22 Jany 1809

What it was necessary the draughtman should avoid
including in his prohibitive operations — what accordingly
he has over left unincluded in them and not improbably
because he had noticed it, and he had it being in his contemplation, he purposely
avoided to include it in them, . . is the case of when,
a person having come originally of his own accord and
in the ordinary state of freedom into any such foreign
territory, occasion afterwards takes place arises then, thrown as it might
here or elsewhere, to put him into a state of imprisonment
for the purpose of justice. The extending the including in the prohibitions and formalties this necessary safeguard
was an inconvenience against into which justice and foresight good
sense
called upon the draughtsman to be upon his guard,
avoid known or not of these inconveniences, that he might not fall into it to save himself from giving birth to it. What
is certain is that he has not fallen into given birth to it: what
is seems probable is — that he was aware of it:
This all as expressed it stands is indeed expressed with great awkwardness in many places; superfluous words in abundance:
offence against grammar not often wanting: and it seems
not improbable that by it is the his anxiety to avoid giving
birth to
escape falling
into
this inconvenience that he was led into the little sort
of
ambiguity of expression, which alone could have
furnished matter a ground for the objection here discussed.
