8. Absurd visionary
and senseless, a wild
visionary would
have been said if any
thing. Never so long
as such received in
line of argument with
its abstained form

What has been is in full pretence
will be pronounced
impracticable.

What is notoriously
salutary, subversive
of property, ,
and general happiness,
if general happiness be
deemed worth remembering
by one to whom all
happiness but that
of his own connection
is indifferent

Had any thing happened which in their judgment rendered
it necessary or advisable that this prudential course
should be departed from and that in relation to any
such proposal something should be said; "absurd
and senseless" in "wild and visionary" would of course in something
be or something of the like character and to the like effect
would of course have been in the first place the answer given to it
For never indeed so long as language of this sort is received
in lieu of argument never will language of this
sort fail of being bestowed upon exhibited in form of a tendered in the character
sufficient refutation of that to which private interest
renders men a man averse and of which alike ill conduciveness
to universal interest have been proved and can not

practice share a view ever so closely in the face, he will
not so long as he can find among them with whom he
has a disposition to say yes have any the smallest
reluctance to to it impracticable.
Let the fact of its being productive / with of none but the
most salutary consequences stare him as closely in
the face, he will not in that same state of things
find any greater difficulty in pronouncing it not only
pernicious but and utterly obstructive subversive
of rights of property subversive of the constitution
the matchless constitution — subversion of every thing
in which human happiness ofdepends: of human happiness
if haply it seems for forms sake to him invisible to take that or
any other notice of that which is reality is a of such perfect to have
as human happiness is
with the exception of that small part of humankind on whose happiness has or happens to be regarded by him as in some way or other depending.
