By a the fundamental and initial arrangements of this sort thus described
the purposes very arrangement what takes took place of course
from the beginning of things, and which in the domestic tribunal
of every primate family, and which in the same tribunal as
well as every other in which the proper ends of justice are the
ends really in view will continue to be observed as long as
man is man, the purposes of the honest suitors on both sides,
the purposes of natural, genuine, substantial justice are compleatly answered, but every purpose answered, but
that of the sinister interest of the man of law. Accordingly
in both systems, and in both with almost compleat success,
it has been his object to exclude it.

Had he it to the last continued to be in his power to exclude it altogether, the distinction I am about to mention
and the terms which serve for the expression of it would have
had no place. It has not been His power has not been
compleatly commensurate to his interests and his endeavours;
and to this the deficiency the civilized world is indebted for
the distinction between regular and summary procedure.
Regular is the eulogistic epithet bestowed on that branch of
the system in which the contrivers of th it have continued
to succeed in their endeavours to exclude from it each
cause the best lights the most obvious and most essential principles
of justice.

Summary is the opposite dyslogistic epithet by which they have
stigmatized the only mode of procedure that is either conducive
or bonâ fide really directed to the professed and pretended object end: summary,
as who should say imperfect, hasty: a mode in which that
term and those means have not all of them been employed which would
have been necessary to
enable the Judge to administer the best, compleatest, purest kind of justice.
