Thorfinn went to the Pope not only for absolution, but to get Thorolf appointed bishop in Orkney, according to Adam of Bremen, c. 243. We now come to the last years of the fourth period of his life, when "the earl sate down quietly and kept peace over all his realm. Then he left off warfare, and he turned his mind to ruling his people and land, and to law-giving.
"Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail?" Thus through chapters of greatest beauty the primitive mind seeks to portray for the benefit of other primitive minds the omnipotence of the world's Ruler. What hope has man of conceiving, even approximately, the great law-giving Force that rules the universe?
Their "knowing" is CREATING, their creating is a law-giving, their will to truth is WILL TO POWER. Are there at present such philosophers? Have there ever been such philosophers? MUST there not be such philosophers some day? ...
From the usage of classic writers it deduced certain "rules" of composition; these formulas were applied to the work under examination, and that was adjudged good or bad in the degree that it conformed or failed to conform to the established rules. It was a criticism of law-giving and of judgment.
At the dinner-table, that evening, Penrod Surprised his family by remarking, in a voice they had never heard him attempt a law-giving voice of intentional gruffness: "Any man that's makin' a hunderd dollars a month is makin' good money." "What?" asked Mr. Schofield, staring, for the previous conversation had concerned the illness of an infant relative in Council Bluffs.
In the other hand was what might be tables of stone, a book, or something to represent law-giving authority. "How much?" asked Tom. "No sell," was the monotonous answer. "Five hundred dollars," offered our hero. "No sell." "One thousand dollars." "No sell." "Why is it so valuable to you?" Tom wanted to know. "We have him for many years. Bad luck come if he go."
These are but material symbols for the six stages of the ascent of the mind to the pure God-idea. The chief city, the metropolis, is the Divine Logos, next come the two powers already considered, and then three secondary powers, the retributive, the law-giving, and the prohibitive. "Very beautiful and well-fenced cities they are, worthy refuges of souls that merit salvation."
Philo follows what may have been a Hebrew tradition in explaining the two names of God, "Elohim" and "Jehovah," as connoting His two chief attributes: the creative or beneficent, the ruling or judicial, or, as it is sometimes called, the law-giving power.
So that truly, neither philosopher nor historiographer could at the first have entered into the gates of popular judgments, if they had not taken a great passport of poetry, which, in all nations at this day where learning flourisheth not, is plain to be seen: in all which they have some feeling of poetry. In Turkey, besides their law-giving divines, they have no other writers but poets.
No evidence had been found to back up his statements. They told him to make his will, for he possessed a fifty-thousand dollar Sunrise claim, and they were a law-abiding as well as a law-giving breed. Leclere shrugged his shoulders. "Bot one t'ing," he said; "a leetle, w'at you call, favour a leetle favour, dat is eet. I gif my feefty t'ousan' dollair to de church.
