| C.N. Douglas, comp. Forty Thousand Quotations: Prose and Poetical. 1917. | | | | Faction |
| | | | So false is faction, and so smooth a liar, |
| As that it never had a side entire. |
Daniel. | 1 |
| | Seldom is factions ire in haughty minds |
| Extinguishd but by death: it oft like fire |
| Suppressd, breaks forth again, and blazes higher. |
May. | 2 |
| | Avoid the politic, the factious fool, |
| The busy, buzzing, talking hardend knave; |
| The quaint smooth rogue that sins against his reason, |
| Calls saucy loud sedition public zeal, |
| And mutiny the dictates of his spirit. |
Otway. | 3 | | |
