have_v be_v contradictory_n to_o his_o own_o and_o if_o there_o have_v be_v any_o such_o thing_n as_o that_o the_o law_n in_o this_o point_n have_v be_v several_o take_v in_o so_o very_o short_a a_o

be_v the_o same_o in_o this_o case_n which_o it_o be_v in_o glanvile_n time_n because_o as_o littleton_n tell_v we_o in_o his_o 271_o section_n gift_n in_o free-marriage_n be_v by_o the_o common_a

which_o they_o turn_v the_o estate_n that_o pass_v by_o those_o gift_n in_o feesimple_n into_o a_o estate_n tail_n all_o inheritance_n be_v feesimple_n before_o the_o say_a statute_n so_o that_o in_o

several_a place_n as_o also_o glanvile_n chief_a justice_n of_o england_n who_o live_v in_o the_o same_o time_n that_o amicia_n do_v and_o you_o also_o allege_v that_o you_o have_v find_v a_o

do_v conceive_v the_o common_a law_n where_o not_o alter_v by_o parliament_n be_v the_o same_o at_o this_o day_n that_o it_o be_v former_o and_o therefore_o my_o lord_n coke_n on_o littleton_n tell_v we_o pag._n 115._o b._n that_o it_o be_v a_o maxim_n of_o the_o law_n that_o whatsoever_o be_v at_o the_o common_a law_n and_o be_v not_o oust_v or_o take_v away_o by_o any_o statute_n remain_v still_o i_o may_v thence_o argue_v that_o if_o it_o have_v ever_o be_v at_o the_o common_a law_n that_o a_o man_n may_v have_v give_v land_n or_o service_n in_o libero_fw-la maritagio_fw-la with_o a_o bastard_n or_o one_o that_o be_v not_o of_o the_o blood_n that_o it_o will_v be_v lawful_a to_o do_v so_o still_o because_o that_o part_n of_o the_o law_n be_v not_o oust_v or_o take_v away_o by_o any_o statute_n but_o a_o man_n can_v do_v so_o now_o and_o therefore_o the_o common_a law_n never_o be_v that_o a_o man_n may_v give_v land_n or_o service_n with_o a_o bastard_n in_o free_a marriage_n or_o to_o one_o that_o be_v not_o of_o the_o blood_n so_o that_o those_o place_n which_o you_o have_v cite_v do_v not_o prove_v that_o the_o common_a law_n at_o this_o day_n do_v vary_v from_o what_o it_o be_v in_o former_a age_n in_o any_o particular_a but_o only_o that_o it_o be_v take_v to_o be_v otherwise_o in_o those_o day_n and_o it_o be_v but_o just_a like_o some_o case_n in_o our_o report_n which_o have_v at_o several_a time_n be_v adjudge_v direct_o contrary_a to_o each_o other_o but_o notwithstanding_o that_o the_o law_n be_v still_o the_o same_o but_o that_o i_o may_v come_v as_o near_o you_o as_o i_o can_v i_o shall_v acknowledge_v that_o though_o the_o common_a law_n be_v ever_o the_o same_o where_o not_o alter_v by_o parliament_n yet_o in_o former_a age_n they_o do_v in_o some_o particular_n take_v the_o law_n to_o be_v otherwise_o then_o they_o now_o do_v and_o if_o you_o can_v prove_v that_o they_o do_v so_o in_o this_o case_n of_o free_a marriage_n it_o will_v take_v off_o much_o of_o the_o strength_n of_o this_o argument_n because_o that_o ancient_a deed_n and_o grant_n according_a to_o what_o my_o lord_n coke_n on_o littleton_n say_v fol._n 8._o b._n at_o the_o bottom_n be_v to_o be_v expound_v as_o the_o law_n be_v take_v to_o be_v at_o the_o time_n of_o the_o grant_n but_o this_o be_v so_o far_o from_o make_v against_o my_o opinion_n that_o i_o think_v it_o do_v add_v very_o much_o strength_n thereto_o for_o if_o it_o have_v be_v take_v in_o former_a age_n that_o land_n may_v have_v be_v give_v in_o free_a marriage_n with_o a_o bastard_n or_o one_o not_o of_o the_o blood_n it_o certain_o will_v sometime_o or_o other_o have_v be_v so_o observe_v by_o some_o of_o the_o sage_n of_o the_o law_n for_o where_o the_o law_n have_v be_v take_v in_o one_o age_n after_o one_o manner_n and_o in_o another_o age_n after_o another_o manner_n it_o be_v so_o remarkable_a that_o it_o can_v not_o pass_v unobserved_a by_o all_o as_o to_o what_o you_o

be_v express_o say_v with_o any_o woman_n of_o his_o kindred_n and_o that_o for_o these_o reason_n first_o because_o though_o such_o kind_n of_o expression_n seem_v to_o be_v universal_a and_o without_o any_o exception_n at_o all_o yet_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v so_o large_o take_v but_o shall_v be_v expound_v so_o as_o may_v agree_v with_o the_o law_n of_o that_o kingdom_n or_o nation_n to_o which_o they_o particular_o do_v relate_v and_o for_o this_o i_o shall_v give_v you_o a_o example_n out_o of_o scripture_n itself_o in_o the_o fourteen_o chapter_n of_o deuteronomy_n and_o the_o twenty_o six_o verse_n there_o be_v a_o liberty_n give_v to_o the_o jew_n in_o some_o case_n and_o at_o some_o of_o their_o feast_n to_o eat_v whatsoever_o their_o soul_n lust_v after_o and_o whatsoever_o their_o soul_n desire_v and_o yet_o this_o be_v not_o to_o be_v expound_v universal_o of_o all_o meat_n whatsoever_o in_o case_n they_o desire_v the_o same_o but_o must_v be_v mean_v only_o of_o such_o meat_n as_o be_v legal_o clean_a and_o allow_v they_o to_o eat_v by_o their_o law_n and_o thus_o when_o we_o also_o say_v that_o any_o man_n that_o have_v money_n enough_o may_v buy_v land_n when_o he_o please_v it_o shall_v not_o be_v understand_v of_o any_o man_n whatsoever_o for_o a_o traitor_n or_o a_o jew_n or_o one_o that_o be_v convict_v of_o felony_n or_o a_o alien_n can_v purchase_v land_n in_o england_n but_o it_o shall_v be_v understand_v of_o one_o that_o be_v by_o law_n enable_v so_o to_o do_v and_o so_o in_o like_a manner_n the_o word_n cum_fw-la alia_fw-la
