The influence of Beccaria is apparent in Eden��s work, not only by his direct reference to it, but by his spirit of declared opposition to the actual practice of the law.

It sinks useful subjects into burthens on the community, and has always a bad effect on their morals; nor can it communicate the benefit of example, being in its nature secluded from the eye of the people.�� And again: ��Whatever exceeds simple death is mere cruelty. Every step beyond is a trace of ancient barbarity, tending only to distract the attention of the spectators and to lessen the solemnity of the example. There is no such thing as vindictive justice; the idea is shocking.��
