propter_fw-la quas_fw-la causas_fw-la rector_n etc._n etc._n the_o bishop_n of_o exeter_n must_v be_v a_o party_n to_o his_o amotion_n and_o it_o may_v seem_v hard_a and_o unreasonable_a that_o the_o founder_n shall_v have_v utter_o cut_v off_o the_o rector_n from_o appeal_n and_o yet_o leave_v a_o door_n open_a for_o every_o fellow_n in_o the_o college_n to_o have_v the_o benefit_n of_o a_o appeal_n beside_o these_o proof_n that_o appeal_n be_v exclude_v which_o be_v ground_v upon_o the_o word_n of_o the_o statute_n themselves_o we_o have_v a_o subsequent_a proof_n of_o what_o we_o assert_v which_o though_o it_o be_v a_o negative_a one_o yet_o in_o this_o case_n be_v as_o forcible_a as_o any_o affirmative_a proof_n whatsoever_o and_o that_o be_v that_o till_o this_o late_a appeal_n in_o mr._n colmer_n case_n there_o never_o be_v any_o appeal_n to_o the_o visitor_n from_o the_o sentence_n of_o the_o rector_n and_o fellow_n subsequent_a practice_n be_v always_o hold_v to_o be_v the_o true_a expositor_n of_o the_o meaning_n of_o a_o law_n they_o that_o live_v near_a to_o the_o time_n when_o it_o be_v make_v be_v reasonable_o suppose_v to_o have_v understand_v the_o intention_n of_o the_o lawgiver_n best_a littleton_n argue_v that_o no_o action_n can_v be_v bring_v upon_o the_o stat._n of_o merton_n b._n because_o it_o be_v never_o see_v or_o hear_v that_o any_o such_o action_n have_v be_v bring_v and_o if_o any_o action_n may_v have_v be_v bring_v it_o shall_v be_v intend_v that_o at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o it_o will_v have_v be_v put_v in_o ure_n upon_o which_o lord_n cook_n say_v 108._o though_o a_o act_n of_o parliament_n can_v by_o non-use_a be_v antiquate_v or_o lose_v his_o force_n yet_o non-use_a may_v expound_v or_o declare_v how_o the_o act_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v so_o we_o find_v in_o dyer_n 376._o a._n that_o a_o writ_n of_o error_n lie_v not_o of_o a_o judgement_n give_v in_o the_o cinque-port_n pro_fw-la eo_fw-la quod_fw-la nullum_fw-la tale_n breve_fw-la in_o registro_fw-la nec_fw-la in_o aliquibus_fw-la praesidentibus_fw-la curiarum_fw-la inveniri_fw-la potuerat_fw-la since_o therefore_o no_o precedent_n of_o such_o a_o appeal_n as_o be_v now_o contend_v for_o can_v be_v show_v it_o must_v be_v understand_v to_o have_v be_v the_o common_a construction_n upon_o the_o statute_n ever_o since_o they_o be_v make_v that_o no_o such_o appeal_n shall_v be_v commence_v i_o shall_v add_v one_o observation_n more_o ground_v upon_o the_o probationer_n oath_n which_o with_o respect_n to_o the_o matter_n in_o hand_n differ_v very_o little_a in_o word_n and_o i_o suppose_v not_o at_o all_o in_o sense_n from_o this_o of_o the_o fellow_n there_o be_v these_o word_n in_o it_o omni_fw-la actioni_fw-la seculari_fw-la

expulsione_n although_o this_o promise_n to_o renounce_v in_o writing_n if_o require_v be_v not_o insert_v into_o the_o fellow_n oath_n yet_o i_o presume_v it_o will_v not_o be_v deny_v but_o a_o renunciation_n by_o a_o promissory_a oath_n in_o vim_o pacti_fw-la be_v and_o be_v design_v by_o the_o founder_n to_o be_v a_o renunciation_n so_o far_o forth_o as_o a_o man_n can_v renounce_v by_o oath_n of_o all_o the_o remedy_n that_o such_o a_o renunciation_n in_o scriptis_fw-la will_v have_v preclude_v he_o from_o and_o then_o if_o mr._n colmer_n can_v not_o have_v have_v his_o appeal_n
