Here retrenchment
is the proper provisional
conclusion unless in an case instance
insufficiency can
be found, in the
other case the allotment
is superfluous
viz. by the amount of
the difference.
As often as this is the case, superfluity is the
imperfection, the realization of which will most naturally
have place, retrenchment the most remedy which is
most simple, most obvious, most natural, and mostly
likely to prove be found the proper one.
The greater and the lesser and the lesser greater allotment
both of them you have been in the habit,
for such a length of time been in the habit, of making applying
to the same purpose. The Lesser In all this time, the
lesser you have not has not been found too small: if it had
been, neither interest nor consequently inclination, nor
power has been wanting to the making it greater additions to it.
If indeed any reason shall have been can be produced
shewing it to be insufficient, produce the reason, and
if deemed sufficient, let augmentation, in the degree
prescribed by the reason, have take place accordingly:
but if no reason be given, then it is that retrenchment
is not only the most simple but the only
proper, course.
