express_a assignation_n of_o the_o right_n of_o tithe_n under_o the_o levitical_a law_n be_v as_o himself_o word_n it_o pag._n 51._o to_o the_o priest_n for_o the_o time_n be_v and_o common_a reason_n

assignation_n of_o tithe_n to_o the_o priest_n under_o the_o levitical_a law_n be_v for_o and_o during_o the_o life_n of_o that_o priesthood_n if_o i_o may_v so_o express_v it_o and_o have_v that_o assignment_n be_v make_v void_a while_o that_o priesthood_n live_v there_o have_v then_o indeed_o be_v need_n of_o a_o express_a repeal_n but_o see_v it_o be_v not_o make_v void_a in_o the_o life_n tim●_n of_o that_o priesthood_n but_o continue_v in_o force_n as_o long_o as_o that_o priesthood_n live_v the_o death_n or_o dissolution_n of_o that_o priesthood_n do_v vocate_v the_o assignation_n in_o course_n and_o there_o be_v no_o more_o reason_n to_o expect_v a_o express_a repeal_n of_o it_o than_o there_o will_v be_v if_o the_o parliament_n shall_v make_v a_o law_n to_o continue_v for_o
