has no place
with either of the two
groupes of offences against

respect to title.

a distinct class of
Offences.

of a genus, no proof of
the severity – a Code
enacting that who so
does any thing, shall
be put to death, wd.
be the most severe

dependent on the
number of offences
created by it.

But, to the minuteness
of this additional
severity, no limits;
nor to the diminution
of the aggregate severity,
by a single word.

Effect depends not on
the number of words,
but on the amplitude
of the names.
