By WILLIAM IACKSON, One who hath lived to see the Famine of Justice removed, and hopes to see it continue as plen∣tifully amongst us; as Food in Samaria; after the flight of these Assirians: 2 Kings, 7.

Themistocles postulanti a se Simonidi ut sententiā quādam injustam ferret; Ne{que} tu (inquit) poeta bonus esses si praeter numerum caneres, ne{que} ego princeps probus si contra Leges judicarem: Plut. in. vit. Themist.

Leges Sapientū causà positae, non ut injurijs abstineam sed ne eis afficiamur: Epicur. ex Stob. Serm. 41.
