X8* child that reverence that is due to the parent, if fuch indecent fami- liarities were admitted : and there Jeems to be the fame natural rea- fon which exifts in the brute creation, that it is neceflary to crofs the drain, to continue the fpecies compleat : for there may be the fame tone and figure of blood, and a firailar conformation of veflels, between near relations, which would render their iilue torpid and inactive. While a new mixture of others of the fame kind, where there is a diffe...rent figure and motion of the blood and fpirits, may add a new vigor, and ability to the animal cecononry. The prohibition of marriage among collateral relations, extends to the third degree, and tho the reafon be not the fame, as among lineal relations, yet the law is founded in good policy. The mar- riage of brothers and fitters, who mud be educated together, and of uncles and aunts, with nephews and neices, who from the near- nefs of their relation muft be familiar with each other, would open the door for fuch frequent and convenient opportunity for every fpecies of lewdnefs and debauchery, that a univerfal corruption and depravity of manners would follow, and chaftity and inno- cence be banifhed the world.
