Fornication. It is not at any rate the same thing to the chiIdren~ Again, as the marriage rite being a mere form, and that also variable, the same may be ~aid of signing and sealing of bonds, wills, deeds of conveyance, and the like, which yet make a great difference in the rights and obligations of the parties concerned in them. And with respect to the rite not being appointed in scripture-the script"ures forbid fornication, that is, cohabitation without marriage, leaving it to the law of each coun try to pr0flounce what is, or what makes a marriage; in like manner as they forbid thefts, that is, the taking away of another's property, leaving it to the municipal law to fix what makes the ching property, or whose it is, which also, as well as marriage, depends upon arbitrary and mtltable forms~ Lajing aside the injunctions of scripture, the plain account of the question seems to be this : It is immoral, because it is pernicious, that men and \\70__ ~en ShOllld cohabit, without undertaking certain irrevocable obligations, and mutually conferring certain civil rights ; if, therefc)re, the law has annexed these rights and obligations to certain forms, so that they cannot be secured or undertaken by any other means, which is the case here (for whatever the parties may promise to each other, nothing but the marriage ceremony can make their promise irrevocable) it becomes in the same degree immoral, that men and \\YOlllen should cohabit without the interposition of these forms. If fornication be criminal, all those incentives which lead to it are acccssaries to the crime, as lascivious conversation, whether expressed in obscene or disguised under modest phrases ; also wanton songs, pictures, books; the writing, publishing, amI circulating of which, \vhether out of frolic, or for· some pitiful profit, is produ.ctive of so extensive a
Seduct;~n. 201 mischief from so mean a temptation, that few crimes, within the re~ch of private wickedness, have more to answer for, or less to plead in their excuse. Indecent conversation, and by parity of reason aft the rest, are forbidden by St. Paul, Eph. iv. 29. "Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth:" And again, CoL iii. 8. "Put offfilthy
