to you at to the expense prejudice of all your fellow subjects,

To p. 5. par. 2.


The liberty of the
press the most effectual
but the
most difficult to establish

From p. 5. last paragraph.

Of these [those] expedients institutions the first is by far the
most effectual and but the most difficult for a
Sovereign to persuade himself to put in practise
For a an absolute Sovereign more expecially for an absolute government sovereign to put it in practise, and to
persevere in maintaining it to the last in spite
of the continual provocations he will have to
put an end to it, is perhaps the last and most
difficult exercise of heroic virtue.

Receiving petitions
and giving audiences
also will at any rate
be of use.

The other two will be useful as a supplement,
and at the worst as a succedaneum
to the former. It will doubtless be more satisfactory
to the subject to know that he may have obtain
a certainty of having his complaints or desires
attended to by the Sovereign himself, than merely to know
that he may have has that imperfect chance of
being attended to which the publication of them
can afford to them.



To p. 9. par. 2.
