T.A. Prelud. XIV.
Mark with an Asterisk all those animadversions
on the old Act that hold good on the new one: & in
that chapter wherein the new one is consider'd,
begin with a Table exhibiting those Sections of
the new one to which there are any Such asterisked observations,
are referring to the page Section and Article.
And in the observations refer all along to the page & Section
of the New Act.
---page break---
The observations that I shall have occasion afterwards
to submitt relative to the last New Act, will be so
many reasons why according to my apprehension
it cannot stand — when if if therefore both old
& new should be upon the same footing with
regard to the being repeated, it will be allowed that
there will be the the less cumbersome will be the most fit wherein
to exemplify the plan
If this a case at least it will not be denied disputed, but
that when therefore both in this respect stand upon the same footing will be the fittest wherein to the fittest of the 2 for the purpose in exemplifying the
plan upon will be that which is least cumbersome.

I do not pretend to enter into an examination of the new Act equally
minute & with that of the old one: the
style I hop over altogether: and as to the defects
in substance, 3 or 4 dozen of the most conspicuous,
added to those pointed out alread which are transplanted <add>enhanced</add> from the
old one, may serve the turn.

As this publication is the first of it's kind,
so it will probably be the last.
If it either it produces not the effect it aims at,
nothing it is not any thing else or nothing else will of the same kind,
that can.

Neither the fatigue of writing it, nor, if I
may guess, that of reading it, is supportable
[under any other considerations] or any other
light than that of a specimen

Such A treatise on Legislative compositi would have been imperfect without
this specimen: nor would it and I
must absolutely have excluded those observations directed to the particular end of the
Instrument chosen for a Basis, which in
a publication of this nature ay be thought
not undeserving of admittance.
