to_o this_o and_o i_o be_o willing_a to_o consider_v they_o both_o first_o that_o if_o it_o be_v unjust_a to_o turn_v they_o out_o it_o be_v as_o unjust_a not_o to_o restore_v the_o old_a proprietor_n who_o have_v be_v so_o long_o keep_v out_o of_o his_o estate_n second_o that_o there_o be_v no_o injury_n do_v to_o the_o present_a possessor_n because_o he_o be_v to_o be_v reprize_v for_o his_o loss_n as_o to_o the_o first_o of_o these_o i_o shall_v not_o at_o present_a meddle_v with_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o lose_v their_o estate_n nor_o touch_v upon_o the_o ground_n and_o occasion_n of_o their_o forfeit_v their_o interest_n in_o they_o be_v sensible_a that_o neither_o the_o time_n nor_o the_o place_n will_v admit_v a_o discourse_n of_o this_o nature_n i_o shall_v therefore_o

side_n if_o we_o restore_v the_o old_a proprietor_n we_o injure_v the_o present_a possessor_n if_o we_o do_v do_v not_o we_o injure_v the_o old_a proprietor_n my_o lord_n it_o be_v my_o humble_a

purchaser_n have_v more_o justice_n on_o his_o side_n than_o the_o old_a proprietor_n for_o he_o have_v both_o law_n and_o equity_n on_o his_o side_n he_o have_v the_o law_n on_o his_o side_n by_o two_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o the_o king_n letter_n patent_n and_o he_o have_v the_o equity_n by_o his_o purchase_n money_n whereas_o the_o proprietor_n have_v the_o law_n against_o he_o and_o nothing_o but_o equity_n to_o pretend_v to_o and_o i_o hope_v your_o lordship_n will_v never_o think_v it_o reasonable_a to_o relieve_v a_o bare_a equitable_a right_n against_o a_o purchaser_n that_o
