offender, for which the punishment in question
is proposed to be was has been inflicted. The proposal of this
object is of course confined in the first place to the cases in which
a specific damage has been sustained: in the
next place among these and of these <add>that number</add> to the case where the damage
is of a nature not unsusceptible of compensation
are of a magnitude beyond every f that of any
the greatest mass of compensation the matter of capable of being collected
and appropriated to the purpose.

the application infliction of each respective proposed mode of punishment.
This last may be termed a collateral or secondary
end, with deference to the three former, which may be in comparison of this, may be termed direct or primary.
I will now now then, my Lord request the favour of Your Lordships

rival modes with reference to those four ends considered
in the first place a priori in respect of the nature
of each mode of punishment considered in itself
in the next place a posteriori in the ground of actual
experience.
