emption_n by_o descent_n or_o conquest_n and_o as_o it_o be_v betwixt_o the_o man_n and_o his_o beast_n so_o at_o least_o it_o must_v be_v allow_v to_o be_v betwixt_o a_o king_n and_o his_o people_n if_o a_o king_n will_v treat_v they_o froward_o make_v no_o due_a provision_n for_o their_o good_a but_o will_v treat_v they_o arbitrary_o just_a as_o he_o will_v and_o that_o because_o he_o will_v
