soever_o it_o be_v and_o so_o they_o be_v both_o in_o law_n and_o conscience_n to_o see_v the_o place_n well_o supply_v and_o by_o the_o statute_n of_o dissolution_n as_o they_o do_v enjoy_v the_o right_n so_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o provide_v for_o the_o church_n and_o where_o they_o be_v parochial_a to_o see_v that_o there_o be_v a_o fix_a incumbent_n with_o a_o competent_a maintenance_n which_o the_o law_n always_o take_v a_o particular_a care_n of_o ii_o it_o be_v time_n now_o to_o consider_v the_o precedent_n which_o have_v be_v produce_v to_o show_v that_o these_o bond_n of_o resignation_n be_v not_o against_o law_n the_o first_o be_v of_o jones_n and_o laurence_n 8_o jac._n a_o bond_n be_v give_v to_o resign_v the_o benefice_n he_o be_v present_v to_o within_o three_o month_n upon_o request_n and_o it_o be_v allege_v in_o court_n that_o it_o be_v a_o simoniacal_a contract_n 248._o and_o against_o law_n on_o the_o other_o side_n it_o be_v say_v that_o there_o do_v not_o appear_v any_o simony_n upon_o the_o condition_n and_o therefore_o judgement_n be_v give_v for_o the_o bond._n but_o a_o writ_n of_o error_n be_v bring_v in_o the_o exchequer_n chamber_n and_o the_o principal_a error_n insist_v on_o be_v that_o this_o condition_n be_v against_o law_n but_o the_o judge_n of_o the_o common_a bench_n and_o baron_n of_o the_o exchequer_n hold_v that_o the_o obligation_n and_o condition_n be_v good_a enough_o for_o a_o man_n may_v bind_v himself_o to_o resign_v upon_o good_a and_o valuable_a reason_n without_o any_o colour_n of_o simony_n as_o to_o be_v oblige_v to_o resign_v in_o case_n of_o plurality_n or_o nonresidence_n or_o if_o his_o son_n be_v at_o age._n but_o if_o it_o have_v be_v for_o a_o lease_n of_o the_o glebe_n or_o tithe_n or_o a_o sum_n of_o money_n that_o have_v be_v simony_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o the_o judgement_n be_v affirm_v to_o this_o precedent_n i_o answer_v that_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o judge_n be_v insufficient_a for_o it_o come_v to_o this_o the_o bond_n be_v good_a because_o there_o may_v be_v good_a reason_n for_o it_o may_v it_o not_o be_v say_v on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o bond_n be_v naught_o because_o there_o may_v be_v a_o very_a bad_a reason_n for_o it_o and_o a_o bond_n that_o may_v be_v turn_v to_o so_o very_o ill_a uses_n it_o can_v but_o seem_v strange_a to_o i_o that_o the_o judge_n shall_v affirm_v it_o to_o be_v a_o good_a bond._n if_o the_o particular_a reason_n have_v be_v make_v the_o condition_n of_o the_o bond_n they_o may_v have_v judge_v upon_o they_o but_o the_o bond_n be_v general_a and_o no_o condition_n in_o it_o but_o notice_n therefore_o their_o judgement_n must_v be_v that_o a_o bond_n be_v reasonable_a if_o no_o bad_a condition_n appear_v in_o it_o which_o make_v the_o incumbent_n a_o slave_n to_o the_o patron_n and_o overthrow_v the_o just_a right_n and_o liberty_n of_o the_o clergy_n and_o lay_v they_o open_a to_o perjury_n when_o they_o give_v such_o a_o bond_n mere_o to_o obtain_v a_o presentation_n and_o they_o very_o well_o know_v that_o none_o can_v be_v possess_v of_o a_o benefice_n without_o a_o oath_n against_o all_o simoniacal_a contract_n either_o direct_o or_o indirect_o why_o do_v not_o the_o judge_n declare_v that_o it_o be_v simony_n within_o their_o oath_n but_o they_o be_v only_o to_o judge_v of_o the_o law_n and_o how_o can_v they_o judge_v this_o not_o to_o be_v a_o simoniacal_a bargain_n because_o there_o be_v no_o simoniacal_a condition_n in_o it_o but_o what_o be_v a_o simoniacal_a condition_n where_o have_v the_o common_a law_n determine_v it_o and_o by_o what_o rule_n yes_o say_v they_o a_o lease_n for_o tithe_n or_o a_o bargain_n for_o money_n have_v be_v simony_n but_o how_o come_v they_o to_o determine_v that_o no_o other_o contract_n be_v simoniacal_a when_o they_o own_o that_o simony_n be_v not_o under_o their_o cognisance_n do_v they_o ever_o offer_v to_o advise_v with_o the_o civilian_n what_o be_v a_o simoniacal_a contract_n according_a to_o the_o ecclesiastical_a law_n not_o the_o least_o mention_n of_o this_o and_o therefore_o i_o can_v but_o think_v this_o a_o judgement_n without_o sufficient_a reason_n to_o support_v it_o the_o same_o cause_n come_v on_o again_o the_o next_o year_n and_o there_o it_o be_v declare_v that_o it_o be_v not_o