the_o curse_n which_o by_o his_o father_n oppression_n and_o injustice_n be_v entail_v upon_o the_o family_n and_o estate_n but_o likewise_o because_o a_o son_n ought_v much_o more_o to_o be_v

know_v and_o be_v alive_a and_o extant_a the_o satisfaction_n be_v to_o be_v make_v to_o he_o 2._o if_o he_o be_v not_o alive_a or_o which_o be_v all_o one_o not_o to_o be_v find_v or_o come_v at_o satisfaction_n be_v to_o be_v make_v to_o his_o near_a relation_n his_o wife_n or_o child_n or_o brother_n or_o other_o near_a kindred_n the_o reason_n be_v because_o satisfaction_n be_v due_a and_o i_o have_v no_o right_a to_o keep_v that_o which_o i_o have_v injurious_o get_v if_o i_o can_v restore_v it_o to_o the_o party_n himself_o i_o ought_v in_o all_o reason_n to_o place_v it_o there_o

and_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n that_o i_o be_o bind_v thus_o to_o restore_v the_o part_n of_o his_o estate_n which_o i_o have_v injurious_o take_v or_o detain_v from_o he_o i_o be_o likewise_o

use_n or_o if_o the_o party_n injure_v be_v not_o capable_a of_o proper_a satisfaction_n as_o sometime_o it_o be_v a_o community_n and_o body_n of_o man_n that_o we_o have_v injure_v in_o this_o
