Note to Sect. II.
To be copied
note to be added at the end of Sect. ii
Montesquieu as we have seen above was happier than
our Author in fixing with precision what he meant
by a State of Nature: & determining He determines it to be, what
it must mean in every treatise on Jurisprudence,
that State which is antecedent to one entrance into
Society. He has another advantage over our Author,
he saw better than he did he had a better notion of the actions, to which
the desire of happiness imprest upon us by our Creator,
would lead us a Man in his individual unconnected
State: He was not observe observed enough to did not talk of a
man's living honestly & giving to every man his
due in such a state, because he knew that the
idea of honesty & property could not exist previous
to a State of Society: but he "La paix (says
Esprit des Loïx. Liv. I. C.II. — "he) seroit la premiere loi naturelle: une autre
"loi naturelle seroit celle qui lui inspireroit
"de chercher à se nourrir: La priere naturelle
"seroit que les Sexes se font l'une à l'autre
"seroit une troisieme loi naturelle: le desir
de vivre en Societè est la quatrieme loi naturelle."
And if any thing could with propriety
be called Law, which has not been formally
promulged, & in a manner perceptible to our
external senses these might be allowed to be
called the laws of Nature. And here the Code of
Nature must end, because here the State of
Nature must cease —
