Then she went to the Exchange amongst the Merchants, but they sent her to the Priests, and said 'twas enough for them to teach; therefore they had no Relief for her; so poor Honesty being slighted by all, died a miserable Death for want of Relief.

An essay concerning the nature of the priesthood. Shewing, that it was not originally confined to a particular order of men, and never to the first-born: that under the Jews the ceremonial law was the care of the priests, the moral law that of the prophets: that among the heathens, the philosophers were to them what the prophets were to the Jews; to whom (and not to the sons of Aaron) the Christian priests are successors. By the Right Reverend Joseph Story, Lord Bishop of Killmore.

That there was a more General Vertue in the grossest Times of Paganism, than there has been since our Saviour came into the World. IV. That there is a more General Vertue in other Parts of the Globe, than in the Christian World. V. That there was a more General Vertue in our own Nation in the Times of our Ancestors, than there is in our own Times; and that Priestcraft, and Corruption of Manners, have increas'd together.
