The Parish Makes The Constable,

Ignorance Of The Law Excuses No Man; Not That All Men Know The Law, But Because 'tis An Excuse Every Man Will Plead, And No Man Can Tell How To Refute Him.

All Things Are God's Already; We Can Give Him No Right, By Consecrating Any, That He Had Not Before, Only We Set It Apart To His Service - Just As A Gardener Brings His Master A Basket Of Apricots, And Presents Them; His Lord Thanks Him, And Perhaps Gives Him Something For His Pains, And Yet The Apricots Were As Much His Lord's Before As Now.

They That Are Against Superstition Oftentimes Run Into It Of The Wrong Side. If I Will Wear All Colours But Black, Then Am I Superstitious In Not Wearing Black.

No Man Is The Wiser For His Learning

Every Law Is A Contract Between The King And The People And Therefore To Be Kept.
