¶_o the_o first_o dialogue_n in_o englisshe_n /_o with_z new_a addition_n â_o here_o after_o follow_v the_o first_o dyaloge_n in_o englysshe_n /_o betwyxte_v a_o doctor_n of_o divinity_n /_o and_o a_o student_n in_o the_o law_n of_o england_n of_o the_o ground_n of_o the_o say_a law_n /_o &_o of_o conseyence_n /_o new_o correct_v &_o eft_o son_n enprynt_v with_o new_a addition_n â_o the_o introduction_n a_o doctoure_n of_o divinity_n that_o be_v of_o great_a acquaintance_n /_o &_o familiarity_n with_o a_o student_n in_o the_o law_n of_o england_n say_v thus_o unto_o he_o /_o i_o have_v have_v great_a desire_n of_o long_a time_n to_o know_v where_o upon_o the_o law_n of_o england_n be_v ground_v /_o but_o because_o moche_v part_n of_o the_o law_n of_o england_n be_v write_v in_o the_o french_a tongue_n therefore_o i_o can_v not_o through_o my_o own_o study_n atteygne_v to_o the_o knowledge_n thereof_o for_o in_o that_o tongue_n i_o be_o nothing_o experte_a and_o because_o i_o have_v always_o find_v the_o a_o faithful_a friend_n to_o i_o in_o all_o my_o business_n therefore_o i_o be_o bold_a to_o come_v to_o the_o before_o any_o other_o to_o know_v thy_o mind_n what_o be_v the_o very_a ground_n of_o the_o law_n of_o england_n as_o thou_o thynke_v ¶_o student_n that_o will_v ask_v a_o great_a leisure_n /_o &_o it_o be_v also_o above_o my_o cunning_a to_o do_v it_o nevertheless_o that_o thou_o shall_v not_o think_v that_o i_o will_v wilful_o refuse_v to_o fulfil_v thy_o desire_n i_o shall_v with_o good_a will_v do_v that_o in_o i_o be_v to_o satisfy_v thy_o mind_n /_o but_z i_o pray_v the_o that_o thou_o wylte_n first_o show_v i_o somewhat_o of_o other_o law_n that_o pertain_v most_o to_o this_o matter_n &_o that_o doctoures_fw-la treat_v of_o how_o law_n have_v begin_v and_o then_o i_o will_v glad_o show_v the_o as_o i_o tynk_v what_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o the_o law_n of_o england_n ¶_o doctoure_n i_o will_v with_o good_a will_v do_v as_o thou_o sayste_v wherefore_o thou_o shall_v understande_v that_o doctor_n treat_v of_o four_o law_n /_o the_o which_o as_o i_o seem_v pertain_v most_o to_o this_o matter_n the_o first_o be_v the_o law_n eternal_a the_o second_o be_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n of_o reasonable_a creature_n /_o the_o which_o as_o i_o have_v hard_o say_v be_v call_v by_o they_o that_o be_v learn_v in_o the_o law_n of_o england_n the_o law_n of_o reason_n the_o three_o be_v the_o law_n of_o god_n the_o four_o be_v the_o law_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v first_o treat_v of_o the_o law_n eternal_a â_o of_o the_o law_n eternal_a the_o first_o chapitre_fw-fr doctoure_n like_v as_o there_o be_v in_o every_o artificer_n a_o reason_n of_o such_o thing_n as_o be_v to_o be_v make_v by_o his_o craft_n /_o so_o like_o ââse_n it_o behove_v that_o in_o every_o governor_n there_o be_v a_o reason_n &_o afore_o sight_n in_o the_o governor_n of_o such_o thing_n as_o shall_v be_v order_v &_o do_v by_o he_o to_o they_o that_o he_o have_v the_o governaunce_n of_o and_o for_o as_o moche_v as_o almighty_a god_n be_v the_o creator_n &_o maker_n of_o all_o creature_n /_o to_o the_o which_o he_o be_v compare_v as_o a_o workman_n to_o his_o work_n and_o be_v also_o the_o governor_n of_o all_o dede_n and_o movynge_n that_o be_v find_v in_o any_o creature_n therefore_o as_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o wysdome_n of_o god_n in_o asmoche_n as_o creature_n be_v create_v by_o he_o have_v the_o reason_n &_o foresight_n of_o all_o craft_n &_o work_v that_o have_v be_v or_o shall_v be_v /_o so_o the_o reason_n of_o the_o wysdome_n of_o god_n move_a all_o thing_n by_o he_o make_v to_o a_o good_a end_n /_o opteyn_v the_o name_n &_o reason_n of_o a_o law_n /_o &_o that_o be_v call_v the_o law_n eternal_a and_o this_o