It is not in the nature of a rent. If one reserves a rent of £. 40 annually, payable between Midsummer and Michaelmafs, in such weekly sums as the party shall require: he shall not lose his rent. But a distinction is to be taken in cases where the thing received may without damage be paid as well at one time, as at any other. So in the case put just now of the rent, if it be not demanded weekly, it may be laid up until the last week, but if one leases a dairy reserving 100 lb. of butter, payable between May day and Holy-mass, by such a quantity weekly the lessee shall not be compelled to pay all the last week: If one reserves 100 couple of woodcocks, payable between, &c. and the last week is after the time of their departure beyond the sea, he is not bound to pay them. So in case of a reservation of roses between Midsummer and Christmass.

Waller's office adjudged, viz. Lease for land in Surry, made in London, rendering rent, lessor devises the reversion and dies; the devisee brings rent in London, held bad.
