C
Of Theft or Stealing
From p. 9
[{} If any one &c] Otherwise thus -
For theft the punishment shall be as follows:
1. Penance more or less public. This at all events.
2. Penitential Imprisonment for not longer than
four weeks. This at discretion.
3. Confinement to hard-labour for three months
certain: and besides that for the space of a day
for every six-pence of the value of the thing
stolen.
The advantage of this formulary seems to
be more apparent in the present example and
than in the a former given under Tit. [Simp.
Personal Injuries.]

From p. 39
Question 1
Why hard labour is made an article in this
punishment for theft?
Reasons
For the sake of analogy, See Introd. Tit [Properties]
or the Idleness or the love of case is most consistently the motive
by which men are led to the commission
of this offence. This and pecuniary interest or
as it may here be called avarice covetousness are almost
the only motives from which it ever takes its rise.
It may be ascribed to avarice idleness idleness when, a
man could have got the thing in question by his
industry if he had chosen to exert it: to covetousness when
