Restrictive
From or any other signs
It is the nature of man one property of [a part of the constitution]
of man's nature to embrace an evil that
appears to him the less in preference to one
that appears to him the greater. If then he can
be made to believe that unless he submitts to
the any species of restraint, or indeed any other mode of punishment
that is presented to him, he will be
subject to a greater in the room of it he will
voluntarily in one sense of the word voluntary submitt
himself to the former. Threats are signs calculated
to induce a man to believe expect the approach
of evil: They are distinguishable according to
the evils which they denounce. If then the
act denounced in case of his not submitting
to an evil originally presented be greater to in appearance
than this latter, to this latter he
will submitt be made by force of [threats to] terror to submitt.
