/ zeal with men in their bodies. How they
come to their supposed dexterity and skill is q
wonder, except that saying be false, Name
iidsettur Grtifcr. Either it must he born with
them or they must have it by education, OIL
they must not have il at all. But If they will
| tell me they have good precedents, will tell
them that good conveyancer must be as well
able TO judge of the validity of the title, and
primitive estate of him that is to convey,
(Which man can never do without knowl-
edge Of the rules Of law, no more than blind
man can judge of colours) as to make deriv-
| alive estate and conveyance by good prece-
Gent; tor sctre EST per cauSGS scare, as the phi
| losopher speaks. And as well, for aught
know, may a man be an able physician by
| certain medicines only, that never read so
much as the grounds of physic, as such men
be able conveyancers by their precedents on
ly, that never read so much as the maxims of
law; NuLluaI mathematician ideB, est IN 0nl-
nt6uS. For my part | must ingenuously pro-
tess, that can scarce look into title, or IN, d.
die with convey ance of weight, wherein
! cannot make aui move more doubts and qucs-
lions, than am able 10 resolve and ans wer I;
and therefore those men have got the start of
me much. And yet much marvel il is, 10 see
how these empiricks of the law (if | may so
cal! them) are sought unto and made use Of,
and, that not only in lesser, but oit-timcs in
greater and more weighty businesses, and that
without the assistance OF any others more ahle
and sufficient; the which is not for lack Of OPP
portunlty of finding more learned men in the
law, for there is a sufficient store of them in
all places NOR do those that employ these en-
pirick5 of the law, always save (ifthey think
it:sated) more thereby; for besides the great
mischief which is Outlines done themselves
by the unskilGulness Of these workmen, some
of them by reason Of their much custom are
grown more chargeable than the ordinary
counselors, whose fee is certain and known
But of these empiricks OF the law and those
that make use of them, | might say as some
time our blessed Saviour said, Leitbsm alone,
The blind be leaders Of the blind. Howbeit be
| ing now called Gas conceive) hereunto. |
| chese rather TO admonish them and to tell the
| iirs sort, that conceive them to be usurpers
NpGl and intrudeIs into, other mems callngs,
and that they thrust their sickles into other
! mei's harvest, and that they have not yet
leaned that rule of divinity, TO abide an The
calling wkersi1l hcy gre called, but exercise
thc1solves in things too high for them, nor
yet have they learned this, Ne sutor ultra
crepRam, let not the cobler go beyond his last;
nor have they learned that--k qno quisque
1'0ril IN hoe Sc ererccai i; and let Tue tell the
Latter sort, that they heed not enough this say
ing, careat emptor; ncr believe the saying,
Cuitue IN Grte Sud credendunl, that every man
is to be believed in his own art. But if YOU
will say to me, that these mon will do their
woR we'll, and their work do alsucceed well ;
will say to you, that the blind may happily
hit he mark and it may fall out that some
tirnss they do their work well, and it doth
succeed well, but oft-times woful experience
sheFeth the contrary, and that many men
have been much mischieved every where by
the ignorance Of these men,"
