would trust him therewith that then within short space after he would truely make payment aswell of the hundred pounds as also of the said two hundred poundes vpon which earnest intreatie the said C. D. being a man of a verie good nature and easily led by such as he any way conceaued or thought well of was contented to satisfie his request But yet forasmuch as the said A. B. had before that time taken but small regard concerning the keeping of his dayes vpon the single obligation aforesaid the said C. D. then thinking to deale more substancially with him then before demaunded a recognizance for the said summe of an hundred poundes so then to be lent without which he was vtterly vnwilling to trust him any further Whereunto the said A. B. assented and became bound accordingly in a Recognizance of two hundred markes with condition for the true payment of an hundred pounds which is the recognizance in the saide bill of complaint mencioned For discharge of which recognizance the said A. B. tooke no greater regard then before he had done for payment of the said single Obligation And therefore the said C. D. at the last three yeares at the least being then past after the forfaiture of the said Recognizance perceiuing the carelesnesse of the said A. B. asked aduise of some of his friends what course he were best to take for the obtayning of the saide seuerall summes of money By whom he was aduised to put the saide Recognizance rather then the Obligation aforesayd in suit aswell for speedy end of suit in the same as also that thereby it was thought the saide A. B. would the rather seeke meanes to make satisfaction aswell of the one debt as of the other But he meaning nothing lesse nor regarding the saide suit suffered the same to proceede till some parcell of his lande was extended and so the saide C. D. was faine after three yeares forbearance of the said summe of one hundred poundes as aforesaid and after he had spend more then twentie poundes in suites and rewardes in obteyning the says extent to accept onely twentie markes by the yeare till the sayd two hundred markes being the principall and penaltie were payed vnto hym so that the forbearance of the saide summe accompted together wyth the charges in suit great losse of time in following the same and rewardes gyuen to Shirifes and Baylifes or euer any the saide landes might be extended The saide C. D. sustayned so great losse as by the circumstances of that which before hath been shewed doth euidently approue that he was vtterly discouraged to attempt any more suits against the saide A. B. but rested still in hope that at one time or other he should obtaine meanes in quiet sort without suit in lawe to get satisfaction also of the said summe of c. which hath bin the reason onely why the sayde E. D. did not put the sayd Obligation in suit so long time without that that to the knowledge of this Defendant there was euer any defeasans made vpon the said Obligation or that any such defeasans by casuall meanes is come into the hands of this Defendant as in the said Bill is vntruely alleaged And without that that the said A. B. by himselfe or his officers as by the premisses manifestly appeareth did make payment of the said debt or any part thereof which the said defendant is the rather throughly perswaded of as well because she was well acquainted with the dealings of her said husband as also because at the time of the debts of her said husband he lying in extremity called this defendant vnto him and said that he had carefully gathered together sundry bonds and Obligations which at sundry times had beene made vnto him for diuers summes of money and yet in trueth they were paied and discharged and those bondes and Obligations he had put in a boxe by themselues and named them Billes which Obligations he willed this defendant to cancell or deliuer to such persons as were the Obligors and in any wise not to demaunde any debt vpon any of them And further he also openly said that all the residue of the bonds and Obligations remaining in other boxes which he then also named were due and owing vnto him In the which of the said boxes the said Obligation of 200. li. was found neither is it to be thought that any officer of the said A. B. would deale so lightly as to paye the money due vpon the said Obligation beeing but single and without penalty without either acquittance or the bond it selfe redeliuered or cancelled Or that the said A. B. himselfe would haue allowed of any such payment vpon any his officers accompts And without that that the said A. B. did at any time allow any maner of consideration for the forbearaunce of any summe of money due by him to the said C. D. as also is vntruely alleaged And without that that the said C. D. did put the same Recognisaunce in suite presently after the forfeiture thereof for the same was forborne three yeares after as is before declared And without that that it is likely that the saide C. D. did acknowledge himselfe satisfied of all those seuerall summes of twenty markes which should make vp the two hundred markes vpon the extend aforesaid when as he had recouered the whole debts due to him by the said A. B. but onely without that that the said A. B. to the knowledge of this defendant did signifie by his letters his displeasure towardes the sayde C. D. as also is vntruely set downe And without that that any other thing materiall in the lawe c. As in the other To cause one to shew his Lease whereby he holdeth c. MOst humbly complayning c. A.

