Restraint.

loss of pleasures either of the mind or of the body & these
more or less distant & contingent near & certain, and a pain fever of
mind grounded on the apprehension of their mischief
which is present.

Simple afflictive punishments are very easy to
state and estimate; because the penal consequences
takes are of one hand, & take place immediately upon the application of the
instrument, restrictive are very difficult: because the
penal consequences are very various, and of various
degrees of uncertainty & remoteness. Simply afflictive
punishments produce pain pretty much alike
in all men persons: in every person some. Of the penal
consequences of restrictive punishment men are variously
sensible: to some of them some persons are
not sensible at all. Others And of those to which any
given man is sensible, some being such as he would
experience were it not for the as well without the punishment as
by means of it are not to be placed to the account
of punishment.

To give an analysis of the several evils which
restrictive punishment may produce, is to give
an analysis of the business of life in men of every
climate, rank & occupation.

In speaking of imprisonment in any one can never know
what account to give of it, till one knows the regimen
of the prison.
