C 13.

Of Obstinate Waste or Usurpation Destruction or Endamagement

approaches very near to the nature of Theft
or criminal clandestine (that is malicious) Waste. destruction. For although
in the most obvious sense of the phrase
he cannot be said absolutely to intend not to
be amenable to law yet it is but imperfectly
that he intends to be amenable. He intends
not in any event so to be amenable as to
render You compleat Justice. When You have
received all the Compensation which the Law
(without a provision of this sort) can render You,
you will still remain as to the greater part
of your loss in as bad a situation as if You
had suffered from a Theft. You will in fact
be in a much worse situation. For when You
have lost a thing by a theft, you will still
have the chance of detecting and punishing
the offender: here you will have no such chance.
There your presence would hang heavy upon on him.
he would look up to You with an eye of humiliation:
here his presence will hang heavy
upon You. Observations
