Wayland's defences of the gospel. We shall offer no remark ; we shall let it speak for itself A third reason for the silence in question is the alleged ease with which precepts may be evaded. "A simple precept or pro- hibition, " says Dr. Wayland, "is, of all things, the easiest to be evaded. Lord Eldon used to say, that ' no man in England could construct an act of Parliament through which he could not drive a coach-and-four. ' We find this to have been illustrated by the case of the Jews in t...he time of our Saviour. The Pharisees, who ])rided themselves on their strict obedience to the letter^ vio- lated the spirit of every precept of the Mosaic code. " Now, in reply to this most extraordinary passage, we have sev- eral remarks to offer. In the first place, perhaps every one is not so good a driver as Lord Eldon. It is certain, that acts of Par- liament have been passed, through which the most slippery of rogues have not been able to make their escape. They have been caught, tried, and condemned for their offenses, in spite of all their ingenuity and evasion.
