1. First end. Example
The Scene of penal action is is in the vicinity of
the metropolis; the spot in which the largest number
of people are collected together, an in especially

is principally designed. The appearance of the
building, the singularity of its shape, the walls
and motes with which it is surrounded, the
guard stationed at the gates, all this is calculated to

strict regimen: the most atrocious malefactors distinguished
by a particular deg dress indicating the
nature of their crime offence. To the greater proportion
of spectators what scene could be more instructive!
What a source of conversation, of allusion, of domestic
instruction, of useful narration! Upon such an
occasion what comparison can be more natural than

a state of innocence with the rigours of coercion &
captivity. Notwithstanding this the al, is less than
the apparent punishment: spectators who have

of the Prisoners. The punishment is visible, and
is naturally exaggerated by the imagination: the mitigation
