Any number of persons may shew the affection
in a public manner, for any person whatsoever except
where it would be an offence against Justice, provided they
do it spontaneously and peaceably and endeavour not to
compel others to join them.

In the former article the interests of Peace are provided

some measure too those of peace. It is very fit the people
should have the means of making their sentiments known
as well to persons in authority as to each other; and
that for the sake of persons in authority as well as
of people themselves. The most effectual as well as
the mildest way of preventing their doing it in an
outrageous, tumultuous and mischievous manner is
to permit them to do it in a peaceable manner. The

administration to oblige the people to stifle their affections,
with the more violence they burst break out forth at last when
their patience is exhausted.
