AREOPAGITICA
A SPEECH
FOR THE LIBERTY OF UNLICENSED PRINTING TO THE
PARLIAMENT OF ENGLAND
BY
JOHN MILTON
This is true Liberty when free born men
Having to advise the public may speak free,
Which he who can, and will,deserv's high praise,
Who neither can nor will,may hold his peace;
What can be juster in a State than this?
Euripid.Hicetid.
