much less against my own Utopia, I would beg that law might be banished -- 170
from within my walls. I fancy my contractor would not be sorry be as well pleased +
with its room as its company:to be rid of it: and as the same indulgence has been
granted to other persons of whose industry no great jealousy seems to
be entertained, such as Soldiers and Sailors, I have no great fear
the indulgence would be denied me. Much, I believe, is not apprehended,
in that way, from the Redcoats and Jack-Tars: and still less, I believe,
would be apprehended from my heroes.
This stumbling-block cleared away, the first thing, I
imagine, my Contractor would do, would be to set to work his good
hands: to whom he would add as many of his capable hands as
he could muster.