simony_n but_o good_a policy_n to_o tie_v he_o to_o resign_v and_o if_o it_o be_v it_o be_v not_o material_a 274._o here_o be_v two_o good_a point_n declare_v 1._o that_o bond_n of_o resignation_n be_v good_a policy_n to_o what_o end_n to_o ensnare_v man_n conscience_n to_o make_v the_o church_n a_o prey_n to_o corrupt_v patron_n to_o keep_v man_n from_o do_v their_o duty_n lest_o they_o shall_v displease_v their_o patron_n if_o this_o be_v good_a policy_n let_v it_o rather_o pass_v for_o that_o than_o for_o good_a law_n 2._o that_o it_o be_v not_o material_a as_o to_o the_o goodness_n of_o the_o bond_n whether_o it_o be_v simony_n or_o not_o then_o it_o seem_v a_o simoniacal_a contract_n hold_v good_a in_o law_n which_o i_o think_v be_v no_o good_a policy_n for_o judge_n to_o declare_v but_o we_o be_v tell_v that_o 15_o jac._n in_o the_o case_n of_o paschal_n and_o clerk_n it_o be_v say_v by_o the_o court_n upon_o evidence_n 2d_o that_o if_o the_o patron_n take_v a_o bond_n of_o resignation_n at_o three_o month_n warning_n it_o be_v simony_n within_o the_o statute_n and_o for_o this_o we_o be_v refer_v to_o the_o roll_n 2051._o i_o wonder_v this_o judgement_n be_v not_o hitherto_o disprove_v if_o the_o roll_n be_v falsify_v and_o if_o not_o here_o be_v judgement_n against_o judgement_n but_o again_o 446._o in_o the_o case_n of_o babington_n and_o wood_n it_o be_v resolve_v on_o the_o same_o ground_n with_o that_o of_o jones_n and_o laurence_n and_o so_o deserve_v no_o new_a consideration_n and_o several_a other_o judgement_n be_v say_v to_o have_v be_v give_v since_o on_o the_o same_o ground_n but_o let_v we_o compare_v this_o case_n with_o such_o as_o have_v be_v adjudge_v to_o be_v simony_n in_o the_o court_n of_o common_a law_n in_o the_o case_n of_o byrte_n and_o manning_n 42●_n the_o court_n hold_v that_o if_o a_o man_n enter_v into_o a_o contract_n to_o procure_v a_o presentation_n in_o consideration_n of_o the_o marriage_n of_o his_o son_n that_o have_v be_v a_o simoniacal_a contract_n why_o be_v not_o a_o bond_n of_o resignation_n as_o much_o simony_n as_o a_o consideration_n of_o marriage_n when_o both_o be_v make_v equal_o the_o condition_n of_o obtain_v a_o presentation_n if_o a_o simoniacal_a contract_n be_v make_v 90._o and_o the_o person_n present_v not_o at_o all_o privy_a to_o it_o he_o be_v to_o incur_v the_o penalty_n of_o it_o but_o if_o a_o man_n be_v privy_a to_o a_o bond_n of_o resignation_n in_o order_n to_o a_o presentation_n he_o shall_v not_o be_v guilty_a and_o yet_o in_o the_o one_o case_n a_o man_n swear_v with_o a_o good_a conscience_n which_o i_o think_v he_o can_v in_o the_o other_o in_o the_o case_n of_o winchcomb_n and_o pulleston_n 165._o it_o be_v declare_v to_o be_v simony_n to_o purchase_v the_o next_o presentation_n when_o the_o incumbent_a be_v still_o alive_a but_o in_o a_o fit_a of_o the_o strangury_n and_o yet_o this_o be_v not_o within_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o law_n for_o the_o live_n be_v not_o actual_o void_a therefore_o such_o act_n as_o be_v against_o the_o design_n and_o reason_n of_o the_o law_n be_v forbid_v by_o it_o and_o the_o like_a be_v affirm_v by_o justice_n hutton_n in_o the_o case_n of_o sheldon_n and_o bret._n 63._o in_o a_o late_a judgement_n in_o chancery_n bond_n of_o resignation_n at_o pleasure_n to_o patron_n by_o their_o clerk_n 399._o be_v damn_v in_o equity_n when_o any_o ill_a use_n be_v make_v of_o they_o but_o why_o shall_v any_o such_o bond_n be_v allow_v in_o law_n which_o be_v liable_a to_o such_o ill_a uses_n i_o conclude_v with_o the_o word_n of_o my_o lord_n coke_n b._n that_o the_o common_a law_n do_v detest_v simony_n and_o all_o corrupt_a bargain_n for_o presentation_n to_o any_o benefice_n and_o its_o design_n be_v that_o a_o fit_a person_n for_o the_o discharge_v of_o the_o cure_n shall_v be_v present_v free_o without_o expectation_n of_o any_o thing_n how_o then_o can_v bond_n of_o resignation_n be_v agreeable_a to_o law_n have_v thus_o dispatch_v the_o main_a point_n against_o all_o general_n bond_n which_o be_v make_v the_o condition_n of_o obtain_v a_o presentation_n there_o remain_v only_o some_o quaere_n to_o be_v resolve_v 1._o suppose_v a_o bond_n be_v require_v only_o to_o tie_v man_n up_o to_o do_v their_o duty_n and_o to_o keep_v they_o from_o nonresidence_n i_o answer_v 1._o that_o the_o patron_n be_v to_o blame_v to_o pitch_v
