BR9 DISSENT CONFLICTUS LEGUM. 1 Comm. 90.
One of the most redoubtable arguments in a paper
circulated among the members of the House of Lords against
the Bill for the Relief of the Dissenters, [v. Publ. Ads. for

to several Acts of Parliament. It is then applied indeed however
only to the matter of expediency, & not of right: tho' in either
case is it's force the same
Luckily Cicero has spoken treated of this conceit, as the
Author of the Commentaries observes, with the contempt it
merits deserves: And Cicero was an eloquent Orator, a Roman, &
lived 1800 years ago.— Those arguments which will weigh with
those with whom no others will.

matters of obligation, to those positive ones which it
honours in them as matters of praise) learned as themselves,
in every respect their equals, except (that in
which may pardon their inferiority) in not being titled as
themselves?
