NONC. Sums pro & con.
All that I can pretend to do for the Reader,
is to endeavour to bring at
together both on the
one side & on the other, all the items in the
account. The amount of each, it is for each
one to compute for himself. & there probably
will not be much agreement in this computation.
On the one side
Misery 1st of being detained 2d of apprehension of Punishment justly 3dly of Punishment suffered justly — own this but a trifle. 4th of Punishment apprehended unjustly — this considerable. 5. of Punishment suffered unjustly. This but a trifle
On the other side. 1. Problematical detriment to Population. 2. Mortification of the People at receiving its prevalence of discontent of Punishment.
being suspended. — Then if really detrim.l to Popul.n
if ye difference not suppliable by gentler means.
Jus trium liberorum — engrossing of small favours.
I leave to others to decide from the principle [of Duty
that obedience is compellable as a matter of Duty & c]
"a principle which it is probable the humane &
eleggant Author of the works from which I quote would
retract on maturer consideration would retract
