in Scripture? It must then be contrary to
the precept of some one ostensible specific
text. But this I believe has never been pretended.
Nay: but it is contrary to that other Law of God the Law
of Nature. Here all reasoning is at an end; and

with a metaphor.

And what then is this Law of Nature? It is
any thing which any one chooses to make of it.
It is the opinion of any man who chooses
to dignify his crude conceptions and
caprices with that imposing title.

The truth is strictly speaking there is no

expressive of the a will of what at least was the spirit, the will of some body
if not of God. The same may be observed of the
