-fying the desires which affords him the seducing
motive, See Princ. of Legisl. Introd
Ch. [Motives]
a man shall choose the least of mischievous
of two or more offences that may [contribute
to that effect] serve for the accomplishment
of his purpose. Between these two last
branches of policy it will not in every instance
be very easy to draw the line: because whether
an act shall be to such a degree pernicious
as that it shall be clearly worth while to combat it
in the way of direct legislation and add at
[aggregate it to the catalogue of offences] mark it out for punishment is a
question point which it may not be perfectly easy
in every instance to decide upon peremptorily decidedly to ascertain. Let it
not therefore be any great matter of surprize
to the reader if he should happen to see a
class or two of acts mentioned proposed to be provided against in the present
section, which he might expect to find more think would more naturally
in the next.
