Promulgation des Raisons. Forme. Loix.
11. Serving as a
common standard,
by means of which
laws, of different
countries, on
the same matters,
may be compared.
12. Shaming men,
by the exemplification
of the principles
of common
sense, out of the
habit of referring
to the imaginary
Law of Nature: —
a mask for the
principles of caprice
and asceticism:
a perpetual
source of false,
or rather nonsen-
sical, reasons.
13. Preserving
the Laws to which
they are annexed
from being <hi rend='underline'>changed
without reason.
A good reason
is a Sheet-
Anchor to a Law
and the stronger,
the better the
reason, it the
law. —
My dear
in with
a few more Reasons
of your
own growth.

Reasons Place.
Reasons,
accompanying
the body of the
laws, ought to be
distinguished
from the text;
but to be all
along closely connected
with it, in the
form of a perpetual
commentary.

Reason-giving
Current Practice
1 How it happens
that the practice
of giving reasons
to the laws has
been so rare.
1. Extreme difficulty
of the task.
To make laws,
requires nothing
but a will: to
give reasons
for them, requires
an understanding.
2. Total want of
a rational system
of morals,
capable of serving
as a ground work
for a rational
system of legislation. —
