Of Confinement

From p. 21.

Instructions to the Judge

The hardships which are apt to result from
the strangeness of the place to which a man
is confined seem principally to be as follows:

1. The being transferred from the rural scenes
to which he has been accustomed, to other rural scenes
less agreable: from a cultivated country more
cultivated to a country less cultivated: from a country
more inhabited to a country less inhabited: as
well in respect of other animals as of men.
Thus if an inhabitant of any of the populous & pleasant
parts of Europe were banished for instance to
Lapland instead of being amused with by a
continually diversified assemblage of animal and
vegetable productions of all sorts, he would see
nothing but one stupid race of men the Laplanders:
one sort of animals the rein-deer, and
one or two sorts of trees: if he were banished
to certain islands about Newfoundland, the scene
might be still more less diversified: he might would
have no trees nor vegetable productions worth
regarding to look at: and for animals he would
have none but the fish he might might chance to catch for his subsistence
