Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Political Ballance, for 1754, the Mock-Patriot, for 1753, to Which Is Added, the Case of John Atherton, Bishop of Waterford in Ireland, Who Was Convicted of Bestiality With a Cow and Other Creatures, for Which He Was Hang´d at Dublin; With a Full Sir, The Rules Philosophers have laid down to estimate the real Value of Honesty, and to expose the Deformity of Vice are Generally liable to great Fallacy, therefore of little Use in Life. Vice often lurks secure beneath the Mask of Hypocrisy, and mess with undeserved Praise and Rewards; whilst Virtue remains unregarded for want of being truly known, and meet with unjust Reproach from the Misrepresentations of Malice and Envy. To remedy this Inconvenience, after much Study and Application, I have invented a Ballance for Mankind; contrived with such Art, as to examine with the greatest Exactness any Mans Talents, take the Weight of his Merit and Failings, his Virtues and Vices. That you may have a more particular Idea of its Use, I shall lay before you some Experiments, I lately made by the Help of this Machine, which I hope, will be found as useful in political, as the common Ballance is, in Mechanical and Natural Philosophy. You will not be surprized to find (as I am particularly sollicitous about the Fate of Patriotism) that I first try´d my Scales in examining the present Weight of this public Virtue.
