13 § 1 Abstract
Part 5. Power over persuasion

To have this may be satisfaction: answer to
or else it is equally competent to use the deceiving
and employ the same course, by , on each side
and and on every side

3. By every one who
approves the forcibly
deceptive process, evidence
is afforded that he
does not believe
these facts propositions
asserted.
3. By every one by when the application of the forcibly-deceptive
process has been conceived on, and as well as <add>as also</add> by way
or by whom such application that operation is solicited, supported,
defended recommended or approved, evidence is afforded [evidence of
the circumstantial kind] operating in proof of the proposition
that by that persua according to the persuasion of, to in a greater or less proportion
the body of supposed facts the existence of which narrated by it is in and
by that asserted, and the body of propositions contained in it the truth of
which are asserted, are not true.

For unless men
have a falseh
propensity to falshood
the odium & trouble
will be incurred
to no use
For, unless there in his opinion there exists on the
part of mankind in general, when left free without force or forced to form their own
persuasions each man has his own persuasion, a predominant
propensity to embrace falshood in preference to truth - to form
wrong opinions instead of right ones, the trouble and odium
attached over and above the just mentioned circumstantial evidence of
falshood and insincerity attached to the employment employing of this
forcibly deceptive process - will be so much trouble taken
and odium incurred to no use.

In answer the
advocate of force
can only say that
though he is a
friend to truth
all others prefer
falshood.
In For answer to this objection observation <add>argument</add> there remains in the it
is true, is the character of an argument capable of being
employed by an advocate of the forcibly-deceptive system, an
assertion to that effect, viz. Though when left free and adequately informed mankind in general
are disposed and apt to embrace tru falshood in preference to truth, I, am
I, am an exception to this rule. It is a gift peculiar to myself
or shared with only a few whose persuasions accord with
mine. to embrace truth in preference to falshood. In
the present instance having accordingly embraced truth, and
seeing at the same time a majority of the persons concerned labouring
under the opposite unhappy propensity, I take this method of
of preserving them against from
the unhappy consequences.
