Excerpt from Poems in the North Yorkshire Dialect

The mischievous interference of governments in theology has in all ages caused immense crime and misery; and until mankind come to regard religion as a thing entirely between themselves and their Heavenly Father, with which no human authority has the least right to interfere, and mere speculative opinions as matters for which no man is to be called to account by his fellow man, much less to be made to suffer pains and penalties, there can be no real civil and religious liberty; and without civil and religious liberty no people can he truly happy. Under the cloak of religion, spoliation and persecution, generation after generation, were perpetrated on the poor population of that noble island, whose savage kerns, under proper government, might have been developed into one of the finest peoples on this planet.
