SUPREMACY OF THE LAW
" We are struggling for a great cause — the cause of the supremacy of the Law. Britons, of all men, should he enthusiastic for such a cause for supremacy of the Law is the foundation Of all our polity. On that principle, depend our liberty, our stability, our prosperity. Hear what a great Elizabethan said of it: ' Of Law there can he no less acknowledged than that her seat is the bosom of God, the harmony of the world. All things do her homage, the very least as feeling her care, and the greatest as not exempted from her power/ That is well said, and I am convinced that peace can be maintained by the supremacy of the Law and nothing else."' 0
