13
B.1 Ch.5

Rule 10. When a punishment which in
point of quality is particularly well calculated
to answer its intention, cannot exist in less than
a certain quantity, it may sometimes be of use,
for the sake of employing it to stretch a little
beyond that quantity which, on other accounts
would be strictly necessary.

Rule 11. In particular this may be the case where
the punishment proposed is of such a nature as
to be particularly well calculated to answer the
purpose of a moral lesson.

Rule 12. In adjusting the quantum of punishment
the circumstances by which all punishment may be
rendered unprofitable ought to be attended to.

And lastly as it will not always too great a nicety in
be possible to draw usefully usefully to allow establishing proportions between punishment and
to the establishment and crime would tend to defeat its own object,
by rendering the whole matter too complex
we may add.

Rule 13. Among provisions designed to
perfect the proportion between punishments
and offences if any occur which by their
own particular good effects would not make
up for they they the harm they would do by adding
to the intricacy of the Code, they should be omitted.
