to_o be_v set_v aside_o by_o this_o will._n i_o have_v nothing_o further_a to_o consider_v in_o this_o case_n nor_o be_v we_o to_o make_v presumption_n and_o then_o to_o make_v inference_n from_o

for_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o court_n be_v whether_o upon_o the_o debate_n of_o this_o cause_n there_o be_v sufficient_a ground_n in_o equity_n for_o this_o court_n to_o interpose_v in_o

to_o the_o earl_n before_o this_o deed_n in_o this_o deed_n and_o after_o this_o deed_n by_o letter_n and_o other_o thing_n signify_v his_o care_n of_o my_o lord_n lansdown_n as_o one_o he_o be_v

issue-male_n and_o all_o this_o to_o signify_v nothing_o beside_o the_o know_a kindred_n the_o apparent_a obligation_n and_o merit_n of_o my_o lord_n of_o bath_n sure_o if_o all_o this_o be_v consider_v the_o duke_n honour_n be_v as_o much_o concern_v on_o this_o side_n as_o on_o the_o other_o to_o approve_v himself_o sincere_a in_o all_o these_o solemn_a transaction_n will_v he_o own_v he_o as_o his_o near_a kinsman_n and_o the_o most_o deserve_a of_o his_o blood_n and_o all_o the_o while_n have_v a_o secret_a purpose_n in_o the_o last_o act_n of_o his_o life_n to_o make_v a_o will_n by_o which_o he_o will_v set_v aside_o all_o he_o have_v profess_v to_o do_v for_o he_o and_o by_o leave_v this_o deed_n and_o will_n with_o he_o leave_v only_o so_o much_o in_o his_o hand_n as_o shall_v put_v he_o into_o a_o chargeable_a suit_n for_o nothing_o therefore_o upon_o the_o whole_a i_o think_v there_o be_v great_a reason_n to_o conclude_v that_o the_o duke_n do_v not_o certain_o mean_a to_o do_v this_o last_o act_n as_o what_o he_o will_v have_v to_o stand_v against_o so_o much_o former_o do_v the_o other_o way_n but_o i_o rather_o think_v the_o evidence_n be_v strong_a to_o persuade_v any_o one_o that_o the_o make_n of_o this_o last_o will_n be_v to_o satisfy_v another_o purpose_n and_o make_v his_o own_o condition_n easy_a at_o home_n but_o my_o opinion_n as_o to_o the_o judicial_a part_n of_o this_o case_n which_o i_o thus_o happen_v to_o be_v of_o be_v the_o strong_a in_o i_o because_o of_o the_o authority_n of_o two_o case_n which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v express_v in_o point_n and_o those_o be_v the_o case_n of_o wynne_n and_o roberts_n and_o fry_n and_o porter_n in_o the_o case_n of_o wynne_n and_o roberts_n there_o be_v proof_n of_o a_o very_a great_a surprise_n upon_o the_o man_n whereby_o he_o be_v induce_v to_o make_v a_o will_n and_o to_o disinherit_v his_o child_n of_o who_o he_o be_v before_o very_o fond_a and_o who_o be_v marry_v into_o a_o very_a honourable_a family_n and_o to_o break_v a_o settlement_n solemn_o make_v before_o all_o this_o matter_n be_v charge_v in_o the_o bill_n and_o prove_v but_o not_o withstand_v this_o the_o court_n declare_v they_o will_v give_v no_o relief_n but_o if_o they_o can_v expect_v any_o they_o must_v go_v to_o law_n and_o at_o last_o it_o be_v end_v only_o by_o a_o bill_n in_o parliament_n the_o court_n say_v try_v it_o at_o law_n a_o will_n or_o no_o will_n and_o do_v not_o expect_v the_o chancery_n shall_v make_v man_n will_n or_o set_v they_o aside_o if_o legal_o make_v

porter_n case_n one_o of_o the_o great_a reason_n why_o the_o court_n deny_v relief_n there_o be_v that_o it_o be_v a_o controversy_n between_o two_o voluntary_a conveyance_n and_o there_o that_o side_n that_o have_v the_o advantage_n at_o law_n aught_o to_o keep_v it_o and_o it_o be_v without_o precedent_n to_o relieve_v in_o any_o such_o case_n so_o say_v i_o in_o this_o case_n we_o have_v no_o precedent_n of_o relief_n in_o any_o such_o as_o this_o now_o before_o we_o we_o must_v not_o say_v this_o court_n be_v unlimited_a unbounded_a by_o any_o rule_n it_o be_v no_o doubt_n limit_v
