George Gordon Byron Quotes

But Suppose It Past, - Suppose One Of These Men, As I Have Seen Them Meagre With Famine, Sullen With Despair, Careless Of A Life Which Your Lordships Are Perhaps About To Value At Something Less Than The Price Of A Stocking-frame ; Suppose This Man Surrounded By Those Children For Whom He Is Unable To Procure Bread At The Hazard Of His Existence, About To Be Torn For Ever From A Family Which He Lately Supported In Peaceful Industry, And Which It Is Not His Fault Than He Can No Longer So Support; Suppose This Man - And There Are Ten Thousand Such From Whom You May Select Your Victims, - Dragged Into Court To Be Tried For This New Offence, By This New Law, - Still There Are Two Things Wanting To Convict And Condemn Him, And These Are, In My Opinion, Twelve Butchers For A Jury, And A Jefferies For A Judge!
