An owner of an estate in fee simple ‘has a time in the land without end, or the land for time without end,’ and ‘An estate in the land is a time in the land, or land for a time.’ and ‘the land itself is one thing, and the estate in the land is another thing, for an estate in the land is a time in the land, or land for a time, and there are diversities of estates, which are no more than diversities of time’
