WRONG.

Wrong, or Injury is in French aptly called Tort,* 1.1 because injury and wrong is wrested or crooked, being contrary to that which is right and straight. Injury is derived of in and Ius, because it is con∣trary to right.

Queen Elizabeths continuall charge to her Justices agreeable with her antient Laws was, that for no Commandement under the Great, or Privy Seal, Writs, or Letters, common right might* 1.2 be disturbed or delayed, according to the antient Law declared by the great Charter, Nulli vnde∣mus aut negabimus aut differemus justitiam vel rectum.
