Now then comes the cruelty. The more
flagrant the absurdity, the greater the difficulty
of causing men either to embrace the
dogma, or to pretend to embrace it. The greater
the difficulty, the greater moreover the anxiety
of the Tyrant, by whom the command to
profess the belief of it has been issued, lest
universal indignation, with it's consequences
should take place, of the universal prostration
of understanding and will, the
production of which ishe has thus hazarded himself to put his authority to
To quiet this anxiety, to satiate this anger, if
moderate punishment is not sufficient,
immoderate must be employed: and thus
in Spain and Portugal have come those
temporal and visible business, forerunners
and prototypes of the announced immediately-
future, though as yet invisible,
ones. Such are the scenes which, in Spain
and Portugal, the hypocrites their dupes
have witnessed & enjoyed: such are the scenes
which, in England, unless in England man is
an altogether different animal from what
he is in Spain and Portugal, have never
ceased, nor as long as man is man can
ever cease to wish to witness and to
enjoy: to enjoy in that same land which, two centuries
and a half ago, presented these same scenes
to the wisdom and piety of their ancestors.
