oftentimes_o the_o first_o choice_n of_o all_o capital_n from_o the_o first_o sort_n of_o set_a hand_n and_o arrogate_v the_o second_o choice_n of_o minum_fw-la letter_n from_o the_o second_o and_o that_o by_o right_a of_o place_n and_o consequent_o by_o option_n of_o choose_v whereupon_o arise_v a_o controversy_n betwixt_o the_o say_a second_o form_n of_o set_a hand_n and_o this_o present_a form_n which_o anon_o it_o behoove_v i_o to_o discuss_v because_o the_o decision_n thereof_o it_o submit_v and_o refer_v unto_o i_o in_o stead_n of_o a_o more_o competent_a judge_n and_o i_o have_v both_o accept_v the_o same_o in_o and_z upon_o i_o and_o under-taken_a to_o pronounce_v definitive_a sentence_n therein_o with_o all_o possible_a diligence_n but_o first_o as_o it_o become_v all_o earthly_a judge_n i_o will_v hear_v both_o the_o party_n the_o principal_a sort_n challenge_v and_o take_v the_o second_o choice_n of_o minum_fw-la letter_n unto_o itself_o because_o it_o have_v ever_o be_v in_o use_n of_o they_o by_o indoubted_a right_n acclaim_v by_o station_n of_o second_o place_n and_o option_n of_o second_o choose_v and_o the_o common_a sort_n allege_v that_o albeit_o those_o letter_n will_v seem_v to_o pertain_v unto_o the_o other_o sort_n by_o the_o same_o pretend_a and_o dissemble_v right_o of_o place_n and_o choose_n yet_o they_o ought_v not_o because_o this_o sort_n have_v be_v clothe_v with_o possession_n thereof_o these_o many_o year_n past_a memory_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o can_v of_o equity_n be_v frustrate_v now_o of_o that_o ancient_a right_n except_o there_o have_v be_v renunciation_n or_o disposition_n make_v thereof_o and_o any_o of_o these_o title_n produce_v for_o instruct_v now_o for_o remove_v of_o these_o question_n and_o debate_n i_o repel_v and_o refute_v the_o last_o alleadgeance_n because_o the_o proponer_n thereof_o be_v not_o able_a to_o prove_v the_o antiquity_n of_o possession_n mention_v therein_o and_o although_o it_o may_v be_v prove_v it_o be_v no_o just_a cause_n to_o take_v away_o inheritable_a right_n and_o therefore_o i_o descearne_v that_o these_o debatable_a letter_n belong_v to_o the_o principal_a sort_n because_o it_o have_v undoubted_a right_n thereunto_o by_o virtue_n of_o second_o place_n and_o second_o choose_v but_o because_o the_o common_a sort_n become_v indigent_a or_o destitute_a of_o minum_fw-la letter_n by_o occasion_n of_o this_o decreet_a which_o i_o can_v not_o eschew_v but_o behove_v to_o pronounce_v according_a to_o justice_n i_o will_v not_o utterlie_o discourage_v nor_o damnify_v it_o but_o have_v a_o charitable_a respect_n thereunto_o and_o the_o rather_o because_o it_o be_v more_o prompt_a and_o needful_a in_o common_a business_n than_o the_o principal_a sort_n itself_o as_o all_o common_a mean_n be_v rather_o than_o special_a mean_n therefore_o wite_v you_o i_o to_o have_v assign_v and_o dispone_v &_o by_o these_o present_n assign_v and_o dispone_v the_o like_a sort_n of_o minum_fw-la letter_n to_o the_o say_v desolate_a form_n and_o that_o by_o double_v of_o such_o letter_n in_o the_o alphabet_n as_o have_v no_o constant_a difference_n from_o those_o which_o be_v late_o questionable_a likewise_o with_o express_a advice_n and_o consent_n of_o either_o sort_n i_o ordain_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v both_o serve_v alike_o with_o all_o that_o sort_n of_o minum_fw-la letter_n as_o well_o debate_v as_o add_v and_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v mutual_a and_o reciprocal_a proportion_n of_o borrow_v and_o lend_v affinity_n peace_n and_o amity_n
