Canon-Law.
IF I would study the Canon-Law as it is used in England, I must study the Heads here in use, then go to the Practi∣sers in those Courts where that Law is practised, and know their Customs, so for all the Study in the World.
Ceremony.
CEremony keeps up all things; ’Tis like a Penny-Glass to a rich Spi∣rit, or some excellent Water, without it the Water were spilt, the Spirit lost.
Of all People Ladies have no reason to cry down Ceremonies; for they take themselves slighted without it. And were they not used with Ceremony, with Complements and Addresses, with Legs and Kissing of Hands, they were the pi∣tifulest Creatures in the World; but yet methinks to kiss their Hands after their Lips, as some do, is like little Boys, that after they eat the Apple, fall to the Paring, out of a Love they have to the Apple.
