Sinecures

§. 2. A Sinecure Usefulness of a Sinecure for all the purposes that have
been found for it.
§. 2. A Sinecure is fit for no good purpose.
§.2. A Sinecure is not fit for any good purpose.

But the ingenuity of men has found out discovered no
than six reasons distinguishable purposes for which, or at the
least occasion on which sinecures have been bestowed,
and as supposed, properly bestowed: six
instances ways at any rate in which it has been supposed
to be of use, and although yet in no one of those
instances will it be altogether easy to discover
the secret: as if any in consideration of which
it has been bestowed be very easily discoverable.
The check is the number of supposed

But by the ingenuity of man no fewer
than six distinguishable considerations it will be seen have been
discovered, each of them as supposed capable of
operating in the character of a sufficient justificative
cause, justifying the bestowal of a sinecure:
These I have hunted out having been by great
labour been hunted out shall, every one of them
be presented to the reader's notice be brought under the reader's view. In each of these
instances the case itself will be plain intelligible enough,
but in each no one of them, what the service is in consideration
of which the sinecure is bestowed will be
altogether obvious, if at all discernible
not be quite so obvious.
