The framing of such a body of substantive law,
does it then belong really to the list catalogue of impossibilities?
To the disputant metaphysician who was denying the existence
of motion, the argument employed by the other by whom
the affirmative had been embraced, was to get up and walk.
Of the possibility of the existence of the a
rule of action in the form of a determinate set of
words the proof demonstration, is not howsoever easy it is may
be, is not quite so expeditious, the journey is of
some length: but if
it should at any rate by one traveller at least be performed.
No persuasion no bits Matter in the shape of are of bits would be necessary to give
to his fist steps; all that would be necessary would be that
of supposing the track task trodden it should not be trodden
to this purpose.
Let both commissions be filled the loss of merit rewarded filled
