the_o promiser_n a_o sufficient_a discharge_n from_o the_o say_a obligation_n which_o consideration_n of_o what_o use_v it_o will_v be_v in_o the_o present_a case_n will_v in_o the_o due_a place_n

wife_n be_v under_o 2._o the_o law_n and_o 4._o under_o the_o power_n of_o her_o husband_n and_o so_o be_v not_o svi_fw-la juris_fw-la nor_o can_v bind_v herself_o by_o vow_n oath_n promise_v or_o otherwise_o without_o the_o privity_n and_o consent_n of_o her_o husband_n which_o consent_n we_o may_v presume_v this_o gentlewoman_n never_o have_v the_o promise_n be_v of_o that_o nature_n that_o it_o have_v be_v not_o only_a immodesty_n but_o even_o madness_n at_o all_o to_o have_v seek_v it_o and_o it_o be_v certain_a from_o the_o 3._o law_n of_o god_n by_o moses_n to_o the_o equity_n whereof_o christian_n be_v still_o bind_v because_o it_o be_v found_v upon_o right_a reason_n and_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n that_o every_o vow_n and_o promise_v make_v by_o a_o person_n that_o of_o right_n have_v not_o power_n to_o make_v it_o be_v de_fw-fr jure_fw-la nullum_fw-la altogether_o void_a from_o the_o first_o instant_n and_o bind_v the_o party_n no_o more_o than_o if_o it_o never_o have_v be_v make_v §_o 6._o if_o any_o scruple_n shall_v arise_v from_o this_o consideration_n that_o albeit_o the_o promise_v make_v by_o the_o wife_n in_o her_o husband_n life_n time_n bind_v she_o not_o without_o his_o consent_n so_o long_o as_o he_o live_v because_o she_o be_v all_o that_o while_n under_o his_o power_n vet_n after_z that_o she_o be_v loose_v from_o the_o law_n of_o her_o husband_n by_o his_o death_n it_o shall_v thenceforth_o bind_v she_o because_o she_o than_o become_v svi_fw-la juris_fw-la i_o say_v this_o make_v no_o difference_n at_o all_o in_o the_o case_n for_o this_o be_v a_o general_a rule_n that_o what_o ju_o act_n soever_o have_v a_o nullity_n in_o it_o at_o the_o first_o when_o it_o be_v do_v can_v by_o any_o succeed_a tract_n of_o time_n grow_v to_o be_v of_o force_n as_o if_o a_o young_a scholar_n shall_v be_v institute_v to_o a_o benefice_n be_v not_o of_o lawful_a year_n or_o a_o young_a heir_n make_v a_o sale_n of_o his_o land_n during_o minority_n the_o institution_n and_o the_o sale_n as_o they_o be_v both_o void_a at_o the_o beginning_n so_o they_o shall_v continue_v void_a as_o well_o after_o the_o clerk_n be_v of_o lawful_a year_n and_o the_o heir_n at_o full_a age_n as_o before_o so_o that_o to_o judge_v of_o the_o validity_n of_o any_o vow_n promise_v or_o covenant_n respect_n must_v be_v have_v to_o eodem_fw-la that_o very_a time_n wherein_o it_o be_v make_v and_o to_o the_o present_a condition_n of_o the_o person_n at_o that_o time_n and_o not_o to_o any_o time_n or_o condition_n before_o or_o after_o if_o then_o there_o be_v indeed_o a_o nullity_n in_o this_o gentlewoman_n vow_n at_o the_o time_n when_o she_o make_v it_o there_o be_v a_o nullity_n in_o it_o still_o and_o if_o it_o be_v indeed_o of_o no_o force_n to_o bind_v she_o then_o neither_o be_v it_o of_o any_o force_n to_o bind_v she_o now_o §_o 7._o but_o after_o due_a ponder_v of_o the_o matter_n i_o rather_o think_v that_o there_o be_v not_o a_o nullity_n in_o the_o promise_n at_o the_o first_o neither_o suppose_v it_o have_v be_v right_o qualify_v in_o other_o respect_n be_v it_o void_a upon_o this_o ground_n because_o although_o she_o be_v not_o svi_fw-la juris_fw-la absolute_a it_o be_v sufficient_a yet_o that_o she_o be_v so_o quantum_fw-la ad_fw-la hoc_fw-la for_o a_o person_n that_o be_v under_o the_o power_n of_o another_o have_v yet_o power_n of_o himself_o and_o so_o be_v svi_fw-la juris_fw-la to_o dispose_v of_o all_o such_o thing_n as_o by_o the_o free_a disposal_n whereof_o the_o proper_a right_n of_o he_o under_o who_o power_n he_o be_v be_v no_o way_n prejudice_v but_o in_o whatsoever_o may_v be_v prejudicial_a to_o the_o other_o in_o any_o of_o his_o right_n he_o be_v juris_fw-la alieni_fw-la neither_o may_v dispose_v thereof_o without_o the_o other_o consent_n and_o if_o such_o a_o person_n shall_v