The following extract is from "Good Thoughts
for Bad Tines" by the quaint old Rnglish
divine, Thomas Fuller, who, during the civil
war Of his day, wrote this fable, for the faint
hearted -
IN Done, Jndore."
81 saw one, whether out OF haste OF want Of
skill, put up his sword the wong way IL cut
even when L was sheHhed, the edge being traus-
posed where the back should have been; go that,
perceiving bis error, he was fain 20 draw Il out,
that he might put il up again.
"Wearied and wasted with civil war, we that
formerly lOatbed the mama of psace, because
common, could now be content 10 feed on II,
though full of worms and purified, and 30 de-
siruus thereof, that they carr not on what terms
the war lie ended, 30 II be ended; bst such
peace would be but truce, and tho conditions
thereof would no longer be in force than whilst
they arc In force. Let us pray that the sword
be sheathcd the right way -. otherwise Il may
Justly be suspected that the pword put up will
be drawn out again. and the articles Of an IN
agreement, though engrossed in parchment, not
take effect so long - paper would continue"
