This Page Has Not Been Transcribed Yet ObservationsXXIV
Despairing (as with some reason they may) of a perfect
obedience they will take up with that
promise no more than to procureproduce a partial one
but such a partial one, as the event often shews
to be insufficient to answer the purposes of the Law
Whereas, as Mechanics in calculating the
effect of their Machines, always make [considerableoffer their utmost industry
employ'd in mitigating the effects of allowance abatement on the account of Inertia & others
to which their work is liable, yet fail not to make
a considerable deduction abatement on these accounts, so
ought Legislators in calculating the force of their
engines to be persuaded, that many more obstacles
will spring up to their execution than what they
can foresee, much more all they do foresee.
§ 6
Ahab hath served Baal a little: but Jehu
shall serve him much —
The following Sections of the original prepared in with the interpolations
that manner that the reader was here inserted may serve as a commentary
on this text.
As a proof that so much more than enough becomes
less I have haveinserted all along the additions
necessary to make it consistent with itself.

Nugatory Preamble
This Statute to It may not be easy to discover & to class every
distinguishable species of nugation: this Statute will furnish us with 2.
1. Recital of the possibility of an obvious mischief
meant to be prevented.
2. Recital in general terms of the existence that a certain practice is
inconvenient the possibility of an act <add>event and its imagined mischief inconvenience </add> mischief </add. superceded on ... by the very act
of prohibition. As this - 1st Recital that a franchise
meant to be prevented is mischievous Recital that it is possibleWhere something is
to be said , the ways
of saying it may
come under liberal deleted textcal-culation. But
the way of saying
nothing at all
are infinite.
§ 23
I cannot very well understand a the reason there is to be an example why Noblemen's
& Gentlemen's carriages are to be exempted from
all these regulations by being "covered" when there is none for such
as are open are not exempted.
Nor why upon the this condition of covering his carriage
a man is to be allow'd bear up the Load, with any weight
drawn by any number of horses he thinks proper.
But if he assumes those insignia of a Gentleman
uncover'd carriage how can it be that .. is a what Exempted man is to
suppose presume from that what is in the mode of it is not
for the owner's own use

contemplating it all along according to the plan adopted traced out here and there
in different parts of the instrument. Statute examples
In this view I have care has been taken not to insert any for which a precedent
is not to be met with2 in some part of it or other1

CARRIERS
Had I been able to satisfy myself concerning the
respective denominations of carriages to which the
several parts Articles of this division respectively relate
It might have been a still further would have contributed still to
to have broken it into subdivisions corresponent
to these denominations — The Law concerning the owners of of private
carriages would thus have bedeleted text made one Section: that
concerning carriages used only in Husbandry another a 2d
That concerning Public Carriages in general a 3d.

And here [it is]we we may feel at once see the advantages of a synoptic
representation: whereby & of a compacted stile,
without which indeed the framer scarely could
have place.
---page break---
By the 1st the multitude of particular propositions
of which a more general proposition is in
some way or other predicated, are together
with it, that general proposition brought under the eye at once:
By means of the 2d, the eye is enabled to fastens in the instant
on that which it is in quest of, no longer
doomed to the hideous dread? labours of picking out
one by one the significant the words significant, from the
insignificant.
