Sivu 64 - I translate from the original in my custody, will best elucidate the bearing of the transaction. ' Sir Richard de Fogeys, Knight, duly elected by the Shire, refused to find bail for his appearance in Parliament at the day and place within mentioned, and having grievously assaulted my Bailiffs, in contempt of the King, his crown and dignity, and absconded...
Sivu 41 - I behold a single steersman sitting at the helm, and guiding the vessel, which glides like a spirit through the waves. And the loaded chariot, no longer the encumbrance of the panting steed, darts on its course with fiery force and resistless rapidity. Let the pure and simple elements do thy labour. Bind the eternal enemies ; yoke them to the same plough. Make the contraries unite ; teach the discordant influences to conjoin in harmony. Aid the antagonists to conquer each other; and do thou profit...
Sivu 235 - But we know more, viz. that God is love also; but Satan did not add this to his religion, which became one of fear. The religion of the world was then a fearful religion. Superstitions abounded, and cruelties. The noble firmness, the graceful austerity of the true Christian were superseded by forbidding...
Sivu 123 - ... one objective of the penal process. This idea is given important emphasis, for example, in the thought of the medieval churchmen. The church's position, as described by Sir Francis Palgrave, was that punishment was not to be "thundered in vengeance for the satisfaction of the state, but imposed for the good of the offender: in order to afford the means of amendment and to lead the transgressor to repentance, and to mercy.
Sivu 62 - ... the other suitors. During this confabulation several nods and winks of intelligence passed between Trafford and a well-mounted knight ; and whilst the former appeared to be settling the business with the suitors, the latter, who had been close to Sir Giles, continued gradually backing and sidling away through the groups of shiresmen, and just as he had got clear out of the ring, John Trafford declared, in a most sonorous voice, that the suitors had chosen Sir Richard de Fogeys as one of their...
Sivu 193 - ... other purpose, it must be observed that it is not possible to satisfy ourselves completely that we have arrived at a true statement of any law of nature, until, setting out from such statement, and making it a foundation of reasoning, we can show, by strict argument, that the facts observed must follow from it as necessary logical consequences, and this, not vaguely and generally, but with all possible precision in time, place, weight, and measure.
Sivu 100 - Christendom. However uncouth may be the speech of the races amongst whom the pilgrim sojourns, however diversified may be the customs of the regions which he visits, let him enter the portal of the church, or hear, as I do now, the voice of the minister of the Gospel, and he is present with his own dear ones, though Alps and oceans may sever them asunder.
Sivu 187 - ... they are all governors. Nobody is flogged in Bridewell, he merely receives the correction of the house : — nobody is ever unable to pay his debts...
Sivu 64 - Richard had wholly disappeared ; and the special return made by the sheriff to the writ,' . . . . ' will best elucidate the bearing of the transaction. ' " Sir Richard de Fogeys, Knight, duly elected by the Shire, refused to find bail for his appearance in Parliament at the day and place within mentioned, and having grievously assaulted my Bailiffs, in contempt of the King, his crown and dignity, and absconded to the Chiltern Hundreds, into which Liberty, not being shire-land or guildable, I cannot...
Sivu 192 - ... he came into the consistory, and repealed the edicts against Galileo and the Copernican system. Before that surrender of ancient dogmas, though the Heliocentric system was taught in all popish universities, excepting Salamanca, it was always required of the professors, in deference to the decrees of the church, to use the term Hypothesis, instead of Theory. Salamanca, however, stood out, and the professor of astronomy would have resigned his chair rather than agree to the change. Professor Cabezudo...
