To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For the same reason, the chief justice is gene- tally now raised to the peerage ; so that the judges are, in every respect, independent men, as far as it is possible in thjs world to make men independent. 69 equally independent as peers in general are; but then they are not members of the legislature, with- out the voice of the people (with a few exceptions) ; therefore the balancing power, that is, the house of lords, is rendered independent of, and insulated as it \vere, from the other member...s of the state. To say that noblemen may still be gained over by court favour, or other means, is only saying, that after all they are men. It would be just as well to object to them because they are mortal, and subject to. Bodily inrirmitv ; and therefore so far like the poorest man in the kingdom. In point of political independence, every thing has been done for the peers that is practicable; and here it should be observed, that if nobility were not hereditary, that could not be the case. The nobi- lity would then be few in number, in general old men, and might have bargained with the crown be- ibre they obtained their rank ; so that whatever may be said in favour of acquired nobility, in opposition to hereditary titles, as a political institution it would not answer the same purpose.
