1831. Mar. 2
This is a digression – but now for the
parallel. Whatever was the cause, no target-fancier
for wreaking the vengeance of the offended
monarch upon the body of the audacious subject
presented it himself: but for applying it to themind
at that time as at all times men in countless numbers
were in readiness to concur in any shape that
the existing circumstances should give birth to in
any such acceptable service: the opportunity had
long been watched for: at length that which
seemed a favorable one presented itself: one little
inconvenience was attached to it – a sort of inconvenience
which I know not at this moment
how to describe otherwise than by a figure of
speech: no otherwise than through the sides of
Britannia whose figure you see upon a half-penny
could the wished for intended wound be inflicted on the
offending mind.
☞ Go on with the history of Panopticon.
