1821. April 24.

III. Delusion. It remains to be shown how it is that, byone
and the same quantity of the matter of wealth consumed in waste -
wasted in the main endeavour to inject an additional quantity of
happiness into a receptacle over and over again disabled from the capacity
of receiving any more - how, by this same quantity of wealth,
in addition to the purpose of producing corrupt obsequiousness, the purpose
of producing delusions is but effectually and extensively accomplished.

In the case where production of corrupt obsequiousness was
the object, the persons on to over whom the operation was performed were the
sub-ruling influential and opulent few, with no other addition than
that of that comparatively small portion of the subject many, to the
whom the corruptive influence
of those their superiors could be applied
for the purpose of
effect of producing correspondent corrupt obsequiousness. the corruptive influence
of those their superiors could be extended. applied In the ease of delusion, the
person, in whose instance on whomon whom the operation is performed the effect is endeavoured
to be produced, are, in addition to the subruling, the influential and
the opulent few - (for these are not less exposed to, nor less susceptible
of, the delusion than the many)- the subject many likewise: in a
word, the whole of the community without exception - the Royal Lead Chief
himself, by whom the benefit profit of the delusion was reaped in the greatest
abundance, not excepted.

By delusion, on this occasion as on others, understand
On this as on other occasions, such is the ambiguity and imperfection
of language, to the word delusions as to so many others
that exhibit the same grammatical form, sometimes the an active
sense, sometimes a passive sense is attributive of this as of so
many other words wearing the same grammatical form, use is
made sometimes in an active, sometimes in a passive sense: sometimes
it is employed to designate the act whereby an erroneous opinion
is produced, sometimes the erroneous opinion so produced
