Note
1st. Not an Act of pure hostility: for it was on account of some
Act that had been done; viz. the imprisoning of Mr. Wilkes.
2. Not an Act of compulsion, for it was not designed as a
means of compelling him to do any thing. The Act of taking money
from a man may acquire another Act, that is an Act of Compulsion
to be exercised on him in order to make him part
with it, such as an Act of Imprisonment for example or whipping
but being done at once cannot serve to compel a man
to do any other act. For if done at all it is done instantaneously
it ceases of itself and cannot be protracted so as to be made
to cease only at a future given instant.
