_o so_o not_o to_o be_v alter_v
