be_v he_o that_o have_v land_n or_o tenemente_n whether_o it_o be_v by_o purchase_n or_o by_o discente_fw-la to_o he_o and_o to_o his_o heir_n for_o ever_o for_o if_o a_o man_n will_v purchase_v

a_o state_n of_o inheritance_n do_v pass_v for_z in_o testamentꝭ_n the_o will_n and_o intent_n of_o the_o testatour_n be_v to_o be_v ponder_v and_o not_o the_o prescripte_n word_n of_o the_o law_n also_o these_o term_n in_o the_o law_n frank_a marriage_n &_o frank_a almoyne_n do_v include_v in_o they_o word_n of_o inherytaunce_n and_o therefore_o if_o i_o gyve_v land_n to_o a_o man_n with_o

do_v imply_v word_n of_o inheritance_n but_o now_o it_o be_v to_o be_v see_v who_o be_v say_v &_o mannes_z he_o ire_n in_o the_o law_n you_o shall_v therefore_o know_v that_o my_o brother_n or_o

land_n in_o fee_n simple_a and_o dye_v without_o issue_n of_o my_o body_n my_o father_n can_v not_o be_v my_o heir_n but_o my_o father_n brother_n or_o sister_n shall_v and_o than_o if_o my_o uncle_n
