None are to intermeddle in such matters at home or abroad, but keep to that modest and reverent regard of matters above their their reach that befits good subjects. No man to think himself free from punishment because there are so many offenders. Well-disposed subjects will be punished, and much more those suspected for any reason of disaffection." -- Steele. 300 $aDated at end: ...
