Msfor efeiiera) Frig W The truly honourable Mr. Boyle, as emi- sent for phiiofephy as for morality, was fo careful to avoid this profane cuftom, that he never mentioned the name of God in his coiwcrfation without makingf an obfervable ^ c> paufe before it, fo that he might both feel and difFuf? among the company the venera tion due to the facred Majrfty oi the univerfe. The hrave colonel Gareincr look pains to prevent fwearing in hit reginicnt, at the head of which he would pubii iy declare his ab horrence of it, urging all his officers to avoid V hy their example, any ^'anftion to a crime which it was their duty to punith. A number of military gentlemen once dined ■svith him at his own houie, when he addreft- <d them relpedlfuny, and begged leave to remind them, that he was a juftice of the ’ peace in that Giftn£!: he wms bound by oath to put the laws agsinft fwearitjg into cxecu- tion, and therefore entreated them to be on their guard. Only one of the gentlemen of fended oti that day, who immediately paid the penalty, which was given to the poor, with the univerfal approbatioo of the company. A moment’s calm confideration wilTcon- vlnce any rational perfon of the impropriety of this cuftom, which is inexcufiabie, irra- * tionai, vulgar and profane. It is inexcufable. There is lefs tempta tion to this vice than to any other. Some vices are excufed by calling them conftitu- T-ional; but, as archbiftiop Tiliotlon obferves, no man is born with a fwearing conftitu- tion.” It cannot procure credit to an af- J fenion, becaufe it is oftener uftd to con- ^Srm a rafti or doubtful faying than a plain truth. The man who fwears feems to doubt his own veracity—and w-ell may others fuf- pedi it; for how can we believe he w'ili be true to m.m who is falfc to God ? Befides, ths cuftom of fwearin^ to truths may infen- fibly lead a man to fwear faifhoods. Per- ^ fons addidfed to this pra£lice fearedy know when they fweai ; and fome, when reprov-» ed for it, have fworn that they did not fwear It is irrational. ^Fliat greater proof of iliipid ignorance can be given than to uTe words wkhout meaning ? You call upon God ((hocking ro repeat) to damn yoUr eyes-^ yoar blood—your fouls. Bat have you eon- hdered what damnation h ? ft is a word of dieadfui meaning.
