49 of suitors 论求情者

many ill matters and projects are undertaken; and private suits do putrefy the public
good. many good matters are undertaken with bad minds; i mean not only corrupt minds, but crafty minds, that intend not performance. some embrace suits, which never mean to deal effectually in them; but if they see there may be life in the matter, by some other mean, they will be content to win a thank, or take a second reward, or at least to make use, in the mean time, of the suitor's hopes.
许多不良的事件及计划都有人担任,所以私人底请托是确使公益腐化的。许多很好的事情是由存坏心眼儿的人担任的,我底意思是不止败坏的心眼儿,也包括狡猾的心眼儿在内,就是那种口头担任而心中并没有实行底意思的心眼儿。有些人答应了替人办某种请托的事,心里却并没有切实去替人办事的意思;但是一旦他们看见这种事情?别人底力量而有希望成功的时候,他们就极想得到那请托者底感谢之心,要使那人相信他们真替他办过事,或者得到一部分的报酬,或者至少在这件事情还没决定的时候利用那请托者底希望。
