B1. Ch. 5
7 Rule 4. The punishment should be
adjusted in such manner to each particular
offence that for every part of the mischief there
may be a motive to restrain the offenders
from giving birth to it

Thus for example in adjusting
the punishment for stealing a sum of money
let the magnitude of the punishment be
determined by the amount of the sum stolen.
If for stealing ten shillings an offender is
punished no more than for stealing five
the stealing of the remaining five of those
ten shillings is an offence for which there
is no punishment at all.

The last object is whatever
mischief is guarded against, to guard
against it at as cheap a rate as possible.
Therefore Rule 5. The punishment
ought in no case to be more than what
is necessary to bring it into conformity
with the rules here given. —
