(3 Instruments
State here the state of things under corrupution when at its maximum.
2. Delusion. In so far As Corruption is barren of the evils
which, as above, have been seen produced by force and intimidation,
in so far as applied to the evil purpose in question, so,
with the exception of that delusion which has religion for its sub-
instrument as above below, is delusion.
Delusion operates partly by means of the matter of corruption as
its sub-instrument, partly by other means. In so far as, for the purpose
of delusion, no other means than those employed for the purpose of
corruption are employed, in so far to the purpose of delusion no addition
is made to the amount of force and intimidation employed,
or to the amount of the evils thereby as above produced: on the contrary,
in so far as in addition to the quantity employed for the purpose
of corruption any quantity of money is extracted for the special purpose
of delusion, over and above whatever would have been extracted for
the purpose of corruption, here then is so much evil to be set down
to the account of delusion alone.
