serve_v not_o where_o the_o traverse_n be_v to_o be_v take_v by_o a_o stranger_n and_o therefore_o it_o shall_v seem_v that_o he_o shall_v have_v it_o by_o and_o by_o for_o he_o have_v cause_n to_o have_v a_o ouster_n le_fw-fr main_a forthwith_o and_o that_o with_o the_o mean_a issue_n and_o profit_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o reason_n that_o the_o nonage_n of_o a_o third_o person_n

he_o can_v never_o have_v if_o his_o title_n be_v not_o first_o find_v by_o office_n and_o therefore_o not_o like_o the_o case_n where_o a_o stranger_n traverse_v with_o the_o king_n that_o be_v to_o

before_o but_o in_o the_o other_o case_n who_o so_o ever_o shall_v claim_v the_o land_n as_o heir_n his_o highness_n have_v right_a to_o seize_v in_o the_o right_n of_o the_o say_a heir_n and_o to_o

traverse_v with_o a_o other_o heir_n during_o the_o king_n possession_n this_o shall_v not_o be_v until_o he_o that_o be_v first_o find_v heir_n by_o thoffice_n come_v of_o age_n because_o until_o that_o time_n the_o land_n ought_v to_o remain_v in_o the_o king_n hand_n and_o then_o he_o to_o have_v livery_n but_o whether_o he_o that_o be_v first_o find_v heir_n shall_v tarry_v for_o thage_n of_o he_o that_o be_v last_o find_v heir_n i_o have_v say_v my_o mind_n therein_o before_o in_o the_o title_n of_o enterpleder_n but_o where_o a_o stranger_n be_v to_o traverse_v he_o shall_v not_o
