This was the sort of trash with which a
set of men used to amuse themselves with talking

general notion has been that compared with our contemporaries
in the same ranks they were generally
speaking a good sort of men : and assuredly in all times
good sort of men talking all their lives long nonsense
in an endless variety of shapes never have been
wanting : but that from talking nonsense in this or
any other shape they or their successors have in any way or degree been the

of Morals.
