Ch. XV.
Though this effect of the measure should be foreseen

} Party effects
} on this ground
it is not in the power, even of combination conspiracy <add>strong of machination, a combination
so much as to impede itto defeat it
Limitation only, not prevention
limitation to a degree altogether without effect -
would be the utmost possible result of the most by every
[+] impressed on
every mind, and most
deeply in those
against whose machinations
it presents
an additional security

intended as a defence-
no opposition on
the part of the
Ministers to the
existing Government
could defeat
it
unanimous and most persevering combination that
could be found againstupon the measure in this ground.
and,(a) By refusing the paper, each conspirator would make
a compleat and certain sacrifice of his own personal advantage, without
the smallest chance of affording any possible<add>desirable</add> effectual help
to the common object of the conspiracy. — Limitation only, not
prevention — limitation, to a degree altogether
without effect — would be the utmost possible result
of the most unanimous and most per-severingsever
opposition on this ground.

Note comes in as p. 196
Though The being so perfectly opposition - proof is a feature
by which distinguishes the proposed mode of reduction, stands distinguished in a
very striking waydegree point of view from every other. Though this consequence
of the proposed conversion were ever so clearly
foreseen, [+] though it were even expressly announced [+] by those who
either throughfrom faction,
motives, or on the
honest ground of
personal interest
were disposed to
thwart it
by government - (as indeed virtually itcould not but would be) it
would not be in the power, even of conspiracy, so
much as to impede it. By refusing &c(a) as above as in p.3
of the copy.
