Preliminary
Observations

Vexation to
accrue

In contemplating the several occupations which
for one reason or another had presented themselves
as proper to be included in the proposed licencing system
for the purposes of Police, it was impossible either for
the original Author of the System or for the Drawer
of the present Bill whose assistance for that purpose
he had engaged to be insensible to the occasions and opportunities
which from time to time presented themselves of
which the same subject matter was appeared so frequently
to suggest for the deriving from the same subject
neither an accession in one way or another to the
Revenue. The writing idea of <add> of these two designs presented appeared
itself throughout as being uniformly attuned with one very
compleat considerable and prominent head of advantage recommendation: viz
that of purchasing at the expence of one and the
same mass of vexation of the expression may
be allowed, two separate and independent masses benefits of
advantage: so that in short under favour of
this combination of views are of two very good
and necessary things might each of which could
not be obtained, if arrived at alone without a
very considerable degree of vexation might thus be
obtained gratis and without the payment of any
such price. Vexation, more or less, vexation
(it would be in vain to attempt disassembling it) is
the constant and unavoidable concomitant and result,
of every of just operation of government, at least of
very act of legislation in which coercion is employed:
a given quantity of vexation being necessary to the attainment
of a given object of legislation which is itself
necessary
