From p. 133
The Judges of the supreme Court found
out another way of dealing with these people,
which was to turn them loose + +when the hand of justice or at least of what in that country had been used to pass for justice when they were
caught, and re-instate them in the exercise
of their vocation. There was prophecy in
the history of Don Quixote and the
galley-slaves.

was or what else that put this exploit into
their heads; By this they unbound the hands
of villainy: by another story they had tied the
hands of justice. By a third they had staid
the ax at to the root of the revenue. [By these
decisions they had taught given the people <add>nations to understand</add> that no man's property
is secure against any hand but that of justice:
By the proscription of November they shew'd that
no man's life is secure against their cause.
