Miscell. 1.

Prefat

The same terms will to different persons carry
[convey] a different signification; a signification
more or less ample extensive; of greater or less extent. Hence
an enumeration or division which may appearing
exhaustive to me has been given for such by
me, will may appear not exhaustive but defective
to another person.

This wonderworking all-powerful institution must needs be as
brilliant in itself as it is rare and marvellous in itself its effects: it
must be something of a very different cast from &
of a nature altogether superior to those vulgar expedients
by means of which the same ends are endeavoured to
be compassed in the routine of legislation.

In point of fact — however nature I fear is
not quite so rich in her resources nor so lavish
in her favours as these benevolent speculations sanguine
philanthropists appear to have imagined. If say
since the keeping ourselves bent upon grasping at
what is beyond our reach serves only to make us
neglect what is before our eyes
