DISSENTERS. Penal Laws.
They are in a great error, who seeing the words twenty
Pound & £100 & so many months imprisonment,
think that look upon the punishment for dissenting as just
so much as being just & no more — It is this gracious alternative,
beggary or perpetual imprisonment. It
is absolute proscription: as much so as any thing
can be, where torture is not used inflicted nor life
destroy'd. x p.4
[He who has travelled with too many horses one day may travel to water with fewer.] He who has made his cloth wrong one time, may make it right another

Was there any one who
In all other offences, when the fine is once paid, wch

smuggled once & has smarted for it, [may make ].

impute to it, & for which they hate it, a tender
& zealous regard for the rights of human Nature,
that spirit of charity, which
it is the best praise of Christianity [to] that
is inculcated.

To the great discomfiture of men of orthodoxy

peace & liberty, as to his devotion which Christians as yet sigh after in vain.
Punishment is demanded against him them, who without
certain declarations
