Brougham Exordium
J.B.'s situation

JB. free from
all such restraint

Thus much for Henry Brougham Not so Jeremy Bentham. No straight waistcoat
had he ever had his waist ever been encircled.
Free as air had he been preaching before Henry
Brougham came into existence. upon the
subject and its name had he been have his eyes been looking for more
— much more than half a century.

JB discovered the
corruption and
abomination when
attending Blackstone's
lectures 65 or 66 years
ago

"They are all corrupt and became abominable;
"there is none that doeth good: no not one" Thus says
a King of the Jews speaking of — we do not exactly at this moment at
this moment remember who. Thus spoke the King
of the Radicals (as he has been stiled as they stile him) speaking of the
law and lawyers. "Life is a cheat test:" and all things
shew it I thought so once, and now I know it
Thus says the man who was Gay by name, whatever
he was by nature: thus writes the man who
being gay by nature continues gay at a little short
of 82. In an Oxford Lecture room Some 65 or 66 years ago, what Paul was
to , Bentham was to Blackstone. Six Three weeks
had not elapsed when while the Professor was palavering
the this pupil, (so he has been often heard declaring)
this perfect- 13 as to year of being out of his teens
smelt a rat.

JB. has obtained
compleat knowledge
of the corruption when
the the effects of feegathering were
unfolded to his view

To know what a thing is thoroughly compleatly you must know
says somebody somewhere the causes of it. what it is Of the corruption
in question above spoken of not before t'other day thus compleat
was the knowledge of Jeremy Bentham. That day
was the day on which the nature and effects of the
official remuneration in the shape of fees, is in a word the
fee gathering unfolded themselves to his f view
