500 | _a"We order that the clergy must not be jesters, goliards, or buffoons; if they pursue such disgraceful accomplishments for a whole year, they are to be stripped of all ecclesiastical privileges. Pope Boniface VIII (ca. 1298 CE)". | ||
500 | _a"[Dr. Swift] can Preach and read Prayers in the Morning, write Baudy in the Afternoon, banter Heaven and Religion and write prophanely at Night, and then read Prayers and Preach again the next Morning, and so on in a due Rotation of Extremes; [he] is much fitter than I am for turning the Tears of the Unhappy into a Ballad, and making a Mock of human Misery. Daniel Defoe (1726)". | ||
