-----------------------------------------------------------
Shall they, as have brought hedges about common pastures, enclose with
their intolerable lusts also all the commodities and pleasures of this
life, which Nature, the parent of us all would have common?.....now that it
comes to extremity, we will also prove extremity; rend down hedges, fill up
ditches, make way for everyman into the common pasture.--Anon, 1609
------------------------------------------------------------

"...not only this Common, or Heath should be taken in and Manured by the
People, but all the Commons and waste Ground in England, and in the whole
World,
shall be taken in by the People in righteousness, not owning any Property;
but
taking the Earth to be a Common Treasury, as it was first made for all." -
