In Among parts jurists in general, and Protest
Generally speaking every where in every country, but under the British
constitution more particularly, the sovereign power in the state
and the legislature, are considered as synonymous or convertible terms. Supposing
the supreme power to be in a single hand as in the Russia for example, he in whose
hand it is, is on that account termed the legislator.
The Judge, though among the head servants, is but the
servant of the sovereign. To the people in general, considered
in the character of the subjects, and to the Judge in particular, the
will of the Sovereign, be he who and what he may, monocephalous or polycephalous, is the standard of rectitude, is the will of the
sovereign: – of the sovereign of the time being; the will of a
sovereign of time past form being as otherwise a portion of the the standard of rectitude,
than in virtue of the universal and universally notorious habit
of adoption in the virtue of which in a settled government the will of every past sovereign
becomes and on each occasion is considered and treated as being the will of the sovereign for the time being, and until unless by
express law declared to be so no longer so.
