NONCON.

Opinion of it's mischievousness, tho' the ostensible not
the real cause of the hard measure it meets with.
1st proof — that Persons who upon all other occasions
are insensible shew no signs of sensibility to that - to that consideration
shall be amongst the most fervous in their zeal
2d That their zeal rises in proportion against the several species of it as
those species are physically more odious: being
stronger against that which is committed with
Brutes, than against that which is committed with
the Human species: & with now the mischief to
Society is in the reverse order

NONCON SUICIDE

If it were not for this propensity they may the strength of antipathy aversion to a practise in
themselves, the measure of it's antiquity iniquity in others: we
should never have seen men maintain the superiority of his
guilt who quits life over of his own accord voluntarily himself, has who
by force precipitates out of it another. — One thing we
learn with certainty from this opinion, that if the case were to happen that
somebody in a every company must die, he who holds it would rather
the lot should fall upon any other person by he who he will than upon himself: a desire natural
& pardonable enough, but not a extraordinarily proper to found the of to a & inflexible .

NONCON.

The same persons who are furious at the
thoughts of such indulgences, in question would will read an
account like this with perfect composure;
& would proceed with all possible expedition
to make prescribe them by <add>the former</add> sanguinary Laws v. Hanway in Burn on the Poor Laws 226., while a project
tho´never so well devised for the cure of the
latter evil would lie upon the Table. of the evil as it depends upon the latter cause —
