people_n estate_n be_v at_o any_o time_n determine_v which_o they_o can_v never_o be_v able_a to_o renew_v we_o pluck_v the_o stool_n from_o under_o their_o foot_n and_o throw_v they_o with_o that_o

to_o lord_n of_o waste_v or_o tenement_n to_o see_v their_o land_n and_o inheritance_n dispose_v perpetual_o from_o their_o own_o possession_n into_o the_o tenure_n and_o occupation_n of_o other_o person_n answer_n but_o i_o answer_v that_o a_o work_n be_v in_o hand_n for_o the_o general_a good_a we_o must_v either_o follow_v the_o current_n of_o general_a acceptance_n or_o sit_v down_o hopeless_a of_o success_n for_o shall_v these_o distribution_n either_o for_o the_o present_a or_o any_o future_a time_n be_v fineable_a or_o determinable_a the_o vulgar_a will_v distaste_v the_o

second_o though_o it_o may_v be_v that_o a_o tenant_n upon_o determination_n of_o his_o estare_fw-la may_v leave_v it_o and_o inhabit_v elsewhere_o yet_o he_o must_v needs_o leave_v his_o land_n behind_o he_o and_o so_o little_a good_a will_v his_o new_a inheritance_n do_v he_o to_o be_v a_o nonresident_a to_o it_o that_o for_o certain_a he_o will_v be_v enforce_v to_o let_v or_o sell_v the_o

rather_o think_v and_o so_o it_o will_v prove_v that_o such_o will_v be_v the_o love_n of_o tenant_n to_o their_o old_a tenure_n for_o their_o new_a improvement_n sake_n that_o the_o mutual_a amity_n
