Place and Time
That substantial parties which may do in a day What the English Judge does one time in a
hundred, the Cawses and the Bramin like the English fathers may
do every day: their inclinations may be perverse,
knowledge judgment may be weak: but at any

that a fines whereby which bore so heavy on
