Place and Time

notes formalities and drawing his powers fresh from
the ocean fountain-head of majesty should assume display new ones

to call for them should arise] the tide current of
should bring the expediency utility<add>propriety</add> of assuming them
into view. [Hence the office of Chancellor, and
the Court Hou of Chancery.] Then as before, the

conveyances which the old established original <add>antient</add> courts would
not adopt: it vacated contract covenants and
conveyances
