C Of Simple Personal Injuries
Reasons Quest. 1
1
Quest. 1. Why injuries of this sort, how trifling
so ever, are rendered punishable?
Reasons
1. Because punishment is not, in any case of this sort,
groundless. Because There is no sensation how trifling soever
but what might become intolerably vexatious
by continuance or repetition.
Because although on a given occasion the
would be next to nothing
because of the punishment being left entirely
discretionary may also be made next
to nothing.
If there were any one single thing which
a man might at any time do to your person, and be sure
not to be called to account for it, that man
by taking advantage of this license
might render your life a burthen to you, and
you would be in effect his slave: if there were
any one single thing which by you knew he might do
to you in this way, the bare apprehension
of such uneasiness the effects of such a license
although in fact he were never to take
advantage of it, might be sufficient to render
your life uncomfortable.
2.
2. Because there is no need to fear, that punishment
in any case of this sort, will rise to such a proportion as to be
unprofitable for. Because although the uneasiness produced
by the offence should on any occasion
be next to nothing, the punishment being left
entirely
