2 Where no special sinister
interest — general interest
to do right
2 Whatsoever it was not in his calculation, it was
not by some special sinister and preponderant interest rendered
upon the whole his interest to do wrong, it was his
interest to do right. Great Vast as was their power — vast,
and in the ordinary state of things irresistible and uncontrouled
by fear of punishment at any other hands from any other source than the
will of those parties the great parties own sinister interest, still the reputation
of doing right was no could not naturally be
to them in their eyes a matter of absolute indifference of which the Monarch was seen or supposed to be the author. Oppression had
every and the now and then produced insurrection against the
authority of the Monarch; oppression of which they were
seen or supposed to be the authors, might if carried on altogether without
restraint produce insurrection against theirs. In About
the time the reign of Edward the second symptoms appear of a
suspicion as having gained ground of their being conduct having
to a prevailing degree been determined by motive
little conducive to the ends of justice. In the Mesure
des Justice — a book the date of which is reference
to that reign, occurs a story of two Judges said to have
been hanged by King Alfred. The For correctness this anecdote
would make no bad match for the genuine history of Geoffrey
of Monmouth. But the language being the Law
French the writer consequently — a partaker in the sinister
interest — a portion in the form of Judge and Co it presents
no inconsiderable title to be considered as evidence
of the temper of the time — of the resentment prevalent or disposition of the people
at large by the conduct of these arbiters of their fate.
