they are not to suffer by. May not the laws
which concern religion be placed in the former class
as well as in the latter? [Is not religion as
good a cloak as justice?] Is murder in its call for vengeance less loud though not than forgery? Would those who hanged those themselves to hang for forgery And reserve [Can} This [favors] Bramin who helps the deluded <add>self widow in her sacrifice can he in the eyes of an English lawyer be anything than a murderer: and is not a law which this is inured as repugnant to laws of God Lord Coke has said
delegata protestas non potest delegari: the same
Lord Coke hath said that laws contrary to the
will law of God are void, and that the laws of an
infidel country are contrary to the laws of
God. Is would not the one maxim be as convenient as cogent as
the other? Is not religion as good a cloak
as justice? Can any consideration of be a check barrier
to those to whom the inequity infamy of an proscription ex postfacto
opposed none? Can any security be
by obtained for the Gantoo by prohibitions
[instead of punishment] limping on hobbling on after at two years
distance upon in the knees footsteps of misrule of delinquency?
