reputation, honour, character, good name, dishonour, shame,
disesteem, disrepute,
infamy, ignominy, disgrace, aversion and contempt. In speaking
then of a man as suffering under a punishment of the
moral sanction it may be more or less convenient according
to the occasion to use amongst others any of the following
expressions. We may say that he has forfeited his reputation,
his honour, his character, his good name; that his
fame has been tarnished; that his honour, his character, or
his reputation has received a stain, that he stands disgraced;
that he has is become infamous, that he has sunk under a
load of infamy, ignominy or disgrace; that he has fallen into disgrace, into disesteem, into disrepute; that he has incurred the ill-will the aversion, the contempt of the neighbourhood/of the public: that he is become an
object of aversion or contempt. It were the task rather of the
Lexicographer than the Jurist to exhaust this catalogue of
these expressions. Those which have been already exhibited
may be sufficient to advertise the reader of the similarity
there may be in point of sense between a variety of other
expressions of like import however dissimilar they may be in sound.
