Ins. Pæderasty
Suppose any one were to make a meal of what
has been already eaten? I must confess, I should not be
much disposed to mess with him: If I were of a warm
and impatient temper, who knows but it is possible I might be so enraged
at the notion of his filthiness, that I might be glad to
see him hanged? Who knows but I might? the
same wish has not seldom been entertained upon no better reason:
But whether it were fit the state should indulge me in such a
wish may to be consider'd.
