The 3. precept is called fv.rch, for quhatcaufel knaw nocht certainlie: Bot like as ane fork hes twa graineS, this precept hes ane alternative command of twa parts, for the King com- mandis the fuperiour to give faifing, orelfe he certifies him, he wil com- mand the SciiirefFe to give the famin. ltaque hoc pra-ceptum efl furcatum, vel bifurcation, ineademfignificatione, quabarba bijurcata, quhilk is di- vided in twa taits or pa«s- And in French./iircie, is called cloven tutted, or farked.
