To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There are several distinct clauses in the Act of William, and a transgression against any one of which, would, primarily, render the party liable to the penalties of the Act. If, then, he impugns the doctrine of the Trinity, and upon prosecTiti6n pleads the Unitarian Act, he is ac- 47 quitted : but if he reviles or blasphemes the doctrine of the Trinity, I believe no candid Uni- tarian would wish to see him absolved. Now let that clause of the Act of William be out of the question, for a moment..., and he still has trampled upon both the spirit and letter of the Act, by " denying the truth of the Christian re- ligion, " and the j" divine authority of the Holy Scriptures ;" nay, he has done more, for he has reviled and blasphemed the Holy Scriptures, and consequently the doctrine of the Trinity, which the Unitarian Act was never meant to sanction. Thus do abandoned and ungrateful men take advantage of the lenient toleration of our laws. The impudence of Carlile was remarkably instanced in his summoning several distinguish- ed characters of different parties, for the pur- pose of confusing their testimony: but if the Court had sanctioned such a procedure, where would have been the triumph of Deism ?
