Thus in the particular case above spoken of, where
where the object of the proposed law was to take awayout of
from the hands by which it is at present
exercised the arbitrary power of life and death.
ing when it is thus custom to spare it,
leaving it in the power to sacrifice it in those
cases only in which it is thus custom to take really
into consideration whether they shall or shall not
sacrifice it, of the above mentioned opinion of Lord Camden were
to be received as authority and that authority
as decisive would be to pass bestow approbation
and acceptance in the above mentioned proposed law, to apply
censure and in of the strongest terms kind to the existing
practice: to rank under in the class of tyrants all
by whom the existing practice is persevered in, and
in the class of adherents of tyrants all these by
when it has been or is defended.
