J. B. to Carlisle
Just says the tyrant looking upon the man he has fastened
in for his victim — such says he locking him shadily
and and steadily in the face in my opinion:
so say the words, and to the words which the looks add
is — and now, Sir, will and what are yours?
Having had occasion to witness this tyranny
so have I had occasion to witness the fruits of it. And
these fruits are no skin them those which our sure be
to the fruit of tyranny, or every , by whom, and is
who so ever executed. If of a father it be the wish to
alienate from himself the affection of & any one Uncle this
of a Nephew in a word of a patron it be the wish
to convert a dependent of any description from a sincere
friend into a secret enemy. I would venture to recommend
to him this course as me then which nothing more official
can be imagined devised: and if a some unlooked for
reason it should happen to him to witness the token of that enmity, in experience the effect
of it, let him not place it them to any other the account those that
of his own f and his injustice own wisdom. against those
his own vices he may dull his own eyes as obstinately
as he pleases, the nature of men will not the less
embrace unchanged, causes will all the less caution to
be products of their effects.
Reversed or not reversed — Receive or not receive of
the Holy Ghost will the eminence of every in his
can cause a man making will of his dependents, and
the or the of religion, acting the part on there ears
of a Spanish Inquisition — what is the consequence? count the
answer true or false. If true the tyrant is enraged, the victim opposes
and perhaps friend: if false, here is universally produced, and religion
religion the instrument
employed in the production
of it
