A discourse concerning riots occasioned by some of the people called Quakers, being imprisoned and indicted for a riot, for only being at a peaceable meeting to worship God / written by one of that people, Thomas Ellwood.	1683		.xml	application/xml	8982	376	68	It is used again , Tit. 1.6 . where it is required that the Children of such as were to be ordained Elders , should be [ 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 ] not accused of Riot , that is , of leading a dissolute and profuse life . But on the other hand , if they had gone in privy Coats of Plate , Shirts of Mail , or the like , to the intent to defend themselves from some Adversary , This ( saies he ) seems not punishable within these Statutes ; and the Reason he gives is , For that there is nothing openly done in terrorem populi , to the terrour of the People Keeble ( treating of Riots , and reciting the words of Lambard though he cites Crompton for the Author ) saies , to use Horns on Midsummer-night in London , or on May-day in the Country , for sport only , is no such offence ( that is , is no Riot ) seeing no terrour followeth it ; and the words [ in terrorem populi ] seem , saies he to be material in an Indictment of this kind .
