1.
Logical high-flier's
or Cloud climber's device
Exposition. How
to define a thing which
under its proper name
is by the dyslogisticalness
of such proportions
indefinable
look out for some
eulogistic or
name under which
it may be included

When presented under it any of its proper and peculiar
name the thing denominations a thing which you have to defend is plainly
indefensible, look out for this device consists in devising some word or appellative
of more exclusive signification some word or appellative
which in its signification included the
signification of which has by accident or design been so
constructed as to comprehend along with the indefensible
object some other object which is generally by the public eye
regarded justly or unjustly with or without reason with favour or at any rate with indifference.

By this means the terms any marks of approbation which
if bestowed upon the object under that name which is
peculiar to it, would, instead of congenial approbation,
be apt to excite draw call forth from the breast on the part of the reader
auditor or reader sentiments of disapprobation, and
aversion directed to toward the object in question and from thence
also as it were by reflection toward yourself, may take their chance for
being productive of the desired effect desired of the effect proposed
to be accomplished.
