Ch. 1. Fallacies here in

But Anglica,
a seat of supreme
government not
being the only situation
on, from or to
which fallacies
are wont to be addressed,
hence
the need of taking
into account the
situation.
But, as, in this country, the seat of supreme government
is not the only theatre station situation, in which, from which,
or to which discourses intended capable of operating
in the character of instruments of persuasion, or the
occasion of a decision expected or desired to be taken respecting measures a measure
of government, as above, are [not only capable of being but]
in use to be uttered delivered, hence it is that in considering
the nature and quality of the instrument so employed applied
to the purpose in question on the occasion in question, as
above, the consideration of the situations respectively
occupied by the two parties in question, viz. the utterer
and the intended acceptor of the intended instrument
of persuasion , ought never to be wholly overlooked out of mind.

Because without
just cause for
shame, there are
situations without
doors to in which an
ear may be lent
to this or that instrument of
persuasion to
which it could not
be lent within-doors
[Per Authority-worshippers]
Why? because in the course of this enquiry instruments this or that instrument of persuasion might be
and will in the course of these pages this enquiry be brought to view
to which while in one of these stations viz. the inferior
one ear might be leant lent, in another viz. the superior
might could not be lent, without a certain degree of
shame, — always supposing that unfitness for the station
occupied by him, be in the case of a public man
a just cause of shame. +

On the station of
the persuasion ad quaere
and a qua, depends
the degree of legitimately
persuasive force
In other words partly on the station of the persona ad quaere
partly on that of the persona a qua the person to whom the argu as that of the person by whom in the character of an instrument
of persuasion, the discourse in question
it being in the subject in question, is delivered, depends the
degree of its legitimately persuasive force.
