1727. CONSTITUTIONS (American), Best of all Constitutions.—
The worst of the
American constitutions is better than the best
which ever existed before in any other
country, and they are wonderfully perfect
for a first essay. Yet, every human essay
must have defects.—
To T. M. Randolph. Washington ed. ii, 175.
