Review of Humphreys
Emandenda miscellæ
(3 § Real and Personal
This These things considered, for my own part, on every occasion<lb/.I discard the attributions real and personal as applied
to a subject matter of property altogether: employing good reason why: were I to employ
them I sh never should I have myself exactly what I was<lb?>saying: what assurance could I have of any adequate
that a reader would have any clear conception of my own
meaning that I had have</add. myself. On the Take now the words
<del. immovable and moveable. These in hand, at every
step I see my way clear as I go: and <add>of every person
to whom the distinction between rest and motion is not unknown
will I stand assured, be without effort or difficulty or
effort be at every step able to follow me.
If there be any sort of person to whose mind the
appellation immovable and moveable doubts,
it will be the lawyer. To the mind of the boy who blacks
his shoes no such doubts, no doubts in any shape,
would be presented to him. but this is not the only part
of the field in which the shoeblack is beyond further advanced than his
learned master on the path of knowledge: between false learning
and true learning simple ignorance is the half-way
house: and the mind of the shoeblack is by so much nearer<lb?>to the truth than that of his learned master is.
