text_original: law prescribed, as when it is set down in plain ' ' words that he that shall do thus or thus, shall suffer so and so ; or by practice, as when the penalty, not by any law prescribed, but arbitrary from the beginning, is afterward determined by the punishment of the first delinquent ; (for natu  ral equity commands that equal transgressors be equally punished) ; there to impose a greater pe  nalty than is defined by the law, is against the law of nature.
