Think not, my Lord that for the purpose of
this or any other argument I mean to confound
what it is but too natural and too common
to confound in legal arguments ideas so unhappily distinct
as those of utility and law: abstract utility and that which, were it unburthened
actually existing law would be most consonant to utility — and that which <add>actually is established
vs. Law. How in [No, my Lord: how wide clear, the distinction
is but too well known to one] What I
mean to say is that on this occasion, as under unquestionably
on many occasions, so it happens that what
is consonant to utility is also — nay (and
I am happy to be able to say) and for that any reason —
is consonant to law. The constitution foundation of this
happily most unexampled Colony is not less repugnant to the
****known, fundamental established law of the land
it is to good faith, humanity, justice. It
would have been so, had the had a constitution
and constitution given to it with consent
of the unlimited . Lordship has
some my Lord
How much more so under a constitution formed
this without this consent: formed for the
for the very of
a universal and .
But it is for to be , Magna
Charta heard to speak for me and Lord speak for
Magna Charta,
