1828 Aug. 25
Blackstone

So much for Blackstone. Now then, how stands the
case in reality. By a right we do we not always mean a benefit something beneficial?
by a duty do not we always mean a burthen something more or less burthensome? And
are not benefits and burthens, though as above so necessary
accompaniments of concomitant to each other, essentially different and
even opposite? Would he have consented to have nothing
but duties? and that all rights should be stored among
everybody else's.

This coat of yours which is so useful to me – is it
made yours any otherwise than by your a having a right to
wear it and so forth, while Cupidus and every body else
are laid under the obligation or as Blackstone would say charged with the duty, of not meddling with it, nor in
any other way obstructing you, in the making of those
ones which you are have a right to number of it.

As well might he have said informed us that Father Husband
and Wife are one and the same person, because
a Husband can not be such unless he has a Wife,
nor a Wife such unless she has a Husband.
