For A Man's House Is His Castle.

It Is Better, Saith The Law, To Suffer A Mischief That Is Peculiar To One, Than An Inconvenience That May Prejudice Many.

No Man Can Be A Compleat Lawyer By Universalitie Of Knowledge Without Experience In Particular Cases, Nor By Bare Experience Without Universalitie Of Knowledge; He Must Be Both Speculative & Active, For The Science Of The Laws, I Assure You, Must Joyne Hands With Experience.

That Francis Bacon Retains His Reputation Gained, Is Not Strange To Any That Knows Him. The Unusual Words Wherewith He Had Spangled His Speech, Were Rather Gracious For Their Propriety Than Strange For Their Novelty, And Like To Serve Both For Occasions To Report And Means To Remember His Argument. Certain Sentences Of His , Somewhat Obscure, And As It Were Presuming Upon Their Capacities Will, I Fear, Make Some Of Them Rather Admire Than Commend Him. In Sum, All Is As Well As Words Can Make It, And If It Please Her Majesty To Add Deeds, The Bacon May Be Too Hard For The Cook.

And The Law, That Is The Perfection Of Reason, Cannot Suffer Anything That Is Inconvenient.

The Agreement Of The Parties Cannot Make That Good Which The Law Maketh Void.
