3._o but_o concern_v the_o three_o there_o be_v yet_o more_o difficulty_n those_o son_n that_o inherit_v their_o father_n sin_n by_o possess_v the_o price_n of_o their_o father_n soul_n that_o be_v by_o enjoy_v the_o good_n get_v by_o their_o father_n rapine_n may_v certain_o quit_v the_o inheritance_n of_o the_o curse_n if_o they_o quit_v the_o purchase_n of_o the_o sin_n that_o be_v if_o they_o pay_v their_o father_n debt_n his_o debt_n of_o contract_n and_o his_o debt_n of_o justice_n his_o debt_n of_o intercourse_n and_o his_o debt_n of_o oppression_n i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o every_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o restore_v all_o the_o land_n which_o his_o ancestor_n have_v unjust_o snatch_v for_o when_o by_o law_n the_o possession_n be_v establish_v though_o the_o grandfather_n enter_v like_o a_o thief_n yet_o the_o grandchild_n be_v bonae_fw-la fidei_fw-la possessor_n and_o may_v enjoy_v it_o just_o and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v great_a and_o necessary_a for_o the_o avoid_v eternal_a suit_n and_o perpetual_a disease_n of_o rest_n and_o conscience_n because_o there_o be_v no_o estate_n in_o the_o world_n that_o can_v be_v enjoy_v by_o any_o man_n honest_o if_o posterity_n be_v bind_v to_o make_v restitution_n of_o all_o the_o wrong_n do_v by_o their_o progenitor_n but_o although_o the_o child_n of_o the_o far_o remove_v line_n be_v not_o oblige_v to_o restitution_n yet_o other_o be_v and_o some_o for_o the_o same_o some_o for_o other_o reason_n 1_o son_n be_v tie_v to_o restore_v what_o their_o father_n do_v usurp_v or_o to_o make_v agreement_n and_o a_o acceptable_a recompense_n for_o it_o if_o the_o case_n be_v visible_a evident_a and_o notorious_a and_o the_o oppress_a party_n demand_v it_o because_o in_o this_o case_n the_o law_n have_v not_o settle_v the_o possession_n in_o the_o new_a tenant_n or_o if_o a_o judge_n have_v it_o be_v by_o injury_n and_o there_o be_v yet_o no_o collateral_a accidental_a title_n transfer_v by_o long_a possession_n as_o it_o be_v in_o other_o case_n and_o therefore_o if_o the_o son_n continue_v to_o oppress_v the_o same_o person_n who_o his_o father_n first_o injure_v he_o may_v well_o expect_v to_o be_v the_o heir_n of_o his_o father_n curse_n as_o well_o as_o of_o his_o curse_a purchase_n 2._o whether_o by_o law_n and_o justice_n or_o not_o the_o person_n be_v oblige_v nay_o although_o by_o all_o the_o solemnity_n of_o law_n the_o unjust_a purchase_n be_v establish_v and_o that_o in_o conscience_n the_o grandchild_n be_v not_o oblige_v to_o restitution_n in_o their_o own_o particular_n but_o may_v continue_v to_o enjoy_v it_o without_o a_o new_a sin_n yet_o if_o we_o see_v a_o curse_n descend_v upon_o the_o family_n for_o the_o old_a oppression_n do_v in_o the_o day_n of_o our_o grandfather_n or_o if_o we_o probable_o suspect_v that_o to_o be_v the_o cause_n then_o if_o we_o make_v restitution_n we_o also_o most_o certain_o remove_v the_o curse_n because_o we_o take_v away_o the_o matter_n upon_o which_o the_o curse_n be_v ground_v i_o do_v not_o say_v we_o sin_n if_o we_o do_v not_o restore_v but_o that_o if_o we_o do_v not_o we_o may_v still_o be_v punish_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v clear_a and_o visible_a for_o as_o without_o our_o fault_n in_o many_o case_n we_o may_v enjoy_v those_o land_n which_o our_o forefather_n get_v unjust_o so_o without_o our_o fault_n we_o may_v be_v punish_v for_o they_o for_o as_o they_o have_v transmit_v the_o benefit_n to_o we_o it_o be_v but_o reasonable_a we_o shall_v suffer_v the_o appendant_a calamity_n if_o we_o receive_v good_a we_o must_v also_o venture_v the_o evil_a that_o come_v along_o with_o it_o res_fw-la transit_fw-la cum_fw-la svo_fw-la onere_fw-la all_o land_n and_o possession_n pass_v with_o their_o proper_a burden_n and_o if_o any_o of_o my_o ancestor_n be_v a_o tenant_n