Thought
[As I sit with others at a great feast, suddenly while the music is playing]
Thought
[Of Equality — as if it harm’d me, giving others the same chances and rights as myself — as if it were not indispensable to my own rights that others possess the same]
Thought
[Of justice — as If could be any thing but the same ample law, expounded by natural judges and saviors]
Thought
[Of obedience, faith, adhesiveness]
Thought
[Of persons arrived at high positions, ceremonies, wealth, scholarships, and the like]
Thoughts
[Of ownership — as if one fit to own things could not at pleasure enter upon all, and incorporate them into himself or herself]
Thoughts
[Of public opinion]
