Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Discourse on the Study of the Law of Nature and Nations, Vol. 1
I have not been deterred by some petty incon gruity of metaphor from quoting this noble sentence. Mr. Hume had, perhaps, this sentence in his recol. Lection, when he wrote a remarkable passage of his works. See Hume's Essays, vol. Ii. P. 352. Ed. Lond. 1788.
