Gangrened

"Yes, when the offender can be judged by laws: But when his greatness overturns the scales, Then kings are justice in the last appeal, And, forced by strong necessity, may strike; In which, indeed, they assert the public good, And, like sworn surgeons, lop the gangrened limb: Unpleasant, wholesome, work."

"How different a representation is this from the prejudice and passion of Gangræna Edwards himself, more gangrened than any of his unhappy sectaries."
