Law Amendmt Constitutional Code Propositions
Ch. XII Judiciary collectively
§. Inaugural Declaration

Of the sort of security in question such is the conception
endeavoured intended to be inculcated conveyed: behold now what
it amounts to reality.

Whether any such ceremony as the utterance of the
formula has place at all, is to all but the very few whose
interest it is to keep the matter morbid in darkness made
of compleat uncertainty: what is certain is – that if any
such formula is uttered, it is uttered in the secrecy of
the closet, and is itself a mere vapour a vapour
form of words altogether incapable of answering in any degree
and such purpose as thing like its the pretended purpose.

Supposing how it were in itself fitted to its professed
purpose – suppose its the character of it were such as the above, what
would it amount to? Next to nothing. The scene of
the ceremony lying in the secrecy of the closet – the and
prospect of the formula alike unknown, by no one
person of those by and to whom application made of it
any useful purpose could application be ever
made of it. Behold now the futility of it.

As they stood in the middle of the 17th Century, these
Oaths are recorded in a small Volume bearing date
the year 16. intituled the Book of Oaths.
1. Oath of the Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench
