Strana 383 - Am I a freeman in England, and do I become a slave in six hours by crossing the channel...
Strana 345 - Squire their Landlord will never be so bewitched to take such Trash for his Land; so that it must certainly stop somewhere or other, and wherever it stops it is the same Thing, and we are all undone.
Strana 408 - And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span. 5 And he had a helmet of brass upon his head, and he was armed with a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of brass.
Strana 255 - After his trial, the jury brought him in not guilty, although they had been culled with the utmost industry : the chief-justice sent them back nine times, and kept them eleven hours, until, being perfectly tired out, they were forced to leave the matter to the mercy of the judge, by what they call a special verdict.
Strana 364 - They are as venomous as the poison of a serpent, even like the deaf adder, that stoppeth her ears; 5 Which refuseth to hear the voice of the charmer, charm he never so wisely.
Strana 483 - I have read somewhere of an eastern king, who put a judge to death for an iniquitous sentence, and ordered his hide to be stuffed into a cushion, and placed upon the tribunal for the son to sit on, who was preferred to his father's office. I fancy, such a memorial might not have been unuseful to a son of Sir William Scroggs, and that both he and his successors would often wriggle in their seats, as long as the cushion lasted.
Strana 159 - It would have been a jest, some time since, for a man to have asserted that anything witty could be said in praise of a married state, or that Devotion and Virtue were any way necessary to the character of a Fine Gentleman.
Strana 4 - War] is a Bottomless Pit, exemplified in the Case of the Lord STRUTT [the Kings of Spain], JOHN BULL [England] the Clothier, NICHOLAS FROG \Holland] the Linendraper, and LEWIS BABOON [Louis XIV. of Bourbon= France].
Strana 43 - I'll find those that shall manage her ; and for him, he dares as well be hanged as make one step in his affairs without my consent. If you will give me what you promised him I will make all things easy and stop the deeds of ejectment against Lord Strutt.
Strana 340 - Cloathing, and every common Necessary of Life entirely depend upon it. Therefore I do most earnestly exhort you as Men, as Christians, as Parents, and as Lovers of your Country, to read this Paper with the utmost Attention, or get it read to you by others...
