Prelude.
My aim is all along The nature of the enterprise required are to pursue as near as
may be, the heading Ideas of the original: one
part of my task was therefore to find them out:
a matter which to speak plain I have not always found so
easy.
["That the accuracy of the execution is not answerable
to the number of the words"]
Short as the proposition is itself, it cannot be expected
that the proof of it should come within
a small compass.
Whatever has a fixed certain signification in common
speech has a certain signification in Laws language
but it is not every thing thatwhich has a certain
++ v.1 Morillet 348. signification in Law that has a certain
signification in common speech.+
+ in these collateral
disquisitions My design, or at least my expectation+ isbeing
much less too. more to put others more able into a affo
train of making [remarks] observation that may
be decisive [upon the several topics to which
as shall merit that
distinction they apply] than to make [offer] produce myself
any such observations myself [as shall be so.]

Whether the Law itself is ever to be relieved
from those the incumbrances of its of unnatural [present] garb

in those penetrating
spirits which are
not wanting so abundant in our
