1819 June 1
Deontology Private

Prudence is Beneficence – and Extra-regarding Prudence.
Conduct of the individual in the distribution of the good and
evil applied in the exercise of the power of the retributive Sanction.

Conduct of the individual in the character of Judge in
the tribunal of the popular or moral sanction.

It should be restricted and guided by the same rules
mutatis mutandis, as that of the legal political sanction.

In the strict application of evil, by the punitory branch, care
should be taken in like manner never to apply it in gratification
of mere antipathy: never but in so far as it is deemed
subservient to and necessary for the purpose of one or more of
the proper ends of punishment, nor determent of others by the
example, determent of the transgressor himself, i.e. reformation,
or disablement: viz disabling him from infliction the like evil
on himself or others: and in each of these cases the quantity
should not be more than sufficient for the production of the good aimed at – for the accomplishment of the benevolent purpose,
nor should it be inflicted even in that case of the quantity of
go evil thus produced could be greater than the quantity
of evil excluded, or more than equivalent to the quantity
of good produced.
