suspended. Thus a man may be disabled from beating
another either by being held fast, or by having been knockd

—By moral or mental coercion. Disablement may be said to be effected by [moral or
mental] coercion of the mental or moral kind, when
the physical faculty remaining uneffected, the will of propensity

which in the two last cases when the disablement is effected in either of the two last
ways is of the acute kind: if in the first, if it is if not acute
it is at least unpleasant. either of the acute kind is at least of the unpleasant. This pain therefore
must be taken into the account along with the
mischief of the disablement in order to be set in ballance against
