any_o such_o title_n there_o be_v a_o show_n i_o confess_v in_o that_o statute_n 18._o e._n 3_o that_o they_o sshoulde_n be_v justice_n because_o of_o the_o power_n to_o hear_v and_o determine_v

the_o warden_n of_o the_o pear_n be_v to_o have_v one_o commission_n by_o themseluse_n for_o the_o keep_v of_o the_o peace_n &_o that_o they_o and_o other_o only_a at_o time_n needful_a be_v to_o
