Regular false distinction of unanimity by one person

Meantime it must be confessed,that howsoever in many of This it is that if in those as yet untried instances
the utility of it may be unquestionable, the
necessity — the need of it may not be be found to stand altogether so clear
of dispute.

In many of those instances to produce mendacity
in any quantity that can be desired, torture
is the less necessary, the more easily and pleasantly

which it acts in the opinion of people without doors,

in a state of diametrical opposition to the interest of the
people and the ends of justice.
