with to which they have been accustomed
& to which their judgments have been insensibly
stimulated & reconciled: their silent wish+ + formed in the most secret
recesses of their heart
& scarce sensible developed
to themselves is rather to
have it perpetrated than redressed that they may now and then compliment flatter their
own sagacity by discovering now & then a
little flaw, without having it affronted by
their being mended by others.
There is as much temerity in pertinaciously
opposing defending without reason‡ ‡ a practice of which the inconveniences are acknowledged notorious or pointed out, as in attacking
without reason.
v. in – D of Letter (to ) on Libels – observations
on reporting – that the Judge might
report, & the report be signed by the others.
