be regulated by a variety of circumstances , such as the repetition of the offence , and also by what the Honourable Member bad alluded to , namely , the mode of conducting the prisoner ' s defence . All these circumstances the judge must consider in inflicting punishment . With respect to the prayer of the petition , he should not object to its being brought up , although he was inclined to think there was a
remedy at law to which the petitioner might resort ^ Mr . Monck said * the sooner we put an end to these prosecutions the better , and particularly for the Church . Nothing could be more errodeous than to think
of putting down opinions by law—they should be met by argument and example . Mr . Hume said , he thought it right to add , that this gentleman had opened a chapel in Dublin , but he was attacked by the mob arid driven from it .
The petition , of which the following is a copy , was then laid on the table . " To the Honourable the Knights , Citizens and Burgesses in Parliament assembled . " The Petition of the Reverend Robert
Taylor , Clerk , Bachelor of Arts , Chaplain and Secretary of the Society of Universal Benevolence in Dublin , residing at No , 2 , Water Lane , Fleet Street , London , " Sweweth—That your petitioner is a regular and canonically-ordained
Clergyman of the Established Church . That having been duly educated in the University of Cambridge , and having acquired all the learning and kuowledge deemed necessary to the accomplishment of a
Christian Minister , he entered into holy orders with entire sincerity of heart . That having for upwards of five years officiated in his ministry with great acceptance to the congregations committed to his charge , and never having incurred

nor deserved any ecclesiastical censure his more extended Inquiries and increase of knowledge since acquired , under the influence of that same principle of sincerity by which he hath been ever actuated , have given him reason to * reject those things as fabulous and false , which , in his less informed state of mind , he held to be sacred and true .
< Your petitioner , therefore * humbly prayeth that he may have liberty to teach and preach the great truths and obligations of Natural Religion , Which he now holdeth to be that alone which hath Almighty God for its author , and alone
sufficient to make men wise and happy , as opposed to the jargon of scriptural theology , which your petitioner conscientiously believes to be as false as God is true , and which , therefore , can only tend to make them stupid , miserable and wicked .
•'¦ And your petitioner prayeth that it may be lawful for him to open a chapel for the public worship of Almighty God on the principles of Reason and Universal Benevolence , without reference or respect to any authority of that statute-book of the law of the land vulgarly called the Holy Bible : and that the chapel so to
be opeued may be under legal protection from all such assaults , interruptions and murderous violence , as the Methodists and Evangelicals of Dublin attempted against the person of your petitioner when officiating at the chapel of the Society of Universal Benevoleuce in that
city , on the 28 th of March last : and that like allowance and protection of law may be continued to all chapels opened upon the principles of Natural Religion , till their security against the rage of evangelical intolerance shall be established in the acquiescence of an enlightened people .
