ie : of the Magistrate is manifestly the most
compleat — In this case the several characters
of Prosecutor Witness and Judge are

such as are by accident , are by essence united in the
allperfect judge. [in virtue of] by his essence .

presented to the judge they are thus enabled to judge from
the force sentiment of those determinatives upon themselves
and from that of their own conclusion in consequence ,
