the whole then] falshood whether a man be terrified
or bribed into the adoption of it, never can be a matter of indifference.
In another point of view the blow shock which is given
to the force of the moral sanction is worse in this
case than in the former. It is the sign of a worse
greater depravity of disposition to yield to when the
seducing motive is of the alluring than when it is
of the coercive kind. It is always looked upon and
with great justice as a greater more degrading imputation upon
a man to have been led to do what is
by bribery than to have been driven to it by
terror.
