Let him run from law to law; let him fly from the common law and the sacred institutions of the country in which he was born; let him fly from acts of Parliament, from which his power originated; let him plead his ignorance of them, or fly in the face of them.

Will he fly to the Mahomedan law?
That condemns him.

Will he fly to the high magistracy of Asia to defend taking of presents?
Padishah and the Sultan would condemn him to a cruel death.

Will he fly to the Sophis, to the laws of Persia, or to the practice of those monarchs?
I cannot utter the pains, the tortures, that would be inflicted on him, if he were to govern there as he has done in a British province.

Let him fly where he will, from law to law; law, I thank God, meets him everywhere, and enforced, too, by the practice of the most impious tyrants, which he quotes as if it would justify his conduct.
