[Our Authors salvo of —"unless the owner shall
"commit some act, which amounts to a forfeiture"
— will stand him in no stead. -For
clearly according to our Author's principles,
the superior Laws, which invest men with there
natural Law Rights, are solely & exclusively
to decide what amounts to a forfeiture. If
not, if the inferior legislature is to decide this
what amounts to a forfeiture
his argument will then amount only to this, at last come out thus:
at last dwindle <add>away to this: —</add>
that no human legislature can abridge
or destroy our natural rights, without
abridging or destroying theirs. A man
need not be called to the Bench in order to
might have discovered this much without make
this important discovery. Nor would
twenty such discoveries as this deserve even
a Serjeant's , or even a doctor's degree at
Padua.
[The second consequence, which would follow
from our Author's positions, is, that this
same malum in se is q whatever it
be, is generated & communicated by the
prohibition of the superior, that is medicine
or Natural Legislature. Our Author is
at his old dogma again: that God "the Creator might
"have commanded prescribed whatever Laws he
"pleased
