about: and this surely if any would be a case
in which instruction should precede coercion:
and in which every degree of attention and condescension to the that
prejudices could be shewn to the sentiments of the people would be no more than
requisite. Peter the Great did a bold thing when
he undertook to despoil his subjects of their beards
Here as the utility would be more palpable

analogical conjecture in a matter so uncertainty of such variety
and such uncertainty as the humours of the people.

be a little unfortunate, that the countries in which
if adopted it would be least in danger of being abused would are
those in which it would be most difficult to
get it acquiesced in. submitted to:
