as comprizing constituting when put together a the compleat foundation <add>of</add>
of for this division branch of moral science, will fail of answering its such this intention,
if it be either incompleat or redundant: viz: incompleat if any article

a confirmation of the truth and utility of the system, an assistance and
relief to the conception and memory of him who takes it under .
