Meantime another form there was of which the attack
in which had the attack been conceived, the defence might
not have been equally altogether quite so triumphant. In your character

character of rep representative of the people that you are
at this moment sitting in judgment upon yourself your own dealing conduct in the
character of Judge. In your character of judge true it is
that be the grievance ever so great, it lies not within
your power to apply a remedy to it. But in your
character of legislator what is most perfectly and in
every sense in your power is to propose at least a remedy: and

of this sort would so more manifestly and notoriously be applicable?
