Introductory Observations

it committs nobody: it binds nobody: it gives trouble to nobody: I mean,
to nobody worth thinking about: it is the experimentum
in animâ vili, and in animâ volente, that will
not shrink from it.

I say in animâ vili: for it is under the conceiving it out of
persuasion doubt, that in all these minute respects the responsibility
would rest on the evident Author and
penner of the Bill, and not on the Patrons of it
either in the Cabinet or in the House; I have and it is
under that persuasion only, that I have taken a degree of liberty, which I should have

thing that differs in any respect from what is most usual,
depends, as upon a condition sine qua non, upon
its being pronounced found deemed so much the better for use.
