The least expensive volume to cover nearly the entire field with brief selections is Vol. Miracle Plays. Read the Chester Play of Noah's Flood, Pollard, 8-20, and the Towneley Play of the Shepherds, Pollard, 31-43; Manly's Specimens, I, 94-119; Morley's English Plays, 12-18. These two plays best show the germs of English comedy. Moralities.
He did not pause to weigh reasons or chances, to discuss with himself expediency, or the moralities of failure. His actions were foreordained, mechanical. All at once the great forces which the winter had been bringing to power, crystallized into something bigger than himself or his ideas. The trail lay before him; there was no choice.
Life and birth and death had lost their mysteries. The veil was rent. To fit this existence of hers she had built herself a curious creed, a philosophy of individualism, from behind which she flung strange bombshells of theories, shafts of distorted moralities, personal liberties, irresponsibilities, a supreme scorn for modern law and the prophets. Nature, she claimed, was her law and her prophet.
To be an equal is to be an enemy. Society, from its highest place to its lowest, is one long chain, or rather ladder, where every individual is either above or below his nearest neighbour, and wherever he does not command he must obey. Existing moralities, accordingly, are mainly fitted to a relation of command and obedience.
To be hopeful in an artistic sense it is not necessary to think that the world is good. It is enough to believe that there is no impossibility of its being made so. If the flight of imaginative thought may be allowed to rise superior to many moralities current amongst mankind, a novelist who would think himself of a superior essence to other men would miss the first condition of his calling.
A first survey of my subject led me for a moment to doubt how far my title would cover the creations of that incomparable humourist.

In regard to the comparatively minor moralities of life, there is a wide difference among men, but the thief who rejects Christ and the honest man who rejects Christ are alike condemned at the great point of what they do with God’s Son, and this is the point that the Holy Spirit presses home. The sin of unbelief is the most difficult of all sins of which to convince men.
She laughed at him again and threw out her arms toward the moonlit sea. "What a night for the moralities for the ashes of repentance! I ask a man into the rose-garden to make love to me and he preaches to me instead preaches to me! of the world, the flesh and the devil, par exemple! Was ever a pretty woman in a more humiliating position!"
"I can't help you this time, Evan; truly I can't." Then, in sudden appeal: "Why won't you go to your father? He could tell you what to do and how to do it, and his judgment would be too big and just to stumble over the tangling little moralities." Blount smiled. "What if I should tell you that my father is more or less involved, Patricia?
His Wedded Wife Cry "Murder!" in the market-place, and each Will turn upon his neighbor anxious eyes That ask: "Art thou the man?" We hunted Cain Some centuries ago, across the world, That bred the fear our own misdeeds maintain To-day. Vibart's Moralities. Shakespeare says something about worms, or it may be giants or beetles, turning if you tread on them too severely.
