How far a matter of .
Call the species of misery produced by any one
crime, in a single person x, & that produced by another, y.
Now whether x or wh y be the greater, is
matter of conjecture & opinion: but that
x + y is greater than g either x or y
alone, is matter of demonstration —
How that Require let n stand for be with the number of persons subjected
to the species of misery x, & y & let such be called n number
be supposed double in the latter case to what it is in
the first.
Now whether nx or 2 n y be the greater,
while x & y continue indeterminate is till matter of conjecture and opinion:
but that nx is in any case greater than x alone; & that
if x & y be supposed equal zzy 2ny is
greater viz: that it is double to nx, this is
matter of demonstration. In this manner it is
matter of demonstration that Robbery is worse
than Theft.
