must be seen
12. or 2.
End of the proper

of greatest number.
End of the devious
established do.,
particular and sinister

and blameless
together that would

26. or 7.

without distinction,

together, on
which the pursuer

all means of redress
for injury in
every shape refused:
licence to all persons
whatever to inflict on
them with impunity
injury in every shape.
29. or 10.
On Defendant's side –
To every person who, in
the character of pursuer,
will pay the price, license
to inflict injury
in the shape of depredation
and every other,
on every person who
can not pay the price
set upon a licence for
self defence
---page break---
30. or 11
True, along with blameless,
blameworthy
pursuits and defences
are thus excluded.
But by the indiscriminating
arrangement,
no good can
be produced, that
would not be more
surely produced by
the discriminating
one
Proportioned to the
demand in respect
of species and degree
of blame, would be
the suffering appointed
by the discriminating
arrangement:
no such proportion
is maintained by the
indiscriminating
one.
31. or 12
Not greatly in favour
of the innocent
and injured, exemption
from factitious
suffering: still further
have the founders
of the established system
been from granting
factitious relief
32. or 13.
As to interposition
of an extraneous
assistant between
party and Judge: in
this has all endeavour
and contrivance
been employed
