Note on J.B. in p.85

In the 85th of 120 8vo pages of which in its colourful and
corrected form this justly celebrated speech is composed is a Note
in the term following. It is fitting that we speak with
reverence even of the unfounded doubts of so great
a man & profound a Jurieonsult as Mr. Bentham.
He is, beyond all dispute, the first who taught men
to examine the foundations of our Institutions,
and the abuses that have grown up with them.
Sir S. Romilly was the first to question them
in Parliament.
