3. Another inconvenience of delay, when it is considerable
is the a painful sentiment of compassion
which in such cases it is apt sometimes to produce
in the breasts of those who happen to be witnesses
of what is suffered. The influence of the mind
dissocial affections, (it has been already observed)
as directed to any given individual object, though much
stronger than while it lasts that that of the
social, is commonly but short-lived: that of
the social affections, however weak, is
regular and persevering.+ * Ch. 11. [Dispositions] When a crime is
first brought to light, we are all exasperated
against the individual; we wish to see him punished,
we take pleasure in his punishment.
But by process of time, this our
revolution takes place in our affections: affections are brought back to their natural bias:
sentiment may be much weakened; till at indignation
length if the punishment be severe, we may
subsides: compassion takes its place: till
at length, brought over compleatly to the side of
the offender, we are more angry with displeased at with the law for
inflicting punishment, than with him for having deserved
it.
