'Tis good to try to bring People to a right understanding of the Case; but if they grow troublesome, be govern'd by your own Conscience, and never ask any bodies leave to be Honest. If there comes a force upon you, and stops your Progress, disengage and be easy, and make a Virtue of Necessity. Remember that you undertook the Business, upon the condition of its being Feasible, and ner'e pretended to grasp at Impossibilities. What was it then you aim'd at? Why to do your best, and secure your Reason. Right! And this may be effectually done, tho' the Enterprize should happen to miscarry.
