Fiction
False argument—declamation
Barrow two
on this subject. Volumes
&c. on the Judex.
As there are but two sides...
in every question...
a right and a wrong, a decision resolution
formed in this manner had as
good a chance to light on the for the one of them
as that other: but if that in
question has happened [to light]
or the right one no thanks to
those who formed it.
The question was whether
Bastards should be legitimated
by the subsequent marriage of
their parents—the argument
for the affirmative was, "because
Holy Church held it so: the
argument for the negativewhich prevailed was
It never was before, and it
shant be so now. It must be
confessed however the Barons did not judge
amiss from the such lights as which they
had: as to the expediency of the
particular proposal before them
they know nothing of the matter:
which was probably about as much
as those knew who proposed it:
but they knew in general the this
corresponding genius spirit of Ecclesiastics:
they knew the advantages that
the exclusive possession of the
little learning of the age gave
in point of political wisdom:
as they knew by experience how
apt they were to employ them by
in the ....th Century which has in modern times serves/served as a peroration
to so many flimsy declamation—"<unclear>Nolamus leges Anglo
maturé qui hue usque extiterant laudate & approbate</unclear>.
