we_o a_o estate_n of_o four_o hundred_o pound_n a_o year_n in_o the_o country_n to_o serve_v for_o a_o little_a community_n which_o we_o will_v divide_v into_o four_o small_a parish_n adjoin_v

sufficient_a to_o keep_v its_o inhabitant_n with_o all_o the_o necessary_n of_o life_n and_o not_o much_o more_o if_o the_o earth_n be_v equal_o divide_v it_o will_v do_v that_o at_o the_o least_o the_o four_o part_n of_o the_o estate_n which_o be_v untouched_a let_v we_o suppose_v it_o to_o be_v for_o the_o rent_n and_o maintenance_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o manor_n and_o his_o noble_a

will_n of_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o manor_n wherefore_o they_o have_v the_o care_n of_o the_o husband_n of_o the_o whole_a estate_n but_o be_v to_o yield_v the_o four_o part_n of_o the_o increase_n
