Place and Time
Employed Ch 4
[Not many generations ago] [In an age too
far advanced in knowledge to have been excusable
in suffering enduring such enormities] The Court of Kings
Bench by one of the most impudent lies upon
record, reserved to itself a large portion of the
jurisdiction of the Court of Common Pleas. The Court
of Common Pleas, instead of making a stand
upon the principles of truth and justice,
made reprisals by another [a lie as impudent as the former.]
another lie of equal impudence. The Sovereign superior
Judges of the nation, instead of sending the
combatants to fight it out in Newgate, shut
their eyes slept upon against the quarrel. Both Courts
(it would be an abuse of terms to say [both
Courts] of Justice, would be an abuse of terms leave been were
suffer'd to remain in the undisturbed possession
of their respective usurpations: and out of this
jumble of crimes has arisen sprung up [who would
think it?] one of the best and happiest features
of the English Law. + + [Mutual impotence or shame having long ago made peace.] Both with uninter-
rupted
