unto_o you_o the_o dignity_n and_o estimation_n of_o copyholders_n by_o the_o antiquity_n and_o allowance_n of_o time_n and_o by_o the_o law_n and_o statute_n of_o this_o realm_n it_o appear_v by_o

by_o divers_a wrest_v to_o make_v no_o diversity_n between_o tenure_n in_o villeinage_n and_o tenure_n by_o copy_n of_o court_n role_n or_o base_a tenure_n wherein_o whatsoever_o interpretation_n may_v be_v make_v master_n fitz_n herbert_n meaning_n be_v very_o plain_a and_o the_o book_n of_o the_o old_a tenor_n be_v to_o be_v far_o otherwise_o understand_v as_o also_o i_o suppose_v all_o
