1822. July 2
Constitut. Code

3. Now as to the Priest. In the sinister operation likewise Delusion is the instrument most in use.
In him may be seen another of the Monarchs corporeal instruments, of which
delusion is the principally employed incorporeal instrument
in the sinister operations of the Priest. Force, physical force
is altogether out of hi belongs not to his provision. Intimidation, yes.
But it is by delusion that the intimidation is produced.
The God Divinity spring from the brain of the Lawyer is Common
Law. The Divinity spring from the brain of the Priest
is Religion. The business of the Lawyer is to be in the first
place the will of the Monarch, in the next place his own, those
are the ends of acts the principal and the subordinate. In this the
business of the Lawyer and that of the Priest agree. Where The difference
has place between them lies in the means: The Lawyer as such in the different forces
and degrees they employ. For The Lawyer is
such the sum of the he holds out is confined to the
life: the Priest provides a life of his own invention a life which
he fills with instruments of an all comprehensive instrument of intimidation – infinite – in which a life composed the most of torments, in an intensity, and duration infinite. The lawyer in the bitterest
of his infliction left the sufferer victim unbereft of hope: hope of
seeing the termination of them in death: this last consolation is
torn from him by the Priest: the tyranny of the lawyer is
improved upon taken in hand by him improved upon by him to the highest
degree – and from finite the suffering and the despair are
rendered infinite.

A life plied with torment in comparison of which
the most excruciating torments known by any man's experience
would be consummate pleasure or by one general position rule
declared to be the lot of everything in the shape of man.
But to the general in some indeterminate small number
may be
exceptions may perhaps per adventure be found. To take a his chance
for constituting one of those exceptions the first thing a man
has to do is to do in all things as far as his or her power
the will of the Monarch, to the perpetrator of what evil production of human
misery in what quantity soever happens not it may come to be chance to be directed.
