Probenda
ordo

once been unwise enough to step aside out of
the straight path of probity impose upon themselves,
is that of making perpetually perpetual sacrifice pro perpetually recurring
and often inevitable sacrifice of truth upon
the altar of security: and I know already by
a but too well confirmed experience, how little such sweet is the cost of
sacrifices cost to men a class of in a situation which
the law itself — the same law which is so anxious
to know bring into the blaze of day the words and
actions of all other men has in its wisdom
or in its haste inserted endued with irresponsibility
in that sense of the that too ambiguous though frequent
and important term, in which impunity is the
fruit of it.

This is the more
necessary — as any
thing will serve the
Treasury for a pretence
for breaking
their engagement
and the Law will
not compel them

For my Lord it is a feature in
the case which can not be too conspicuously or
improperly held up to view, that the man who
trust any thing — fortune character in which
character — fortune and character in which life itself
may be involved — to that department of
office of which the Treasury is at the head,
places himself from that moment in a state of
real and virtual virtual and effectual outlawry, [-] [-] throws from him cuts himself off
abjures throws off from that
abjures moment the support
of that law, which
in the voyage of
life is the best
bower every other
man's best bower, and by a bargain
still more improvident desperate than Esau: sells the Englishman's
best invaluable birth-right —not so much as for a present, but for a precarious mess
future and even precarious of pottage. Good faith is from that adventurous
moment unstrengthened, by any other human tie,
is from that said adventurous moment, his sole dependence.
Good faith, the very virtue of which as for eight
years hard experience may qualify an individual
to pronounce, is a quest unknown there stranger to that effect/the step/voice is unknown in that spot., unless on those
occasions
occasions where
routine, or favour, or the fancied
interest of the moment,
may happen are seen to bring
his in their hands.
