He loves not Temperance or AuthOritio.

The humble soul compos'd Of love and fear
Begins at home, and lays the burden there,
when doctrines disagree:
He sayes, in things which use hath Justly got,

The Church is SO to me.
True Christians should be glad OF an occasion
10 use their temperance. using no evasion,
When good is seasonable;
Unless Authoritie, which should increase.

And Power itself disable.

Quick thoughts and motions at small expense,
A face not fearing light;
Whereas in fullness there are skittish fumes.

which patronizes these roads does not think that all
these accidents are attributable solely to the
lessness of travellers and loud complaints for

indeed positive recklessness, OF some con-
