Excerpt from A Profitable Book, Treating of the Laws of England: Principally as They Relate to Conveyancing Like most legal treatises of that period, the Profitable Book was written in law-french, and was first printed in the year 1532: it was not then divided into sections, as at present; but, for the convenience of reference, alphabetical divi sions were made in the margin of each folio: the division of the text into sections was made in the edition of 1576, and has ever since been retained.
