Justice was done

/ˈʤʌstɪs/ /wɒz/ /dʌn/

The word justice is usually associated with courts of law. We

/ðə/ /wɜːd/ /ˈʤʌstɪs/ /ɪz/ /ˈjuːʒʊəli/ /əˈsəʊʃɪeɪtɪd/ /wɪð/ /kɔːts/ /ɒv/ /lɔː./ /wiː/

might say that justice has been done when a man's

/maɪt/ /seɪ/ /ðæt/ /ˈʤʌstɪs/ /hæz/ /biːn/ /dʌn/ /wɛn/ /ə/ /mænz/

innocence or guilt has been proved beyond doubt. Justice is

/ˈɪnəsəns/ /ɔː/ /gɪlt/ /hæz/ /biːn/ /pruːvd/ /bɪˈjɒnd/ /daʊt./ /ˈʤʌstɪs/ /ɪz/

part of the complex machinery of the law. Those who seek it,

/pɑːt/ /ɒv/ /ðə/ /ˈkɒmplɛks/ /məˈʃiːnəri/ /ɒv/ /ðə/ /lɔː./ /ðəʊz/ /huː/ /siːk/ /ɪt,/

undertake an arduous journey and can never be sure that

/ˌʌndəˈteɪk/ /ən//ˈɑːdjʊəs//ˈʤɜːni/ /ænd/ /kæn/ /ˈnɛvə/ /biː/ /ʃʊə/ /ðæt/

they will find it. Judges, however wise oreminent,are

/ðeɪ/ /wɪl/ /faɪnd/ /ɪt./ /ˈʤʌʤɪz,/ /haʊˈɛvə/ /waɪz/ /ɔːr/ /ˈɛmɪnənt,/ /ɑː/

human and can make mistakes.

/ˈhjuːmən/ /ænd/ /kæn/ /meɪk/ /mɪsˈteɪks./

There are rare instances when justice almost ceases to be an

/ðeər/ /ɑː/ /reər/ /ˈɪnstənsɪz/ /wɛn/ /ˈʤʌstɪs/ /ˈɔːlməʊst/ /ˈsiːsɪz/ /tuː/ /biː/ /æn/

abstract conception. Reward or punishment are meted out

/ˈæbstrækt/ /kənˈsɛpʃən./ /rɪˈwɔːd/ /ɔː/ /ˈpʌnɪʃmənt/ /ɑː/ /ˈmiːtɪd/ /aʊt/

quite independent of human interference. At such times,

/kwaɪt/ /ˌɪndɪˈpɛndənt/ /ɒv/ /ˈhjuːmən/ /ˌɪntəˈfɪərəns./ /æt/ /sʌʧ/ /taɪmz,/

justice acts like a living force. When we use a phrase like it

/ˈʤʌstɪs/ /ækts/ /laɪk/ /ə/ /ˈlɪvɪŋ/ /fɔːs./ /wɛn/ /wiː/ /juːz/ /ə/ /freɪz/ /laɪk/ /ɪt/

serves him right, we are, in part, admitting that a certain set

/sɜːvz/ /hɪm/ /raɪt,/ /wiː/ /ɑː,/ /ɪn/ /pɑːt,/ /ədˈmɪtɪŋ/ /ðæt/ /ə/ /ˈsɜːtn/ /sɛt/

of circumstances has enabled justice to act of its own

/ɒv/ /ˈsɜːkəmstənsɪz/ /hæz/ /ɪˈneɪbld/ /ˈʤʌstɪs/ /tuː/ /ækt/ /ɒv/ /ɪts/ /əʊn/

accord. When a thief was caught on the premises of a large

/əˈkɔːd./ /wɛn/ /ə/ /θiːf/ /wɒz/ /kɔːt/ /ɒn/ /ðə/ /ˈprɛmɪsɪz/ /ɒv/ /ə/ /lɑːʤ/

fur store one morning, the shop assistants must have found

/fɜː/ /stɔː/ /wʌn/ /ˈmɔːnɪŋ,/ /ðə/ /ʃɒp/ /əˈsɪstənts/ /mʌst/ /hæv/ /faʊnd/

it impossible to resist the temptation to say 'it serves him

/ɪt/ /ɪmˈpɒsəbl/ /tuː/ /rɪˈzɪst/ /ðə/ /tɛmpˈteɪʃən/ /tuː/ /seɪ/ /ɪt/ /sɜːvz/ /hɪm/

right'. The shop was an old-fashioned one with many large,

/raɪt./ /ðə/ /ʃɒp/ /wɒz/ /ən/ /əʊld-ˈfæʃənd/ /wʌn/ /wɪð/ /ˈmɛni/ /lɑːʤ,/

disused fireplaces and tall, narrow chimneys. '
