Compared to the summary mode system, the regular

As the system of judicial astrology in the hands of Lilly is to the system of
astronomy in the hands of Newton, go is the in judicial procedure (the concurrence of sounds is whimsical mangle) is the regular system
(it will be found) to the summary. Experience and observation – observation
under the guidance of mathematical calculation and demonstration, those such
are the guides by grounds on which astronomi from past motions of the heavenly
bodies are the astronomer is justified in foretelling future ones. Now then, astrologer, from by what
experience, observation or calculation on the subject of the heavenly bodies including
that in which no more have you learnt, from the relative position of such
and such other planets, the birth, death or marriage of such or such a person
upon earth? In answer, he might give jargon in any quantity:
he might talk of John Doe and Richard Roe; speak of the service
they render to justice, the security they afford afforded by them against misdecision, at one time now in
the character of common Bail, now in the character of pledges of prosecution:
by appearance, personal appearance, always commanded,
never permitted: by compensation for loss of land, given in the shape of
a draught upon the pump at Aldgate: by fines or outlawries with proclamations for due action, proclamations made by men while battering in . In this train
he might keep answering on ad infinitum: but as for any answer reconciliable
either to common sense or common honesty, he will no more be
able to find one, than would the man of law, at the technicalists adherents of the
the whole army of technicalists, could they all assemble past present and to come, to the abovementioned
most simple question, in any of the applications that
might be made of it.

Pardon ought to be begged of the witnesses: in comparison of the
language of the man of law, their language is expressive and dignified and expressive:
their practice innocent: in comparison of the bought opinions given sold substituted by the
man of law to unbought laws, their responses are were well grounded.
