A Portraiture of Quakerism, Volume I (of 3)

INTRODUCTION
103/423

Knavery frequently accomplishes its ends without the merited punishment.

Indeed treachery and intrigue are often considered but as jocose occurrences.

The laws of modern honour are frequently held out to the spectator, as laws that are to influence in life.

Vulgar expressions, and even swearing are admitted upon the stage.

Neither is chastity nor delicacy always consulted there.
Impure allusions are frequently interwoven into the dialogue, so that innocence cannot but often blush.
