Very good 18 indeed,' replied the Squire; but first concerning the first [points]: surely it is clear you would not deny that whatever is is: which, if you should not grant,19 I am unable to go further.' Why 20 20 this at least, I believe,' replied the other, 'I could grant, and do you make the best of your argument?' 921 Further, this also I call on you to grant, that the part is less than the whole.' ' And I,' he said, 'yield this also, since it seems likely 22 to be right.' 'Surely, too, you will not say that the three angles 23 of a triangle are unequal to two right" [angles]?' 'Why it's clear,' 25 replied he, and at the same time looking 26 round was very important,27 as he was wont. 'Well then,28' said the Squire, pouring his words very fast down 29 his ears, these being our premises,30 what prevents my concluding 31 that, from the concatenation of selfexistences,3 ,32 proceeding in a reciprocal duplicate ratio,33 a problematical dialogism 34 arises, which indeed in some measure proves 36 [of] the essence 37 of spirituality,38 that we must refer it39 to the second of the categories? 240 'But hold,' said he, drawing back, 35 for this I grant not.

By a constitutional policy, working after the pattern of nature, we receive, we hold, we transmit our government and our privileges in the same manner in which we enjoy and transmit our property and our lives. The institutions of policy, the goods of fortune, the gifts of Providence, are handed down to us and from us in the same course and order. Our political system is placed in a just correspondence and symmetry with the order of the world, and with the mode of existence decreed to a permanent body composed of transitory parts: wherein, by the disposition of a stupendous wisdom, moulding together the great mysterious incorporation of the human race, the whole at one time is never old, or middle aged, or young, but, in a condition of unchangeable constancy, moves on through the varied tenor of decay, fall, renovation and progression. -HOLDEN, p. 265. 8 SAME PASSAGE ADAPTED. 1 For we enjoy a constitution2 working3 according to the very `pattern1 of nature, whereby we, having received and held our government from time to time, and our privileges, afterwards transmit9 them no otherwise than [we transmit] our possessions and lives, after having enjoyed them.10 And in the same manner having received from our ancestors we hand down the institutions of policy11 and the [goods] accruing 12 from fortune and from the gods. And to us is established 13 a scheme of polity symmetrical and correspondent 14 with the order of the world,15 for it is not based 16 upon other [conditions] than those whereon natural bodies,1 permanent,18 indeed, but of transitory 19 parts, are by God's will based; for we know, divine wisdom having so ordained,20 that all men are mysteriously 21 incorporated 22 into one body, so that neither have they all the same age 23 simultaneously, either as to childhood, or middle age,24 or old age; but that the whole body,25 being unchangeable, 26 and passing through the vicissitude 27 of decay, 28 and fall,29 and renovation,30 and progression,31 by turns, moves forward.

Zaragossa is not a fortified town; the brick wall which surrounded it was from ten to twelve feet high, and three feet thick, and in many places it was interrupted by houses, which formed part of the enclosure. The city had no advantage of situation for its defence. It stands in an open plain, which was then covered with olive grounds, and is bounded on either side by high and distant mountains; but it is commanded by some high grounds, called the Torrero, upon which there was a convent with some smaller buildings. During the night and on the following day the enemy made an assault upon the city.- HOLDEN, p. 223. 8 SAME PASSAGE ADAPTED. 9 2 6 Zaragossa is an unfortified' town, and the brick wall which surrounds3 it in a circle, was about ten or twelve feet in height, and three in thickness, and in some places houses, which themselves were of the enclosure, interrupted it so that it was not continuous.

They without made the sign agreed upon, and were answered by one of the sentinels from the wall; upon which they run to both places where they were to mount their ladders. By some accident the other sentinel, who was designed, was not upon the other part of the wall, so that when the ladder was mounted there, the sentinel called out; and, finding that there were men under the wall, ran towards the court of guard to call for help; and, in his way met Morrice, who, finding him to be a wrong soldier, seemed not to believe him, but took him back with him to show him the place, and carried him to the top of the wall, nearer, that they might listen; and from thence, being a very strong man, he made a shift to throw the soldier over the wall; and, by this time, they from without were got upon the wall from both places, and had made their signs to their friends at a distance. - HOLDEN, Fol.
