The parson, he willingly allowed, deserves to rise higher and higher in everybody's esteem; but then he mustn't do it by getting on another's back in this fashion. That is more like leapfrog than quoits. Then, again, the legal maxim, Cujus est solum, ejus est usque ad coelum his own right as first occupant extends to the vault of heaven; no opponent can gain any advantage by squatting on his back.
Gibbon wrote to Holroyd Misc. Works, ii 126: 'Never pretend to allure me by painting in odious colours the dust of London. But for the old, the infirm, the straightened in fortune, the grave in character or in disposition, I do not believe a much worse place can be found. Ib. iv. 250. 'Nescio qua natale solum dulcedine captos Ducit, et immemores non sinit esse sui. Ovid, Ep. ex Ponto, i. 3. 35.
Omne solum forti patria, et coelum undique supra est. The causes which led to this change of feeling on the part of Christian IV.'s advisers have not been explained by the biographers of Tycho.
Whereupon Dr Fulk noteth, that the Apostle in that place doth compare our sacraments with the altars, hosts, sacrifices or immolations of the Jews and Gentiles, “in that point which is common to all ceremonies, to declare them that use them to be partakers of that religion whereof they be ceremonies.” If then Isidore thought it unlawful for Christians to take pleasure in the fables of heathen poets, because non solum thura offerendo daemonibus immolatur, sed etiam eorum dicta libentius capiendo; much more have we reason to think that, by taking part in the ceremonies of idolaters, we do but offer to devils, and join ourselves to the service of idols.

Multa in nostro collegio praeclara, sed hoc de quo agimus, in primis, quod, ut quisque aetate antecedit, ita sententiae principatum tenet, neque solum honore antecedentibus, sed eis etiam, qui cum imperio sunt, maiores natu augures anteponuntur. Quae sunt igitur voluptates corporis cum auctoritatis praemiis comparandae?
