Parly Reform Sinecures
Upon the whole, in the line of argument thus
taken and pursued I concern myself hope and trust not only that to be not
only in so far as it is possible for security safety can be predicated of any man that
publishes I am secure against penal inflictions, but
that was the scene of action, instead of the that House which
little room in which I am writing, were the scene of action that House
which in the imagination picture drawn of it by
certain heated imaginations has one lately been deviated
cut down into a room, I should be perfectly in
order. True it is that No person certain is indeed to be spoken of
or considered as liable to have his conduct influenced
by that sort of motive, viz. personal interest in its
different shapes, by which man in general is in all
ordinary cases governed, and on the general predominance
of which the continuance life of the every each individual,
and the continuance of the species, depends: any
to the prejudice of any person certain, any supposition of to any such effect would be out of order.
But in the case of as against towards or even against an individuum vagum tongues
and even pens are free: any person not being a
person certain – any person not being yet in esse –
may be supposed to be "as other men are". And
for the purpose of the present argument this is
all I want.
