1822. Sept 10 Constitut. Code
13.
Delusions not produced
by instruments of
corruption, is produced
by discourse of that
produced by discourse
without corruption
do. produced by fallacies
in debate is one case.
14.
Another is that produced
by the erroneous
conception, assenting
the extensive predominance
of strong
social affections on the
... of mankind
or country. By the
possession of power
wealth and factitious
dignity is the full benefit
of the delusive
reward: by the instructing
class who are paid
for it this error is kept
up.
15.
By these men, moral
portraits of the class
as well as of the individual
are continually
drawn more
flattering than the
do. by...
For the sake of individuals
whose associates
or ... they
are, is the species thus
overloaded. Seen to be
impossible in the whole
species, an endowment
could not be believed
actual in the individual

16.
Scarce a history or
biography which tends
not to keep minds
plunged in this error:
one way this in which
men are made duties.
That they maybe made
.
17.
In this stile, with scarce
an exception, are the
articles in obituaries.
18.
So the maxim...
... the
dead that can not
feel flattered that the
living may be deluded,
and made submitt
to be plundered and
oppressed.
19.
Less honest and invidious
than they are, are
the more powerless, unopulent
and the undignified unrepresented
Why? That being
objects of contempt,
less sympathy, may be excited
by the deputation
and oppression they are
subjected to: less antipathy
as towards their
plunderers & oppressors.
20.
More honest judicious
and effectually benevolent
than they are, and
the powerful, opulent,
and dignified
represented? Why? that under

20 contin'd
favour of the ascribed
virtues, they may enjoy
with less disturbance
the fruit of selfishness
and malevolence.
21.
As on the stage, so on
real... the fine
arts... to produce
the delusion.
Corruptive influence
with its... reproduces
the corruption
the standing on the
ground of corruption,
delusive influence,
with its... & produces
the delusion
on its own ground, it
furnishes words and
music; fallacies, words:
song of eulogy, music:
... recitative
and air: dupes join in
chorus: all who have any
of these said things forgive,
hear it to satiety, this the
...
this the...
22.
Power &c the... God
these and wisdom and
wisdom and virtue
worshipped as inseparable.
Rich and respectable made
synonymous.
1. True, because they preach
it at every article of religion
they preach.
2. ... because they practice
it as the morality
of every thing they do.
3. Sole proper standard of
all, lustre in theirs.
4. True, because they
profess it is every opinion they profess.
5. As to their real opinion,
only from their interest and
their practice can it be learnt
for of no man's mind is the
interest visible to any others.
No objection is more or less
easily than its contrary. Of
opinion, objection is of itself
no evidence: now wd. it be in
the eyes of reason, when in a country where perjury, and that notorious, is compelled by law