the Chauncery as the case may fall out And the law in the highest degree being thus properly taken is wrongfully termed by the common sort of men wrong in the highest degree for to speake generally and at a word it is the iustest reason that may be whether Naturall or Rationall so farre is it from being to be rightfully taken wrong vntill it be stretched and as it were set vpon tenture bookes to be drawen to some inconuenient circumstance of the fact as when a man doth couenant or giue his word to do some dishonest fact or hurtfull and dangerous to the common wealth In which case if a man should wrest this rule of Law Keepe thy word in steede of doing right in the highest degree he should commit iniustice in the highest degree Not because the Law hath any fault in it selfe but because through his error and cauelling with the Law he worketh wickednes not iudging a right the circumstances of the fact wherein Law and right standeth Li. Si. F. de pactis Law in the highest degree improperly taken is so termed when by an ouer rigorous and hard interpretation it is drawen to inconuenient kinds of facts or by colourable arguments is drawen to frustrate the good meaning of the Law L. Inciuile cum L. seq F. de Legibus Many examples hereof we haue in the Law As it is a Law that no man shall be forced against his will to commence or maintaine any suit or action Now put the case that I. S. is wrongfully impleaded by I. N. who hath framed a cunning action full of glorious shewe against him the said I. S. But I. N. finding in conclusion that he is not able to proue and make good his action becommeth nonsuit I. S. praieth remedy of the Iudges against this wrongfull vexation of I. N. and he the said I. N. in defence of his wrongful vexation vrgeth this rule of Law that no man is compellable to maintain an action Shall he be heard in this case No saith Iustinian this false glose of I. N. is not to be suffered or borne withal This tearme or word of Law in the highest degree being thus taken we may wel say that Law in the highest degree is wrong in the highest degree For the more subtilly that a man doth argue the more authorities he heapeth togither to inforce such a law so much the more and greater wrong and iniustice shall he doe Of Equitie EQuitie is that which is commonly called equall and good sometimes Sect 3. equall and iust and sometime equall iust Lib. 1. Pen. F. de Iusticia iure I. si ius F. si certum petatur Arist termeth it Epieices and other terme it Epieician which is as much to say a mittigation or moderation of the Lawe written in some circumstance either of the things themselues of the persons or of the times Law saith Donatus is that that maketh all things straight and not pliable to th one nor other Equitie is that that dispenseth with many points of the Law Oldendorpius saieth that Equitie is nothing else but a sound or vpright will or iudgement of an honest man nothing craftie or subtill so measuring out to euery man that that is his that in the meane while noe man is wronged as appeareth most elegantly in I. bona fides I. Incurrit F. depos Equitie as some other say is a reasonable measure conteining in it selfe a fit proportion rigor so that it differeth from Law in this that Law is a determinate sentence set downe according to the rules of the law But Equitie is a certaine proportion and allay vpon good occasions setting on side the common rules of the Law and so they cal it a ruled kind of Iustice allayed with the sweetnes of mercie Equitie is diuersly termed in the Law sâ—metime it is very significantly called a Conueniency because it ministreth amongest men a fit proportion aunswerable to the persons the matters the places and the times Sometimes plain dealing is called Equitie which is opposite to the dealing of man by nice points of the Law Sometime it is taken for naturall Iustice or the Law of Nature Sometime it is taken for Law that is opposite to forged and deuised Law Sometime it is taken for Religion c. And to be short Equitie is the correction or amendement of a good Law which is defectiue in some part by reason of the generalitie of it Of the diuision of Equitie EQuitie is twofold written and not written for Equitie may be vsed Sect 4. both in Schooles and places of Iudgement two waies The one by taking good heed how and in what sort Princes and Lawiers haue obserued Equitie in making and setting downe of lawes appointed to be rules and squares of mens actions So that if at any time any case falleth out which is in all points aunswerable to the Law void of any different circumstances which might require some change or alteration of the Law they may accordingly frame their iudgements being sure and out of doubt that the Law of Equitie is alreadie chalked out to them An other way Equitie is to bee prattised in these particuler facts which daily fall out and haue no certain line and square set out for them in the Lawes alreadie made so that we must bee forced to deliuer our Iudgements in them according to certain circumstances applyed as neerely as we can to the principles of our Law And herein standeth the greatest vse of Equitie most fit for common weales And therefore we may well call it an vnwritten Equitie not because we are at our liberties to define and determine of it without due regard had to the Lawe written but because it taketh some libertie not to bind it selfe to the generall Rules of the Law Of the efficient cause of Equitie GOD is the efficient cause of Equitie who hath so disposed of the Sect 5. nature of mankind that we are not in any wise able to set downe a certaine rule for fuâ—ure things and yet hath bestowed vpon vs so much knowledge as whereby we may frame certain generall rules of honest life which may serue for directions in all particuler actions and facts daily and hourely falling out amongst men if they be duly and carefully examined by the rule of Equitie which hath hereye cast vpon all ordinarie circumstances Of the material cause of Equitie THe Law of Nature the Law of Nations and good maners are Sect 6. the materiall cause of Equitie for a well minded man and of sound Iudgement will make of these three an holsome and verie medicinable mixture for any state and common wealth But the matter where about this Equitie must occupie and busie her selfe are the affaires of men infinite as they fall out For right or Law will bee rightly ministred if as matters fall out the circumstances thereof duely considered the ministers of the Law do frame their Iudgements accordingly Of the formal
