enquirer_n concession_n three_o from_o a_o considerable_a instance_n in_o our_o own_o government_n first_o from_o the_o common_a notion_n of_o a_o trust_n for_o what_o be_v more_o general_o

trust_v natural_o imply_v a_o entire_a reliance_n upon_o the_o conduct_n and_o integrity_n of_o another_o which_o make_v we_o resign_v up_o our_o liberty_n or_o estate_n to_o his_o management_n
