Strana 55 - All school-days' friendship, childhood innocence ? We, Hermia, like two artificial gods, Have with our needles created both one flower, Both on one sampler, sitting on one cushion, Both warbling of one song, both in one key ; As if our hands, our sides, voices...
Strana 349 - The true reason of requiring any qualification, with regard to property, in voters, is to exclude such persons as are in so mean a situation that they are esteemed to have no will of their own.
Strana 24 - To-day she was a paysanne, with her straw hat tied at the back of her head, looking as if too new to what she passed, to know what she looked at. Yesterday she, perhaps, had been the dressed belle of Hyde Park, trimmed, powdered, patched, painted to the utmost power of rouge and white lead; to morrow, she would be the cravatted Amazon of the riding house : but be she what she might, the hats of the fashionable promenaders swept the ground as she passed.
Strana 350 - If it were probable that every man would give his vote freely, and without influence of any kind ; then, upon the true theory and genuine principles of liberty, every member of the community, however poor, should have a vote in electing those delegates to whose charge is committed the disposal of his property, his liberty, and his life.

Strana 136 - Act for preventing tumults and riotous 1 Geo. i. »t. 2. " assemblies, and for the more speedy and effectual punishing the rioters," it was amongst other things enacted, that if any persons to the number of twelve or more, being unlawfully, riotously, and tumultuously assembled together to the disturbance of the public peace...
Strana 133 - who make an insurrection in order to redress a public grievance, whether it be a real or pretended one, and of their own authority attempt with force to redress it, are said to levy war against the king, although they have no direct design against his person, inasmuch as they insolently invade his prerogative, by attempting to do that by private authority which he by public justice ought to do, which manifestly tends to a downright rebellion. As where great numbers by force attempt to remove certain...
Strana 124 - Laws politic, ordained for external order and regiment amongst men, are never framed as they should be, unless presuming the Will of man to be inwardly obstinate, rebellious, and averse from all obedience unto the sacred Laws of his Nature : in a word, unless presuming man to be, in regard of his depraved mind, little better than a wild beast...
Strana 387 - Only such are entirely excluded as can have no will of their own : there is hardly a free agent to be found, but what is entitled to a vote in some place or other in the kingdom.
