which_o be_v never_o any_o one_o like_o another_o 3_o in_o reconcile_n the_o law_n among_o themselves_o 4._o there_o be_v no_o difficulty_n at_o all_o in_o judge_v of_o any_o case_n whatsoever_o according_a to_o natural_a equity_n 5._o arbitrary_a power_n make_v any_o man_n a_o competent_a judge_n for_o his_o knowledge_n but_o leave_v he_o to_o his_o own_o interest_n which_o oftentimes_o be_v contrary_a to_o justice_n make_v he_o also_o a_o incompetent_a judge_n in_o regard_n that_o he_o may_v be_v partial_a 6._o partiality_n be_v the_o cause_n why_o law_n pretend_v to_o abhor_v arbitrary_a power_n nevertheless_o see_v that_o not_o one_o case_n be_v altogether_o like_o another_o there_o must_v in_o every_o judicatory_a be_v some_o arbitrary_a power_n 7._o paucity_n of_o law_n cause_n arbitrary_a power_n in_o apply_v they_o and_o multiplicity_n of_o law_n cause_n arbitrary_a power_n in_o reconcile_n and_o apply_v they_o too_o 8._o arbitrary_a power_n where_o it_o can_v do_v no_o wrong_n do_v the_o great_a right_n because_o no_o law_n can_v ever_o be_v so_o frame_v but_o that_o without_o arbitrary_a power_n it_o may_v do_v wrong_a 9_o arbitrary_a power_n go_v upon_o the_o interest_n of_o one_o or_o of_o a_o few_o make_v not_o a_o just_a judicatory_a 10._o arbitrary_a power_n go_v upon_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o whole_a people_n make_v a_o just_a judicatory_a 11._o all_o judicatory_n and_o law_n which_o have_v be_v make_v by_o arbitrary_a power_n allow_v of_o the_o interpretation_n of_o arbitrary_a power_n and_o acknowledge_v a_o appeal_n from_o themselves_o to_o it_o 12._o that_o law_n which_o leave_v the_o least_o arbitrary_a power_n to_o the_o chap._n ix_o judge_n or_o judicatory_a be_v the_o most_o perfect_a law_n 13._o law_n that_o be_v the_o few_o plain_a and_o brief_a leave_v the_o least_o arbitrary_a power_n to_o the_o judge_n or_o judicatory_a and_o be_v a_o light_n to_o the_o people_n make_v the_o most_o incorrupt_a government_n 14._o law_n that_o be_v perplex_v intricat_a tedious_a and_o voluminous_a leave_v the_o great_a arbitrary_a power_n to_o the_o judge_n or_o judicatory_a and_o rain_v snare_n on_o the_o people_n make_v the_o most_o corrupt_a government_n 15._o see_v no_o law_n can_v be_v so_o perfect_a as_o not_o to_o leave_v arbitrary_a power_n to_o the_o judicatory_a that_o be_v the_o best_a constitution_n of_o a_o judicatory_a where_o arbitrary_a power_n can_v do_v the_o least_o hurt_n and_o the_o worst_a constitution_n of_o a_o judicatory_a be_v where_o arbitrary_a power_n can_v do_v the_o most_o ill_a 16._o arbitrary_a power_n in_o one_o judge_n do_v the_o most_o in_o a_o few_o judge_n do_v less_o and_o in_o a_o multitude_n of_o judge_n do_v the_o least_o hurt_n 17._o the_o ultimat_fw-la appeal_n from_o all_o inferior_a judicatory_n be_v to_o some_o sovereign_a judge_n or_o judicatory_a 18._o the_o ultimat_fw-la result_n in_o every_o government_n as_o in_o absolute_a monarchy_n the_o monarch_n in_o aristocracy_n or_o aristocratical_a monarchy_n the_o peer_n in_o democracy_n the_o popular_a assembly_n be_v a_o sovereign_a judge_n or_o judicatory_a that_o be_v arbitrary_a 19_o arbitrary_a power_n in_o judicatory_n be_v not_o such_o as_o make_v no_o use_n of_o the_o law_n but_o such_o by_o which_o there_o be_v a_o right_a use_n to_o be_v make_v of_o the_o law_n 20._o that_o judicatory_a where_o the_o judge_n or_o judge_n be_v not_o obnoxious_a to_o partiality_n or_o private_a interest_n can_v make_v a_o wrong_a use_n of_o power_n 21._o that_o judicatory_a that_o can_v make_v a_o wrong_a use_n of_o power_n must_v make_v a_o right_a use_n of_o law_n 22._o every_o judicatory_a consi_v of_o a_o judge_n or_o some_o judge_n without_o a_o jury_n or_o of_o a_o jury_n on_o the_o bench_n without_o any_o other_o judge_n or_o judge_n or_o of_o a_o judge_n or_o judge_n on_o the_o bench_n with_o a_o jury_n at_o the_o bar._n form_n of_o government_n as_o to_o the_o judicial_a part_n be_v thus_o complete_v be_v sum_v up_o in_o the_o three_o follow_a aphorism_n 23._o absolute_a monarchy_n for_o the_o judicial_a part_n of_o the_o form_n admit_v not_o of_o any_o jury_n but_o be_v of_o some_o such_o kind_a as_o a_o cadee_n or_o judge_n in_o a_o city_n or_o as_o we_o say_v in_o a_o hundred_o with_o a_o appeal_n to_o a_o cadaliskar_n or_o a_o judge_n in_o a_o province_n from_o who_o
