J.B to Spain Emancipate – Rudiments
1. Bad as for England:
much worse for Spain
2. Spain secure in Europe.
No power either disposed or
wishing to injure her.
§. VI. Virtues no security
3. Constituted authorities
will disdain all selfish
desire of patronage. Every
man disavows it in himself,
everyone imports
it to rivals and enemies;
every man is half in the
right and half in the
wrong
In every
one who takes a
part in public affairs
his a in this
sinister interest.
Waving rhetoric
let anyone who
contends for forcing
your decision – on this
name some are specific
advantage to be gained
by it.
The doctrine of the predominance
of self-regard
over social do many some
are really checked at, others
pretend to be
at.
Reason – To enable them
to deceive, by pretence
of exclusive social regard,
necessity that the
existence of it should be
believed
Like ground of expectation
that Creoles will give
wealth without equivalent
to Spanish rulers, custom
hitherto.
This a fallacious ground,
not given but through fear
of force which therein
bestowed employed consistently,
but can not be
now.

6. False security against
corruption, Rulers virtues
1. Fact, good behaviour is
inversely as power: do in
respect of public trust.
No man reckons on
principals proposing a
fine fund for trustee to
make a fortune from in
private life: never in
public.
2. Supposition, it is
directly &c
3. To keep up this de erroneous supposition
one avowed use of
dignity money. People
are forced to pay to compose
the of
deceit they are deceived
with
If reciprocity, nothing
gained, if reciprocity, injustice
to the losers.
President of the former government
will not serve
the present.
They must admitt the
badness of it.
It was by means f
new lights they were able
to subvert it. Attempt to Exclude
the new lights from America
you open eyes at once:
Refrain from excluding them
they will testify against you.
For protection of Creoles
alliance would be better
than subjection
King the sprite claw
of the Constitution

England & France – Examples
1. They can do no wrong
2. can do no wrong
3. Man who told his own lies
till he believed them.
Kings interest the same as
subjects no otherwise than as
robbers do is
do
If they unjust to Creoles,
what should make them just
as towards you?
If you too are unjust to
Creoles, you will take and
feel the consequence.
In conduct nothing but error can have
place so long as interests
so decidedly opposite, are
confounded and considered
as bad ones.
No criminal so vile
that would not have the
same worship paid to him
the same excellence ascribed
to him, as is ascribed
to the General and
his confederates.
Reason and of
ascribing to Monach
all excellence.
Causing injury done
by him to the public
not to be ascribed to them
condemned to
which in the case of a
subject they would be
ascribed.
