title_n 2._o gent._n but_o let_v i_o tell_v you_o that_o those_o woman_n that_o have_v inheritary_a honour_n although_o not_o sovereign_n may_v endue_v their_o husband_n with_o the_o same_o honour_n but_o it_o be_v not_o general_o so_o but_o his_o child_n beget_v on_o she_o be_v endue_v and_o not_o the_o husband_n yet_o some_o husband_n be_v as_o for_o example_n a_o lord_n viscount_n earl_n marquis_n duke_n king_n or_o emperor_n if_o the_o honour_n as_o title_n go_v to_o the_o female_a for_o default_n of_o a_o male_n in_o some_o nation_n their_o husband_n be_v endue_v with_o their_o title_n but_o not_o common_o know_v to_o be_v so_o in_o england_n as_o a_o wife_n with_o her_o husband_n which_o be_v only_o during_o life_n and_o not_o inhereditary_a but_o if_o their_o title_n be_v only_o during_o life_n and_o not_o inhereditary_a it_o can_v derive_v to_o another_o that_o be_v not_o a_o successor_n for_o inhereditary_a honour_n go_v like_o entail_v land_n it_o go_v only_o to_o the_o next_o heir_n but_o those_o that_o be_v the_o dignify_a be_v like_o those_o that_o have_v jointure_n or_o annuity_n for_o life_n so_o when_o a_o husband_n receive_v a_o dignity_n from_o a_o wife_n or_o a_o wife_n from_o a_o husband_n it_o be_v but_o so_o much_o honour_n for_o life_n 1._o gentleman_n but_o if_o they_o have_v child_n those_o child_n inherit_v the_o honour_n 2._o gentleman_n yes_o as_o have_v a_o right_a from_o that_o parent_n that_o be_v the_o dignifier_n but_o if_o there_o be_v none_o of_o the_o line_n of_o the_o dignifier_n the_o honour_n die_v neither_o be_v the_o root_n of_o the_o honour_n leave_v to_o any_o more_o than_o one_o for_o though_o the_o branch_n of_o honour_n spread_v to_o all_o the_o child_n yet_o the_o root_n remain_v but_o with_o one_o for_o say_v a_o king_n have_v many_o child_n they_o be_v all_o prince_n but_o yet_o there_o can_v be_v but_o one_o that_o can_v inherit_v the_o crown_n and_o royalty_n so_o if_o a_o marquis_n or_o duke_n have_v many_o child_n they_o be_v all_o lord_n and_o lady_n if_o they_o be_v lawful_o and_o in_o true_a wedlock_n bear_v otherwise_o they_o be_v not_o neither_o do_v any_o more_o but_o one_o of_o the_o legitimate_a child_n inherit_v the_o root_n as_o to_o be_v marquis_n or_o duke_n duchess_n or_o marchioness_n neither_o do_v the_o daughter_n inherit_v if_o there_o be_v son_n 1._o gent._n but_o can_v a_o duke_n daughter_n make_v her_o husband_n a_o prince_n 2._o gent._n no_o not_o except_o she_o have_v the_o inhereditary_a honour_n for_o if_o a_o king_n daughter_n shall_v marry_v a_o private_a gentleman_n he_o will_v remain_v as_o only_o in_o the_o title_n of_o a_o gentleman_n unless_o the_o king_n do_v create_v a_o title_n for_o he_o or_o bestow_v a_o title_n on_o he_o 1._o gent._n why_o put_v case_n the_o inhereditary_a honour_n lie_v in_o the_o people_n and_o they_o elect_v a_o king_n have_v that_o king_n no_o power_n to_o create_v or_o to_o give_v honour_n 2._o gent._n no_o they_o may_v choose_v officer_n but_o not_o give_v title_n unless_o the_o people_n do_v dispossess_v they_o of_o their_o hereditary_a power_n and_o give_v it_o to_o any_o man_n and_o then_o the_o root_n of_o honour_n lie_v in_o he_o 1._o gent._n nor_o do_v his_o child_n receive_v no_o title_n from_o their_o father_n 2._o gent._n no_o for_o the_o title_n he_o have_v be_v none_o of_o he_o he_o have_v it_o but_o during_o life_n unless_o the_o people_n will_v give_v a_o lease_n as_o for_o two_o or_o three_o life_n yet_o they_o nominate_v those_o two_o or_o three_o life_n so_o neither_o can_v they_o dispose_v of_o their_o lease_n or_o alter_v they_o but_o at_o the_o people_n pleasure_n like_o as_o those_o that_o be_v make_v governor_n they_o can_v dispose_v of_o their_o
