Indirect Legislation § 6
§ 6
— for music
for the elegances
of dress & furniture
in music: improvements the embellishments in dress or furniture: whatever
gives pleasure to the eye or to the ear contributes
for games & pastimesto this effect: even gaming that dangerous
pleasure of the imagination seems upon
the whole to be the less dangerous of the two. But
perhaps the most effectual diversion of all in
the great body of the people is [occasioned by]
— for uninebriating
liquors
the introduction of tea and unfermented liquors:
the rest serve rather to drain the source from towhence which the propensity is to derive look for it's qualification:
but these come more closely
to the point and undermine the propensity
itself. What the legislator an do in the positive
way toward favouring this revolution is
perhaps no great matter: it is of importance
however for him to be aware of the good
tendency of it that he may be cautious take care of not
impeding it how he impedes it. See Pinto
