To the English Monarch, to the English Borough-holding Lord to the English Borough-holding Squire, the greatest happiness of the horse by which his equipage is drawn forms not any part of the direct objects of his pursuit he cares not at the expence of what agency on the part of the beast the enjoyment derived from the briskness of the motion is extracted. But to the production of the desired briskness /the enjoyment/ full and regular feeding together with other pleasures /not to speak of other comforts/ are necessary: the interests of the irrational and enslaved animal is thus to a certain degree associated with that of the rational and enslaving one. In /Exactly in/ the same way as between the two rational animals, the enslaving and the enslaved are the interests of the enslaved animal associated with those of the enslaving animal, and accordingly provided for. Between the cases of the two enslaved animals one difference however has place: and by this difference the case of the rational enslaved animal is placed under a manifest and no inconsiderable disadvantage /disadvantage, nor that an inconsiderable one/ The enslaved irrational animal is seldom an object of hatred to the enslaving animal nor ever of any such hatred as is constant persevering, inveterate and unassuageable: nor yet an object of disgust and contempt. But to that same enslaving animal the irrational enslaved animal is an object not only of hated, constant, persevering, inveterate and unassuageable but moreover of disgust and contempt.
