10.25

He that runs away from his Master is a Fugitive; now the Law 16 is every Man's Master, and therefore he that Transgresses it is a Desertor. And under this Character we may range all those that are dissatisfied with the Administration of the World; Angry at what is past, and Uneasy about the Future : For these People were it in their Power would set aside that Justice which gives every one his Due, and break through the Orders of Providence.
