And all he receives is' the bare means of fubfifience and this not bellowed, unt1l he has earned it and then not in proportion to his labour nor out of regard to him, but for felfilh purpofes. This hare fupport the matter 15 not bound by law to give but' 15 left to be guided by his own interefi orx humour and hence the poor ¿ave often falls lbort of what 13 necefa fary for the comfortable fupport of the body.
