-parison of the magnitude of the mischief in the
each case on the part of each person of those
who are affected by it; and of the number of
the persons over whom it spreads itself who come to be involved in it . But Now then
for laying a country under water nothing more
is necessary to be known than that water will
seek a level: for reducing a town to ashes, than
that fire will burn: for committing murder
in prosecution of robbery or of any other purpose
than that a man will commonly choose often rather
to part with what he has about him
than be killed: for committing theft, than
that no man can keep a constant eye upon
every thing that belongs to him.
In another line, rape is worse than either
seduction or adultery. But rapes are more frequent
in a barbarous and lawless state of society,
seduction and adultery in a polished age.