law_n eternal_a be_v call_v the_o first_o law_n /_o &_o it_o be_v well_o call_v the_o first_o /_o for_o it_o be_v before_o all_o other_o law_n and_o all_o other_o law_n be_v derivy_v of_o it_o /_o whereupon_o saint_n augustin_n say_v in_o his_o first_o book_n of_o free_a arbytrement_n that_o in_o temporal_a law_n nothing_o be_v rightwyse_o ne_o lawful_a /_o but_o that_o the_o people_n have_v derivy_v to_o they_o out_o of_o the_o law_n eternal_a wherefore_o every_o man_n have_v right_a &_o title_n to_o have_v that_o he_o have_v rightwyse_o of_o the_o rightwyse_a jugement_n of_o the_o first_o reason_n /_o which_o be_v the_o law_n eternal_a ¶_o student_n but_o how_o may_v this_o law_n eternal_a be_v know_v /_o for_z as_o the_o apostle_n write_v in_o the_o u_o chapitre_fw-fr of_o his_o first_o epistle_n to_o the_o corynthies_n quesunt_fw-la dernemo_fw-la scit_fw-la nisi_fw-la spiritus_fw-la dei_fw-la that_o be_v to_o say_v no_o man_n know_v what_o be_v in_o god_n /_o but_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n /_o wherefore_o it_o seem_v that_o he_o open_v his_o mouth_n in_o to_o heaven_n that_o attempt_v to_o know_v it_o ¶_o doctoure_n this_o law_n eternal_a no_o man_n may_v know_v as_o it_o be_v in_o itself_o /_o but_o only_o bless_a soul_n that_o see_v god_n face_n to_o face_n /_o but_z almyghty_a god_n of_o his_o goodness_n show_v of_o it_o as_o moche_v to_o hê_n creature_n as_o be_v necessary_a for_o they_o /_o for_z else_o god_n shall_v bind_v his_o creature_n to_o a_o thing_n inpossible_a which_o may_v in_o no_o wise_n be_v think_v in_o he_o therefore_o it_o be_v to_o understande_v that_o three_o manner_n of_o way_n almighty_a god_n make_v this_o law_n eternal_a know_v to_o his_o creature_n reasonable_a first_o by_o the_o light_n of_o natural_a reason_n second_o by_o heavenly_a revelation_n thyrd_o by_o the_o order_fw-fr of_o a_o prince_n or_o of_o any_o other_o secondary_a governor_n that_o have_v power_n to_o bind_v his_o subgecte_n to_o a_o law_n and_o when_o the_o law_n eternal_a or_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v know_v to_o his_o creature_n reasonable_a by_o the_o light_n of_o natural_a understand_v /_o or_z by_o the_o light_n of_o natural_a reason_n /_o then_o it_o be_v call_v the_o law_n of_o reason_n and_o when_o it_o be_v show_v by_o heavenly_a revelation_n in_o such_o manner_n as_o hereafter_o shall_v appear_v /_o then_o it_o be_v call_v the_o law_n of_o god_n and_o when_o it_o be_v show_v unto_o he_o by_o the_o order_fw-fr of_o a_o prince_n /_o or_z of_o any_o other_o secundarye_a governoure_n that_o have_v power_n to_o set_v a_o law_n upon_o his_o subgecte_n /_o then_o it_o be_v call_v the_o law_n of_o man_n though_o originallie_o it_o be_v make_v of_o god_n /_o for_o law_n make_v by_o man_n /_o that_z have_v receyve_v thereto_o power_n of_o god_n be_v make_v by_o god_n therefore_o the_o say_v three_o law_n that_o be_v to_o say_v /_o the_o law_n of_o reason_n /_o the_o law_n of_o god_n /_o &_o the_o law_n of_o man_n the_o which_o have_v several_a name_n after_o the_o manner_n as_o they_o be_v show_v to_o man_n /_o be_z call_v in_o god_n one_o law_n eternal_a and_o this_o be_v the_o law_n of_o who_o it_o be_v write_v proverbiorum_n octavo_fw-la /_o where_o it_o be_v say_v â£_o perme_n reges_fw-la regnant_a et_fw-la legum_fw-la conditores_fw-la iusta_fw-la descernunt_fw-la that_o be_v to_o say_v

by_o doctoures_fw-la /_o be_v call_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n of_o reasonable_a creature_n ⸫_o the_o ii_o chapitre_fw-fr doctoure_n first_o it_o be_v to_o be_v understande_v /_o that_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n may_v be_v consider_v in_o two_o manner_n /_o that_o be_v to_o say_v general_o &_o special_o /_o when_o it_o be_v consider_v general_o /_o then_o it_o be_v refer_v to_o all_o creature_n
