A51562	A reply to an answer to the Defence of Amicia, daughter of Hugh Cyveliok, Earl of Chester wherein it is proved, that the reasons alleadged by Sir Peter Leicester, in his former book, and also in his said answer, concerning the illegitimacy of the said Amicia, are invalid, and of no weight at all / by Sir Thomas Mainwaring ...

the_o word_n liberum_fw-la conjugium_fw-la to_o create_v a_o estate_n of_o inheritance_n as_o well_o as_o the_o word_n liberum_fw-la maritagium_fw-la which_o no_o man_n before_o you_o ever_o say_v

for_o geva_n life_n you_o tell_v i_o that_o my_o lord_n coke_n upon_o littleton_n fol._n 21._o b._n cit_v peter_n saltmarch_n case_n and_o fitz-herbert_n de_fw-fr natura_fw-la brevium_fw-la fol._n

for_o i_o then_o tell_v you_o that_o whether_o the_o marriage_n of_o robert_n earl_n of_o gloucester_n with_o mabill_n daughter_n and_o heir_n of_o robert_n fitz-hamon_n be_v according_a to_o selden_n

which_o if_o true_a the_o say_a earl_n hugh_n be_v fifty_o two_o year_n old_a at_o his_o death_n for_o he_o die_v in_o the_o year_n 1181_o and_o if_o so_o than_o he_o be_v four_o year_n above_o

not_o give_v a_o answer_n until_o you_o do_v ask_v the_o question_n and_o you_o never_o ask_v the_o question_n in_o your_o former_a book_n but_o the_o answer_n which_o i_o shall_v now_o give_v to_o this_o question_n be_v that_o i_o suppose_v king_n in_o such_o case_n do_v that_o which_o to_o they_o seem_v most_o just_a but_o yet_o king_n in_o these_o case_n as_o well_o as_o in_o other_o be_v of_o different_a judgement_n from_o one_o another_o very_o many_o time_n and_o indeed_o the_o very_a same_o prince_n will_v be_v sometime_o of_o one_o mind_n and_o sometime_o of_o another_o mind_n concern_v the_o same_o thing_n and_o thus_o we_o see_v when_o randle_n blundevile_n earl_n of_o chester_n die_v which_o be_v in_o the_o year_n 1232._o king_n henry_n the_o three_o do_v suffer_v the_o
