you_o conceive_v there_o be_v no_o weight_n at_o all_o in_o it_o whereof_o i_o be_o so_o sensible_a that_o i_o conceive_v it_o not_o evince_v nor_o do_v those_o ancient_a historian_n take_v upon_o

my_o first_o reason_n my_o reply_n i_o do_v confess_v i_o urge_v it_o but_o for_o a_o probable_a reason_n and_o yet_o you_o say_v it_o be_v as_o strong_a as_o the_o first_o reason_n then_o you_o may_v have_v do_v well_o to_o have_v answer_v the_o first_o better_a whereunto_o i_o be_o sure_a you_o have_v make_v no_o substantial_a answer_n as_o yet_o wherein_o i_o appeal_v to_o all_o indifferent_a and_o judicious_a reader_n who_o shall_v read_v this_o book_n and_o for_o the_o probability_n of_o this_o you_o say_v that_o the_o historian_n take_v not_o upon_o they_o to_o give_v a_o account_n of_o all_o the_o earl_n child_n but_o the_o heir_n of_o randle_n but_o do_v you_o find_v that_o they_o have_v leave_v out_o any_o of_o his_o legitimate_a child_n except_o this_o who_o you_o suppose_v legitimate_a and_o then_o you_o tell_v i_o mr._n cambden_n have_v mention_v amicia_n though_o not_o among_o the_o coheir_n yet_o without_o the_o brand_n of_o a_o bastard_n you_o know_v well_o he_o be_v but_o of_o very_o late_o stand_v and_o not_o a_o historian_n contemporary_a with_o amicia_n and_o so_o you_o and_o i_o do_v now_o mention_v she_o and_o then_o you_o tell_v i_o over_o again_o which_o i_o have_v before_o answer_v that_o those_o judge_n and_o herald_n that_o have_v see_v your_o deed_n of_o which_o i_o have_v hear_v but_o i_o be_o sure_a i_o yet_o know_v not_o who_o they_o

for_o who_o i_o have_v ever_o have_v a_o great_a esteem_n as_o a_o diligent_a searcher_n of_o antiquity_n all_o which_o you_o again_o and_o again_o affirm_v to_o be_v of_o your_o opinion_n that_o

person_n you_o mention_v never_o hear_v what_o be_v to_o be_v say_v against_o that_o opinion_n whereas_o it_o be_v but_o equal_a that_o in_o consultation_n of_o opinion_n both_o side_n shall_v show_v

often_o tell_v you_o i_o will_v have_v you_o confute_v i_o with_o reason_n not_o opinion_n for_o one_o man_n may_v be_v of_o one_o opinion_n and_o another_o man_n of_o another_o opinion_n but_o it_o

this_o i_o say_v it_o will_v not_o be_v difficult_a at_o all_o to_o give_v a_o reason_n and_o much_o more_o easy_a then_o to_o give_v a_o reason_n why_o amice_fw-la shall_v be_v no_o bastard_n because_o sir_n ralph_n manwaringe_n be_v sometime_o subscribe_v before_o the_o baron_n of_o cheshire_n the_o reason_n i_o give_v be_v this_o that_o ancient_o in_o those_o age_n the_o justice_n be_v

you_o say_v it_o be_v possible_a that_o the_o earldom_n be_v then_o entail_v on_o the_o heir_n male_n only_o but_o will_v you_o argue_v upon_o possibility_n to_o prove_v a_o thing_n de_fw-fr

ever_o move_v for_o it_o the_o true_a reason_n be_v that_o her_o title_n be_v not_o good_a but_o have_v she_o be_v legitimate_a it_o be_v more_o than_o probable_a she_o will_v have_v look_v after_o

but_o the_o king_n give_v it_o to_o he_o as_o one_o who_o by_o descent_n have_v most_o right_a to_o it_o although_o he_o be_v not_o the_o direct_a heir_n male_a of_o earl_n hugh_n but_o of_o another_o
