both_o this_o will_v not_o pass_v the_o land_n in_o another_o county_n because_o the_o land_n pass_v by_o the_o livery_n which_o be_v local_a and_o not_o by_o the_o deed._n but_o in_o a_o exchange_n of_o land_n in_o two_o several_a county_n by_o deed_n the_o same_o be_v good_a for_o there_o the_o land_n pass_v by_o the_o deed._n but_o if_o one_o make_v a_o feoffment_n of_o a_o manor_n lie_v in_o

in_o a_o foreign_a county_n and_o so_o of_o a_o advowson_n appendant_a and_o such_o like_a because_o those_o rent_n and_o service_n pass_v not_o by_o the_o local_a ceremony_n of_o livery_n and_o seisin_n but_o by_o the_o ceremony_n of_o attornment_n which_o be_v personal_a and_o depend_v upon_o the_o person_n which_o be_v transitory_a wherein_o i_o take_v this_o difference_n that_o if_o a_o

and_o delivery_n of_o the_o deed_n before_o livery_n and_o seisin_n be_v make_v to_o pass_v the_o demesn_n then_o see_v that_o land_n in_o one_o county_n will_v not_o pass_v by_o feoffment_n by_o express_a livery_n make_v in_o a_o other_o county_n if_o then_o the_o same_o may_v be_v pass_v and_o convey_v by_o livery_n within_o the_o view_n be_v the_o question_n of_o our_o case_n and_o in_o my_o opinion_n they_o may_v because_o it_o be_v a_o ceremony_n perform_v by_o the_o eye_n which_o be_v a_o member_n or_o instrument_n which_o have_v his_o operation_n by_o aspect_n tam_fw-la

be_v and_o although_o the_o eye_n be_v fix_v in_o the_o head_n annex_v to_o the_o body_n yet_o like_o the_o sun_n his_o beam_n be_v carry_v afar_o of_o and_o this_o livery_n by_o the_o view_n be_v not_o a_o livery_n in_o the_o county_n where_o the_o body_n be_v but_o proper_o in_o the_o county_n where_o the_o land_n lie_v which_o be_v the_o object_n of_o the_o eye_n and_o in_o this_o case_n it_o be_v say_v to_o be_v livery_n only_o and_o not_o livery_n and_o seisin_n because_o the_o seisin_n be_v proper_o when_o the_o party_n enter_v and_o the_o entry_n of_o the_o party_n be_v that_o
