Psalm 2:3 Douay-Rheims

Let us break their bonds asunder: and let us cast away their yoke from us.

George Leo Haydock

1774–1849 Catholic

Us. Let us no longer be subject to the old law, which is abrogated, (St. Augustine) or the enemies of David, and of Christ, encourage one another (Calmet) to subvert their authority, before it be too well established. Protestants still seem to be actuated with the same phrensy; fearing nothing more than the restoration of the Catholic religion [in Great Britain]; and incessantly pouring in petitions to [the British] Parliament to withhold the common rights of subjects from people of that [Catholic] persuasion. (Haydock) — “I fear there are more political than religious objectors to emancipation [of Catholics in Great Britain].” (Nightingale)
