To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The tories made a gallant stand against this con- demnation of a guilty man by an iniquitous process ; and the debate which they raised is by far the longest and most able of any recorded in the seventeenth 204 MEMOIRS OF THE century. " Let us not, " said Harle}^, *' out of hatred or zeal against a guilty man, lose our own innocence. " One of the happiest retorts in the annals of parlia- ment enhvened the debate. Sir Edward Seymour having said, "I am of the same opinion with the Roman (Ctesar) ...who, in the case of Cataline, declared he had rather ten guilty persons should escape, than one innocent should suffer ;" Lieutenant- General Mordaunt rephed, "The worthy member who spoke last seems to have forgot that the Roman W'ho made that declaration was suspected of being a conspirator himself. " After a discussion that extended far into the night of several successive days, notwithstanding constantly decreasing majorities, the fatal act was at length carried through the Commons by 189 votes against 15G.
