Alice More
Arrest him!
More
Why, what has he done?
Margaret More
He's bad!
More
There is no law against that.
Will Roper
There is! God's law!
More
Then God can arrest him.
Alice
While you talk, he's gone!
More
And go he should, if he was the Devil himself, until he broke the law!
Roper
So now you'd give the Devil benefit of law!

Roper

More
Oh? And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned round on you, where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country's planted thick with laws from coast to coast– man's laws, not God's– and if you cut them down—and you're just the man to do it—do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? Yes, I'd give the Devil benefit of law for my own safety's sake.
