Dispensing power

There are certain acts done which such that where a man
them down before his yes he rubs his eyes
and says to himself – is it possible? The act
in question I acknowledge to be of the number.
The fact is proved: yet what remains to be proved
is the possibility of it. That the enterprizes protrusions that
ruined the Stuart should have been revived and
revived with success under George the third. That
an enteprize which would have been like a flight
to the moon if attempted by the King order of the Sovereign, should have
been descended on without his privity by Mr John King! The very
idea is so extravagant that a few considerations observations
may not be amiss for the purpose of reducing the within
the bounds of apparent possibility, the
extravagance of it.

Absence of pressure of danger of punishment is
with men of a bad certain turn cast of mind, the
test and measure of right and wrong. No such danger
presented itself as annexed to the enterprize in question
– therefore there could be nothing wrong in it.
The danger if any would come it is from Parliament that
it would come: but what would to the persons
embarked in this enterprize, what danger could
come from Parliament. Were they not the same,
by whom the measures Parliament was in the habit of being
guided?
