PUNISHMENT RAPE Castr.
It has this excellent property in a Punishment
that it appears to be greater than it is; and as since it is always from the apparent magnitude only
of a punishment, that its influence is to be measured, here is a clear gain on the
side of efficacy without any correspondent loss on the side of suffering
Men: every day undergo daily voluntarily a thousand worse punishments operations for
the sake of life: in this very one in particular.
As it's effects will be very
visible & permanent, there
is no occasion for
the operation's being
performed in
Public
which
will
cut off
the occasion
of that
commiseration
which
might
have
invert reflect
the stream
of popular
indignation
against the
Law.
Certificate to
be signed by the
Surgeon who
should perform it
together with
three 2 others.
It would be an extension
as have
& a fatal error to conclude
that this punishment
was inadequate, because
the severer punishment
of Death has since
been annexed, without
overcoming it altogether —
While
the manners
of the people
were so ,
& protector
to be
amongst
the great
for every
crime, to
say nothing
of those
other
which
were

Justice, any

The loss of eyes which accompanied it was evidently capricious
as the Author before — one law atrocious in itself well observed, superfluous & indefensible when attended by the other to say
& helpless Burthen upon the State — without over & above those superior disadvantages — thing of it's atrocity so to be insisted are it was egregiously unoeconomical, without necessite vise
