If for no better reason than to make the example more interesting, let us put aside all distinctions of rank and fealty, collapsing the motley crews of attendant, servant, subordinate, and so on, under the heading of a single service, denoted by the relative term 's' for "servant of ---".  The terms of this service are:

The term I:C may also be implied, but, since it is so hotly arguable, I will leave it out of the toll.
