Law Amendments Pannomian or Nomography
§. Rules. Axioms – Principle
Correspondent to every rule you may have a
principle: correspondent to every principle you may
have a rule – or say at no.
Of these two a rule is the object which
requires first to be taken into consideration and presented
to view. Why? Because it is only by means
of a rule that any case ma moving force can be applied
to the active faculty, or any guide to the intellectual
Aany mandate can be issued – any instruction
conveyed. A rule is a proposition: an entire
proposition: a principle is but a term. True it is – that By a
principle instruction may be conveyed. Conveyed, Yes.
But how? No otherwise than by through the medium of some a
proposition – the corresponding proposition; the proposition
which it has the effect of presenting to
the mind. Of presenting? Yes: and we may add
and that is to say of bringing back: for, only in so far as the
rule has been at the time in question or some anterior
time present to the mind can any instruction – any
clear idea be presented to the mind by a principle.
A principle therefore is a sort of as it were an abridgment of the
corresponding principle: in the compass of a single term
it convey serves to convey for some particular present use to a mind already in possession of the
rule, the essence of it: it is to the rule, what the
essential oil is to the plant from which it is distilled.
So it does but answer this purpose, its uses are
great and indisputable.
1. It saves words, and thereby time.
2. By consisting of nothing more than a single term,
and that term a noun substantive it presents an object which by an apt assortment of other words
is capable of upon occasion, capable of being made up into another proposition proposition.
