Sir

In our English law which as every body knows is the perfection
of reason, there are two or modes or forms of establishing
and granting licences. One is to say whosoever
follows the acting or performs the operation mentioned shall
every year or on every occasion as the case may be, pay
so much – say for example 3s:6d. The other is. the If
any man follows the acting or performs the operation mentioned
he shall forfeit and pay so much: say for example he
overused 3s.6. Of these two the first may be stiled
the directly licensing form: the other, the sham prohibition
form. need scarcely observe A gentleman of your
discernment will not need any suggestion from me of mine to perceive
that, with regard to the effect and the facility of
doing that which it is intended should be done, thus his
come to exactly the same : or that if there
be a difference it is the latter that is the most effectual.
I say the most effectual: because for as much as are some things
which by a certain sense of decorum grave personages such
as Right and Most Reverend Divines and Noble and
Learned Lords or other Learned Gentlemen might regard
themselves as inhibited from learning in one of those
forms, while they it appears they need not for as much
as they do not regard themselves inhibited from licensing
in the other of those same forms.
