There are pains cares where the whole mass of organical

resulting from one act] may exceed those resulting

Reasons for giving different names to this is one and general reason and the principal one why it seemed the above different kinds of Injuries. It is for this reason that it seems of use to characterize
these different classes by so many different
names. The mischiefs produced by them: being unequal,
unequal means punishments of different
degrees of magnitude seem requisite to prevent oppose to them.
Not that the distinctions between all these several classes are
of equal consequence: the grand line of distinction is
between such whereof the mischief is in its nature [of a] transient temporary,
and such whereof the mischief is on [of a] its nature
