After this explanation given once for all These explanations being, to avoid continually recurring
repetitions, by the word vexation will be understood no more
than the residuum of vexation left, after deduction defalcation of so
much as is produced by the two particular causes just
spoken of, viz: expence and delay – forced expence and lapse of time, and the
vast genus being thus reduced to a species – the three species – vexation,
expence, delay and vexation (viz: the residual vexation
containing the whole remainder after deduction of much as hath
and had forced expence or lapse of time for its cause) may thus been produced, understand to the parties or one of them by force expence or
lapse of time, may thus stand together upon the same line.
To such of the evils thus denominated corresponds a
distinct collateral end of the system of procedure: the
avoid avoidance of vexation is the f one constitutes one such end: the sort
of vexation is the consequently accordingly the evil opposite to that end:
and so in the case of expence, and delay.
First These several collateral ends
Further on we shall have there will be occasion to speak
of those other collateral ends under the name of ultimate
collateral ends. Why utlimate? because it is by sound ultimate the produce the evils respectively
produced by them it is by the ultimate decision pronounced
in the cause, that the evils respectively opposite to them, the
evils in the which they in the in the avoidance of which they respectively
consist, are respectively produced. To distinguish from those
ultimate collateral ends, the three ends here in question, let them
be called incidental: they from so many sets of incidents in
the cause: is done throughout its whole course as it runs on,
they continue springing up as it were under the first.
