§. Lawyers' interest sinister
In this sheet to right placed.
Of every other class of man it is constantly and
universally expected, that taken in a body the lump will
their conduct will (their discourse included) will
be in a state of constant conformity and subserviency
to their own interest, that is to what upon the whole
is all things considered regarded by them as their interest.
Upon this supposition proceed all laws.
It is only in so far as they it is expected of them that they will operate upon a mans
man's interest that it is expected of them that they
will be productive of any effect]

(Well, but on one
equally irrational
exception) in the case
of every other body
of men, general expectation
is that their
conduct and language
shall be generally
directed by their own
interest i.e. by
their own view of
it.
If there be were any reason for expecting that in
the instance of the man of law personal interest
should operate with less efficiency than in the case
of another man it would rest upon with them to produce
it, it would be worth their while to produce
it.
If in the case of the man of law there were any
reason for expecting that, in the delivery of what is delivered
by him as his opinion, there would insincerity
would less probable than in the case of any other sort
of man, this too it would rest with him, this too
it would be worth his while, to declare. Strong and
obvious reasons may might be adduced why it is more probable,
none why it should be less.

In the case of lawyers
the ground of their
persuasion is so far
from being weaker
is stronger, than
in any other
