VOLUME Degradation. L..
1) Degradation by half the proper returns one crowding one into another yet altering nothing of the substance Now would I engage (for a small fee) The fee should be a good one a farthing lackingby treating it secundum artem, by opening the propositions to one ofwhom the lack ofanother, by sprinkling in the proper expletives of tautologies, without adding or an ideaso to enfeeble and confound that admirable performance composition, that the veriest drudge in an a lawyer's office might mistake it for his own.
It was an a thought of the Alchymists a set of men who not to be accused [(to whom no of industry could be on the of their researches could be objected)] to attempt the degradation of that metal which was the grand object of their researches as a [help means of throwing some light uponto the knowledge of] its composition. And in the a same view it is, that a an excellent celebrated D' philosopher of a neighbouring nation has pro-V.S.posed an Autophilosophical as a work that might have its use.
The mode of instruction is to propose models of excellence for imitation, [another and sometimes not less useful one is to exhibit] models of de-
1pravity for avoidance.
After therefore having altered conception of what is right the it might not be instruction a cross-instruction
that would have its use
to take some other that is excellent, of it according to my of what is wrong.
