We are not to look upon the mischiefs of this phrasaology
as if they were confined to the difficulties they
oppose to the apprehension of the subject. — Errors
of a plain practical nation may be seen to flow [issue
out of this chaos] to be engender'd from this turbed source
If this dictate of School-casuistry were to be observed,
there would be as many rebellions almost as there
are great Political questions agitated & decided:
I will Let us take, concerning the Power of the Sovereign in over the
marriages of his Family; for an example the Dissenters
from the Act Statute which established it, failed not, as might
be expected, to urge it's being repugnant to the Law of
Nature; they ought in consequence, according to this
doctrine, to have taken up arms rather than to submit
to it.
Many are the odious &c I could put many odious & improbable cases of what the
Parliament may be conceived to do, which if they were
to do, he would be the best citizen who should be soonest
up in arms.
