Excerpt from The Profits of Religion: An Essay in Economic Interpretation

I step up, and in timid tones begin, Reverend sir, will you tell me by what right you take this wealth?

Instantly a frown comes upon his face, and he cries in a voice of thunder, Blasphemer! And all the Boot strap-lifters desist from their lifting, and menace me with furious looks. There is a general call for a policeman of the Wholesale Pickpockets' Association; and so I fall silent, and slink away in the throng, and thereafter keep my thoughts to myself.
