What followed? For some time, plunderers went on an heretofore: before: unaccustomed
unused to look for opposition but from the natural
guardians of the spoils they ravished, they were surprized could not bring themselves
to exact a new set of enemies in men against whom they had never turned their arms. But the vigilance of the ministers of the Will of
Paris was not to be baffled: eluded by their hands many paid the forfeit
of their rapacity: By degrees, the unjust as they found reading
in their own distinction the sure consequence of their
guilt, desisted from the injustice: enterprizes the spirit of
peace & industry diffused itself for among the people:
& Egypt to that happiness has settled into that tranquillity which you see it
now enjoy. How know you knowest thou this, O Chemmis?
whence heard heardest it you thou? From my Father Menes
O Philonimus — his father was .x: x was the
son of y: y was one of the sages whom who met Osiris
called together in the temple of the Sun.
But how is it at Athens, O Philonomus —
O Chemmis — It was but the other day as yesterday that the
same necessity taught us the same wisdom.
What Osiris was to you Theseus has been to us.
By a Law of which In an assembly of the Athenians Theseus spake the Law taking robbers with us now,
meet with the same doom. How Whence knowest
thou , at wert thou Thou wert then there present O Philonimus
Not so Chemmis
That plates Tables hangeth up in the temple of Minerva:
See you Seest thou here this Wax? from the Tis from letters on that Tablet
that these characters were drawn.
From this imaginary Dialogue, the design of
which is nothing more than to render more visible
the course by which the internal silent & fleeting act of man's
volition come to fix lodge itself ally itself to and become fix itself
by a visible object a sensible & permanent object
Putting the Symbol of the words expressing [expression of] the Law, for
the Law itself, we may speak of it as a thing
existing: as a thing that may be seen and handled.
We are now entitled to speak of a Law as a something
really existing, without danger of being misunderstood.
