Remember . . . my grandchildren . . . you are starting out together that way . . ." To illustrate his meaning, he held up two fingers parallel, and added: "If your tracks fork . . . they will soon be as far apart as sunrise is from sunset . . . and you will find many ready to come in between.

Whether any parallel can be formed between such ill-timed satire, and wild misconduct, and the manner in which your lordships have been treated on this occasion, it is not my province to determine.
There is a passage in Josephus very nearly parallel to this, and which may at least serve to vindicate the evangelist from objection, with respect to his giving the title of high priest specifically to two persons at the same time: "Quadratus sent two others of the most powerful men of the Jews, as also the high priests Jonathan and Ananias."

You must not keep the point of the knife perpendicular to the body of the bird, because, were you to hold it so, you would cut the inner skin of the belly, and thus let the bowels out. To avoid this let your knife be parallel to the body, and then, you will divide the outer skin with great ease. Begin on the belly below the breastbone, and cut down the middle, quite to the vent.
The English suffered in the entire action only 50 killed and 120 wounded, and repairs were so easily made that Blake returned to his blockading station at once. This was the greatest of Blake's feats as it also was his last. All who heard of it friend or enemy pronounced it as without parallel in the history of ships.
