A person," says the same author, " may
swear, that he has not done a thing, though he
" actually have j by understanding within him-
'*
self, that he did it not on such a day, or
*'
before he was born :—And this is a thing of
*'
great convenience on many occasions ; and
**
is always justifiable, when it is necessary or
" advantageous in any thing which concerns a
**
person's health, honour, or estate *."
'*
Considering justice simply in itself,'* says
Escobar, " a judge may lawfully take a sum of
'*
money to give sentence for which of the par-
" ties he pleases, when both have an equal

right ;—If a judge receive a bribe to pass a
" just sentence, he is bound to restore it ; be-
**
cause he ought to do justice \vithout a bribe

and therefore, the party has nothing for his
" money, but what is his right : but if the
" judge be bribed to pass an unjust sentence,
' he is not obliged in conscience to make any
*'
restitution f."

If a man," says he farther, " intend to
*'
hear mass as he ought, he fully performs the
" duty ; nor does any other evil intention, such
*'
as looking lustfully at women, make against
it
