Indirect

Imagination

from the practise of the Inquisition. Autos da fè
might serve in several points as models for the
autos de justizia. [Applied to incendiaries]
the coats variegated embroider'd with flames, if they did
not announce the punishment, might however
bring to view the recollection of the offence. awaken the
keep alive the indignation
of the spectator
by keepin fixing imprinting in
his mind the idea
of the offence.
I
take for granted all along that something like
design is observed in the distribution of the
punishments: and that they are not as
in England by the English law scatter'd like the contents of Pandoras
box scatter'd at random among the crowd without regard
to the offend offence. I would not put the
sunburst coat the coat of flames upon the
back of a coiner, though the lawyers of good old England English lawyers have
thought fit in their wisdom to annex to the species of fraud
in question this horrid punishment, [wherever reserved
by their distinguishing mercy for
the offender is of] the tender sex.
