Of the mischief of duelling
a very small part visible
to prejudiced eyes

Of the mischief produced in society by the practice of
Duelling, only no more than a very small part is visible
to eyes blinded by habit and prejudices: neither of the

consequences they are not worth thinking of; not the promotion
of order but the destruction of criminals is within the
