S.1 Adjudication Universal

Unapt

VII.1
31.238

In so far as
successful,
every such endeavour
demonstrates
Constitution's inefficiency
to its professed end — viz.
greatest happiness &
and that it is the interest
of greatest number
to substitute to a Constitution
that admitts such
abuses the only one that

VII.2
32.239

power of contributing it
to government, actual
contribution, enacted
of the matter of corruptive
influence, encrease
of efficiency of do on
