I give you that orange
In the days when lawyers billed per word, were not taught by Professor Corkery, or did not have access to his fantastic publication 'Starting Law,' this phrase manifested to:
"I give you all and singular, my estate and interest, right, title, claim and advantage of and in that orange, with all its rind, skin, juice, pulp and pips, and all right and advantage therein, with full power to bite, cut, suck, and otherwise eat the same, or give the same away as fully and effectually as I the said A.B. am now entitled to bite, cut, suck, or otherwise eat the same orange, or give the same away, with or without its rind, skin, juice, pulp, and pips, anything hereinbefore, or hereinafter, or in any other deed, or deeds, instrument or instruments of what nature or kind soever, to the contrary in any wise, notwithstanding."
Thanks to Ashley, a devoted reader, for the material that made this post possible.
