These objections to which a mode of punishment stands
exposed seem reducible to be undone following: those of
together under the four following heads – Humanity, decency, liberty, and Religious.
From the topic of humanity, objections may be
raised to any punishment in proportion as it is
exemplary: especially to capital punishments and
those of the afflictive kind.
The variety of capricious objections to which
each particular mode of punishment is
exposed today has no other limits than the perverse peculiarity of
of the imagination: with some slight
exceptions they will be found may however to come be ranged
under one or other of the following heads:–
liberty – decency – religion – humanity. What
I mean by a capricious objection, is an
objection which derives the whole of its apparent
value from the impression that is
apt to be made by the use of those hallowed
expressions: the caprice consists in employing
them in a perverted sense.
