II Doctrine
Ch. Persuasion
§ Power over
R

1
Such the generation
of persuasion.
Instruments of its
generation the understanding
and the
will. p.1

2
Correspondent to the
instrument employed
is the mode in
which the effect is produced.
p.1

3
When the instrument
is the understanding
alone the mode is legitimate.
p.1

4
Where the will as
well as understanding
the mode is illegitimate.
p.1

5
Where the will is employed
the mode is most
complicated. p.1

6
In this mode are two
courses direct simple and
indirect complex. p.1

7
In the simple course
the persuasion is immediate
without another
man's instrumentality
— Here
the process is self deceptive
set agoing by
punishment or reward
& composed of two parts
the restrictive and agglutinative.

8
The course is complex
when to persuade B.
the faculties of A are
applied.

Here the instrument
applied to B is the
declaration of A.

Then in the Ccase of
B. the persuasion is
adoptive p.2

9
The instrumental
declaration
may be
obtained in two ways
but both illegitimate.
1. Supposing it false
either the falsity
must be known &
the declaration a lie
or the shame may
be saved by the self-
blinding process.
p.2

10
2. If true, the mode
being illegitimate
the self deceptive process
must have produced
it. p.3

11
In this case between
the application of
force to the declarant
and the belief, time
must elapse. p.3.

12.
Thus with or without
falsehood by force
applied to A. who is
to act as a decoy-duck
is a declaration of persuasion
produced which produces
from B. a like declaration
which in him may be sincere
(there is adoptive persuasion)

13
In these cases the instrument
is force in its
largest sense — To the
effectiveness of this instrument
it is not necessary
that the reward
or punishment should
be at his disposal who
produces the effect or
that the expectation
of reward or punishment
should be well-
founded. Groundless
expectation just as
forcible. p.4

14
Thus by force has
belief been produced
in false religious as
well as the true ones
and in breasts no wise
proportioned in number
to the truth &c of the
persuasion. p.4

(a) Reason and authority
as instruments of
persuasion put in
opposition to one another.
p.5

Authority ut supra
coercive and intellectual
p.5

Contradistinguished
to authority reason
may be right or deceptious.

Both proceed on evidence
& argument p.5
