is necessary in order to induce a man to
undergo as much labour as he can go to
undergo without prejudice to health can
be inordinately severe.

For If it were and understood and known
that a man by submitting to a limited
quantity of punishment might exempt himself
from any quantity labour at any time, he
would many would refuse to labour at all,
and by submitting to one lot of punishment
once inflicted might exempt themselves from
labour during the whole of their term.
