31. lappuse - And whereas the Senate of the United States have approved of the said arrangement and recommended that it should be carried into effect, the same having also received the sanction of His Royal Highness the Prince Regent, acting in the name and on the behalf of His...
404. lappuse - Equity is a roguish thing ; for law we have a measure, know what to trust to ; equity is according to the conscience of him that is Chancellor, and as that is larger or narrower, so is equity. 'Tis all one as if they should make the standard for the measure we call a foot...
336. lappuse - For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption : But he whom God raised again saw no corruption.
336. lappuse - Thou shalt come to thy grave in a full age, like as a shock of corn cometh in in his season.
390. lappuse - ... drawn from them, — in the power of instantaneously applying this immense theoretical and practical knowledge to the business immediately before the Court, — in perceiving almost with intuitive readiness, on the first opening of a case, its real state, and the ultimate conclusion of equity upon it, yet investigating it with the most conscientious, most minute, and most edifying industry, — in all, or in any of these requisites for a due discharge of his high office, Lord Eldon, if he has...

222. lappuse - He now produced two papers, which he represented as copies of what he had written to them, in which he assents to their proceeding and going on with the Bill, adding certainly in each, as he read them, very strong expressions of the pain and misery the proceedings gave him. It struck me at the time that I should, if I had been in office, have felt considerable difficulty about going on after reading such expressions ; but whatever might be fair observation as to giving or not effect to those expressions...
143. lappuse - My opinion is that the Establishment is formed, not for the purpose of making the Church political, but for the purpose of making the State religious: that an Establishment, with an enlightened toleration, is as necessary to the peace of the State, as to the maintenance of religion, without which the State can have no solid peace...
120. lappuse - On re-hearings it is always competent to read the evidence given in the cause, though it was not read in the Court below, either by the counsel or the Judge. Further than that the Court does not go. On appeals it only reads what has been read in the Court below, and that practice I have never departed from in any one instance. Therefore, really, before things are so represented, particularly by gentlemen with gowns on their backs, they should at least take care to be accurate, for it is their business...
