C
Of TheftReasons
and the pleasure which it gives them is given them
not only without offence but with a profit.
To p. 25 2
paragraph
From p.35.No 2Section IIII
Why the hard labour as to so much of it aswhencewhen it extends beyond
a certain term is allowed to be commuted
into whipping an acute punishment such
as whipping?
paragraph
Reasons1. Because otherwise, in the case where the duration of the punishment might be tantamount
to perpetual. Hence would arise two inconveniences: in the first place marginal note text beyond that amount the offence would have no punishment to counter act it.
Quest. 2. In the next place the punishment might
by this means stand so high as to dispose
a man to give the preference over theft to some
offence still more mischievious; at least unless the
punishment was of all offences liable to come
into competition with this view. these inconveniences are still
more likely to take place,where an offender happens
to have committed a multitude of thefts at
different times before he is prosecuted for one.
