Another mechanical help to perspicuity, to which many legal

writings are unprovided with are Breaks.

By Breaks every one understands to be meant the discontinu

ance of the line of letter press in a certain stage of the discourse

for instance at the termination of the sentence.

These one sees are no more than quick notices given to the eye

of the assistances provided for the attention.

Breaks in the printing suppose breaks in the discourse

Early printers used no breaks.

Lawyers make the page one words, as they make the Term one

day: as if pleased with usurping the same dominion over

space, which they pretend to over time.

Difficult to say in what cases there always shall be a break

. . Perhaps there should not ever where the sentence

is not compleat within itself - as where the Nominative case

is a Pronoun.

Contros. Stat. as a discourse. Mechanical Expression. |BTL|4| | Helps to. Breaks.
