that_o which_o be_v set_v down_o by_o law_n in_o the_o seven_o &_o nine_o year_n of_o king_n edward_n the_o fowrth_n &_o in_o the_o eleven_o and_o fourteen_o of_o king_n henry_n the_o fowrth_n that_o

can_v not_o be_v prejudicial_a to_o the_o king_n of_o scotland_n right_a first_o for_o that_o it_o be_v a_o common_a and_o general_a rule_n of_o the_o law_n of_o england_n that_o no_o rule_n or_o

the_o croun_n be_v privilege_v in_o many_o point_n above_o private_a heritage_n the_o second_o reason_n be_v for_o that_o the_o demand_n &_o title_n of_o a_o croun_n can_v not_o be_v comprehend_v under_o the_o word_n of_o the_o foresay_a statute_n against_o alien_n and_o that_o for_o two_o respect_n first_o for_o that_o the_o croun_n can_v not_o proper_o be_v call_v a_o inheritance_n of_o

of_o god_n and_o second_o for_o that_o the_o statute_n mean_v plain_o of_o inheritance_n by_o descent_n for_o otherwise_o as_o be_v say_v a_o alien_n may_v hold_v by_o purchase_n but_o the_o croun_n be_v a_o thing_n incorporate_v &_o descend_v not_o according_a to_o the_o course_n of_o other_o private_a inheritance_n but_o rather_o go_v by_o succession_n as_o other_o incorporation_n do_v in_o sign_n whereof_o no_o king_n can_v by_o law_n avoid_v his_o letter_n patent_n by_o reason_n of_o his_o none-age_n as_o other_o common_a heir_n under_o age_n do_v but_o he_o be_v ever_o presume_v to_o be_v of_o full_a age_n in_o respect_n of_o his_o croun_n and_o as_o a_o parson_n deane_n or_o other_o head_n incorporate_a though_o he_o be_v a_o alien_n may_v inherit_v or_o demand_v land_n in_o england_n for_o his_o incorporation_n notwithstanding_o the_o former_a statute_n so_o much_o more_o the_o inheritor_n to_o the_o croun_n though_o he_o be_v bear_v out_o of_o the_o dominion_n of_o england_n may_v notwithstanding_o the_o say_a statute_n succeed_v just_o to_o the_o kingdom_n the_o three_o reason_n be_v that_o in_o the_o statute_n itself_o there_o be_v express_a exception_n of_o infant_n du_fw-fr roy_fw-fr by_o which_o word_n according_a to_o the_o use_n of_o they_o in_o the_o french_a language_n wherein_o this_o statute_n be_v write_v as_o also_o of_o the_o word_n

allegiance_n may_v have_v or_o demand_v heritage_n as_o heir_n to_o their_o parent_n or_o other_o also_o the_o king_n child_n in_o the_o first_o degree_n need_v no_o such_o exception_n because_o the_o word_n of_o the_o statute_n debar_v those_o that_o shall_v be_v bear_v of_o parent_n not_o be_v of_o the_o king_n allegiance_n can_v no_o wise_n be_v prejudicial_a to_o they_o but_o rather_o to_o those_o of_o the_o king_n offspring_n who_o in_o degree_n far_o remoove_v might_n be_v bear_v in_o foreign_a dominion_n as_o sundry_a of_o king_n edward_n the_o three_o offspring_n be_v come_v of_o his_o son_n marry_v in_o diverse_a country_n for_o who_o behoof_n especial_o it_o seem_v that_o this_o exception_n be_v add_v by_o he_o to_o the_o former_a statute_n and_o if_o this_o exception_n of_o infant_n du_fw-fr roy_fw-fr be_v understand_v only_o in_o respect_n of_o private_a heritage_n that_o may_v fall_v to_o they_o in_o which_o only_o sense_n it_o seem_v to_o have_v relation_n to_o the_o word_n of_o the_o statute_n make_v mention_n of_o heritage_n within_o the_o king_n allegiance_n how_o much_o more_o be_v the_o privilege_n contain_v therein_o due_a to_o the_o inheritor_n of_o the_o

by_o the_o common_a course_n of_o our_o old_a common_a law_n there_o be_v no_o such_o stop_n against_o alien_n and_o that_o if_o the_o statute_n make_v in_o king_n edward_n the_o three_o day_n will_v
