3 What have I to do with it
4 — the use of it
5 —— has it to do with Eng law
6 what about it in Blackstone

The course taken by us with out work will from first to last/throughout all way be this — whatsoever
be the part of the field travelled over on
1 First will

1. First will come matter belonging to from the mouth of Universal
Jurisprudence

2. Next matter delivered by from the mouth/lips of Law as she aught to be

3 Then matter from that ofLaw as she is: for authority with reference
being made in so far as they are to be fixed have been to the words of Blackstone

speaking in for authority's sake by the meddling
Blackstone as far as he gla speaks and where he is silent [supplying the silence]
filling up the gap
left by his silence:

4. Last comes matter deterred frequently perhaps no otherwise
than insinuated by Law as she pretends to be.

Only incidentally, in here and there on occasion will
matter of the best sort be found afforded.
will the nature of
the case be found to afford matter of this sort
leave the door open for the entrance of their personages.
