they_o be_v few_o at_o this_o day_n then_o heretofore_o yet_o certain_a it_o seem_v that_o some_o roman_a emperor_n authorize_v one_o magistrate_n or_o lieutenant_n without_o any_o companion_n to_o command_v all_o other_o magistrate_n of_o the_o empire_n and_o to_o he_o all_o governor_n and_o magistrate_n do_v appeal_v which_o magistrate_n they_o call_v praefectus_fw-la praetorio_fw-la true_a it_o be_v that_o at_o the_o beginning_n he_o be_v of_o no_o great_a quality_n than_o captain_n of_o the_o legion_n praetorian_a as_o seius_n strabo_n under_o augustus_n and_o sejanus_n under_o

and_o judge_v of_o all_o question_n and_o cause_n whatsoever_o by_o which_o occasion_n that_o office_n be_v give_v unto_o man_n learn_v in_o the_o law_n as_o martian_a under_o otho_n papinian_n

roman_n ancient_o use_v and_o touch_v their_o authority_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o know_v that_o a_o magistrate_n be_v a_o officer_n have_v power_n to_o command_v in_o the_o common_a

may_v therefore_o be_v reasonable_o call_v illustrissimi_fw-la chief_v in_o the_o king_n absence_n for_o sure_a it_o be_v that_o in_o presence_n of_o the_o king_n all_o power_n of_o magistrate_n and_o
