Ch. Of the Natural system of Procedure.
§. Recapitulation and Method.

We have now been seeing, that the existing systems of procedure
have nowhere had the legislator for their author, have every where
been the work of the Judge – have nowhere been drawn up
in a regular plan suggested dictated by a steady and comprehensive view
of the ends of justice – have every where been developped inch by
inch as occasion happened to serve.

We have now been seeing in what ode the by
workman occupied about this work was paid, and in what way he
derived from that mode a sinister interest, opposite in every point
to the interest of those on whose behalf he was employed.

We have seen, that in so far as he pursued yielded to the direction impulse
given to his hand mind by that sinister interest, a

We have seen in what compleat honesty he was enabled to yield in what perfect liberty he was left to follow
the bent impulse of that sinister interest, enabled by the plenitude of the
power with which he acted, and the rudeness, blindness ignorance, darkness, and helplessness
of the times in which he exercised wrought it.

The enquiry is now nearly ripe for passing the transition from the theory
the practice
reasoning to matter of fact, from the theory to practice, from
the primæval to the present state of things. It is now nearly ripe
for observing whether the harvest crop produced has been or has not been
confirmable to the end> serve thus whether from the tares which the
have seen some
hand of the unclean sport has been seen sowing
in the field, tares have accordingly been produced as the hunting would make persuade us, or wheat instead of
tares.