make_v a_o vow_n or_o other_o promise_n concern_v any_o of_o those_o thing_n wherein_o he_o be_v svi_fw-la juris_fw-la such_o vow_n or_o promise_n shall_v stand_v good_a and_o be_v not_o void_a though_o possible_o it_o may_v be_v vicious_a in_o other_o respect_n from_o the_o inability_n of_o the_o person_n that_o make_v it_o as_o for_o example_n if_o a_o servant_n shall_v promise_v to_o his_o own_o father_n to_o work_v with_o he_o a_o day_n or_o two_o in_o harvest_n this_o promise_n unless_o his_o master_n consent_n thereunto_o shall_v be_v void_a because_o the_o master_n have_v a_o right_a in_o the_o servant_n work_v to_o which_o right_n it_o will_v be_v prejudicial_a if_o the_o servant_n shall_v dispose_v thereof_o after_o his_o own_o pleasure_n but_o if_o such_o a_o servant_n shall_v promise_v unto_o his_o needy_a father_n to_o relieve_v he_o from_o time_n to_o time_n with_o a_o three_o or_o four_o part_n of_o all_o such_o wage_n as_o he_o shall_v receive_v for_o his_o service_n this_o promise_n shall_v be_v good_a of_o itself_o neither_o shall_v the_o master_n consent_n be_v requisite_a to_o make_v it_o so_o because_o the_o master_n have_v no_o right_a at_o at_o all_o in_o the_o servant_n wage_n wherein_o to_o be_v prejudice_v by_o the_o servant_n dispose_v thereof_o according_a to_o his_o own_o mind_n now_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o husband_n right_a and_o power_n over_o the_o wife_n cease_v together_o with_o his_o life_n as_o the_o apostle_n 3._o express_o teach_v and_o so_o can_v be_v prejudice_v by_o any_o act_n of_o the_o wife_n do_v after_o his_o decease_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o the_o wife_n be_v svi_fw-la juris_fw-la to_o make_v a_o vow_n or_o promise_v during_o her_o husband_n life_n time_n concern_v something_o to_o be_v do_v after_o his_o decease_n in_o case_n she_o overlive_v he_o because_o his_o right_n will_v be_v expire_v before_o the_o performance_n of_o the_o say_a vow_n or_o promise_n be_v due_a as_o to_o give_v instance_n in_o a_o case_n not_o much_o unlike_a to_o this_o in_o question_n a_o wife_n estate_v upon_o her_o marriage_n in_o a_o jointure_n or_o annuity_n for_o her_o life_n of_o a_o 100_o l._n per_fw-la annum_fw-la make_v a_o promise_n in_o her_o husband_n life_n time_n to_o one_o of_o her_o young_a brother_n that_o have_v but_o short_a mean_n to_o allow_v he_o thence_o forward_o out_o of_o the_o say_a estate_n 10_o l._n yearly_a towards_o his_o better_a maintenance_n this_o promise_n be_v void_a unless_o the_o husband_n consent_n because_o the_o performance_n thereof_o will_v prejudice_v he_o in_o that_o right_n which_o he_o have_v during_o his_o own_o life_n in_o the_o revenue_n of_o all_o the_o land_n and_o annuity_n estate_v upon_o the_o wife_n in_o reversion_n but_o if_o such_o a_o wife_n shall_v promise_v to_o her_o say_a brother_n to_o allow_v he_o the_o say_v yearly_a sum_n of_o 10_o l._n after_o the_o decease_n of_o her_o husband_n in_o case_n she_o survive_v he_o this_o promise_n be_v good_a though_o make_v by_o the_o wife_n in_o her_o husband_n life_n time_n and_o without_o his_o consent_n because_o the_o husband_n right_a be_v to_o cease_v before_o the_o promise_n be_v to_o be_v perform_v can_v be_v prejudice_v by_o the_o performance_n thereof_o and_o this_o i_o find_v agreeable_a to_o the_o best_a casuist_n who_o peremptory_a opinion_n it_o be_v that_o alios_fw-la husband_n and_o master_n can_v disannul_v such_o vow_n as_o their_o wife_n and_o servant_n make_v concern_v thing_n to_o be_v perform_v at_o such_o time_n as_o they_o shall_v be_v from_o under_o their_o power_n which_o position_n if_o it_o be_v true_a and_o i_o yet_o see_v no_o reason_n why_o it_o shall_v not_o then_o doubtless_o this_o gentlewoman_n vow_n make_v to_o her_o friend_n though_o in_o the_o life_n time_n and_o without_o the_o consent_n of_o her_o husband_n be_v not_o original_o void_a from_o the_o inability_n to_o make_v it_o upon_o this_o respect_n that_o she_o be_v not_o svi_fw-la juris_fw-la so_o to_o do_v point_n iii_o §_o 8._o but_o
