the_o thing_n and_o article_n aforesaid_a be_v of_o effect_n and_o force_v in_o the_o law_n as_o well_o to_o those_o which_o be_v general_o name_v tenant_n and_o their_o heir_n as_o those_o which_o

of_o may_n in_o the_o year_n of_o the_o reign_n of_o edward_n the_o three_o after_o the_o conquest_n thirty_o three_o now_o by_o the_o testimony_n of_o ancient_a witness_n upon_o record_n in_o the_o

upon_o that_o deed_n for_o they_o have_v the_o several_a opinion_n of_o mr._n hale_o now_o one_o of_o the_o justice_n of_o his_o highness_n court_n of_o common_a plea_n and_o a_o honourable_a member_n of_o parliament_n sir_n robert_n berkley_n and_o mr._n serjeant_n maynard_n not_o acquaint_v any_o of_o they_o with_o the_o other_o opinion_n because_o they_o desire_v to_o ground_v a_o certainty_n of_o the_o validity_n of_o the_o say_a deed_n in_o law_n and_o the_o chief_a question_n which_o be_v put_v to_o they_o be_v whether_o the_o deed_n do_v debar_v the_o late_a king_n of_o improvement_n as_o he_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o manor_n to_o which_o their_o several_a judgement_n be_v give_v that_o it_o do_v mr._n hale_v give_v it_o under_o his_o hand_n in_o writing_n yet_o extant_a thus_o i_o

reason_n 1._o because_o the_o lord_n can_v enclose_v against_o those_o that_o be_v name_v and_o consequent_o there_o can_v be_v no_o improvement_n against_o any_o and_o 2._o that_o which_o he_o say_v he_o do_v principal_o rely_v upon_o be_v because_o it_o be_v a_o real_a discharge_n of_o the_o waste_n of_o that_o liberty_n of_o improvement_n which_o the_o statute_n give_v he_o and_o though_o tenant_n be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a name_n of_o purchase_n at_o this_o day_n in_o point_n of_o interest_n it_o be_v in_o point_n of_o discharge_n matth._n hale_o sir_n robert_n berkley_n give_v his_o
