for_o the_o word_n in_o that_o act_n only_o describe_v the_o ching_n to_o be_v forfeit_v and_o not_o the_o estate_n therein_o and_o be_v not_o of_o the_o same_o import_n as_o the_o word_n of_o the_o

that_o penal_a statute_n such_o as_o this_o be_v be_v always_o construe_v strict_o and_o most_o beneficial_o for_o the_o party_n accuse_v which_o will_v the_o rather_o be_v so_o in_o this_o case_n because_o the_o parliament_n do_v not_o attaint_v sir_n john_n danvers_n but_o design_v favour_n to_o he_o which_o they_o refuse_v to_o other_o in_o the_o like_a circumstance_n as_o to_o the_o second_o question_n quest_n 2_o it_o be_v answer_v that_o the_o new_a estate_n tail_n create_v by_o the_o fine_a and_o deed_n in_o 1647_o be_v not_o forfeit_v by_o the_o act_n of_o pain_n and_o penalty_n because_o the_o old_a estate_n tail_n can_v neither_o be_v extinguish_v nor_o merge_v in_o the_o reversion_n in_o fee-simple_a which_o all_o will_v allow_v and_o the_o fine_a rather_o bar_v the_o issue_n to_o claim_v the_o entail_v than_o transfer_v it_o to_o the_o connusee_fw-fr so_o that_o the_o old_a estate_n remain_v in_o effect_n and_o the_o use_v declare_v upon_o the_o fine_a be_v execute_v the_o same_o moment_n and_o leave_v no_o estate_n in_o the_o connusee_fw-fr forfeitable_fw-fr hence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o new_a use_n to_o sir_n john_n danvers_n and_o the_o heir_n of_o his_o body_n be_v derive_v out_o of_o the_o old_a entail_v that_o be_v as_o large_a and_o equal_a with_o the_o new_a one_o and_o which_o be_v not_o forfeit_v and_o not_o out_o of_o the_o reversion_n in_o fee_n that_o be_v own_v to_o be_v forfeit_v it_o have_v be_v object_v object_n that_o unless_o this_o manor_n of_o dauntsey_n be_v forfeit_v by_o the_o act_n of_o pain_n and_o
