C 9 Of Extenuations — Reasons

to do so and so to you, he did not mean to execute
his threats: and that you knew as much:
and that the business of menacement was concerted
between you and him, in order that you might
have this extenuation to avail yourself of.

2. Because of the variations to which the force of
the menacement is liable. The magnitude of or to speak mo
the mischief or (to speak more precisely) the value
of the mischief threaten'd may have born any
ratio to that of the ordinary punishment for the
offence. It may have been such as any man
of any degree of courage, being at the same
time a man of ordinary prudence would have
been governed by: it may have been such
as a man of ordinary courage and prudence
would not have been governed by: it might
may have been such, as the not having been
governed by, indicates a greater or less want of
proper courage. If then it were necessary to inflict the
whole punishment or none, it would must sometimes
happen that a case meet for punishment
would go without it, at other times that the punishment
would be too severe.
