to the king and descend to  Henry who make a lease of it after the birth of Edward but he sue out livery  neither of the duchy nor manor in the lifetime of his father this lease be  good and king Edward can not avoid it king Edward be seize of the county of  Cornwall and of diverse possession thereto appertain in Cornwall and be also  seize of the manor of mere in the county of wilts in fee in right of his crown  it be enact in the parliament hold in the that year of his reign that he shall  make Edward his old son then earl of Chester duke of Cornwall and that the old  son of the king of England to wit those that shall be next heir to the crown  shall be duke of Cornwall and that the say county shall be give to the say  Edward the son as in name of a duchy and that this county of Cornwall shall  always remain as a duchy to the old son of the king of England who shall be  next heir of the realm without be otherwise dispose of and afterward the say  king make and create his say son duke of Cornwall and by his letter patent  grant to the say duke the say manor of m among other thing to have to he and  his old son and the old son of his heir king of England duke of the say place  who shall hereditary succeed to the kingdom of England to hold of the say lie  and ibis heir and by the same letter patent he annex and unite the say manor  to the say duchy to remain for ever without be sever or grant to any other or  in any manner so that on the death of the say duke or of other duke of the say  place and their son or son to who the say dukedom by force of the aforesaid  grant of the say king shall belong not then appear the say dukedom and manor  shall revert to the lord the king and his heir king of England to be retain in  their hand until any of such son or son hereditary to succeed to the say  kingdom of England shall appear to who then successive the say duchy with the  appurtenance the say king for himself and his heir grant and will to remain to  hold as above express and afterward the say duke die in the lifetime of his  father wherefore dyer b er p his father reenter upon the say duchy and manor  and die seize and this dukedom and manor afterward by succession descend to  the late king Henry who make a lease of the manor of m in the that year of his  reign which be before the birth of king Edward and after the birth of the late  king Edward who be then prince S in the that year of h the say king h make a  lease of the say manor for a term of year no dyer livery be sue of the say  dukedom or manor by the prince in the life of his father whether this lease be  defensible or not be the question and note that by the plead it be not allege  in certain that the say Edward first duke of Cornwall die without issue but in  truth he have issue Richard king but he be not duke or entitle to the dukedom  by the limitation aforesaid as it seem because he be not the firstborn son of  the king c and it seem the say lease be good and can not be avoid by the late  king Edward for four reason first it seem that by the say habendum and  limitation the say duke have only a estate at will in the say manor be parcel  of the possession of the crown and not of the aforesaid county of a of which  only the say statute speak also the king can annex and unite the say manor to  the say duchy by letter patent without the authority of parliament and make it  parcel of the duchy and to follow the form and course of the duchy as above  also suppose these matter to be good still by the death of the duke of  Cornwall without issue the manor come to the king as a escheat for want of a  duke and first bear son and be then knit and rejoin to the crown in lieu of  the signiory which be a tenure in capite and now in its pristine state and by  the birth of any other son afterward it can be dissever and disunite and make  parcel of the duchy again but admit that it can be dissever again yet without  livery or ouster Le main sue of the king no possession be divest from the king  wherefore c also note that the prince in the lifetime of his father when he be  duke of a do not enter into the land or make the new lease of it to Chasin but  the lease be make in the three year of Edward at which time he be not duke of  a for that name be merge in the crown at that time also note that it be  suppose in the plead that immediate after the birth of the prince he be seize  of the reversion in fee which be impossible as long as the particular tenant  continue his possession and term as the case be in Littleton of a lease of  parcel of the demesne of a manor with rend reserve and afterward he be seize  of the manor and the seize die seize of the whole manor but the termor  continue during that time the disseizee may distrain for the rend and the  reversion be sever from the manor in possession although not in right and also  if the prince have title immediate to the reversion then he have title to the  possession for he shall defeat all encumbrance as the son who be bear after a  descent cast upon his sister or after a escheat to the lord c and the judge  will not argue that case as I believe because of the pregnancy of queen mary c  but at length by their arbitrement the matter be finish and Lord Sturton have  the land pay to Chasin for it and for diverse other injury three hundred pound  dyer a er p the king ware be marry and have issue after she attain her age  tender her livery but die before it full pass her husband shall be tenant by  the courtesy dyer a man seize in fee of land hold of the king in capite die  seize have a daughter within age and office be find and the king grant the  wardship of the body and land to a b who marry the daughter and have issue by  her afterward she accomplish the age of sixteen year and the king be satisfy  for the profit of the two year they tender a general livery and before it be  full pass she die without issue and under age whether her husband shall be  tenant by the courtesy it seem that he shall
