C 5. Of Punishments In General.

17.

If a man be guilty of diverse crimes, he shall in general
Punishments
excuse not one another suffer the punishments for every one of them as far as those punishments
can by any means be inflicted on the same person. One Punishment
excuses not from another.

So also in aggravations

Reasons

As many crimes from the Punishment whereof a man
stands excused, so many he will have no motive to restrain
him from. So often as he can commit fresh crimes without
adding to the danger incurred of being apprehended for the preceding.
See Til. [Proportion between Punishments and Offences] Rule III.

18

Repitition. that when once a man has committed any offence of a certain
degree of atrocity he either cannot be punished or in general is not punished more, of whatever other offences he is guilty. This
happens either by reason of the too prodigal use of some
punishment such as death, which puts it out of the power
of the offender to undergo a prolongation or repitition of it;
or by putting in the power of individuals to choose after
he