and_o a_o servant_n and_o hold_v his_o land_n as_o a_o villain_n to_o his_o lord_n his_o posterity_n also_o must_v do_v so_o though_o accidental_o they_o become_v noble_a the_o case_n be_v the_o same_o if_o my_o ancestor_n enter_v unjust_o there_o be_v a_o curse_n and_o a_o plague_n that_o be_v due_a to_o that_o oppression_n and_o injustice_n and_o that_o be_v the_o burden_n of_o the_o land_n and_o it_o descend_v all_o along_o with_o it_o and_o although_o i_o by_o the_o consent_n of_o law_n be_o a_o just_a possessor_n yet_o i_o be_o oblige_v to_o the_o burden_n that_o come_v with_o the_o land_n i_o be_o indeed_o another_o kind_n of_o person_n than_o my_o grandfather_n he_o be_v a_o usurper_n but_o i_o be_o a_o just_a possessor_n but_o because_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o land_n this_o be_v but_o a_o accidental_a change_n therefore_o i_o still_o be_o liable_a to_o the_o burden_n and_o the_o curse_n that_o descend_v with_o it_o but_o the_o way_n to_o take_v off_o the_o curse_n be_v to_o quit_v the_o title_n and_o yet_o a_o man_n may_v choose_v it_o may_v be_v to_o loose_v the_o land_n will_v be_v the_o big_a curse_n but_o if_o it_o be_v not_o the_o way_n be_v certain_a how_o you_o may_v be_v rid_v of_o it_o *_o there_o be_v a_o custom_n among_o the_o greek_n that_o the_o child_n of_o they_o that_o die_v of_o consumption_n or_o dropsy_n all_o the_o while_o their_o father_n body_n be_v burn_v in_o their_o funeral_n pile_n do_v sit_v with_o their_o foot_n in_o cold_a water_n hope_v that_o such_o a_o lustration_n and_o ceremony_n will_v take_v off_o the_o lineal_a and_o descend_a contagion_n from_o the_o child_n i_o know_v not_o what_o cure_n they_o find_v by_o their_o superstition_n but_o we_o may_v be_v sure_a that_o if_o we_o wash_v not_o our_o foot_n but_o our_o hand_n of_o all_o the_o unjust_a purchase_n which_o our_o father_n have_v transmit_v to_o we_o their_o hydropic_a thirst_n of_o wealth_n shall_v not_o transmit_v to_o we_o a_o consumption_n of_o estate_n or_o any_o other_o curse_n but_o this_o remedy_n be_v only_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o injury_n or_o oppression_n not_o in_o the_o case_n of_o other_o sin_n because_o other_o sin_n be_v transient_a and_o as_o the_o guilt_n do_v not_o pass_v upon_o the_o child_n so_o neither_o do_v the_o exterior_a and_o permanent_a effect_n and_o therefore_o in_o other_o sin_n in_o case_n they_o do_v derive_v a_o curse_n it_o can_v be_v remove_v as_o in_o the_o matter_n of_o unjust_a possession_n it_o may_v be_v who_o effect_n we_o may_v so_o order_v it_o shall_v no_o more_o stick_n to_o we_o then_o the_o guilt_n of_o our_o father_n personal_a action_n the_o sum_n be_v this_o as_o kingdom_n use_v to_o expiate_v the_o fault_n of_o other_o by_o act_n of_o justice_n and_o as_o church_n use_v to_o remove_v the_o accurse_a thing_n from_o stick_v to_o the_o community_n of_o the_o faithful_a and_o the_o sin_n of_o christian_n from_o be_v require_v of_o the_o whole_a congregation_n by_o excommunicate_v and_o censure_v the_o delinquent_a person_n so_o the_o heir_n and_o son_n of_o family_n be_v to_o remove_v from_o their_o house_n the_o curse_n descend_v from_o their_o father_n loin_n by_o 1._o act_n of_o disavow_v the_o sin_n of_o their_o ancestor_n 2._o by_o pray_v for_o pardon_n 3._o by_o be_v

case_n do_v occur_v in_o which_o we_o find_v that_o innocent_a son_n be_v punish_v the_o remedy_n i_o have_v already_o discourse_v of_o be_v for_o such_o child_n who_o have_v in_o some_o manner_n or_o other_o contract_v and_o derive_v the_o sin_n upon_o themselves_o but_o if_o we_o inquire_v how_o those_o son_n who_o have_v no_o intercourse_n or_o affinity_n with_o their_o father_n sin_n or_o who_o father_n sin_n be_v so_o transient_a that_o no_o benefit_n or_o effect_n do_v pass_v upon_o their_o posterity_n how_o they_o may_v prevent_v or_o take_v off_o the_o curse_n that_o lie_v upon_o the_o
