DIVINES Adverse to improvement
without giving into a passion as unavailing as
[it is] unjust against the Wolf or the Fox,
anymore than the sheep or the Dovefor obeying the necessity of his nature, to then exhibit
such a firmness of disposition, as may either awe
from the first thatthem into silence activitywhich they do not oftenhave so seldom
break throughassumed for to any purposeand so much seldomer to for a
good one, or if they should assume it, to may
render it ineffectual.
For this cause I have thought it necessary to develop
the circumstances causes thatconcur to give this necessarybias
to persons circumstanced as they are, that othermen
may found the conduct recommended not on spleen
or prejudice, but on a calm Judgment founded on
obvious & incontestible considerations, pronounced
"en connoissance de cause."
