To which he replies "Si ilia concubina sit valde bona et utilis economa, et sic nullam aliam possit habere, esset absolvendus."

"'Sunt qui non habeant; est qui non curat habere. I suppose he did care for jewels, marble, and ivory, as much as any one. 'Me lentus Glyceræ torret amor meæ. I don't suppose he ever loved her really, or any other girl." Thus he would think over his Horace, always having the volume in his pocket. Now he went there.
Wherefore, whilst Hooker saith, that Christ hath not, by positive laws, so far descended into particularities with us as Moses with the Jews; whilst Camero saith, Non esse disputandum ita, ut quoniam in vetere Testamento, de rebus alioqui adiaphoris certa fuit lex, &c., id in novo Testamento habere locum; and whilst Bishop Lindsey saith, that in the particular circumstances of persons by whom, place where, time when, and of the form and order how, the worship and work of the ministry should be performed, the church hath power to define whatsoever is most expedient, and that this is a prerogative wherein the Christian church differeth from the Jewish synagogue, they do but speak their pleasure in vain, and cannot make it appear that the Christian church hath any more power to add to the commandments of God than the synagogue had of old.
In criticism, as in every other art, we fail sometimes by our weakness, but more frequently by our fault. We are sometimes bewildered by ignorance, and sometimes by prejudice, but we seldom deviate far from the right, but when we deliver ourselves up to the direction of vanity. No. 177.

The original passage is: 'Si non potes te talem facere, qualem vis, quomodo poteris alium ad tuum habere beneplacitum? De Imit. Christ. lib. i. cap. xvi. J. BOSWELL, Jun. See p. 29 of this vol.
Now it is a reminiscence of Homer: aliud clausum in pectore, aliud in lingua promptum habere; now of a Latin tragedian: secundae res sapientium animos fatigant.
