Nomography
In the following work, three several integrant
parts may be seen running through and pervading, the
texture of the whole: 1 Part 1. the enactive part: 1. Part 3 Instruction to the Legislator 3. Part 2
the Expositary, or say Expositive part: 4 Part 3. the Reason-giving
part, or Rationale: they may be compared to the arteries,
the veins, and the nerves, which, in a correspondently
uninterrupted association, pervade the whole texture of
the human body.
These distinguishable parts are throughout distinguished
by types of so many different forms or magnitudes: the
enactive part in the largest & instructive part in one type another type; in the size next to that, the expository part; in the least type, the Rationale in a fourth.
In some instances, in which the quantity of
matter, which seemed necessary for the sufficient development
of the chain of reasoning, by which the enactive part
was suggested, was perceived to run to such a length, as to
keep the attention too long called off from the matter belonging
to the enactive part, the several portions of matter,
the bulk of which was thus swelled to a magnitude which
was deemed inordinate, formed so many dissertations
which, being characterized, each of them, by a separate
mark of reference, are lodged altogether consigned to in an the appendix.
