So this woman was Dives She was a rich woman,1 she had her lands by the Sheriffs nose He was a gentle man of a long nose. Such a cup, such a cover. She would not depart from her own. This Sheriff was a covetous man, a worldly man. The Judge at the enpanelyng of the quest, had his grave looks, and charged them with this. It was the Kings matter, look well upon it.

So it is possible in a case, for a man that hath in his absence attaintment to have right, & no wrong.