cause of Equitie THe formal cause of Equitie is the matching and leueling of facts Sect ' 7. falling out and the circumstances thereof with the rules of the Law as buildings are framed to Carpenters lines and squares Of the final cause of Equitie THe final cause of Equity or effect is to keepe an equalitie amoÌ„gst Sect ' 8. the state of men who are at much odds squares amongest themselues to the end the common wealth may be preserued in safety which standeth for the most part in righteous iudgements Why Equitie is sometimes compared to a ruler NOt vnfitly is Equitie tearmed the rule of maners for as by a Sect ' 9. rule the faults of a building are discouered so doth Equitie Iudge a right both of the written Law and also of all mens actions and behauiours And therefore such as are ministers of Iustice applie and frame their Iudgements after the square and rule of good and egall that is to say of Gods Law and the Lawes of Nature Against which Lawes what Iudgements soeuer be giuen cannot be but vniust and vnrighteous How Equitie and Clemencie differ THere is a difference betweene Equitie and Clemencie for Equitie Sect ' 10. is alwaies most firmely knit to the wil of the Law which way soeuer it bends whether to clemencie or to seueritie But clemencie is onely proper to the Prince or those Magistrates that haue like power of administration of Iustice as Princes haue Of the difference betweene Equitie and strict Law STrict Law Equitie differ herein that strict Law doth set downe Sect ' 11. in a generall sort what it enacteth is seuere and not to be moued one way or other it taketh order for things once for all the grounds principles which it bringeth forth are vniuersall full of seuerity and sharpnes from which rules it will not start asâ—â—e no not the breadth of an heire But Equity is fitly compared to a Shoomakers shop that is well furnished with all sorts and maner of lastes for mens feete where each man may be sure to finde one last or other that shall fit him be he great or â—â—all It is not also vnfitly compared to an Apothecaries shop stored with al kind of drugges fit for all the maledies diseases of men Which drugs notwithstanding in case they should be vnskilfull compounded togither would in stead of healing worke present death to the patient that should receiue them For it requireth the industrie and exquisite art of a good Phisition to make a right composition discerning and tempering by iust proportions good venims from euill In like sort in affaires both publike and priuate equity doth particularly carefully examine the causes the times the circumstances the sorts and differences of persons and matters and by former iudgement giuen in like cases gathereth and frameth an absolute and perfect deciding and determining the matter presently in question and sute And S. German to the like effect saith Equitie is a righteousnes tempered with mercie which considereth all the particuler circumstances of the deed Doct. Stu. Lib. 1. cap. 16. This Equitie saieth he must alwaies be obserued in euery Law of man and in euery Maxime or generall rule thereof for that mens acts are so diuers and infinite that it is impossible to make any general Law which may aptly meete with euery particuler act and not faile in some special case Therefore Law-makers do foresee things which may oft happen in so much as strictly to obserue the word and tenor of the law were in some cases both against Iustice and the comon wealth Wherefore in such cases we must stick fast to that which reason and Iustice require which is that Equitie may mittigate Rigorem iuris which equitie is no other thing theÌ„ an exception of the Law of God or of the Law of Reason from the general principles of mans positiue law not agreeing with them in some particularitie which exception is inwardly implyed in euery general ground or Maxime of the Law And yet taketh not away the very right but substituteth right in steed of that which by the onely letter of the Law seemeth to be right and is not Neither may we therefore accuse the Law of crueltie which as is said generally taken is good of it selfe and not cruel though it reach not fully to euery particuler circumstance of mens actions And therefore if a Law were made that no man vnder the paine of death should open the gates of a Citie before the Sun rising yet he who for sauing the Citizens flying from their Enemies to the same gates openeth them before that time offendeth not thintent and equitie of that Law D. S. Lib. 1. cap. 6. Or if a Statute were made that whosoeuer doth such an Act should be put to death yet if one of Non sanae memoriae or an infant of tender yeres which wanteth discretion do such an act they shall not therefore suffer death Or if a Statute were made that whosoeuer receiueth or aydeth with meate drinke or otherwise I. S. an offendor knowing his offence shal be accessary thereunto as a felon yet if his wife knowing his offence receyue and ayde him she shall not thereby be a Felon for in the generalitie of such Statutes Madmen Infants and his owne wife are not inteÌ„ded to be included but excepted by implication By lâ— which we may gather that the outward words of the Law onely are not the law but the inward sence and meaning thereof For our Lawes as all other Lawes haue two parts that is to say the flesh and soule The letter resembleth the flesh the intent and reason the soule Nam ratio legis est anima legis The Law may be compared to a Nut whereof the letter resembleth the shell the sence the kernell And as the profit of the nut is not in the shell but in the kernell so the fruit of the Law is not in the letter but in the sence And as he which resteth vpon the shel leeseth the fruit of the nut so he which staieth vpon the letter wanteth the profit of the law for the letter is sometimes larger and sometimes narrower then the intent which Equitie regardeth Plow 9. b 465. a And Bracton of Equitie writeth thus aequitas est rerum conuenientia quae in paribus causis paria considerat iura omnia bene coequiparat Et dicitur aequitas quasi aequalitas vertitur in rebus id est in dictis factis hominum lib. 1. cap. 4.
