This answer given, then let him form his estimate
of the quantity of reproach due to the the most the officer that most troublesome
of all theorists whose aim is to destroy the confidence
of the public in all public men ascribing all effects
to their unquestioned and unquestionable causes.
Destroy all confidence in all public men! as if
any useful confidence could be destroyed by holding up
to the view of politicians the A.B.C. of politics! as if
the possessors of power had not ever failed or ever could
fail to pur join all over the
world to one the pursuit of one common common end
common object one common scheme of division which is common
to them all — a division by which punishment
profit with impunity and honour is endeavoured to be heaped upon
the misdeeds by which they profit, which the monopoly of punishment and
disgrace is secured to those by from which sum
without adequate prospect of gain they apprehend
loss and sufferance to themselves.
Sir Samuel Romilly, whose want of deficiency in the requisite confidence in
public men has been so flagrantly and so repeatedly
manifested betrayed by his attempts to rob so many Honourable Gentlemen
of something trad the privilege of improving their fortunes
by legalized and established swindling let him declare
whether he has found those inflexible supports to legitimacy
styled Country Gentlemen less strenuous in their d endeavours determination
to secure to themselves the faculty of obtaining by full-pretence
money to an unlimited amount without disgorging
any part of it — less strenuous let him say whether he has found them less strenuous in these their high endeavours them in their endeavour solicitude to heap
punishment upon the heads of the audacious <add>presumptive</add> rabble who, without any such
licence as is attached to the possession of fee tail or fee simple scruple not
to ape trend in this audacious manner the example set them by their superiors.
